Once a concept limited to science fiction, space travel for private individuals is now becoming a reality. Companies like SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Virgin Galactic are developing commercial spaceflight programs, promising a future where ordinary people can experience life beyond Earth. Wealthy adventurers, celebrities, and even a few researchers have already taken part in these early missions, drawing global attention. However, space tourism raises important questions. Critic argue that it remains an activity for the wealthy, as ticket prices are extremely high. A single trip can cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, making space tourism accessible only to a select few. Others worry about the environmental impact. Rocket launches release large amounts of carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. Some scientists fear that an increase in spaceflights could worsen these issues if not properly regulated. Supporters, on the other hand, believe that space tourism has benefits. It drives innovation in aerospace technology, leading to advancements that could make space travel more affordable in the future. Additionally, some believe that seeing Earth from space — often called the “overview effect” — gives travelers a deeper appreciation for the planet and inspires greater environmental responsibility. Documentaries and interviews with early space tourists suggest this emotional shift is genuine and long-lasting. Despite the excitement, space tourism remains in its early stages. While a few commercial flights have successfully taken private passengers to the edge of space, long-term sustainability is still uncertain. The cost must decrease significantly for space travel to become widely accessible. Scientists also emphasize the need for better safety measures, as spaceflight remains a high-risk activity. Some experts compare space tourism to the early days of aviation. A century ago, air travel was expensive and rare, but today, millions of people fly every day. Could the same happen with space travel? Many in the industry believe so, but it may take decades before space tourism becomes a regular part of human life. For now, space tourism remains a thrilling yet controversial topic. While the idea of ordinary people traveling to space is inspiring, questions about cost, safety, and environmental impact must be addressed before it can truly take off. 1．What is one major concern about space tourism? A．It harms the environment. B．It is illegal in many countries. C．It has replaced scientific space missions. D．It distract s public attention from climate issues. 2．Why do some supporters have a positive view of space tourism? A．It is a safe and affordable industry. B．It helps reduce global carbon emissions. C．It could encourage better treatment of Earth. D．It provides a solution to overcrowding on Earth. 3．What does the underlined phrase “overview effect” most likely refer to? A．A feeling of being lost in space. B．A dangerous effect of space travel. C．An ability to see beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. D．A change in perspective after viewing Earth from space. 4．Which would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Space Tourism Will Fail. B．Is Space Travel worth the Cost? C．How Governments Control Space Travel. D．Space Tourism: The Next Step for Humanity? 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍太空旅游的发展现状、引发的争议及未来可能性。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Others worry about the environmental impact. Rocket launches release large amounts of carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change.(另一些人则担心其对环境的影响。火箭发射向大气中释放大量二氧化碳和其他污染物，加剧了气候变化)”可知，太空旅游的一个主要担忧是它会危害环境。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Additionally, some believe that seeing Earth from space — often called the “overview effect” — gives travelers a deeper appreciation for the planet and inspires greater environmental responsibility.(此外，一些人认为，从太空看地球——通常被称为“概览效应”——让旅行者对地球有更深的欣赏，并激发更强的环境责任感)”可知，支持者对太空旅游持积极态度是因为它可能促使人们更好地对待地球。故选C项。 3．