Lonely Planet’s Top Places to Go in 2025
Are you looking for inspiration for your next travel destination? Lonely Planet has published its yearly list of top places to go. Let’s explore the top picks for travel destinations in 2025.
Top City: Nairobi
Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, was chosen for its unique music and dance culture, and impressive local restaurants. Nairobi National Park, just a short drive out of the city’s central business district, is a must-see, where visitors can see over-400 species wandering the open grass plains while skyscrapers twinkle on the horizon.
Top Country: Mongolia
Mongolia is loved for its wide-open spaces, adventure activities, and unique food. The Mongolian government has announced 2023 through 2025 as: the “Years to Visit Mongolia”, easing entry conditions for international travelers and improving public facilities, including a new $650 million airport.
Top Sustainable Travel Destination: Spain
The publisher also recommended Spain for the country’s efforts to expand renewable energy, to develop off-season travel, and to bring tourism to new destinations, such as the port city of Valencia, easing pressures on hot spots such as Barcelona.

At 15, I unwillingly joined a mountain-climbing camp in the Rockies. My fear of heights made me freeze, but my parents insisted it would “build character.” On the first morning, our instructor, Sarah, gathered us at the base. “This climb isn’t about speed or strength,” she said. “It’s about listening — to your body, the mountain, and your teammates.” I rolled my eyes, convinced that reaching the summit was the only measure of success.
My teammate Jake, a confident athlete, dashed ahead, laughing at my cautious pace. “You’re wasting time!” he yelled. By midday, however, his confidence broke. Jake collapsed on a narrow ledge, trembling from thirst and muscle pain. Meanwhile, I adjusted my equipment, sipped water every 15 minutes, and studied the rock formations. When storm clouds darkened the sky, panic struck me. Sarah’s voice echoed in my mind: “Control what you can. Let go of what you can’t.”
The final stretch tested everyone. Jake fell behind, humbled and silent. I focused on three-step rhythms: plant, pull, and breathe. At the summit, wind beat my face as I gazed at the valley below. Jake approached, voice shaky. “I wanted to prove I was the best,” he admitted. “But I forgot to respect the mountain.” That moment reshaped my understanding of growth — it wasn’t about conquering peaks but embracing humility and patience.
Years later, as a guide, I teach philosophy at a high school. One student recently asked, “What if I fail?” I smiled. “Failure isn’t falling, it’s refusing to learn why you fell.” Mountains mirror life’s struggles: unpredictable, demanding, yet transformative (能使人改变的). Every struggle and setback carves resilience (适应力)into our stories. The true summit isn’t a physical place — it’s the wisdom we carry back to the world below.
4. What initial attitude did the author have toward the instructor’s advice?
A. Enthusiastic. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Confused.
5 Why did Jake fail to climb the mountain?
A. He wanted the author to win. B. He lacked proper equipment.
C. He rushed without preparation. D. He had to help other climbers.
6. Which of the following words best describes the author?
A. Patiently observant. B. Eagerly ambitious.
C Competitively driven. D. Emotionally attached.
7. What lesson does the author learn from this climbing?
A. Winning requires fighting bravely. B. Physical strength guarantees success.
C. Teamwork outweighs personal goals. D. Success values steady effort over shortcuts.
C
Nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employment and employee retention (留住), improved productivity and a higher quality of care. The research has important implications for the workplace and the long-term care industry.
Yong Suk Lee, associate professor of technology, economy and global affairs, was the lead author for the study. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could involve elsewhere — a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said, “We need to be ready for this new reality.”
