Peru is famously known as the “land of the Incas”. A trip to Peru has been on my wish list for quite a while. It was finally time for me to visit the country.
My first day started in Lima, the capital of Peru. I met with the G Adventures representative (代表) here about the tour. G Adventures is an organization that helps you to connect with other like-minded people in small group-based travel adventures. They played a big part in helping to make Peru an unforgettable experience for me! In Lima, my representative discussed the plan of my tour, and I also had the chance to explore Lima in my own time, with many activities, including a city tour, show, biking tour, and more.
Day two had me taking a flight from Lima to Cusco. Many people visit Cusco for shopping but for me, the main reason for spending a day or two in Cusco was to acclimatize (适应) to the altitude (海拔). As I’d decided to reach the wonder of Machu Picchu, acclimatizing had become important to avoid altitude sickness. I was happy to spend a day exploring Cusco. Cusco was once the capital of the Inca Empire. Today, it’s famous for its artists, paintings, clothing and traditional instruments. There’s something for everyone in this city.
The day finally came! Day three had me enjoying a lovely guided visit to Machu Picchu at sunrise. I had free time to explore the city on my own as well as with my guide. It was a lot to take in! I had to stop for a moment and felt the energy of such an ancient city. The history here was unbelievable and I will never forget my time here for as long as I live!
4. What is the author’s attitude to G Adventures?
A. Doubtful. B. Satisfied.
C Uninterested. D. Hopeful.
5. Why did the author stay at Cusco?
A. To go shopping.
B. To find a local guide.
C. To get used to the high altitude.
D. To do research about the Inca Empire.
6. How did the author feel when traveling around Machu Picchu?
A. Full of excitement. B. Out of luck.
C. Lost in doubt. D. Deep in regret.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. My love of traveling B. My wonderful trip to Peru
C. Peru: the “land of the Incas” D. Traveling: the future of Peru
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者旅游秘鲁的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段“G Adventures is an organization that helps you to connect with other like-minded people in small group-based travel adventures. They played a big part in helping to make Peru an unforgettable experience for me! (G Adventures是一个组织，帮助您在基于小组的旅行冒险中与其他志同道合的人建立联系。他们在帮助让秘鲁成为我难忘的经历中发挥了重要作用！)”可知，作者对G Adventures是非常满意的。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段“Many people visit Cusco for shopping but for me, the main reason for spending a day or two in Cusco was to acclimatize (适应) to the altitude (海拔).(许多人来Cusco购物，但对我来说，在Cusco一两天的主要原因是适应海拔。)”可知，作者呆在Cusco是为了适应高海拔。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段“Day three had me enjoying a lovely guided visit to Machu Picchu at sunrise. I had free time to explore the city on my own as well as with my guide. It was a lot to take in! I had to stop for a moment and felt the energy of such an ancient city. The history here was unbelievable and I will never forget my time here for as long as I live!(第三天，日出时分，我在导游的带领下参观了Machu Picchu。我有空闲时间独自和导游一起探索这座城市。这是一个很大的挑战！我不得不停下来，感受一下这样一座古城的活力。这里的历史令人难以置信，我将永远不会忘记我在这里的时光！)”可知，在拜访Machu Picchu时，作者心里充满激动。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第一段“Peru is famously known as the “land of the Incas”. A trip to Peru has been on my wish list for quite a while. It was finally time for me to visit the country.(秘鲁以“印加人的土地”而闻名。秘鲁之行一直是我的愿望之一。我终于到了访问这个国家的时候了。)”以及后文可知，本文主要讲作者拜访秘鲁的旅行。所以B项My wonderful trip to Peru(我的秘鲁之旅)切合文意。故选B项。

Smartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned (禁止) at school for all children under 15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.
“I think it’s a good thing. School is not about being on your phone” Paris mum Marie-Caroline Madeleine told AFP. “It’s hard with kids. You can’t control what they see and that’s one of the things that worry me as a parent.”
There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.
McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.
McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day learning but they’re not allowed to use social media. Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨) ,” but now they’re seeing the advantages. “They come to school and they’re not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks,” she said.
“It’s been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen,” she said.
Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesn’t use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if we’ve done it.”
Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it’s important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.
“A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas,” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state-of-play.”
8. Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?
A. School is for studying. B. Kids behave badly nowadays.
C. Teachers find it hard to control kids. D. Her kids depend too much on phones.
9. What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?
A. Some teachers were against it at first.
B. Students can now see the good of the ban.
C. Students can use their phones at lunch beaks.
D. Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.
10. What does the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?
A A book. B. A notebook.
C. A learning website. D. A kind of computer.
11. What does Dr Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?
A. It will disconnect parents and kids. B. It will cause kids to communicate less.
C. It will prevent kids being tech-minded. D. It will make education go back 60 years.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文为介绍说明文。文章介绍了澳大利亚的一些学校禁止学生在学校使用手机，以及人们对此的不同看法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I think it’s a good thing. School is not about being on your phone,”可知，Madeleine认为这是件好事，学校不是玩手机的地方，由此推知她认为学校是学习的地方。故A选项正确。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨) ,” but now they’re seeing the advantages.”可知，开始的时候老师们欢呼、学生们抱怨，但是现在他们看到了好处。故B选项正确。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day-to-day learning but they’re not allowed to use social media.”可知，麦金农的学生仍然可以在每堂课上使用Chromebook进行日常学习，但他们不允许使用社交媒体，再对比选项可推知Chromebook应该是一种电子设备。故D选项正确。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第一、二段中Dr Joanne Orlando说的话可知，她认为澳大利亚不应该禁止学生在学校使用手机，因为教育孩子生活在他们成长的时代里很重要，而且今天对学生的良好教育是知道如何使用技术学习、交流和处理思想。由此推知，禁止学生在学校使用手机会阻断孩子们与技术的联系。故C选项正确。
【点睛】阅读理解所设试题主要考查细节查找，做题关键是找出原文的根据，认真核查选项和原文的异同，常犯错误有：绝对化语言，范围扩大或缩小，以偏概全，张冠李戴等。考生首先要浏览短文后的小题题干，标出关键词（组），带着问题去阅读，能够做到心中有数，目的明确；然后再仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握细节信息，并标出能得出答案的有效信息。如第2小题“What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?”，题干要求回答“关于麦金农中学的禁令我们了解到了什么”，题干关键词为the ban in McKinnon Secondary School，那么我们在第五段中的“Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨), but now they’re seeing the advantages.”能找到对应点，于是我们知道了，现在他们都看到了好处。在这里提醒同学们，在做阅读理解题时，一定要细心，这样才能准确找到正确答案。
