  解析:A 细节理解题。由BUSES 部分的be waiting at Fenton to take walkers back to Weldown以及文中所给路线图可知,十公里走和二十公里走的路线均是从Weldown出发,在Fenton结束。

  Imagine walking through the park on a sunny day. You look up to see a spider twice the size of your head. It looks so real that it seems to be moving down its web toward you.

  Before you scream and run away, look closer. That 50­pound spider is a wood sculpture, made by artist David Rogers. It is one of 14 bugs(虫子) David has on display in parks and gardens around the United States.

  As a child, David did not get the best grades. He was not even the best painter. But he loved to make things. Using only sticks and string(绳), he would build tiny villages small enough for an insect.One day when he was older, he saw a bent tree that reminded him of the backbone of an animal.

By joining together old car parts, he made a housefly and a dragonfly.

Does this sound like fun to you? Good news-David believes there's an artist in everyone. Of course, you probably won't start out by making a 25­foot ant. It took