In a future where there are more senior citizens requiring care, using robots in a targeted fashion could benefit workers and patients alike, Lee said. The study analyzed three types of robots that are increasingly used in assisted living facilities. Transfer robots, which nurses use to lift, move and rotate patients in beds and around rooms. Mobility robots, which patients use to move around and to bathe. Monitoring and communication robots, which include technologies such as computer vision and bed sensors that can record and examine patient data such as movement and share it with care providers.
“We found that robot adoption aids care workers by reducing quit rates. This is important because employee turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Lee said, “Robots can improve productivity by shifting the tasks performed by care workers to those involving human touch, empathy and flexibility. Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.”
“This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully navigate the challenges of caring for aging populations,” Lee said.
8. Why did Yong Suk Lee focus his research on Japan?
A. It encourages the elderly care industry.
B. It has a sound foundation for robot nursing.
C. Its super-aging society well reflects the trend.
D. It owns the most advanced robots in the world.
9. What does the underlined word “rotate” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. treat. B. examine. C. monitor. D. reposition.
10. Why does robot adoption reduce workers’ quit rates?
A. It solves the issue of low pay.
B. It eases their heavy working burden.
C. It offers a good working environment.
D. It helps to treat their occupational injuries.
11. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Japan’s exploration represents the care industry.
B. High quality care for the elderly should be advocated.
C. Nursing robots benefit staff retention and patient care.
D. Robot adoption in nursing requires critical examination.
D
In a very important journey to make space travel better for the environment, scientists have successfully launched LignoSat, the world’s first wooden satellite, aboard a SpaceX rocket. The satellite is going on a trip to bring more things to the International Space Station (ISS), where it will be launched into orbit in the coming month.
The pioneering project was developed by Kyoto University scientists and Sumitomo Forestry, which is a big step in finding new ways to be good for the environment when we use technology in space. LignoSat’s purpose is to see whether wood could be a proper material in space. The satellite is set to orbit Earth for six months, staying strong in the tough space environment while scientists watch how well it holds up.
Wood, surprisingly strong in space due to the absence of oxygen and water, could offer a solution to a significant problem facing the satellite industry: metal pieces from retired satellites re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. Traditional metal satellites often generate metal particles upon burning up, but LignoSat, designed to break up harmlessly on re-entry, has the potential to avoid this environmental impact altogether.
Koji Murata, a professor from Kyoto University who studies forests, said that because wood could last a long time without oxygen, it might be a good material to use for spaceships, reducing environmental harm when the satellite returns to Earth. The satellite was put in a specialized container (容器) by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and flew into space safely, according to a post on the Internet. Sumitomo Forestry’s spokesperson said the satellite’s journey went well and that it would soon arrive at the ISS, where it will then be launched into space.
12. What can be learned about LignoSat?
A. It’s made of metal. B. It’s a wooden satellite.
C. It looks like a SpaceX rocket. D. It’s near the International Space Station
13. What is the main purpose of LignoSat?
A. To make the journey to space faster. B. To discover water sources in space.
C. To bring space materials back to Earth. D. To test if wood is suitable for use in space.
14. What benefit does wood offer compared to metal for satellites according to paragraph 3?
A. It is more environment-friendly. B. It can be found more easily.
C. It provides more strength. D. It is cheaper.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A ISS: Wooden Addition B. LignoSat: Beyond Profit
C First Wooden Satellite: Eco-Space Travel D. SpaceX: Green Satellite Launch