词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Additionally, some believe that seeing Earth from space — often called the “overview effect” — gives travelers a deeper appreciation for the planet and inspires greater environmental responsibility.(此外，一些人认为，从太空看地球——通常被称为“概览效应”——让旅行者对地球有更深的欣赏，并激发更强的环境责任感)”可知，破折号之间的内容与该句的内容一致，该句是对“overview effect”的解释，由此可知，“overview effect”指的是从太空俯瞰地球后，人们在观念上发生的转变。故选D项。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了太空旅游从科幻概念变为现实的发展现状，探讨了其引发的成本、环境、安全等争议，也提及了未来普及的可能性，如同航空旅行的发展历程，因此D项“太空旅游：人类的下一步?”最能概括全文主旨，适合作为本文的最佳标题。故选D项。 We travel to step out of the everyday life and experience something new. But if we care about the planet, we must take a good look at our travel habits. How can we enjoy the thrill of an adventure while supporting environmental protection? Nowadays, it has become necessary that we each learn how to travel sustainably. For some, responsible travel with environmental protection means giving up air travel to protect the planet, and that’s a strongly personal choice. For others, it’s a bit complex, and the interconnected world might be more complex. Many countries, regions, towns and national parks rely on international visitors for their living. Stopping tourism would surely have immediate detrimental effects on local economy. Therefore, how do we deal with this? When considering your next few trips, take a moment to look at your flying habits. If you can, choose some short-distance destinations you can reach by train, one of the most eco-friendly ways to travel. To make the most of a long-distance flight, choose to stay longer in one destination. For example, rather than two weeks in Thailand with an internal flight or two, go for three or four weeks and travel by train or bus between fewer destinations. By doing this, you’ll also be able to slow down and fully engage yourself in a place and its culture. Besides, you might consider carbon balancing. Although it has been criticized for various reasons, supporting green projects to compensate for (补偿) your emissions does help. But remember that it’s combined with reducing your air travel. Finally, some airlines are much more eco-friendly than others. They might lead research into sustainable fuels, invest (投资) in more fuel-efficient aircraft, support decarbonizing projects, and reduce single-use plastics in their meal services. Do some research, and when booking your next flight, if you can, add sustainability practices as well as price and convenience to your list of considerations. 1．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 2 mean? A．desired B．minor C．harmful D．positive 2．Which of the following is the most eco-friendly? A．Traveling to a nearby place by train. B．Spending shorter time in a destination. C．Supporting green projects to keep air travel. D．Traveling by plane between fewer destinations. 3．What does the author advise us to do for air travel? A．Avoid the air travel. B．Book flights ahead of time. C．Consider price first. D．Do some research on travel. 4．What is the author’s purpose in writing this text? A．To discuss people’s travel habits. B．To show how to travel sustainably. C．To recommend long-distance trips. D．To suggest how to travel economically. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何在享受旅行乐趣的同时支持环境保护，实现可持续旅行。 1．词句猜测题。根据第二段划线词前“Many countries, regions, towns and national parks rely on international visitors for their living.(许多国家、地区、城镇和国家公园依靠国际游客来维持生计)”可知，旅游业对当地经济很重要，所以停止旅游业会对当地经济产生不好的影响，划线词detrimental与C项harmful“有害的”意义相近。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“If you can, choose some short-distance destinations you can reach by train, one of the most eco-friendly ways to travel.(如果可以的话，选择一些你可以乘火车到达的短途目的地，这是最环保的旅行方式之一)”可知，乘火车去附近的地方旅行是最环保的。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Do some research, and when booking your next flight, if you can, add sustainability practices as well as price and convenience to your list of considerations.(你可以做些调查，下次预订航班时，如果可以的话，除了价格和便利性，也把航空公司的可持续发展举措纳入考量范围)”可知，作者建议我们对航空旅行做一些研究。故选D。 4．