Ⅳ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了Ellie Hamby和Sandy Hazelip这两位84岁的老人的友谊与环球冒险经历,传递了“年龄不是追梦障碍”的积极理念。
1.D 细节理解题。根据第二段“The women’s friendship began over 20 years ago on a medical trip in Zambia, Africa.”可知,两人的友谊始于20多年前非洲赞比亚的一次医疗旅行,故选D。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第三段“The most interesting or unforgettable parts aren’t about the places, but about the people we met along the journey.”可知,两位老人认为旅行中最难忘的不是所到之地,而是沿途遇到的人。故选A。
3.D 词义猜测题。根据第四段“…a video on the Internet has received over 6 million views.”和“…they now get recognized in airports…”可知,她们的视频获得数百万次浏览,在机场还会被人认出,由此可推测sensations在此处指“广为人知的人、热门人物”。故选D。
4.B 推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,两位老人在80岁时仍计划80天环游世界,足迹遍布七大洲近50个国家,还著书分享经验,鼓励他人跳出舒适区追梦。由此可推断,她们将衰老视为“新成长的机会”,而非人生的终点。故选B。
Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要探讨了旅行的意义,作者通过自身经历阐述了旅行不仅仅是到达目的地,更重要的是沿途的经历和感受。
1.E 上文“When we set out to reach a destination, we often go through a lot of planning and preparation.”表明了为了到达目的地,人们会做很多准备工作。下文“In the process, the expectation and effort put into the journey are the most exciting parts.”强调了旅程中的期待和努力的重要性。选项E“通常也需要相当多的旅行时间。”与上下文衔接紧密,说明了在计划和准备之后,还需要花费时间在旅行上,且这个时间也是旅程的一部分,其中的期待和努力是最令人兴奋的。故选E。
2.G 下文“I would be anxious for the big days until I arrived at my chosen spot, thinking that reaching it was the main goal.”表明了作者在旅行初期的心态,即只关注目的地。选项G“在我刚开始旅行的时候,我只关注目的地。”与下文衔接紧密,引出了作者对旅行初期心态的描述。故选G。
3.B 上文“As the sun began to set, I looked around and was struck by the golden light shining on the mountains.”描述了作者被美丽的景色所震撼的情景。选项B“这简直太棒了。”是对上文描述的景色的感叹,符合语境。故选B。
4.F 上文“Suddenly, someone urged us to hurry up. One fellow traveller quickly jumped back into the car without taking a moment to appreciate the scenery.”描述了作者和一位同行者对待景色的不同态度。下文“While I was enjoying the journey and the beauty around us, he was focused solely on reaching our end point.”进一步强调了两者之间的差异。选项F“这一刻突显了我们心态上的巨大差异。”总结了上文描述的情景,并引出了下文对两者心态差异的进一步阐述。故选F。
5.D 上文“This experience taught me that travel and life are not just about getting to a destination.”表明了作者对旅行和生活的新的理解。选项D“它是关于我们一路上收集的时刻。”与上文衔接紧密,进一步阐述了作者对旅行和生活的理解,即旅行和生活是关于沿途的经历和感受。故选D。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者一家在毛里求斯一周的旅行经历,包括租车环岛、在印度洋游泳、参观景点、探索城镇等,还推荐把毛里求斯作为旅行目的地,并期待他人分享旅行体验。
1.to travel 考查非谓语动词。此处用动词不定式作目的状语,说明租车的目的是环岛旅行。故填to travel。
2.spent 考查动词时态。文章整体讲述的是过去的旅行经历,用一般过去时。故填spent。
3.amazing 考查形容词。空处修饰名词experience,用形容词amazing,表示“令人惊叹的”。故填amazing。
4.generally 考查副词。空处修饰整个句子,用副词形式generally。故填generally。
5.a 考查冠词。此处泛指“一顿美味的午餐”,且lovely发音以辅音音素开头,前面用不定冠词a。故填a。
6.which 考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词Grand Baie指物,在从句中作主语,用关系代词which。故填which。
7.with 考查介词。(be) packed with是固定搭配,意为“装满、塞满”。故填with。
8.offers 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句子描述的是毛里求斯客观具备的特点,用一般现在时,主语Mauritius是单数,谓语动词用单数形式offers。故填offers。
9.experiences 考查名词复数。experience作“体验”讲时是可数名词,此处指旅行中的各种体验,用复数形式experiences。故填experiences。
10.hearing 考查非谓语动词。look forward to doing sth是固定搭配,意为“期待做某事”。故填hearing。

Ellie Hamby and Dr Sandy Hazelip, both 84 and from Texas, have proven that adventure knows no age limit. They shared their journey together and what they have learned from the world at over 80 years old on the Internet—and, more importantly, how they made it happen.
The women’s friendship began over 20 years ago on a medical trip in Zambia, Africa. Later on in Texas, both women found themselves like travelling around the world. So the pair started their adventures together to “far-flung (遥远的) places” two decades ago, but it was their latest, most ambitious trip that brought them to the world’s attention. They planned to travel around the world in 80 days at the age of 80.
The global adventure has taken them nearly everywhere. “We’ve been to all seven continents (洲), most of the world’s wonders and to almost 50 countries,” Hamby said. “The most interesting or unforgettable parts aren’t about the places, but about the people we met along the journey. And of course, our journeys have not been without moments of excitement, including a trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway in 2011.”
Hamby and Hazelip said they had no idea their travels would turn them into social-media sensations, but they now get recognized in airports after a video on the Internet has received over 6 million views. Now they have realized the joy and inspiration they have provided for others, and they are pleased to share their message of friendship and adventure.
For those who may feel it is too late to live out their dreams, Hamby and Hazelip offered a powerful final message:“Get up out of your easy chair, step out of your comfort zone, make a plan and live.” They even penned a new book, Here We Go—Lessons for Living Fearlessly from Two Travelling Nanas, serving as a road map to live fully, no matter what your age.
( )1.What brought the pair together for the first time?
A.A travel club.
B.An interstate flight.

( )2.Which of the following made the pair’s journeys most memorable?
A.The people they came across.
B.The railway ride they experienced.
C.The famous wonders they saw.
D.The number of countries they visited.
( )3.What does the underlined word “sensations” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Harmful public events.
B.Interesting music symbols.
C.Funny cultural exchanges.
D.Widely talked-about persons.
( )4.What can be inferred about the pair’s views on aging?

How many of you feel a connection to this idea? When we set out to reach a destination, we often go through a lot of planning and preparation. 1. In the process, the expectation and effort put into the journey are the most exciting parts.
2. I would be anxious for the big days until I arrived at my chosen spot, thinking that reaching it was the main goal. But as I travelled more, my view began to change. I started to dive deeper into what each place had to offer. I learned to appreciate the local culture, meet the people, and engage in unique experiences.
I remember one night when we decided to take a trip that involved a four-hour drive. After two hours of driving, I was feeling tired. We decided to stop for tea to take a break. As the sun began to set, I looked around and was struck by the golden light shining on the mountains. 3. So I took my time enjoying my tea and the view.
Suddenly, someone urged us to hurry up. One fellow traveller quickly jumped back into the car without taking a moment to appreciate the scenery. 4. While I was enjoying the journey and the beauty around us, he was focused solely on reaching our end point.
This experience taught me that travel and life are not just about getting to a destination. 5. Each experience enriches our lives. When we allow ourselves to embrace the journey, we open the door to new opportunities and unforgettable memories.
