My Favorite Travel Books
Matthew Karsten has been traveling around the world for nine years now, and it all started after he was inspired by reading some useful travel books. Here is his personal list of the best reads.
Travels With a Donkey in the Cévennes
Robert Stevenson
It is one of the first travel books I have read, which takes me on a walking journey with Robert and his donkey (驴) Mosestine across a mountainous region of France.

World Walk

The Cat Who Went to Paris
Peter Gethers
For someone who expects to experience life-changing wonders that await abroad, there’s perhaps no better resource (资源) than The Cat Who Went to Paris. Peter Gethers’ global journey with a cat named Norton puts a note of humor into many common travel situations.

David Grant and Yvonne Faulkner-Grant of Warwickshire, England always let their 13-year-old dog, Scruff, pick up the plastic bottles he finds while out on their daily walks. The dog carries the bottle for a while, and they kick it or throw it for him to chase. The game is over when Scruff loses interest and drops it.
Throughout 2021, David and Yvonne observed Scruff’s habit of finding even the most well-hidden bottles. They also noticed a marked increase in the amount of litter in their rural area. David says they were both taught never to drop their trash as children, so they couldn’t believe that people were littering so much. At the start of 2022, David and Yvonne decided to start picking up the bottles to bring home with them. It was the large number of litter that made them decide to train Scruff to gather other people’s trash.
Since starting this journey, Scruff has become a local celebrity in his neighborhood. David and Yvonne never let Scruff pick up anything dangerous, like glass. They also remain appalled by the amount of litter they’re seeing, and hope that people will hear Scruff story and either stop dropping trash or, perhaps, try picking it up themselves. Plus, Yvonne thinks Scruff took to his duties so well, other dogs could easily be trained to do what he does as well.
In the end, Scruff was able to gather up 1,334 bottles — along with three cups, a Pringles tub, and a baby feeding bottle. “If we walk the same route (路线) every day, he will find bottles on that route every single day.” said David. “We feel a bit of pride that we are picking them up, but a bit of anger that they’re even there,” Yvonne said.
24. In which situation will the game be over?
A. Scruff gathers 100 bottles. B. Scruff throws the bottle into the bin.
C. Scruff drops the plastic bottle. D. David Grant sells the bottle for money.
25. What were David and Yvonne taught from their childhood?
A. Don’t drop litter everywhere. B. Animals are our friends.
C. The best fish swim near the bottom. D. Every dog has his day.
26. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “appalled” in para. 3?
A. Satisfied. B. Shocked. C. Curious. D. Excited.
27. How do David and Yvonne feel about the result?
A. Excited and proud. B. Angry and disappointed.
C. Unhappy but understandable. D. Proud but angry.
C
As you walk around the UK in March, you might notice that some people are wearing a daffodil (水仙花) on their coats. The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities: Marie Curie.
Marie Curie tries to ensure everyone who has cancer is cared for in the best possible way. It also helps fund research into possible cures. Founded in 1948, it has been continuing with its goal ever since.
The charity was named after Marie Curie, a famous scientist. She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity (放射性). Unfortunately, over-exposure to the radioactive elements made her develop a disease and die in 1934. Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in two different fields. Because of her pioneering work which led to chemotherapy (化学疗法), the charity decided on the name of Marie Curie.
The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK, which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter. Because of this, the charity uses the daffodil as a metaphor (比喻) for bringing rebirth through charitable giving.
Everyone you see wearing a daffodil has contributed to the charity, but each daffodil is worth only what you want to pay for it. The charity does ask that you stick to a minimum amount of £1.
The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March, when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” start. But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March. People are sometimes seen walking around with daffodils on their clothes all year round.
28. Why do some British people wear a daffodil?
A. To support a charity. B. To celebrate patients’ recovery.
C. To remember a scientist. D. To offer hope to cancer patients.
29. What makes the charity use the name of Marie Curie?
A. Marie Curie’s support for the charity.
B. Marie Curie’s achievement in cancer treatment.
C. Marie Curie’s research on radioactivity.
D. Marie Curie’s concern over cancer patients.
30. What does the daffodil stand for according to the charity?
A. Bringing life to other people. B. Returning of flowering plants.
C. Contributing money to the charity. D. Lasting care for patients with cancer.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. A change in a British custom. B. The effect of a campaign.
C. A special activity held in March. D. The time to wear daffodils.
D
You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.
“People tend to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “The first thoughts that come into your mind often stop you from offering help.”
Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the assistance of others. They know they should act and however, for reasons they themselves don’t understand, people sometimes don’t respond. Why?
One thing we know is that the unclearer a situation is, the less likely people are to help. Let’s say you see something like vapors (水汽) coming out of a building. You ask yourself, “Is it steam (蒸汽) or smoke?” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react. If you see other people doing nothing, you think, “Of course, that’s just steam.” You don’t want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it.
Another one is known as “the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!
“If you notice trouble force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking away,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also help.
32. According to Ervin Staub, when accidents happen, people’s first thoughts ________.
A. force them to give a hand B. depend on others’ reaction
C. prevent them from helping D. often lead to embarrassment
33. What does “the bystander effects” in paragraph 5 show?
A. Many hands make light work.
B. More people, less responsibility.
C. The majority of people have the same idea.
D. People have a tendency to think twice before they act.
34. What should you probably act if you observe trouble according to last paragraph?
A. Call the ambulance as soon as you can.
B. Evaluate the situation and take action alone.
C. Stop and try to involve other people to help together.
D. Turn to others and ask them to take on the whole responsibility.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Stick to Your Decision. B. Don’t Just Stand There.
C. It’s the Thought that Counts. D. To Help or Not, it’s a Question.