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“How can we enjoy the thrill of an adventure while supporting environmental protection? Nowadays, it has become necessary that we each learn how to travel sustainably.(我们如何才能在享受冒险的刺激之余，同时为环境保护出一份力呢？如今，我们每个人都有必要学习如何可持续地旅行)”可知，文章主要介绍了如何在享受旅行乐趣的同时支持环境保护，实现可持续旅行，故本文的写作目的是说明如何进行可持续旅行。故选B。 The prehistoric Stonehenge stands tall in the British countryside as one of the last remnants (剩余部分) of the Neolithic (新石器的) Age. 1 , with each standing stone around 13 feet high and 7 feet wide. Because of its mystery, it attracts many visitors all over the world. 2 . Recently scientists say they have uncovered details about who built the 5,000-year-old prehistoric monument Stonehenge. The ancient stones in the southwest of England are famous all over the world. How Stonehenge was built has been a mystery for thousands of years. 3 . Researchers wrote in the Scientific Reports journal that some human bones found at the site were from the Preseli Mountains in west Wales. The researchers said the oldest human remains discovered so far date back to about 3000 BC, which is over 5,000 years ago. Stonehenge is a ring of standing monoliths — giant stones. Each standing stone is around 4 metres high and 2.1 metres wide. 4 . Scientists say Stonehenge was first used as a burial mound. The giant stones also came from the Preseli Mountains. Scientists are not sure how ancient people transported the giant stones to their site in Stonehenge. 5 . Researcher John Pouncett said, “People from the Preseli Mountains not only supplied the blue stones used to build the stone circle but moved with the stones and were buried there too.” A．They each weigh around 25 tons B．It consists of a ring of standing stones C．It is one of the landmarks of the country D．Today, nearly 1 million people visit Stonehenge every year E．A new study shows that the builders could have come from Wales, which is more than 160 kilometres away F．The prehistoric monument of Stonehenge has remained mysterious so far G．They now believe the people who were buried at Stonehenge helped transport the giant stones 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．E 4．A 5．G 【导语】本文是说明文。英国的巨石阵一直很神秘，吸引着大量的游客前去参观。最近，科学家进一步解开了巨石阵之谜，发现那些埋葬在这里的人帮助搬运了石块。 1．根据后文“with each standing stone around 13 feet high and 7 feet wide(每块立石约13英尺高，7英尺宽)”可知，此处概述巨石阵的大体构成，由此推知，设空部分以“巨石阵整体构成”为主题进行讲述。选项B“It consists of a ring of standing stones(它由一圈立石组成)”中“It”应是指代“巨石阵”，“standing stones”与后文“each standing stone”呼应，在句意上与后文衔接紧密，符合分析。故选B项。 2．根据前文中的“it attracts many visitors all over the world(它吸引了世界各地的众多游客)”可知，巨石阵吸引了很多游客，设空句紧跟其后，应是进一步阐述每年的游客量。D项“Today, nearly 1 million people visit Stonehenge every year(如今，每年约有 100 万人参观巨石阵)”在句意上承接前文，符合语境。故选D项。 3．根据该段主题句“Recently scientists say they have uncovered details about who built the 5,000-year-old prehistoric monument Stonehenge.(最近，科学家们表示他们已经掌握了有关建造这座拥有 5000 年历史的史前建筑——巨石阵的人员身份的详细信息。)”可知，该段将提及“建造巨石阵的人员身份”，且设空句前一句强调“How Stonehenge was built has been a mystery for thousands of years(巨石阵如何建造是数千年来的谜)”，可视为一个“疑问句”，由此推知设空句应引入新发现以解决此谜，比如“人员身份”的揭示。E选项“A new study shows that the builders could have come from Wales, which is more than 160 kilometres away(新研究显示建造者可能来自160多公里外的威尔士)”揭示了人员身份，且与后文“Researchers wrote…bones were from the Preseli Mountains in west Wales(研究者称骨头来自威尔士)”完美对应，提供科学依据。故选E项。 4．根据设空前一句中的“around 4 metres high and 2.1 metres wide(约 4 米高，2.1 米宽)”可知，此处描述巨石阵所用石头的规格，A选项“They each weigh around 25 tons(它们的重量各约为 25 吨)”说明了巨石阵所用石头的重量，符合语境。故选A项。 5．根据后文“Researcher John Pouncett said, ‘People from the Preseli Mountains not only supplied the blue stones used to build the stone circle but moved with the stones and were buried there too.’(研究人员约翰·庞塞特说：“来自普雷西山脉的人们不仅提供了用于建造石圈的蓝色石块，而且还搬运这些石块，并最终葬身于此。”)”可推知，那些埋葬在这里的人帮助搬运了石块；此句是引用论证，由此推知，设空句应为论点，表达“埋葬在这里的人帮助搬运了石块”，选项G“They now believe the people who were buried at Stonehenge helped transport the giant stones(他们现在认为，那些被葬于巨石阵的人们曾参与了这些巨大石块的运输工作。)”提出了该论点，且“They”呼应前句中的“Scientists”，句中的“were buried”和后句的“were buried”照应。故选G项。 三、完形填空 The 81-year-old good friends Ellie Hamby and Sandy Hazelip toured the world in 80 days, proving that adventure doesn’t have an age limit. Their first stop was a location that 1 even many seasoned travelers: the Antarctic.

