(23-24高一上·湖南长沙·期末)Thailand’s four train journeys
If you’ re not in a rush, you can take trains to travel around Thailand. Here are the four best train journeys in the country.
Ha Line
Start: Tho; End: Sat Sam
Start at Tho Wong Y train station, just across the Co P River from Bangkok. From the window, you can see homes, shops, palm trees and rice fields. The farmland disappears as you enter Sam San. After getting off and walking through a busy fresh market, you’ ll reach a harbor(港口).
Death Railway
Start: Tho; End: Nam T
Built in the 1940s, the Death Railway is Thailand’s most famous and historic train line. A total of 688 bridges were built along the route(路线). The trains that run on the Death Railway are 3rd- class, meaning they have no air- conditioners and mostly wooden benches. It’s a tourist line, so there’ re stops for short visits to historical sites and a eave.
Beach Train
Start: Bangkok; End:Ha H
This route skirts around the Gulf of Thailand. Your destination, Ha H, is Thailand’s original beach resort(旅游胜地). The central attraction of the route is Ha H red- and- white train station, which was built in 1926. The train is largely responsible for Ha H wealth; therefore, the station is a major source of pride.
Train to Laos
Start: Bangkok; End: Thang
Starting from Bangkok in the afternoon, this route crosses the Mekong River into Laos. In the morning, with warm sunlight streaming into your bed, you’ ll pass by the charming tiny villages and seemingly endless use fields. After a stop in Nong K, you’ ll cross the so- called Friendship Bridge to Laos.
1.What can’ be learned about the Death Railway?
A.It is the most famous and modern line in Thailand.
B.Its trains are 3rd- class with all wooden benches.

【答案】1.A 2.B 3.C
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了泰国的四条火车旅行路线。
1.细节理解题。根据文章Death Railway部分中“Built in the 1940s, the Death Railway is Thailand’s most famous and historic train line. A total of 688 bridges were built along the route(路线). The trains that run on the Death Railway are 3rd- class, meaning they have no air- conditioners and mostly wooden benches. It’s a tourist line, so there’ re stops for short visits to historical sites and a eave.(死亡铁路建于20世纪40年代,是泰国最著名、最具历史意义的铁路线。沿途共修建了688座桥梁(路线)。在死亡铁路上运行的火车是三等舱,也就是说他们没有空调,大多是木凳。这是一条旅游线路,所以会有短暂参观历史遗迹和休息的站点。)”可知,关于死亡铁路我们了解到的是它的火车是三等车厢,全是木凳,沿途你可以欣赏到优美的自然风光,有短暂参观历史遗迹和休息的站点,所以A选项“这是泰国最著名、最现代的线路。”不符合题意。故选A项。
2.推理判断题。根据文章Death Railway部分中“Built in the 1940s, the Death Railway is Thailand’s most famous and historic train line.(死亡铁路建于20世纪40年代,是泰国最著名、最具历史意义的铁路线。)”和Beach Train部分中“The central attraction of the route is Ha H red- and- white train station, which was built in 1926.(这条路线的中心景点是建于1926年的哈哈红白火车站。)”可知,死亡铁路和海滩火车这两条线路的共同之处是它们可以给你一种历史感。故选B项。
3.细节理解题。根据文章Beach Train可知,“Your destination, Ha H, is Thailand’s original beach resort(旅游胜地).(你的目的地,Ha H.是泰国最原始的海滩度假胜地)”。可知,海滩列车的目的地是Ha H.。故选C项。

(23-24高一上·山东青岛·期末)Dear Crystal,
I’m sorry to hear that life is getting you down right now ... I’m not sure there’s any specific advice I can give to cheer you up. It’s sometimes quite annoying to be reminded how much people love you when you don’t love yourself that much.
I’ve found that it’s of some help to compare one’s moods(情绪)about the world to the weather. Here are some obvious things about the weather:
It’s real.
If it’s dark and rainy, it really is.
It isn’t under one’s control as to when the rain stops, but it will stop one day.
You can’t change it by wishing it away.
It really is the same with one’s moods.The wrong approach is to believe that they are illusions(幻想). Panic, anxiety and anger are as real as weather.
But they will pass; they really will.
In the same way that one has to accept the weather, one has to accept how one feels about life. “Today’s a bad day” is a perfect approach.“Hey-ho, it’s raining inside; it isn’t my mistake, and there’s nothing I can do about it. But when the sun comes out, I shall take full advantage.”
I don’t know if any of that is of any use... I just hope this brings you a little more pleasure and purpose in life.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Stephen Fry

(23-24高一上·山东青岛·期末)Dear Crystal,
I’m sorry to hear that life is getting you down right now ... I’m not sure there’s any specific advice I can give to cheer you up. It’s sometimes quite annoying to be reminded how much people love you when you don’t love yourself that much.
I’ve found that it’s of some help to compare one’s moods(情绪)about the world to the weather. Here are some obvious things about the weather:
It’s real.
If it’s dark and rainy, it really is.
It isn’t under one’s control as to when the rain stops, but it will stop one day.
You can’t change it by wishing it away.
It really is the same with one’s moods.The wrong approach is to believe that they are illusions(幻想). Panic, anxiety and anger are as real as weather.
But they will pass; they really will.
In the same way that one has to accept the weather, one has to accept how one feels about life. “Today’s a bad day” is a perfect approach.“Hey-ho, it’s raining inside; it isn’t my mistake, and there’s nothing I can do about it. But when the sun comes out, I shall take full advantage.”
I don’t know if any of that is of any use... I just hope this brings you a little more pleasure and purpose in life.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Stephen Fry
