B
(2026·浙江学军中学月考)There's an inner desire amongst most people to explore our planet. There's a sense in modern society that somehow we will find a better existence or we'll find happiness by going on holiday. I think we've almost been conditioned to become tourists, to the extent that a lot of people engage in tourism without actually considering why they're doing so.
课后检测能力达标
There are plenty of people who will go to the same place every year, because they're comfortable and familiar with it. People are experiencing less and less the places they are at. They might be there in body, but not necessarily in mind, because a lot of people are constantly thinking: “How am I going to present myself to my social media group back home through my posts on social media platforms?”
课后检测能力达标
But this is just one side of the problem. On the other side, our travel has taken a toll on the environment. It is reported that the carbon emissions from air travel accounted for 2.5% of global emissions in 2019, and this figure may be three times by 2050.
课后检测能力达标
I admit that there has been a considerable increase in people's awareness about the environment. And some people say that this can eventually lead to a shift in our behavior as tourists. However, I can't share their optimism. A lot of research has been done into the extent to which tourists are willing to adapt their behavior. And even those people who regularly consume or behave in an environmentally friendly fashion actually temporarily forget their environmental commitments, and behave like normal tourists. They do suffer some kind of eco-guilt, but nevertheless they continue to travel, and they continue to fly.
课后检测能力达标
I'm old enough to remember when tourism was just the summer holiday, and you would look forward to those two weeks a year when you would go on holiday. It was special and meaningful, but nowadays it is so easy to travel. Travel is now seen as a right, not as a privilege. However, to some extent, I hope there will be a significant rise in the cost of travel, or at least in air travel. In my opinion, only in this way can people realize the value of travel experience and really enjoy it. Also, only in this way can many problems arising with the development of tourism be properly solved.

Ⅱ.七选五
(2026·深圳一模)Green roofs have been around for thousands of years, long before modern housing was developed.

In the design of a green roof, there are key factors that count.

2.G 解析:根据上文“The first step...prevent water damage.”可知,此段围绕绿色屋顶防护层展开。G项是对防护层作用的进一步说明,符合语境。