There are lots of exciting ways to sort out your shelves and organize your book collection.

Choose a spot.
Whether it’s in a special reading corner or on a bookshelf, it’s a good idea to keep all of your books together in one place. “It’s always inspiring to be surrounded by a mix of old favorites and new titles in a comfortable bookish corner,” says Wingfield. Gather your books together and start sorting. “____17____ Make the most of the space you have available — putting books on top of the shelves can be a good use of space,” says Mair.
Organize your books.
At The Alligator’s Mouth, the shelves are organized in a few different ways — picture books are ordered alphabetically (按字母顺序地) by publisher; novels, poetry and storybooks by the author’s surname; and non-novel books are grouped in themes. “Have fun with it,” says Mair. “____18____”
Present special books.
Mair suggests a simple way to highlight a book on your shelf. ____19____ In other words, the cover should be pointing outwards instead of the spine (书脊). By doing this, you can showcase the book’s story more effectively.
Sort and swap (交换).
____20____ “It’s hard to decide which ones are ready to go to a new home,” says Wingfield, but she adds, “It’s a great way to make way for new favorites and pass on favorites to other readers too.”
A. Not everyone has room for a personal library.

I saw my future as a _____30_____ until a nutrition class, when the teacher’s lecture _____31_____ me of my love of science.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1989, I had just graduated from high school. I had three months before college started, and I found it hard to choose a career path. My choices were limited. I could become a doctor or an engineer, or go into finance (金融) after getting a business degree. I wasn’t interested in engineering, so I was left with medicine or business. I couldn’t decide.
My uncle, one of the elders in the family, suggested that I be a one-month intern (毕业实习生) at an international company and then a one-month intern at a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a great idea.
I was accepted as a one-month intern at a foreign bank. I learned how the finance world worked, made new friends, and enjoyed the relaxing working environment.
The month passed quickly, and I started working at a leading hospital. This experience was completely different. The hospital was very demanding. The days started at 7 am(compared to 9 am at the bank)and were full of endless duties. It was crazy.
I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank offered a more relaxing working environment, better working hours, and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement and something unpredictable (难以预料的), but the studying and training were very hard. It seemed like business was going to win.
In the last few days of my hospital internship, I was driving home after a very busy night. On the way, I saw an old man and an old woman standing by the road, looking very worried. I pulled over and asked what was wrong. The old man told me that his wife suddenly felt very sick and needed to go to the hospital immediately. Hearing this, I decided to help them.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I quickly got the old man and his wife into my car.

The next day, I went to see the old man and his wife.

At 15, I unwillingly joined a mountain-climbing camp in the Rockies. My fear of heights made me freeze, but my parents insisted it would “build character.” On the first morning, our instructor, Sarah, gathered us at the base. “This climb isn’t about speed or strength,” she said. “It’s about listening — to your body, the mountain, and your teammates.” I rolled my eyes, convinced that reaching the summit was the only measure of success.
My teammate Jake, a confident athlete, dashed ahead, laughing at my cautious pace. “You’re wasting time!” he yelled. By midday, however, his confidence broke. Jake collapsed on a narrow ledge, trembling from thirst and muscle pain. Meanwhile, I adjusted my equipment, sipped water every 15 minutes, and studied the rock formations. When storm clouds darkened the sky, panic struck me. Sarah’s voice echoed in my mind: “Control what you can. Let go of what you can’t.”
The final stretch tested everyone. Jake fell behind, humbled and silent. I focused on three-step rhythms: plant, pull, and breathe. At the summit, wind beat my face as I gazed at the valley below. Jake approached, voice shaky. “I wanted to prove I was the best,” he admitted. “But I forgot to respect the mountain.” That moment reshaped my understanding of growth — it wasn’t about conquering peaks but embracing humility and patience.
Years later, as a guide, I teach philosophy at a high school. One student recently asked, “What if I fail?” I smiled. “Failure isn’t falling, it’s refusing to learn why you fell.” Mountains mirror life’s struggles: unpredictable, demanding, yet transformative (能使人改变的). Every struggle and setback carves resilience (适应力)into our stories. The true summit isn’t a physical place — it’s the wisdom we carry back to the world below.
4. What initial attitude did the author have toward the instructor’s advice?
A. Enthusiastic. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Confused.
5. Why did Jake fail to climb the mountain?
A. He wanted the author to win. B. He lacked proper equipment.
C. He rushed without preparation. D. He had to help other climbers.

Nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employment and employee retention (留住), improved productivity and a higher quality of care. The research has important implications for the workplace and the long-term care industry.
Yong Suk Lee, associate professor of technology, economy and global affairs, was the lead author for the study. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could involve elsewhere — a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said, “We need to be ready for this new reality.”
In a future where there are more senior citizens requiring care, using robots in a targeted fashion could benefit workers and patients alike, Lee said. The study analyzed three types of robots that are increasingly used in assisted living facilities. Transfer robots, which nurses use to lift, move and rotate patients in beds and around rooms. Mobility robots, which patients use to move around and to bathe. Monitoring and communication robots, which include technologies such as computer vision and bed sensors that can record and examine patient data such as movement and share it with care providers.
“We found that robot adoption aids care workers by reducing quit rates. This is important because employee turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Lee said, “Robots can improve productivity by shifting the tasks performed by care workers to those involving human touch, empathy and flexibility. Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.”
“This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully navigate the challenges of caring for aging populations,” Lee said.
8. Why did Yong Suk Lee focus his research on Japan?
A. It encourages the elderly care industry.
B. It has a sound foundation for robot nursing.
C. Its super-aging society well reflects the trend.
D. It owns the most advanced robots in the world.
9. What does the underlined word “rotate” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. treat. B. examine. C. monitor. D. reposition.
10. Why does robot adoption reduce workers’ quit rates?
A. It solves the issue of low pay.
B. It eases their heavy working burden.
C. It offers a good working environment.
D. It helps to treat their occupational injuries.
11. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Japan’s exploration represents the care industry.
B. High quality care for the elderly should be advocated.
C. Nursing robots benefit staff retention and patient care.
D. Robot adoption in nursing requires critical examination.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C