The two shared a crucial piece of advice for travelers worrying about the 10 barrier. “It’s the smile.

His friends were playing in the park across the road, their laughter filling the air, but Timmy didn’t join them. He was waiting for his mom to come home. Timmy’s mom, Mrs. Thompson, was a hard-working real estate agent (房地产经纪人). She was constantly on the go, showing houses to clients, attending meetings, and working late into the night. Most days, Timmy only saw her in the early morning rush before school or briefly in the evening when she was too tired to do much more than give him a quick hug. That day, when Mrs. Thompson finally pulled up in her car, she noticed Timmy’s sad expression. As she got out of the car, Timmy ran up to her, his eyes lighting up for a moment. “Mom, can we play a game today? Like we used to?” he asked hopefully. Mrs. Thompson looked at her watch and sighed. “Not today, honey. I have so much work to do. Maybe tomorrow.” Timmy’s shoulders slumped, and he quietly walked back to the steps. That evening, as Mrs. Thompson sat at her desk, going through piles of paperwork, she couldn’t get Timmy’s disappointed face out of her mind. She realized that she had been so focused on her career that she was missing out on her son’s childhood. After much thought, she made a decision. She would take some time off work to be with Timmy. The next morning, Mrs. Thompson called her boss and explained the situation. To her relief, her boss was understanding and gave her a week off.

He jumped out of bed and hugged his mom tightly. “Really, Mom? That’s amazing!” They spent the morning planning all the things they would do together. They decided to go to the zoo first. As they drove to the zoo, Timmy chatted non-stop, his face glowing with happiness. Upon arrival, they rushed towards the panda enclosure, where they watched in awe as the cute pandas munched on bamboo. Timmy laughed out loud when one panda rolled over like a clumsy ball. Mrs. Thompson photographed these precious moments, feeling a sense of contentment she hadn’t experienced in a long time.      However, just as they were playing, Mrs. Thompson’s phone rang. It was one of her most important clients. The client had an urgent question about a house they were interested in buying. Mrs. Thompson hesitated for a moment. Looking at Timmy’s excited face, she made a choice. She silenced her phone and put it back in her bag. She turned to Timmy and said, “Nothing is more important than this time with you, Timmy.” They spent the rest of the day at the zoo, exploring every corner, and even had a picnic lunch on the grass. By the end of the day, both Timmy and Mrs. Thompson were tired but filled with joy. 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了房地产经纪人汤普森夫人工作忙碌，常常无暇陪伴儿子蒂米。一天，蒂米满怀期待地想和妈妈玩游戏，却被拒绝，感到失望。汤普森夫人看到儿子失望的表情后，意识到自己因专注工作而错过了儿子的童年，经过思考后决定请假陪伴儿子，她向老板说明情况后幸运地得到了一周的假期。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句“她说道：“蒂米，我打算请一整周的假，就为了我们俩！””可知，第一段可描写汤普森夫人和蒂米一起游玩的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“然而，就在他们玩耍的时候，汤普森夫人的手机响了。”可知，第二段可描写在游玩期间接到了客户的电话，汤普森夫人将手机调成静音，继续陪蒂米游玩。 2.续写线索：蒂米感到兴奋——一起游玩动物园——接到客户电话——手机调成静音——感到疲惫却喜悦 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①决定做某事：decide to do/determine to do ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③对……感兴趣：be interested in/take an interest in ④探索：explore/probe 情绪类 ①令人惊讶的：amazing/astonishing ②感到兴奋的：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1]Upon arrival, they rushed towards the panda enclosure, where they watched in awe as the cute pandas munched on bamboo.（运用了where引导非限制性定语从句，as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2]Looking at Timmy’s excited face, she made a choice.（运用了现在分词作状语） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 2 Travelling Around 单元话题高考题型练 Unit 2 Travelling Around单元话题：旅游观光 一、语法填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Peru is a country on the Pacific coast of South America.

