It is in Hualien on the east coast. Many people visit Taroko every year. They come to see the tall mountains and the blue river. The gorge is famous around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The walls of the gorge are made of <strong>marble<\/strong>. Marble is a special kind of white and grey rock. The river cut through the rock for millions of years. This made the deep and <strong>narrow<\/strong> gorge we see today. The water is a bright blue-green color.<\/p>\n<p>There are many fun things to do at Taroko Gorge. You can walk on small <strong>\ud2b8\ub808\uc77c<\/strong> by the river. You can cross long bridges high above the water. You can also visit a small temple on the mountain. Some trails go through dark <strong>tunnels<\/strong> in the rock.<\/p>\n<p>The weather at Taroko can change fast. In summer, it is hot and rainy. Strong rains can cause rocks to fall from the cliffs. Visitors must wear a hard hat for safety. In winter, the air is cool and the sky is clear.<\/p>\n<p>Many animals live in the gorge. You can see monkeys, butterflies, and many kinds of birds. The Truku people are <strong>native<\/strong> to this area. They lived here for a long time before the park opened. Today, you can learn about their culture at the visitor center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A. \uc5b4\ud718<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;gap:24px;margin-bottom:18px;\">\n<ol style=\"flex:0 0 35%;list-style:decimal inside;line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>gorge ____<\/li>\n<li>marble ____<\/li>\n<li>narrow ____<\/li>\n<li>trails ____<\/li>\n<li>tunnels ____<\/li>\n<li>cliffs ____<\/li>\n<li>native ____<\/li>\n<li>visitors ____<\/li>\n<li>temple ____<\/li>\n<li>culture ____<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul style=\"flex:1;list-style:none;padding:0;line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>a. deep, narrow valley with steep rocky sides<\/li>\n<li>b. way of life, food, and traditions of a group of people<\/li>\n<li>c. high, steep walls of rock, often near water<\/li>\n<li>d. people who come to see a place for a short time<\/li>\n<li>e. long holes cut through rock or under the ground<\/li>\n<li>f. born in or first living in a certain place<\/li>\n<li>g. hard white or grey stone used for buildings and art<\/li>\n<li>h. small distance from one side to the other; not wide<\/li>\n<li>i. special building where people pray<\/li>\n<li>j. small paths for walking through nature<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<figure style=\"margin:32px 0 24px;border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden;line-height:0;\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1594624198301-bf7dcc271fd2?crop=entropy&#038;cs=tinysrgb&#038;fit=max&#038;fm=jpg&#038;ixid=M3w4NzQ5MjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwyfHxUYXJva28lMjBHb3JnZSUyMFRhaXdhbiUyMG1hcmJsZSUyMGNsaWZmc3xlbnwwfDB8fHwxNzgxNjI5MjM2fDA&#038;ixlib=rb-4.1.0&#038;q=80&#038;w=1080\" alt=\"Taroko Gorge worksheet\" style=\"width:100%;height:300px;object-fit:cover;display:block;\"><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<h2>B. \ucc38 \ub610\ub294 \uac70\uc9d3<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>____ &nbsp; Taroko Gorge is on the east coast of Taiwan.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The walls of the gorge are made of wood.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The river in Taroko Gorge is blue-green.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Visitors must wear a hard hat for safety.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Taroko Gorge is in the center of Taiwan.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Some trails go through tunnels in the rock.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The weather is always cold and dry at Taroko.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The Truku people are native to this area.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; No animals live in the gorge.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; You can see a small temple on the mountain.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>C. \ube48\uce78\uc744 \ucc44\uc6b0\uc138\uc694<\/h2>\n<div style=\"background:#f0f0f0;padding:10px 14px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:14px;\">\n<strong>\ub2e8\uc5b4 \ubaa9\ub85d:<\/strong> marble, narrow, trails, tunnels, native, cliffs, visitors, temple\n<\/div>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>The walls of Taroko Gorge are made of white and grey ___.<\/li>\n<li>People can walk on small ___ by the river.<\/li>\n<li>Some paths go through dark ___ in the rock.<\/li>\n<li>The Truku people are ___ to this area of Taiwan.<\/li>\n<li>The gorge is deep and ___ between the tall mountains.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>D. \uc774\ud574\ub825 \uc9c8\ubb38<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>Where is Taroko Gorge located?<\/li>\n<li>Why must visitors wear a hard hat?<\/li>\n<li>What are three things you can do at Taroko Gorge?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>E. \ud1a0\ub860 \uc9c8\ubb38<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>Would you like to visit Taroko Gorge?