推理判断题。根据第二段““Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could entail elsewhere-a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said. (“我们的研究集中在日本,因为它是一个超老龄化社会,为其他地方未来可能面临的情况提供了一个很好的例子——人口减少,老年人口比例增加,劳动年龄人口比例下降,”李说)”可知,Yong Suk Lee将研究集中在日本是因为其超老龄化社会很好地反映了趋势。故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题型。根据第三段“Transfer robots, which nurses use to lift, move and rotate patients in beds and around rooms.(转运机器人,护士用它来在病床及房间周围抬起、移动和rotate病人)” 可知,“rotate”与“lift(抬起)”“move(移动)”并列,且与病人在病床及房间周围的动作相关,结合选项,可推测 “rotate” 意思为 “转动,改变位置”。故选D。

In a very important journey to make space travel better for the environment, scientists have successfully launched LignoSat, the world’s first wooden satellite, aboard a SpaceX rocket. The satellite is going on a trip to bring more things to the International Space Station (ISS), where it will be launched into orbit in the coming month.
The pioneering project was developed by Kyoto University scientists and Sumitomo Forestry, which is a big step in finding new ways to be good for the environment when we use technology in space. LignoSat’s purpose is to see whether wood could be a proper material in space. The satellite is set to orbit Earth for six months, staying strong in the tough space environment while scientists watch how well it holds up.
Wood, surprisingly strong in space due to the absence of oxygen and water, could offer a solution to a significant problem facing the satellite industry: metal pieces from retired satellites re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. Traditional metal satellites often generate metal particles upon burning up, but LignoSat, designed to break up harmlessly on re-entry, has the potential to avoid this environmental impact altogether.
Koji Murata, a professor from Kyoto University who studies forests, said that because wood could last a long time without oxygen, it might be a good material to use for spaceships, reducing environmental harm when the satellite returns to Earth. The satellite was put in a specialized container (容器) by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and flew into space safely, according to a post on the Internet. Sumitomo Forestry’s spokesperson said the satellite’s journey went well and that it would soon arrive at the ISS, where it will then be launched into space.
12. What can be learned about LignoSat?
A. It’s made of metal. B. It’s a wooden satellite.
C. It looks like a SpaceX rocket. D. It’s near the International Space Station
13. What is the main purpose of LignoSat?
A. To make the journey to space faster. B. To discover water sources in space.
C. To bring space materials back to Earth. D. To test if wood is suitable for use in space.
14. What benefit does wood offer compared to metal for satellites according to paragraph 3?
A. It is more environment-friendly. B. It can be found more easily.
C. It provides more strength. D. It is cheaper.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. ISS: Wooden Addition B. LignoSat: Beyond Profit
C. First Wooden Satellite: Eco-Space Travel D. SpaceX: Green Satellite Launch
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C

