题目内容
There are many different ways of seeing a town for the first time. One of them is to walk around it, guide-book 26 hand. Of course, we may 27 with our guide-books the history and 28 developments of a town and get to know them.
29 then, if we take our time and 30 in a town for a while, we may get to know it better. When we 31 it as a whole, we begin to have some 32 , which even the best guide-books do not
answer. Why is the town just 33 this —— this shape, this plan, this size? Why do its streets 34 in this particular way, and not in any 35 way?
Here even the best guide-book 36 us. One can’t find the information in it about how a town has developed to the 37 appearance. It may not describe the original 38 of a town. However, one may get some idea of what it 39 look like by walking around the town. One can also imagine 40 the town was first planned and built. Then one can learn more about in what direction the town 41 to develop.
What is the 42 of studying towns in this way？For me, it is 43 a matter that one gets a greater depth of pleasure by visiting and seeing a town with one’s own eyes. A 44 visit to a town may help one better understand why it is attractive 45 just reading about it in a guide-book.

【解析】
1.本题考查介词。guide-book in hand是独立主格结构，作状语，表示方式。
2.本题考查动词。了解一座城市的方式很多，其中之一就是环城徒步旅行，当然，我们还可以借助guide-book来研究（study）其历史和特有的（special）的发展并了解他们。我们不能借助导游手册来写（write）其历史，也不需要讲述（tell）和记忆（remember）其历史。
3.本题考查形容词。special是指这个城市所特有的。
4.本题考查连词。上文讲我们可以借助导游手册研究其历史和发展，下文讲如果我们从容一点，在一个城市小住几天，则对其了解更多。此间有转折的意思。
5.本题考查动词。
6.本题考查动词短语。look at 在本题中有“考虑，判断”的意思，look at …as a whole意思是“从整体上看”。
7.本题考查名词。下文有动词answer，此处是先行词，在定语从句中用answer的宾语，只有questions才能构成动宾关系。
8.本题考查介词。介词like意思是“像”。
9.本题考查动词。run在这里意思是“延伸；延续；继续”（stretch）。例如：The road runs along the river bank. 这条路沿着河边一直延伸。
10.本题考查形容词。in any other way以其它方式
11.本题考查动词。fail在这里的意思是“使……失望”。从上下文看出，导游手册也不能回答以上这些问题。
12.本题考查形容词。present adj 现在的，当前的。
13.本题考查名词。the original design of a town一座城市最初的设计。
14.本题考查动词。what it used to look like 城市过去的样子，与上文the original design of a town相响应。
15.本题考查连词。选项A是疑问代词，用在此处语法结构错误；选项C和D分别指这座城市首次建造的时间和地点，与上文the original design of a town和what it used to look like没有联系；选项B表示这座城市设计建造的方式。
16.本题考查动词。与上句一致，意思是人们还能更多地了解这座城市未来继续发展方向。
17.本题考查名词。point在本句的意思是“用途，目的”。Begin your work now. There’s no point in wasting time. 现在就开始你的工作吧，耗时间没用。
18.本题考查副词。nearly几乎；generally一般地；hardly几乎不，都不符合题意。simply仅仅，只是。作者以这种方式去了解一座城市的原因很简单，仅仅是通过亲眼去看，去感受一个人就能更获得更大的快乐。
19.本题考查形容词。personal亲自的，亲身的，与上一句里的visiting and seeing a town with one’s own eyes意思相一致。
20.本题考查介词。前面有比较级better，这里当然用介词than。
