Chun-Chu Chen,an assistant professor at Washington State University,conducted a survey to find out why some individuals(个人) travel more often than others and whether or not travel and tourism experiences have a lasting effect on happiness and wellness. In addition,participants(参与者) in the survey who reported often traveling at least 75 miles away from home also reported being about 7% happier when asked about their general well-being than those who reported traveling very seldom or not at all.The results of his analysis show individuals who pay more attention to tourism-related information and often discuss their travel plans with friends are more likely to go on regular vacations than those who aren’t thinking about their next trip. “Though things like work,family life and friends play a bigger role in general reports of well-being,travel experiences do appear to have a small yet noticeable effect on self-reported life satisfaction,” Chen said. Participants in the study were asked about the importance of travel in their lives,how much time they spent looking into and planning future vacations,and how many trips they went on over a year.They were also asked about their life satisfaction.Out of the 500 survey participants,a little over half reported going on more than four pleasure trips a year.Only 7% of them did not take any vacations. As travel restrictions (限制) begin to relax in the future,the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry.Based on the results of the study,Chen said travel companies,resorts and even airlines could start social media campaigns,such as creating signs about the scientific advantages of vacations,to start people’s interest in discussing their opinions about travel. 9.What is the advantage of travelling often according to the study? A.Improving one’s well-being. B.Making more friends. C.Getting more tourism information. D.Bettering the tourism industry. 10.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A.What the participants planned to do in the future. B.What the participants were interviewed about. C.How the participants felt about the survey. D.Why the professor carried out the study. 11.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.People will live a happier life in the future. B.The results of the study will be useful to the tourism industry. C.Economic crisis will be more serious in the future. D.The tourism industry should improve their service. 12.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.Travel more and be happier B.Make good use of travelling C.Make travel plans with friends D.Prepare for the tourism development 参考答案 Ⅰ.1.is recognised　2.for　3.with　4.amazing　5.arrangements　6.extremely　7.powerful　8.officially　9.accommodation　10.is Ⅱ.1.take control of　2.is made up of　3.is unique to　4.other than　5.apply for Ⅲ.1.It is the tourist destination that　2.spent two hours visiting the ancient castle　3.Gone are the days　4.so that he had to find another accommodation　5.As/When my mother sang those old songs Ⅳ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了西班牙巴伦西亚的观光事宜。 1.C　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Valencia has old buildings from past centuries,as well as modern buildings that add to its unique style.”可知,让巴伦西亚独特的地方就在于,它既有着几世纪前的建筑,也有着现代建筑。 2.B　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“One of the advantages of Valencia is its location on the Mediterranean coast.”可知,巴伦西亚位于地中海沿岸,故选B项。 3.D　细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“If you’re wondering where to stay in Valencia,here are some suggestions:For luxurious hotels,look for centre areas in the city.”可知,如果想要住得奢华的话,可以选择在巴伦西亚的市中心寻找奢华的酒店。 4.A　推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“If you’re looking for an exciting suggestion for your next trip,consider Valencia in Spain!”以及后文对巴伦西亚观光事宜的介绍可知,本文是一篇旅游介绍的文章,故很可能出现在报纸的旅游板块。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一群乘坐双层巴士环游世界的陌生人在50年后重聚,他们很高兴见到彼此并分享他们的感受和旅途中难忘的记忆的故事。 5.B　推理判断题。根据第一段以及下文可推知,第一段主要是为了介绍50年后重聚的主题。 6.D　细节理解题。根据第三段中“It is worth mentioning that the roads were entirely different in Central and South America.We were climbing mountains.It was an adventure.”可知,车队在中美洲和南美洲需要面临山路,这对于车队来说是一次挑战。 7.C　细节理解题。根据第四段可知,他们的公共汽车沉入河中让旅游者停止了他们的旅程。 8.C　主旨大意题。根据第一段以及全文可知,文章主要讲述了一群乘坐双层巴士环游世界的陌生人在50年后重聚,他们很高兴见到彼此并分享他们的感受和在旅途中难忘的记忆。所以“一次难忘的旅行”适合作本文的标题。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述经常旅游的人比那些根本不旅游的人感觉自己的生活更幸福。频繁旅游可以改善人们的生活,使人变得更快乐。 9.A　细节理解题。根据第一段可知,频繁旅游给人带来的好处是改善生活,使人变得更幸福。 10.B　主旨大意题。根据第五段中“Participants in the study were asked about...They were also asked about their life satisfaction.”可知,本段主要讲参与研究者被问到的内容。 11.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As travel restrictions begin to relax in the future,the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry.”可知,该研究结果将对旅游业有益。 12.A　主旨大意题。根据第一段以及下文可知,文章讲述经常旅游的人比那些根本不旅游的人感觉自己的生活更幸福。频繁旅游可以改善人们的生活,使人变得更快乐。所以A项Travel more and be happier符合语境,适合作为本文的标题。故选A项。 8 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