Rocket launches release large amounts of carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change. Some scientists fear that an increase in spaceflights could worsen these issues if not properly regulated. Supporters, on the other hand, believe that space tourism has benefits. It drives innovation in aerospace technology, leading to advancements that could make space travel more affordable in the future. Additionally, some believe that seeing Earth from space — often called the “overview effect” — gives travelers a deeper appreciation for the planet and inspires greater environmental responsibility. Documentaries and interviews with early space tourists suggest this emotional shift is genuine and long-lasting. Despite the excitement, space tourism remains in its early stages. While a few commercial flights have successfully taken private passengers to the edge of space, long-term sustainability is still uncertain. The cost must decrease significantly for space travel to become widely accessible. Scientists also emphasize the need for better safety measures, as spaceflight remains a high-risk activity. Some experts compare space tourism to the early days of aviation. A century ago, air travel was expensive and rare, but today, millions of people fly every day. Could the same happen with space travel? Many in the industry believe so, but it may take decades before space tourism becomes a regular part of human life. For now, space tourism remains a thrilling yet controversial topic. While the idea of ordinary people traveling to space is inspiring, questions about cost, safety, and environmental impact must be addressed before it can truly take off. 1．What is one major concern about space tourism? A．It harms the environment. B．It is illegal in many countries. C．It has replaced scientific space missions. D．It distract s public attention from climate issues. 2．Why do some supporters have a positive view of space tourism? A．It is a safe and affordable industry. B．It helps reduce global carbon emissions. C．It could encourage better treatment of Earth. D．It provides a solution to overcrowding on Earth. 3．What does the underlined phrase “overview effect” most likely refer to? A．A feeling of being lost in space. B．A dangerous effect of space travel. C．An ability to see beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. D．A change in perspective after viewing Earth from space. 4．Which would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Space Tourism Will Fail. B．Is Space Travel worth the Cost? C．How Governments Control Space Travel. D．Space Tourism: The Next Step for Humanity? We travel to step out of the everyday life and experience something new. But if we care about the planet, we must take a good look at our travel habits. How can we enjoy the thrill of an adventure while supporting environmental protection? Nowadays, it has become necessary that we each learn how to travel sustainably. For some, responsible travel with environmental protection means giving up air travel to protect the planet, and that’s a strongly personal choice. For others, it’s a bit complex, and the interconnected world might be more complex. Many countries, regions, towns and national parks rely on international visitors for their living. Stopping tourism would surely have immediate detrimental effects on local economy. Therefore, how do we deal with this? When considering your next few trips, take a moment to look at your flying habits. If you can, choose some short-distance destinations you can reach by train, one of the most eco-friendly ways to travel. To make the most of a long-distance flight, choose to stay longer in one destination. For example, rather than two weeks in Thailand with an internal flight or two, go for three or four weeks and travel by train or bus between fewer destinations. By doing this, you’ll also be able to slow down and fully engage yourself in a place and its culture. Besides, you might consider carbon balancing. Although it has been criticized for various reasons, supporting green projects to compensate for (补偿) your emissions does help. But remember that it’s combined with reducing your air travel. Finally, some airlines are much more eco-friendly than others. They might lead research into sustainable fuels, invest (投资) in more fuel-efficient aircraft, support decarbonizing projects, and reduce single-use plastics in their meal services. Do some research, and when booking your next flight, if you can, add sustainability practices as well as price and convenience to your list of considerations. 