Jim slumped on the couch. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without money?” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the couch. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree(疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper, taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now?” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a shopping spree, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and curled his toes and thought so hard that his ears hurt.

David Grant and Yvonne Faulkner-Grant of Warwickshire, England always let their 13-year-old dog, Scruff, pick up the plastic bottles he finds while out on their daily walks. The dog carries the bottle for a while, and they kick it or throw it for him to chase. The game is over when Scruff loses interest and drops it.
Throughout 2021, David and Yvonne observed Scruff’s habit of finding even the most well-hidden bottles. They also noticed a marked increase in the amount of litter in their rural area. David says they were both taught never to drop their trash as children, so they couldn’t believe that people were littering so much. At the start of 2022, David and Yvonne decided to start picking up the bottles to bring home with them. It was the large number of litter that made them decide to train Scruff to gather other people’s trash.
Since starting this journey, Scruff has become a local celebrity in his neighborhood. David and Yvonne never let Scruff pick up anything dangerous, like glass. They also remain appalled by the amount of litter they’re seeing, and hope that people will hear Scruff story and either stop dropping trash or, perhaps, try picking it up themselves. Plus, Yvonne thinks Scruff took to his duties so well, other dogs could easily be trained to do what he does as well.
In the end, Scruff was able to gather up 1,334 bottles — along with three cups, a Pringles tub, and a baby feeding bottle. “If we walk the same route (路线) every day, he will find bottles on that route every single day.” said David. “We feel a bit of pride that we are picking them up, but a bit of anger that they’re even there,” Yvonne said.
24. In which situation will the game be over?
A. Scruff gathers 100 bottles. B. Scruff throws the bottle into the bin.
C. Scruff drops the plastic bottle. D. David Grant sells the bottle for money.
25. What were David and Yvonne taught from their childhood?
A. Don’t drop litter everywhere. B. Animals are our friends.
C. The best fish swim near the bottom. D. Every dog has his day.
26. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “appalled” in para. 3?
A. Satisfied. B. Shocked. C. Curious. D. Excited.
27. How do David and Yvonne feel about the result?
A. Excited and proud. B. Angry and disappointed.
C. Unhappy but understandable. D. Proud but angry.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D

