[话题 孩子们的旅行方式 ]
When my children were little, we went to Mexico, Switzerland, Argentina — places we adults wanted to explore, and the kids cheerfully tagged along. But when my son turned 10, he declared, “I don't really like to travel.” It broke my heart.
My daughter caught_the_travel_bug early. By 13, she was drawn to cafes, shops and museums in Europe. My son, however, dragged his feet at the Louvre, asking, “Can we just go back to the hotel now?” I felt crushed.
Still, I pushed for a trip to Egypt before my daughter left for college. After I promised him screen time, my son agreed. It came as no surprise he was reluctant, but what I didn't foresee was that Egypt would be the destination that clicked.
The first sign came at the Grand Egyptian Museum. My son, who usually speedwalks through museums, stopped to read the information cards and studied exhibits. My husband and I exchanged glances, afraid acknowledging it would break the spell. At the Temple of Karnak, my son leaned forward, listening to our guide explain how 80,000 labourers built this place over 1,300 years ago. At the Valley of the Kings, we stood in Tutankhamun's burial chamber. “He's much smaller than I imagined,” he said. Suddenly, he was explaining hieroglyphics (象形文字) to us, and asking our guide about burial practices. My husband whispered, “I can hardly believe it.”
A visit to the Kom Ombo Temple sparked a debate between my teens about ancient Egyptian religion. That's when I realized what had been wrong all along. I'd been dragging him through my version of travel. My son needed a hook, something that would connect to what he was curious about at that moment.
Our Egypt trip taught me that not all kids will love travel the way you do, but they might love their version of it. My daughter thrives on aesthetic (审美的) experiences. My son needs a narrative, historical context, and physical places to touch. Maybe your reluctant traveller doesn't hate travel either. Maybe they're just waiting for you to help them find their version of it.

[语篇解读] 文章讲述作者通过埃及之旅发现孩子各有自己的旅行方式。
1.A [词句猜测题。根据第二段中“By 13, she was drawn to cafes, shops and museums in Europe.(到13岁时,她就被欧洲的咖啡馆、商店和博物馆所吸引。)”可知,女儿很早就热衷于旅行。caught the travel bug意为“爱上旅行/热衷旅行”。]
2.A [推理判断题。根据第四段中“My son, who usually speedwalks through museums, stopped to read the information cards and studied exhibits.(我儿子,通常在博物馆里快步走过,却停下来阅读信息卡并研究展品。)”以及“Suddenly, he was explaining hieroglyphics (象形文字) to us, and asking our guide about burial practices.(突然,他开始给我们解释象形文字,并向导游询问丧葬习俗。)”可知,儿子在埃及旅行时在智力层面投入。]
3.C [推理判断题。根据第五段中“My son needed a hook, something that would connect to what he was curious about at that moment.(我儿子需要一个吸引点,能与他当时好奇的东西联系起来的东西。)”以及最后一段“My daughter thrives on aesthetic (审美的) experiences.My son needs a narrative, historical context, and physical places to touch.(我女儿在审美体验中茁壮成长。我儿子需要叙事、历史背景和可以触摸的实体场所。)”可知,孩子们版本的旅行的关键要素是他们各自的具体兴趣。]
4.A [主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是最后一段“Our Egypt trip taught me that not all kids will love travel the way you do, but they might love their version of it.(我们的埃及之旅教会了我,并非所有孩子都会像你一样热爱旅行,但他们可能会热爱属于自己的旅行方式。)”可知,文章主要讲述了一次让作者顿悟的旅行。]
Ⅱ.七选五
[话题 在旅行中获得良好休息的建议]
With sleep tourism on the rise, hotels are beginning to take sleep more seriously.Here are some of tips for getting some rest while traveling.
1__
When we're at home, our bodies relax more easily.Whether it's new sounds or smells, our brains are on highalert and scanning the hotel room as unfamiliar terrain.
So find ways to bring the sensory familiarity of home to your hotel room.Candles are a hard no in hotel rooms, so pack a favorite perfume, lotion, or essential oil that can supplement a warm shower.