1．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 2 mean? A．desired B．minor C．harmful D．positive 2．Which of the following is the most eco-friendly? A．Traveling to a nearby place by train. B．Spending shorter time in a destination. C．Supporting green projects to keep air travel. D．Traveling by plane between fewer destinations. 3．What does the author advise us to do for air travel? A．Avoid the air travel. B．Book flights ahead of time. C．Consider price first. D．Do some research on travel. 4．What is the author’s purpose in writing this text? A．To discuss people’s travel habits. B．To show how to travel sustainably. C．To recommend long-distance trips. D．To suggest how to travel economically. The prehistoric Stonehenge stands tall in the British countryside as one of the last remnants (剩余部分) of the Neolithic (新石器的) Age. 1 , with each standing stone around 13 feet high and 7 feet wide. Because of its mystery, it attracts many visitors all over the world. 2 . Recently scientists say they have uncovered details about who built the 5,000-year-old prehistoric monument Stonehenge. The ancient stones in the southwest of England are famous all over the world. How Stonehenge was built has been a mystery for thousands of years. 3 . Researchers wrote in the Scientific Reports journal that some human bones found at the site were from the Preseli Mountains in west Wales. The researchers said the oldest human remains discovered so far date back to about 3000 BC, which is over 5,000 years ago. Stonehenge is a ring of standing monoliths — giant stones. Each standing stone is around 4 metres high and 2.1 metres wide. 4 . Scientists say Stonehenge was first used as a burial mound. The giant stones also came from the Preseli Mountains. Scientists are not sure how ancient people transported the giant stones to their site in Stonehenge. 5 . Researcher John Pouncett said, “People from the Preseli Mountains not only supplied the blue stones used to build the stone circle but moved with the stones and were buried there too.” A．They each weigh around 25 tons B．It consists of a ring of standing stones C．It is one of the landmarks of the country D．Today, nearly 1 million people visit Stonehenge every year E．A new study shows that the builders could have come from Wales, which is more than 160 kilometres away F．The prehistoric monument of Stonehenge has remained mysterious so far G．They now believe the people who were buried at Stonehenge helped transport the giant stones 三、完形填空 The 81-year-old good friends Ellie Hamby and Sandy Hazelip toured the world in 80 days, proving that adventure doesn’t have an age limit.

His friends were playing in the park across the road, their laughter filling the air, but Timmy didn’t join them. He was waiting for his mom to come home. Timmy’s mom, Mrs. Thompson, was a hard-working real estate agent (房地产经纪人). She was constantly on the go, showing houses to clients, attending meetings, and working late into the night. Most days, Timmy only saw her in the early morning rush before school or briefly in the evening when she was too tired to do much more than give him a quick hug. That day, when Mrs. Thompson finally pulled up in her car, she noticed Timmy’s sad expression. As she got out of the car, Timmy ran up to her, his eyes lighting up for a moment. “Mom, can we play a game today? Like we used to?” he asked hopefully. Mrs. Thompson looked at her watch and sighed. “Not today, honey. I have so much work to do. Maybe tomorrow.” Timmy’s shoulders slumped, and he quietly walked back to the steps. That evening, as Mrs. Thompson sat at her desk, going through piles of paperwork, she couldn’t get Timmy’s disappointed face out of her mind. She realized that she had been so focused on her career that she was missing out on her son’s childhood. After much thought, she made a decision. She would take some time off work to be with Timmy. The next morning, Mrs. Thompson called her boss and explained the situation. To her relief, her boss was understanding and gave her a week off. She then went to Timmy’s room with a big smile on her face. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 She said, “Timmy, I’m going to take a whole week off work, just for us!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, just as they were playing, Mrs. Thompson’s phone rang. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