As you walk around the UK in March, you might notice that some people are wearing a daffodil (水仙花) on their coats. The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities: Marie Curie.
Marie Curie tries to ensure everyone who has cancer is cared for in the best possible way. It also helps fund research into possible cures. Founded in 1948, it has been continuing with its goal ever since.
The charity was named after Marie Curie, a famous scientist. She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity (放射性). Unfortunately, over-exposure to the radioactive elements made her develop a disease and die in 1934. Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in two different fields. Because of her pioneering work which led to chemotherapy (化学疗法), the charity decided on the name of Marie Curie.
The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK, which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter. Because of this, the charity uses the daffodil as a metaphor (比喻) for bringing rebirth through charitable giving.
Everyone you see wearing a daffodil has contributed to the charity, but each daffodil is worth only what you want to pay for it. The charity does ask that you stick to a minimum amount of £1.
The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March, when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” start. But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March. People are sometimes seen walking around with daffodils on their clothes all year round.
28. Why do some British people wear a daffodil?
A. To support a charity. B. To celebrate patients’ recovery.
C. To remember a scientist. D. To offer hope to cancer patients.
29. What makes the charity use the name of Marie Curie?
A. Marie Curie’s support for the charity.
B. Marie Curie’s achievement in cancer treatment.
C. Marie Curie’s research on radioactivity.
D. Marie Curie’s concern over cancer patients.
30 What does the daffodil stand for according to the charity?
A. Bringing life to other people. B. Returning of flowering plants.
C. Contributing money to the charity. D. Lasting care for patients with cancer.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. A change in a British custom. B. The effect of a campaign.
C. A special activity held in March. D. The time to wear daffodils.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是英国人为了纪念Marie Curie对癌症治疗做出的贡献佩戴水仙花,并介绍了佩戴水仙花的时间。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。文章第一段讲到“The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities: the Marie Curie Cancer Care. (英国人佩戴这些黄色的花朵,以表示他们支持这个国家最著名的慈善机构之一:Marie Curie癌症护理)”可知,英国人戴水仙花代表支持一个慈善机构。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。文章第三段讲到“She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity (放射性). (她用新发现的元素进行实验,建立了放射性理论)”以及“Because of her pioneering work which led to chemotherapy (化学疗法), the charity decided on the name of Marie Curie. (由于她的开创性的化学治疗工作,该慈善机构决定以玛丽·居里的名字命名)”可知,居里夫人关于放射性的研究推动了化学物质在癌症治疗方面的运用,因此该慈善机构选用了居里夫人的名字。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。文章第四段讲到“The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK, which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter. Because of this, the charity uses the daffodil as a metaphor (比喻) for bringing rebirth through charitable giving. (水仙花是英国春季最早开花的植物之一,这标志着开花植物在冬季后重返生态系统。因此,该慈善机构将水仙花作为通过慈善捐赠带来重生的隐喻)”可知,水仙花象征着冬去春来,生命的复苏。由此推知,该慈善机构把水仙花作为象征,是因为此花给他人带来生命的象征。故选A。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章最后一段讲到“The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March, when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” start. But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March. (该慈善机构鼓励人们在三月初开始佩戴水仙花,即“Great Daffodil Appeal”开始之际。但这并不意味着你只能在三月穿。)”可知,最后一段主要讨论了人们佩戴水仙花的时间。故选C。

