|阅|读|技|能|提|升| 梳理游览顺序,把握文章信息
本文是“景点介绍”类文章,属于说明性的应用文,主要向读者客观地介绍旅游景点的历史、文化、地理位置、特色等信息。此类文章一般按照一定的游览顺序行文,使读者能够清晰地了解旅游景点的信息和特点。如本文介绍了秘鲁的地理位置、地形、历史等以及四条不同特色的旅游路线,在游览亚马孙热带雨林的旅游路线时按照“乘飞机到达→乘船前往雨林深处→深入雨林进行探索”的顺序进行叙述,让读者感受南美风情,拓展国际视野,同时激发读者探索秘鲁的欲望。在做阅读理解类题目时,可利用这一特点快速查找信息。

2.This four-day walking tour will take you on amazing paths through the Andes Mountains on the way to the city of Machu Picchu.

2.Enjoy the beautiful countryside as you spend a day driving along the new highway connecting Cusco to Lake Titicaca.
赏析:该句中使用了as 引导时间状语从句;现在分词短语connecting Cusco to Lake Titicaca作后置定语,修饰the new highway,将一幅驱车旅游的画卷展现在读者面前,栩栩如生。

Rome is one of the most ancient cities in the world and is full of wonderful relics from its distant past.These include the Roman Forum, Rome, as well as the vast Coliseum, the largest outdoor theatre ever built and one of the greatest wonders in the world.The ruins of buildings and temples are fascinating: you can't quite believe how old they are.
I studied the masterpieces of the Renaissance period at school and was excited to see them in real life.When I walked around the museum in Vatican City, I saw plenty of famous sculptures.The best part of the visit was, without doubt, the Sistine Chapel ceiling, painted in the early 16th century by the great Michelangelo.
In Rome, there is a large offering of food for tourists, but some of it isn't very good in quality.I made an effort to find some restaurants to taste the popular meals of the region, like pasta with tomatoes, onions and bacon.I also loved eating ice cream and drinking hot chocolate under the Christmas lights.
It was a perfect opportunity to buy presents for my family and friends.There was also a Christmas market, where I bought a sparkly decoration for the tree.
I love visiting new places, especially capital cities.I have been very lucky this year because I also visited Amsterdam in the summer.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
This is not a trip that many travelers experience; more famous destinations in China are more popular. But for exploratory travelers looking for truly different trips, back-packing the Chinese Silk Road gets rewards. So pack your bag and check out our guide to back-packing the Silk Road through China.
Don't-miss sights
Overhanging Great Wall. Named because it looks like a dragon hanging over a cliff side, this part of the Great Wall is one of the most amazing: a mud maze (迷宫) that winds its way up a desert mountain. The wall is open for climbing and views from the top are unbelievable.
Turpan Grape Valley. China may not be known for its quality wine making just yet, but Turpan is home to one of the oldest wine-making regions in the country. Sipping a fresh glass of white wine under grape trellises is a great way to beat the desert heat.
Singing Sands Dune (沙丘). On the outskirts of Dunhuang, Singing Sands Dune is the first in a series of thousands of dunes that make up the Taklamakan Desert. Adventurous types can get on top of the dune for great views of more dunes and then sand-sled back to the bottom.
Tips and recommendations
Most of this route follows extreme desert, so pack for dry heat. Trains usually sell beer and wine, but at higher prices, so be sure to pack your own. Mandarin is spoken throughout the region, but in some more remote areas, you may find older people only speak local dialects or Uighur.

Does adventure have an age limit? Two close friends have given a negative answer to the question. Ellie Hamby and Sandy Hazelip, both at the age of 81, inspired by Jules Verne's novel Around the World in 80 Days, are on a mission to see all seven continents in just over two and a half months.
Their first stop was a location that was not easily accessible to even many experienced travelers: Antarctica. Getting to the southernmost continent first required crossing the Drake Passage, the famously rough waters. “For almost two days, we were rocking and rolling and slipping and sliding through the Drake Passage. It was just wild,” Hamby said. “But when we stepped foot on the ground of the Antarctic, we forgot all of that. The beauty of the Antarctic is just unbelievable — just breath-taking.”
Over the past three months, the pair have ridden camels in Egypt, met elephants in Bali, and observed the Northern Lights in Finland. For Hamby, the best part of the trip was not the beauty along the way. “We love all the sights that we saw, but the things that we remember the most are the people that we met,” she said. “We met some of the kindest and friendliest people in the world. We just have friends now all over the world.”
When it came to how their families felt about their journey, Hamby said her daughter Louise was not too concerned. “She just says, ‘Well, if Mom falls out of a hot air balloon in Egypt or off of the mountain ... That's fine. She's living the life she wanted to live, and I'm happy for her,’” Hamby said.
Hazelip hopes their story can inspire people of all ages. “Don't sit in that chair and waste away,” Hazelip said. “Ellie has this wonderful saying; it goes ‘the world is a book and he who does not travel only reads one page’. So get up out of that easy chair, step out of your comfort zone, make some plans and live. Remember that age is only a number.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了81岁的Ellie Hamby和Sandy Hazelip受《环游世界八十天》启发,在两个半月内游览七大洲的故事。
4.Which words can best describe Hamby and Hazelip's journey to Antarctica?
A.Adventurous but wonderful.
B.Boring and uneventful.

解析:选A 推理判断题。根据第二段“Getting to the southernmost continent ... just breath-taking.”可知,他们的南极之旅虽然冒险但是非常美妙。

B.Meeting wonderful people.
C.Experiencing different cultures.
D.Having her best friend's company.

A.Uncertain. B.Indifferent.
C.Supportive. D.Concerned.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第四段可知,Louise对她母亲的旅行是持支持态度的。

B.A friend for life is a friend indeed.
C.Seeing the world is not a must for the old.
