5. [2023全国乙]From Buddhist temples to museums, narrow hutong to royal palaces, it is
home to more than 3,000 years of glorious history even down to its layout, with the city keeping its carefully
_____(build) system of ring roads.
built
解析 考查动词-ed形式作定语。句意:从佛教寺庙到博物馆,从狭窄的胡同到皇家宫殿,它有着三千多
年辉煌的历史,甚至在它的布局上,这座城市一直保留着其精心建造的环形路体系。分析句子成分可
知,设空处作定语,修饰名词短语system of ring roads,两者之间是逻辑上的被动关系,应用动词-ed形式。
故填built。
易错归因 本题容易误填building。building system意为“建筑系统”,该短语为名词短语,不可以用
副词carefully来修饰,所以不能填building。

第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
解析
1.考查定语从句。设空处无提示词,“______ is the largest and wealthiest city in Canada”中缺少主语,此
处指“多伦多是加拿大最大和最富有的城市”,故推测设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰Toronto。
故填which。
2.考查并列连词。 设空处前后都是完整的句子且在意思上是顺承关系,应用并列连词and连接。
3.考查名词。to one's astonishment意为“令某人吃惊的是”。故填astonishment。
4.考查形容词。设空处修饰其后的名词复数clouds,应用形容词。故填misty。
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
5.考查动词的时态。分析句子成分可知,设空处在句中作谓语,由时间状语Late that night可知应用一般
过去时。故填proceeded。
6.考查动词不定式。be surprised to do sth.意为“吃惊地做某事”。故填to find。
7.考查冠词。accent表示“口音”时为可数名词,此处并非特指哪种口音,而是表示泛指,所以应用不定
冠词,又因accent的发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
8.考查动词-ing形式。设空处的逻辑主语是they,二者之间为主动关系,应用动词-ing 形式,构成“连词+
v.-ing”结构,在句中作时间状语。 故填having。
9.考查副词。设空处修饰动词made,应用副词。故填helpfully。
10.考查介词。with regret意为“遗憾地”。故填with。

解析
1.考查过去分词。句意:天津距北京仅一小段火车车程,是一个东西方交汇、传统与创新碰撞、历史魅
力与现代生活相融的充满活力的港口城市。主句中已有谓语动词is,所以设空处应用非谓语动词作状

2.考查定语从句。句意同上题。分析句子可知,设空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰表示地点的先行词

7.考查名词及其单复数。句意:除了建筑和美食,天津的自然和文化景观也深深吸引着游客。分析句子
可知,设空处作主语,应用名词;attract的名词形式attraction表示“吸引人的事物”时为可数名词,结合本
句谓语fascinate可知,主语为复数。故填attractions。
8.考查副词。句意:徒步旅行者经常热情地谈论那里令人惊叹的风景。设空处作状语修饰动词speak,应
用副词。故填enthusiastically。
9.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意同“长难句”。分析句子可知,设空处在Whether...or...引导的让

[2026河南商丘月考]
Travel has long been celebrated for its ability to transcend different countries, and connect people from
diverse backgrounds. Certain destinations may hold special appeal for different people. For example, some-
one who values adventure and outdoor activities may be more bound to visit destinations known for their
natural landscapes and outdoor amusement opportunities. On the other hand, someone with a strong love for
history may be drawn to destinations with rich history, tradition, and cultural diversity.
Portugal belongs to the latter. Tourism in this country plays a crucial role in promoting cross-cultural under-
standing and building meaningful connections between travelers and local communities. As travelers im-
merse(沉浸在) themselves in new experiences, engage with local communities, and step outside their com-
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
fort zones, they gain a deeper appreciation of the complexities of different cultures and perspectives.
Cultural exchange here is not just a concept—it is a lived experience that enriches the lives of both travelers
and locals. From participating in traditional festivals and cooking experiences to learning age-old customs,
travelers have countless opportunities to break down cultural barriers and connect with Portuguese culture
on a personal level.
In Portugal, tourism has become a chance of __________ diverse voices and stories that might otherwise go
unheard. Through initiatives such as community-based tourism projects and storytelling workshops, travel-
ers can engage with local communities in meaningful ways, promoting mutual(相互的) respect.
With the support of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF), Portugal is building roads, ex-
panding airports, and improving public transportation systems, making it easier for tourists to explore be-
yond popular cities like Lisbon and Porto. These improvements are vital for unlocking the potential of lesser

2.perspective n.态度;观点 3.improvement n.改进处;改善
【差距词汇】 1.transcend v.超出;超越 2.community-based adj.以社区为基础的
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
解析
1.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For example...someone with a strong love for history may be drawn
to destinations with rich history, tradition, and cultural diversity.”和第二段中的“Portugal belongs to the
latter.”可知,热爱历史的人则可能会被那些有着丰富历史、传统和文化多样性的目的地吸引,而葡萄
牙正属于此类,所以其特别之处在于其丰富的文化遗产。故选C。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Through initiatives such as community-based tourism projects and
storytelling workshops, travelers can engage with local communities in meaningful ways, promoting mutual
respect.”可知,游客可以通过参与基于社区的旅游活动加深对葡萄牙的跨文化理解。故选D。
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
3.B 词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“diverse voices and stories that might otherwise go unheard”可
知,否则这些不同的声音和故事可能会被忽视,由此推测画线词的意思应该和“忽视”相反,所以这里
的意思应该是旅游业已经成为一个“放大”各种声音和故事的机会,故画线词意为“放大,增强”,与B
项的意思相近。故选B。
4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“allowing visitors to experience the diverse landscapes and rich
cultural heritage found throughout the countryside...attracting a broader audience eager to discover new des-
tinations”可推测,葡萄牙开始大规模交通建设的主要目的应该是吸引更多游客探索其乡村地区。故
选D。

