Ⅳ.阅读理解
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have.Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil,seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how great it must have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia.His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard,leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world,and travel is a way of life to them.They perhaps know what to expect before they travel.That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time.Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States.Of course,they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV,and the White House,and all the other famous sights.But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands,watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation,it’s also educational.We may not know that we are getting an education,but we still are.
We’re learning every day:new words in a new language,new people,and new ways of life.But this learning takes place in the school of the world,not the classroom.As we get to know foreign places,we come to understand that there are many different ways to live,and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way.
1.Why does the author use Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples?
A.To explain how the Silk Road was founded.
B.To present travel as an amazing experience.
C.To show how the way people travel has changed.
D.To describe important cultural exchanges in history.
2.By saying “the best travel is when it’s for the first time”,the author means .
A.one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B.no other trip is better than one’s first trip
C.there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D.people usually make better preparations for their first trip
3.What does the underlined word “recreation” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Fun B.Risk. C.Learning. D.Knowledge.
Ⅴ.七选五
London is considered as one of the greatest cities on Earth.From historical sites to the modern-day metropolis,it can seem an infinite feast of activities and possibilities.For the budget-minded traveler,London might not appear to be the most wallet-friendly destination. 1 There is a wide selection of free things to do in London,as long as you know where to look.
One of the most surprisingly free things to do in London is visit top museums and art galleries. 2 For those who prefer museums with an archeological feel,the British Museum charges no admission,and contains such cultural treasures as the Rosetta Stone.Many other museums are also free to visit,although some offer access to special traveling exhibits for a fee.
London has a long history of influencing the musical world,and the wise traveler knows that concerts are some of the best free things to do here in various seasons.Particularly in the summer,free concerts are available along the banks of the Thames River,and frequently advertised in entertainment guides. 3 Covent Garden,a theater and shopping district,is famous for its free performances,and even auditions musicians before allowing them to perform.
4 For instance,Charles Dickens’s fans may take a stroll through Camden Town,following in the footsteps of Bob Cratchit.For those desperate for a glimpse into the world of Harry Potter,go to King’s Cross Station,where you can see for yourself if Platform Nine-and-three-quarters really exists...
While London is full of exciting opportunities for the luxury traveler,it doesn’t exclude those on a budget.The free things to do in London will often help travelers escape from the tourist attractions and catch a look at local life. 5
A.However,this is not the case.
B.Literary lovers will find many free things to do in London.
C.That’s because London is among the world’s priciest cities.
D.The National Gallery is free to visitors favoring world-class paintings.
E.Even in winter,certain areas are usually crowded with musicians and performers.
F.Nobody can refuse such charming music with the beautiful scenery along the river.
G.Combining them with some well-chosen costly additions will give you a balanced look at the beautiful city.

Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。作者介绍了对于预算有限的游客可以在伦敦做的一些免费的事情。
1.A 根据上文“London might not appear to be the most wallet-friendly destination”及下文“There is a wide selection of free things to do in London,as long as you know where to look.”可知,两句之间存在转折。由此可知,A项与上下文逻辑一致。
2.D 上文“One of the most surprisingly free things to do in London is visit top museums and art galleries.”及空后两句均为介绍其他适合不同品位的人的一些免费的博物馆,由此可知,空格处也会介绍免费的博物馆美术馆之类的信息。由此可知,D项与上下文逻辑一致。

5.G 根据上文“The free things to do in London will often help travelers escape from the tourist attractions and catch a look at local life.”可知,此处讲述的是免费的资源。G项中的them指代的是上文中的免费资源,与文段逻辑一致。

2.D 根据上文“And they decided to there for two weeks in spring”可知,他们打算停留两周。结合生活常识可知要选择天气好的时候旅行。
3.A 根据下文“But their trip was more like a nightmare!”可知,他们的旅行更像是一场噩梦。“their trip”与空格处呼应。故选A项。
4.C 根据“the flight was put off because of bad weather”可知,航班因为坏天气被推迟,是旅行刚开始就出现的问题。
5.B 根据上文“The problem when the flight was put off because of bad weather.”以及下文“They finally got on the plane twelve hours later.”可知,航班被推迟了,他们12小时之后上了飞机。由此推测出他们直到夜里才坐上飞机离开。
6.A 根据文章最后一段中“The worst part was when the storm came...”可知,最糟糕的部分是暴风雨来临的时候,所以他们遇上了暴风雨。
7.D 根据上文“But they couldn’t fly to Maldives because there was a .”可知,他们不能飞往马尔代夫,只能飞去首都作为代替。
8.A 根据句意及选项可知,此处表达的是机场附近的小旅馆。
9.C 根据下文“And the hotel’s swimming pool was full of leaves!”可知,海水很“脏”无法游泳。