【详解】考查名词。句意:他们收到了许多关于建筑工地噪音的投诉。分析句子可知,此空应填名词作宾语,complaint,表“投诉”,为可数名词,再由numerous可知,这里应用复数形式。故填complaints。
39. The school expanded its digital resources for students in ______(respond)to the increasing demand for online learning. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】response
【解析】
40. The police _______ (seek) public assistance yesterday to locate a missing boy in the neighborhood. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】sought
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意:警方昨天请求公众帮助寻找附近一个失踪的男孩。根据时间状语yesterday可知,用一般过去时,空格处是谓语动词,用过去式sought。故填sought。
41. We were driving on the road when a big rock rolled down the hill and we only just escaped ______ (hit).
【答案】being hit
【解析】
【详解】考查动名词。句意:我们正在路上开车,突然一块大石头从山上滚下来,我们差点儿没被砸着。此处为非谓语动词作宾语,根据escape doing意为“逃脱做某事”可知,此处应为动名词形式作宾语,hit与逻辑主语we之间为被动关系,所以此处使用动名词的被动形式。故填being hit。
42. _________ (determine) to improve my spoken English, I make great efforts and spend time as much as possible practicing it. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Determined
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:决心提高我的英语口语,我下了很大的努力,花了尽可能多的时间练习。句子主干成分完整,应用形容词determined“下定决心的,坚决的”作状语,侧重状态,be determined to do sth.表示“决心做某事”,且句首单词首字母应大写。故填Determined。
43. Heated _______ (argue) occurred when the representatives present were discussing the issues, and finally a decision was taken. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】argument
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:代表们在场讨论这些问题时发生了激烈的争论,最终做出了决定。空处作主语,需用名词argument,当argument用来泛指争论或辩论的行为,而不是指某一次具体的争论时,它通常是不可数的。故填argument。
44. He was ______ (hesitate) at first, but approved of the plan eventually. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】hesitant
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:起初他有些犹豫,但最终还是同意了这个计划。空处作表语,应用hesitate的形容词形式hesitant,意为“犹豫的”。故填hesitant。
45. _____________ (judge) from the current situation, a new plan should be put forward as soon as possible. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Judging
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:从目前的情况来看,应该尽快提出新的计划。judging from为独立成分,是一种固定的搭配形式,意为“根据……来判断”或“由……来判定”。judging位于句首,首字母大写。故填Judging。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1989, I had just graduated from high school. I had three months before college started, and I found it hard to choose a career path. My choices were limited. I could become a doctor or an engineer, or go into finance (金融) after getting a business degree. I wasn’t interested in engineering, so I was left with medicine or business. I couldn’t decide.
My uncle, one of the elders in the family, suggested that I be a one-month intern (毕业实习生) at an international company and then a one-month intern at a hospital. After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a great idea.
I was accepted as a one-month intern at a foreign bank. I learned how the finance world worked, made new friends, and enjoyed the relaxing working environment.
The month passed quickly, and I started working at a leading hospital. This experience was completely different. The hospital was very demanding. The days started at 7 am(compared to 9 am at the bank)and were full of endless duties. It was crazy.
I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank offered a more relaxing working environment, better working hours, and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement and something unpredictable (难以预料的), but the studying and training were very hard. It seemed like business was going to win.
In the last few days of my hospital internship, I was driving home after a very busy night. On the way, I saw an old man and an old woman standing by the road, looking very worried. I pulled over and asked what was wrong. The old man told me that his wife suddenly felt very sick and needed to go to the hospital immediately. Hearing this, I decided to help them.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I quickly got the old man and his wife into my car.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, I went to see the old man and his wife.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I quickly got the old man and his wife into my car. I drove as fast as possible, checking on the woman nervously through the rearview mirror. She leaned weakly against her husband, who kept thanking me repeatedly. When we arrived at the hospital, I helped them register and accompanied them to the emergency room. The doctors rushed in to treat the woman, and the old man held my hand tightly, saying I was their savior that night. I stayed until her condition stabilized, realizing how a small act could mean so much to others.
The next day, I went to see the old man and his wife. The woman was resting comfortably, and her face lit up when she saw me. “You’re an angel,” she said, reaching for my hand. Her words touched me deeply. As I talked to them, I realized something: Though the hospital life was tough, it offered moments of real connection and purpose. I thought about the bank’s ease but found myself drawn to the hospital’s chaos — where every day might bring a chance to help someone. That’s when I knew my choice: I wanted to be a doctor, to be there for people in their darkest hours.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。作者高中毕业后在职业选择上犹豫不决,听从叔叔建议分别在银行和医院实习一个月。银行实习轻松,医院实习紧张。在最后一次医院实习下班途中,作者遇到一对求助的老人,决定帮助他们。