Tackle your worries
2__ . The trip may involve difficult family matters or work stress, but typically the things that are keeping us from falling asleep are not ones that you can act on at that moment.We've all heard about the benefits of a gratitude journal, but don't underestimate the power of the worry journal.
Write all of these worries down on a piece of paper as a way to relieve your brain from the burden of them and focus on the task at hand—sleeping.
Stick to your routine
Good sleep is all about routine.Meditating, taking a long shower, using your favorite night cream or turning off your phone, your prebed routine from home are key. __3__ . Your brain starts to understand what comes next is sleep.
Get out of bed
It's 3 a.m.local time, but your internal clock is still set five hours earlier. __4__ . If you're struggling, especially in a new time zone, get yourself out of bed, tossing and turning won't help you.
Do your research
5__ . While there are many things you can do to ensure a good night's sleep while traveling, there are an increasing number of hotels that are eager to help you on your journey.
A.Hard as you try, you just can't fall asleep
B.Repeating those activities while traveling will ease your body and spirit
C.Try reading a book or listening to calming music until you feel sleepy
D.Find the familiar in the unfamiliar
E.Most importantly, find a hotel that takes its hospitality seriously
F.Avoid caffeine and heavy meals before bedtime to ensure a restful night
G.We don't always travel for leisure
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章提供了一些在旅行中获得良好休息的建议。
1.D [根据下文“When we're at home, our bodies relax more easily.Whether it's new sounds or smells, our brains are on highalert and scanning the hotel room as unfamiliar terrain.So find ways to bring the sensory familiarity of home to your hotel room.(当我们在家的时候,我们的身体更容易放松。无论是新的声音还是气味,我们的大脑都会高度警觉,将酒店房间视为陌生的环境。因此,找到方法将家中的感官熟悉感带到你的酒店房间。)”可知,这里强调的是在陌生环境中寻找熟悉感,在酒店找到家的感觉。与D项“Find the familiar in the unfamiliar(在不熟悉中寻找熟悉)”表达的含义一致。]
2.G [根据下文“The trip may involve difficult family matters or work stress, but typically the things that are keeping us from falling asleep are not ones that you can act on at that moment.(旅行可能涉及棘手家庭事务或工作压力,但通常让我们难以入睡的事情并不是你当时可以采取行动的。)”可知,旅行可能涉及困难或压力,可推理出此处说的是有时候我们旅行是因为遇到压力和困难。与G项“We don't always travel for leisure(我们并不总是为了休闲而旅行)”表达的含义一致。]
3.B [根据上文“Good sleep is all about routine.Meditating, taking a long shower, using your favorite night cream or turning off your phone, your prebed routine from home are key.(良好睡眠全在于日常作息。冥想、洗个长时间的淋浴、使用你最喜欢的晚霜或关掉手机,你在家的睡前常规活动是关键。)”可知,上文说的是良好的睡眠全在于日常作息,可推理出下文说的是保持日常作息对于睡眠的重要性。与B项“Repeating those activities while traveling will ease your body and spirit(在旅行中重复这些活动将使你的身体和精神放松)”表达的含义一致。]
4.A [根据下文“If you're struggling, especially in a new time zone, get yourself out of bed, tossing and turning won't help you.(如果你在挣扎,尤其是在新的时区,让自己离开床,辗转反侧不会帮助你。)”可知,下文讨论的是如何应对失眠,可推理出此处说的是无法入睡。与A项“Hard as you try, you just can't fall asleep(尽管你努力,但你就是无法入睡)”表达的含义一致。]
5.E [根据下文“While there are many things you can do to ensure a good night's sleep while traveling, there are an increasing number of hotels that are eager to help you on your journey.(虽然有很多事情你可以做以确保在旅行中有一个良好的夜晚睡眠,但越来越多的酒店渴望在你的旅途中帮助你。)”可知,有很多酒店渴望在你的旅途中帮助你,可推理出此处说的是选择重视其接待服务的酒店。与E项“Most importantly, find a hotel that takes its hospitality seriously(最重要的是,要找到一家真正重视其接待服务的酒店)”表达的含义一致。]
