【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几个著名的旅游线路以及沿途可以欣赏到的独特风景等，以供旅游爱好者观光游览。

1．D　细节理解题。根据第二部分“Swiss Family Adventure：An Active Journey Through the Alps”提到的“Explore the heart－beating First Cliff Walk in Grindelwald. ”可知，在格林德瓦探索First Cliff Walk会让人心跳加快，兴奋异常。故选D。

2．D　推理判断题。根据第三部分“Climate Change in New Orleans：A Meeting and Observation”中提及的“The effect of climate change and extreme weather is all too noticeable…the issues about global climate change and its effects on human health，and natural ecosystems. ”可知，本段的信息主要涉及气候变化的影响，在新奥尔良人们研究此地的气候变化和极端天气还有全球气候变化给人类健康和自然生态系统带来的影响，所以新奥尔良是环保人士的合适去处。故选D。

3．B　细节理解题。根据第四部分“Active Argentina and Patagonia”中提及的“From cathedral－like peaks to icy glaciers，this active，multisport route invites you to explore the lake district”可知，在阿根廷可以到湖区探险。故选B。

Ⅱ．七选五　

Travelling is a very enjoyable experience as it provides an opportunity to see new things.

__1__ The following article discusses the advantages of travelling.

Travelling gives you the opportunity to disconnect from your regular life. People all have crazy schedules, work and a family to take care of, and travelling alone or with some friends can give you distance and perhaps even make you realise how important these people are to you. __2__

Another great benefit is the relaxation you get. __3__ When you come back you feel energetic and you are happy to be back to your daily routine.

__4__ They will create a bond that nothing can erase no matter what happens to the friendship. You can create photo albums and when you feel nostalgic(怀旧的) you can experience the trips again by looking at your pictures.

It’s never been this cheap to travel.  With increasing oil prices the cheap travel era might be coming to an end. __5__ With the Internet and all the new technology, you can plan your trip exactly the way you want it. You can choose your budget, the duration of the trip and what you want to do.

A．It’s nice to enjoy a stress－free time.

B．As the saying goes, you never know what you have until you lose it.

C．When travelling with friends or family, it creates memories of a lifetime.

D．Going on a trip means that you are most likely going to spend time outside.

E．Discovering different values and ways to get by in life is really interesting.

F．However, there are still many budget airlines fighting for your dollar right now.

G．There are many benefits other than enjoying yourself that can be realised when you travel.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了旅行的好处。

1．G　联系上下文，文章开头谈到旅行能为你提供欣赏新事物的机会，是一种愉快的经历。空格后的句意为：文章接下来谈论旅行的好处，故此处承上启下，谈论旅行除了让你玩得开心之外还有其他好处。

2．B　上文谈到旅行使人有机会脱离常规的生活，独自或与朋友一起旅行可以给你距离感，甚至意识到这些人对你有多重要，故此处谈论的是：正如名言所说的那样，人总是在失去时才懂得珍惜，回应上句的内容。

3．A　根据上文，旅行的另一个益处是你能得到放松，故此处进一步谈论的是：你能享受没有压力的时间是非常好的，即放松自我。

4．C　根据文章结构可知，此处应为主题句。根据下文中的“create photo albums”和“looking at your pictures”可知，与朋友或家人旅行时可以留下终生难忘的美好回忆。

5．F　因为上文提到旅行成本越来越高，下文提到可以通过网络或高科技选择自己旅行的支出预算，故前后有转折关系，所以此处谈论的应是有很多适合你的经济情况的航班等。

Ⅲ．语法填空　

Through travelling you can enjoy beautiful views and 1．________(broad) your horizons. In summer，you’d better get on a cruise ship(游轮) in the city of Chongqing which will take you to the Three Gorges，2．________ those ordinary ships are usually too crowded. Near Yunyang County，at the steep edge of the hills 3．________(stand) the famous Zhang Fei Temple 4．________ (surround) by trees. Because smoking 5．________(forbid) in the cabins，you have to go to the deck to smoke, 6．________ you can enjoy the beautiful scenery. You can see some fishermen 7．________ the distance. First，you will go through the Qutang Gorge，which narrows to 350 feet. Then you will sail through the Wu Gorge and the Xiling Gorge. However，8．________ impresses you most may be the Daning River in Wuxi County. There is immense 9．________ (mountain) land on both banks of the Yangtze River with only small areas of flat 10．________ (plain).

【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章向读者介绍了游览三峡的路线以及沿途的景色。

1．broaden　考查动词。and连接enjoy和设空处两个并列的谓语动词，设空处应用broad的动词形式。故填 broaden。

2．because/for　考查连词。句意：夏天，你最好在重庆市乘坐一艘能带你去三峡的游轮，因为那些普通的船通常都太拥挤了。由句意可知，设空前后是因果关系，故填because或for。

3．stands　考查时态及主谓一致。本句使用了全部倒装，本句的主语为“the famous Zhang Fei Temple”，设空处为谓语动词，由上下文语境可知用一般现在时。故填stands。

4．surrounded　考查过去分词。“the famous Zhang Fei Temple”与surround是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填surrounded。

5．is forbidden　考查动词的时态和语态。设空处为谓语动词，由上下文语境可知用一般现在时，主语smoking与forbid之间为被动关系。故填is forbidden。

6．where　考查关系副词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句并在从句中作状语，“the deck”为先行词，所以应用关系副词where。故填where。

7．in　考查介词。in the distance意为“在远处”，为固定短语。故填 in。

8．what　考查连接代词。设空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，此处指“使你印象最深刻的东西”，所以用what。

9．mountainous　考查形容词。设空处修饰其后名词land。故填形容词mountainous，意为“多山的”。

10．plains　考查名词单复数。plain意为“平原”时为可数名词，前面没有限定词，所以应用复数形式。故填plains。
