一、阅读理解
Passage 1
In an age where budget airlines and high-speed trains have made travel faster and more accessible than
ever,a counter-movement known as"slow travel"is gaining momentum.This philosophy,which
emphasizes quality over quantity,encourages travellers to spend more time in fewer places,immersing
themselves in local cultures rather than rushing from one tourist attraction to another.
The concept of slow travel emerged as a response to the "checklist tourism"that has dominated the
industry for decades.Instead of visiting ten cities in ten days,slow travellers might spend a month in a
single village,leaming the language,participating in community activities,and building genuine
connections with residents.This approach not only provides a deeper understanding of a destination but
also reduces the environmental impact of frequent transportation.
Psychologists have noted that slow travel often leads to greater satisfaction.A study published in the
Journal of Travel Research found that travellers who spent at least two weeks in one location reported
significantly higher levels ofrelaxation and cultural engagement compared to those who changed
destinations every few days.The researchers attributed this to the reduced stress of constant packing and
unpacking,as well as the opportunity to establish routines in unfamiliar settings
However,slow travel is not without its challenges.It requires more time,which many people simply do
not have due to work commitments.It can also be more expensive in terms of accommodation costs.
although this can be offset by savings on transportation.Moreover,it demands a certain mindseta
willingness to embrace uncertainty and to find joy in the ordinary rather than the extraordinary.
Despite these obstacles,the slow travel movement continues to grow,particularly among younger
generations who value experiences over possessions.Travel companies have begun to adapt,offering
longer-term rental options and curated programs that allow visitors to volunteer or study abroad.As one
advocate put it,"The best way to see the world is not to collect countries like stamps,but to let a few
places collect you.
()1.What is the main characteristic of slow travel?
A.Visiting as many places as possible
B.Spending extended time in fewer locations
C.Using budget airlines to save money
D.Travelling only to remote areas
()2.According to the passage,what was the result of the study in the Journal of Travel Research?
A.Frequent travellers reported more cultural engagement
B.Longer stays led to higher levels of satisfaction
C.Changing destinations reduced travel stress
D.Short trips were more environmentally friendly
()3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a challenge of slow travel?
A.Time constraints due to work
B.Higher accommodation expenses
C.The need for a specific attitude
D.Difficulty in finding local fiiends
()4.The word "offset"in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to:
A.Increase
B.Compensate for
C.Reduce
D.Eliminate
()5.What can be inferred about the future of slow travel?
A.It will replace traditional tourism completely
B.It is likely to become more popular and accessible
C.It will remain a niche movement for the wealthy
D.It will be banned by travel agencies
Passage 2
For centuries,maps have been more than mere tools for navigation;they are cultural artefacts that reflect
and shape our understanding of the world.From the medieval mappa mundi to modemn satellite imagery,
each map tells a story about the society that created it,revealing assumptions about geography,power,
and human relationships.
The earliest known maps,dating back to 6th century BC Babylon,depicted the world as a flat disc
surrounded by ocean,with Babylon at its centre.This perspective was not simply a lack of geographical
knowledge but a reflection of Babylonian cosmology-their belief that their city was the heart of
civilisation.Similarly,European maps from the Age of Exploration often placed Europe at the centre,
with other continents arranged around it in ways that emphasised European dominance.
The Mercator projection,developed by Gerardus Mercator in 1569,revolutionised navigation by
preserving accurate angles for sea routes.However,this came at a cost:it dramatically distorted the size of
landmasses near the poles.Greenland appears roughly the same size as Africa on a Mercator map,even
though Africa is actually fourteen times larger.Critics argue that this distortion has perpetuated a
"Northemn bias"in global consciousness,making developed nations in the Northern Hemisphere appear
more significant than their actual land area would suggest.
Modem digital maps have introduced their own biases.Google Maps,for instance,uses algorithms that
prioritise speed and efficiency,often ignoring scenic routes or culturally significant paths in favour of the
fastest connection.Furthermore,these platforms rely on data from users,which can result in certain areas
being overrepresented while others remain invisible.A 2019 study found that streets in affluent
neighbourhoods were mapped with much greater accuracy than those in poorer districts,potentially
affecting emergency services and delivery logistics.
Despite these limitations,maps remain indispensable.Indigenous communities have begun using GPS
technology to document traditional lands and preserve oral histories,creating what some scholars call
"counter-maps"that challenge official narratives.These digital tools,combined with traditional
knowledge,offer a more inclusive vision of geography-one that acknowledges multiple ways of
understanding place.
The next time you glance at a map,whether on paper or on a screen,consider not only where you are
going but also who created that representation of the world,and what perspective they might have left
out.
()1.What does the author suggest about early maps?
A.They were scientifically inaccurate
B.They reflected cultural beliefs and biases
C.They were primarily used for navigation
D.They were created by ordinary people
()2.What is the main criticism of the Mercator projection?
A.It is difficult to read and understand
B.It inaccurately represents the size of continents
C.It focuses too much on the Southemn Hemisphere
D.It is outdated and no longer used
()3.According to the passage,how do modem digital maps create biases?
A.By including all routes equally
B.By prioritising speed over cultural significance
C.By using satellite imagery exclusively
D.By ignoring user preferences
()4.The term "counter-maps"in paragraph 5 refers to maps that:
A.Are created by goverment agencies
B.Challenge dominant perspectives
C.Use only traditional methods
D.Focus on polar regions
()5.What is the author's overall purpose in writing this passage?