Whether you're heading out for a day trip or a quick weekend getaway(短期休假), we will share some
travel tips in this guide to help you make your experience more pleasant.
•Think about how you want to travel.
______ Sometimes it means the most enjoyable. Too much consideration on short journeys is not worth it. If
you've got a preference for a certain means of transport, it's often worth traveling that way for short dis-
tances, even if it ends up taking you a little longer.
•________
Some cities, like NYC, are quite walkable. Others simply aren't. In Amsterdam, the best way to get about is

第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
by bike—whether you use the city's shared bikes or rent one from your hotel. In Southeast Asia, you'd better
rent a scooter(小型摩托车). _________ So don't bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all answer.
•Try all the available options.
If you're not sure about the best means of transport for you, experience them all. See what catching the sub-
way is like and try cycling or riding the bus. It's hard to anticipate what will be the most convenient. LA has
a low-cost public transport network but car-pooling is cheaper, and scooters are the best for touring West
Hollywood. _________
•Don't rely on map apps.
Map apps are useful, but they don't take into account the possibility of packed subways, queues for taxis and
the heat of a train in summer. _____ So don't assume something is a 30-minute drive just because a map app
says so—by the time you've driven halfway, you might still have another 30 minutes to go.

体验。
【高频词汇】 1.enjoyable adj.令人愉快的
2.preference n.偏爱;爱好 3.bother v.费心;打扰;麻烦
4.available adj.可获得的;可用的 5.assume v.假设;假定;认为
【差距词汇】 1.one-size-fits-all adj.通用的 2.car-pooling n.合伙用车
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
解析
1.F 设空处位于段首,本段建议读者在选择如何旅行时要考虑个人的喜好;如果你偏好某种交通方式,
那么以这种方式短途旅行是值得的,即使它花费的时间略多。F项“最好的不一定意味着最快的”与
下文“Sometimes it means the most enjoyable.”形成对比,逻辑连贯。故选F。
2.C 设空处是本段的小标题,应概括本段的内容并给旅行者提供建议。本段提及了适合不同城市的
交通方式,说明了解目的地城市的情况对选择合适的交通方式至关重要。C项“研究你要前往旅行的
城市”符合语境。故选C。
第1讲 描述运动的基本概念
3.E 根据上文可知,本段提到不同的交通方式适合不同的城市;没有一种交通方式适合所有的城市。E
项“在这里适用的不一定在那里适用”与下文“So don't bother to find the so-called one-size-fits-all an-
swer.”构成因果关系,逻辑连贯。故选E。
4.D 本段建议读者尝试所有可用的交通方式,因为很难预测哪种方式最方便,所以只有全部尝试后才
能知道哪种方式最适合自己。设空处位于段尾,应是对本段内容的总结,呼应段落小标题。D项“直到
你把它们试遍后才会知道”符合语境。故选D。
5.G 根据下文可知,地图应用程序中的交通信息有时会与实际情况不符。G项“此外,它们稍微滞后
于实际交通时间”与下文构成递进关系,共同说明地图应用程序的弊端。故选G。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was in the early morning of one summer holiday that I was flying to Bali, Indonesia to see volcanoes.
And my best friend was waiting for my arrival there. When I got off the plane and stepped out of the airport,
I was thinking how unbelievable it was to stand in front of the spectacular volcano. The imaginary sights
distracted me, for a moment, from my current problem.
Only when I stood by the bus station waiting for the bus to Bali, did I realize that I had no enough cash on
me. The only ATM nearby didn't seem to have any power, and I nervously looked down at my credit card,
my only lifeline. I hoped there might be a way to convince the bus driver to let me on and pay him once I

reached the destination and got the cash from my friend.
When the bus door opened, I stood behind a young lady and her little girl. I started to worry, wondering
what I'd do if the credit card didn't make the cut. They boarded the bus, paid in cash and sat down in the first
row. When I approached the driver and held out my credit card, he looked at me seriously and shook his
head.
“I don't have any money,” I said. I showed him my wallet to confirm that I was telling the truth. He stared
back blankly and then said no. I still wanted to convince him again. I pulled up my flight information on my
phone and showed it to him. I pointed to the nearby ATM and signaled that it didn't work. This time, he
looked at me and apologized to me. “I'm really sorry. Can you make way for the other passengers?”
I stood aside. “What should I do?” I hesitated. It was the first time that I had visited the city. I was unfa-
miliar with everything around me. I searched the locations of other ATMs in the area. They were too far