You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.
“People tend to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “The first thoughts that come into your mind often stop you from offering help.”
Time and again, good and caring people fail to come to the assistance of others. They know they should act and however, for reasons they themselves don’t understand, people sometimes don’t respond. Why?
One thing we know is that the unclearer a situation is, the less likely people are to help. Let’s say you see something like vapors (水汽) coming out of a building. You ask yourself, “Is it steam (蒸汽) or smoke?” If you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue about how to react. If you see other people doing nothing, you think, “Of course, that’s just steam.” You don’t want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it.
Another one is known as “the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!
“If you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking away,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also help.
32. According to Ervin Staub, when accidents happen, people’s first thoughts ________.
A. force them to give a hand B. depend on others’ reaction
C. prevent them from helping D. often lead to embarrassment
33. What does “the bystander effects” in paragraph 5 show?
A. Many hands make light work.
B. More people, less responsibility.
C. The majority of people have the same idea.
D. People have a tendency to think twice before they act.
34. What should you probably act if you observe trouble according to last paragraph?
A. Call the ambulance as soon as you can.
B. Evaluate the situation and take action alone.
C. Stop and try to involve other people to help together.
D. Turn to others and ask them to take on the whole responsibility.
35 What can be the best title for the text?
A. Stick to Your Decision. B. Don’t Just Stand There.
C. It’s the Thought that Counts. D. To Help or Not, it’s a Question.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。本文主要讲述了当发现有人突然倒下,你是停下帮助呢,还是作为一个旁观者呢,并分析了人们遇到这种事件时的心理。文章呼吁人们挺身而出,乐于助人。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““People tend to decide that no action is needed,” says Ervin Staub, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “The first thoughts that come into your mind often stop you from offering help.”(“人们倾向于认为不需要采取任何行动,”马萨诸塞大学阿默斯特分校研究旁观者角色的心理学家欧文·斯托布(Ervin Staub)说。“进入你脑海的第一个想法往往会阻止你提供帮助。”)”可知,根据Ervin Staub的说法,当事故发生时,人们的第一反应阻止提供帮助。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。第五段“Another one is known as “the bystander effect”. This says that the more people there are observing an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. For example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. However, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!(另一个被称为“旁观者效应”。这就是说,观察紧急情况的人越多,每个人个人的责任就越少。例如,如果你是世界上唯一一个能在危险情况下拯救别人的人,你就更有可能采取行动。然而,如果你是10万人中的一员,你会更高兴,如果其他99999人中的一个去做!)”可知,“旁观者效应”说明了人多责任少。故选B项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““If you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking away,” says Ervin Staub. Then try to involve other people; you don’t have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. According to Staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “It looks like we should do something.” Once you take action, most people will follow you and also help.(“如果你注意到有麻烦,强迫自己停下来判断情况,而不是走开,”埃尔文·斯托布说。然后试着让其他人参与进来;你不必承担所有帮助别人的责任。根据Staub的说法,有时只是转向你旁边的人说:“看起来我们应该做点什么。”一旦你采取行动,大多数人会跟随你,也会帮助你)”可知,根据本段,如果你观察到有麻烦,停下来判断情况,然后试着让其他人参与进来。故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“You’re rushing to school and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. Do you stop to help? In a study of bystanders, it was found that some people look away or keep on walking rather than stop and get involved.(你正赶着去学校,你前面的一个人突然摔倒了。你会停下来帮忙吗?在一项对旁观者的研究中发现,有些人会把目光移开,或者继续往前走,而不是停下来参与进来)”纵观全文可知,本文主要讲述了当发现有人突然倒下,你是停下帮助呢,还是作为一个旁观者呢,本文分析这时的心理状态,并提出解决方法,呼吁人们挺身而出,乐于助人。所以B项“Don’t Just Stand There.(不要只是站在那里)”是本文最好的标题。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了横跨江西鄱阳湖的公路因季节变化而时隐时现的独特景观。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在中国南部,有一条著名的路横跨鄱阳湖,该湖位于中国江西省北部,被称为中国第二大湖。句子谓语动词是is,空处需要非谓语动词作定语,和修饰的名词road之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填built。
【57题详解】
考查形容词的最高级。句意:在中国南部,有一条著名的路横跨鄱阳湖,该湖位于中国江西省北部,被称为中国第二大湖。根据空前的second可知,空处需要形容词的最高级,表示“鄱阳湖是中国第二大湖”。故填largest。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这条路在每年五月底一定会吸引很多人的注意。be sure to do sth.“一定会做某事”。故填to attract。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:很多人出于好奇而来。out of curiosity“处于好奇”,空处需要名词作宾语。故填curiosity。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:湖水位几乎与路面持平,这使得人们驾车前行时前方视野开阔明亮。空处引导非限定性定语从句,修饰前面的整个句子,且在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
【61题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这种感觉实在是太美妙了!结合前文“It’s as though they were taking a boat across the lake.(就好像他们在坐船过河一样)”可知,空处需要定冠词the,特指前面提到那种感觉。故填the。
【62题详解】
考查连词。句意:在接下来的几个月里,这条路不是在水面上,而是在水下。句子使用短语not…but…“不是……而是……”。故填but。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,司机们可以通过观察固定在道路两侧的防撞护栏安全地驾车穿越湖泊。空处需要副词修饰动词drive,作状语。故填safely。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:对于寻求刺激的司机来说,这就像驾驶一艘水陆两栖的超级汽车。like此处为介词“像……”,所以空处需要动名词作介词的宾语。故填driving。
【65题详解】
考查时态。句意:再过几天,整个道路都会被不断上涨的洪水淹没。空为句子的谓语动词,根据时间状语in a few days可知,句子为一般将来时态,且该动词和主语之间为被动关系,所以句子使用一般将来时态的被动语态。故填will be flooded。

Dear Jack,
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear Jack,
I’m worried that you’ve been addicted to sharing all sorts of photos in WeChat Moment recently.
Undeniably, WeChat makes communication convenient and leisure time colorful. However, there exist some potential risks if we overshare. One severe problem is leaking privacy, which may cause economic losses. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortable, for they think you are showing off.
Thus, never should we post our personal information, nor should we blindly add strangers to the list of friends. It’s wiser to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful.
Best wishes!
Yours truly,
Li Hua

Jim slumped on the couch. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without money?” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the couch. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree(疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper, taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now?” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a shopping spree, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and curled his toes and thought so hard that his ears hurt.

After he finished writing, he copied it neatly, and got another envelope from his dad. He put the letter into the envelope with great care and thought his mom would love the present. A smile of satisfaction flashed across his face. He rose from his chair, stretched himself, and went to bed happily.
The next morning, Jim handed his present to his mom. Seeing the present, her face brightened up. “I hope you will like it, mom,” Jim looked at his mom eagerly. His mom gave him a big smile, “Thank you, my dear! Whatever it is, I will like it.” Then she took out the letter, reading, “Dear mom, thank you for making me meals and dessert, telling me stories and giving me hugs. Thank you for everything. I love you!” Mom hugged Jim tightly, “Thank you, my son. I love you, too. This is the best present I have ever received.”