A.To criticise modern map-making technology
B.To explain the historical development of maps
C.To encourage critical thinking about maps
D.To promote the use of traditional navigation
二、完形填空
The joumey from London to Edinburgh by train is one of the most beautiful in the world.As the train
pulled out of King's Cross Station,I settled into my seat,
to enjoy the four-hour trip through the
English countryside
The first hour passed
as we travelled through suburban towns and industrial areas.I occupied
myself with a book,occasionally glancing up at the grey sky.But
we reached Yorkshire,the
landscape began to transform.Green hills rolled into view,dotted with sheep and
stone walls
that had stood for centuries.
I found myself
my phone to take photos,though I knew no image could capture the feeling of
being there.The woman sitting next to me,an elderly Scot returning home after visiting her daughter,
noticed my enthusiasm and began to stories about the places we passed.She pointed out a
castle where Mary Queen of Scots had once
and a valley where the world's first steam
locomotive had been tested.
Her」
transformed the journey.What had been merely beautiful scenery became a living history
book.I leamned about the border battles between England and Scotland,the industrial revolution that had
the northemn cities,and the folklore that still
in remote villages
As we crossed the border into Scotland,the landscape became wilder and more dramatic.The hills grew
higher,and the
seemed to change from moment to moment."You'll see the Forth Bridge soon,"
my companion said."It's a
of engineering."When it appeared,I understood why.The massive
red steel structure
the Firth of Forth,a testament to Victorian ambition and skill.
Arriving in Edinburgh as the sun was setting,I felt as though I had
more than just a city.I had
gained a deeper appreciation for the stories that
places with meaning.The journey itself had
become the destination.

三、阅读短文回答问题
Read the following passage and answer the questions in complete sentences.
For many travellers,packing is the most stressful part of preparing for a trip.The desire to be prepared for
every possible situation often results in heavy suitcases filled with items that remain unused.Experienced
travellers,however,have mastered the art of packing light,a skill that not only saves money on baggage
fees but also enhances the travel experience itself.
The philosophy behind packing light is simple:you are travelling to discover new places,not to cary
your home on your back.Every item in your bag should serve at least two purposes.A sarong,for
example,can function as a towel,a blanket,a scarf,a beach mat,or even a makeshift curtain.Similarly,a
pair of lightweight hiking shoes can be appropriate for both city walking and light trekking.
Clothing choices follow the"layering principle."Instead of packing heavy jackets for cold weather,
travellers bring multiple thin layers that can be combined or removed as conditions change.Synthetic
fabrics that dry quickly are preferred over cotton,which stays wet for hours and adds unnecessary weight
when damp.Most minimalists recommend packing no more than one week's worth of clothing,regardless
of trip length,and planning to do laundry along the way.
The psychological benefit of packing light is equally important.With less luggage,travellers can move
more freely through airports,train stations,and city streets.They are less likely to become targets for theft,
as bulky luggage signals tourist status.More importantly,a lighter load reduces physical strain and mental
fatigue,allowing for greater spontaneity.When you are not weighed down by possessions,you are more
likely to take an unplanned detour,climb a set of stairs to a viewpoint,or simply walk instead of taking a
taxi
Of course,packing light requires discipline and careful planning.It means accepting that you might not
have exactly the right outfit for every occasion,and that you might need to buy a few items along the
way.But for those who embrace it,the freedom gained far outweighs the convenience sacrificed.As one
long-term traveller put it,"The less you cany,the more you can experience."
1.According to the passage,what is the main advantage of packing light besides saving money?
2.What is the "layering principle"in clothing,as described in the passage?
3.Why does the author suggest using synthetic fabrics instead of cotton for travel clothing?
4.How does packing light contribute to personal safety during travel?
5.What attitude does the author suggest travellers should have towards not having the perfect outfit for
every occasion?
四、短文填空
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。
Preparing for a long journey requires careful planning.First,you need to check your
to make
sure it hasn't expired.If you are travelling to a foreign country,you may need to apply for a
several weeks in advance.Don't forget to exchange some
before you leave,as airport
exchange rates are often
for customers.
For the flight itself,pack your
luggage with essentials:a change of clothes,medications,and
any
items like jewellery or electronics.Remember that liquids over 100ml must go in your
baggage.It's also wise to bring a
for your host if you are staying with a local family.
When choosing what to wear on the plane,
is key.Wear loose clothing and
so you
can adjust to temperature changes.Compression socks are
for long flights to prevent swelling.
Once you arrive,having a_
map on your phone can help you navigate.If you plan to use public
transportation,research the
options in advance.Some cities have excellent metro systems,
while
rely on buses or taxis.Finally,always keep a
copy of your accommodation
address in the local language-it can be a lifesaver if you get lost.

Dear Tom,
I'm glad to hear that you're planning a trip to China.I'd like to recommend a route from Beijing to
Xi'an,which offers a perfect combination of history and culture.
Start with 4-5 days in Beijing.Visit the Great Wall,the Forbidden City,and the Summer Palace.Don't
miss tying Peking duck and exploring the hutongs by rickshaw.Then take a high-speed train to Xi'an
where you can see the Terracotta Warriors and cycle on the ancient City Wall.The Muslim Quarter is a
great place to taste local snacks like biangbiang noodles.
