The results of his analysis show individuals who pay more attention to tourism-related information and frequently discuss their travel plans with friends are more likely to go on regular vacations than those who aren’t constantly thinking about their next trip.“While things like work, family life and friends play a bigger role in overall reports of well-being, the accumulation (积累) of travel experiences does appear to have a small yet noticeable effect on self-reported life satisfaction,” Chen said.Participants in the study were asked about the importance of travel in their lives, how much time they spent looking into and planning future vacations, and how many trips they went on over a year. They were also asked about their life satisfaction. Out of the 500 survey participants, a little over half reported going on more than four pleasure trips a year. Only 7% of respondents did not take any vacations.As travel restriction (限制) due to COVID-19 pandemic begin to relax in the future, the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry. Based on the results of the study, Chen said travel companies, resorts and even airlines, could launch social media campaigns, such as creating signs about the scientific benefits of vacation, to spark people’s interest in discussing their opinions about travel.12. What is the benefit of frequent travelling according to the study?A. Getting more tourism information. B. Making more friends.C. Bettering tourism industry. D. Improving one’s well-being.13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A. Why the professor carried out the study.B. How the participants felt about the survey.C. What the participants were interviewed about.D. What the participants planned to do in the future.14. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Tourism industry should improve their service.B. The results of the study will benefit tourism industry.C. COVID-19 pandemic will be more serious in the future.D. People will live a happier life after COVID-19 pandemic.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Travel more and be happierB. Make good use of travellingC. Prepare for the tourism developmentD. Make travel plans with friends第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。In sports, the main goal is to win. However, achieving this requires more than just physical skills.

He had been to the camping site across the river many times with his friends.But this time, it was different. Now he was with family: his wife and his 13-year-old son. And as they approached the river late in the afternoon, he found that the usually quiet river had turned wild due to a heavy rain two days before. It was impossible for them to cross the river to reach the camping site or return because it was too late.“We cannot camp in the wildness and I have to send out a message for rescue,” Whitson thought.He looked around and found a stick. He pulled out his pocketknife and carved “Help” in it. Then he tied a red rope to catch people's attention. He threw it into the river, but it did not float far and got stuck.“Why not try our luck with our green Nalgene water bottle and put a note in it?” suggested his wife,Whitson did as he was told and carved the word “help” on it before he threw the bottle into the river. This time, it worked perfectly.“All right, we have tried our best to get help,” Whitson said, “But we should not just wait in this dangerous wildness in case…”They walked up and down along the river bank for about 30 minutes and found a flat place to set up their tents. They collected enough dead branches and wood to keep a campfire going on all night. As the darkness closed in, they placed on the top of the camp a headlamp with its flashing light on. They waited until 10: 30 pm. But nothing happened. So they went to bed. Before turning in, Whitson added more wood to the fire to keep the dangerous animals away.注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Shortly after midnight, they heard a helicopter circling above their tents.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________When the officers dropped them back at the rescue center, the family learned more about the whole story.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
