【题目】 Traveling green takes a little extra effort at first, but it soon becomes second nature and those extra steps can enhance every trip you take. Here are our tips for going green with ease and making travel better for everyone.

【1】

Look for certified green hotels that use renewable energy, recycle, use environmentally friendly cleaning products and so on. Staying in smaller, locally run hotels and B&Bs is often the greenest method around, which will make your stay environmentally and socially responsible as well as being a more direct boost to the local economy.

Use public transport, bike or walk

Instead of renting a car, hop on a local bus: take a walking tour or view the countryside by bike. 【2】.

Eat locally

Sourced food support the region’s farmers, get a more authentic taste of the cuisine and cut your carbon footprint even more. Look out for restaurants advertising local produce or, eat local dishes at mom-and-pop-style places that will most likely use what’s produced nearby. 【3】.

Leave a light footprint

【4】. Research your destination by Internet or ask around to find out if there are water shortages, how energy is produced and if there are any resource issues to be aware of.

Don’t dump your stuff

If you leave them, they could remain in a landfill for hundreds of years after you’re gone 【5】. As for clothing and items that may be of use to local people, donate them to local charities or religious organizations so they can reach those most in need.

【解析】

本文是说明文。环保旅行需要额外的努力，但很快，这些额外的步骤可以改善你的每一次旅行。文章从几方面介绍了几个建议，让大家轻松地走向绿色，让旅行更好。

【1】

此处是段落小标题。根据下文Look for certified green hotels that use renewable energy, recycle, use environmentally friendly cleaning products and so on.(寻找使用可再生能源、回收利用、使用环保清洁产品等的认证绿色酒店)可知，此处讲述如何选择酒店，故A项“选择环保酒店”符合语境。故选A。

【2】

通过小标题可知，本段主要建议我们使用公共交通工具。结合上文Instead of renting a car, hop on a local bus: take a walking tour or view the countryside by bike.(与其租车，不如坐当地的公共汽车:徒步旅行或骑自行车欣赏乡村风光)可知，F项“对于长距离旅行考虑火车，它允许会见当地人，并以更慢、更详细的方式体验一种文化”也是一种使用公共交通工具的旅行方式，符合上下文语境。故选F。

【3】

通过小标题可知，本段建议我们旅行时吃当地食物。空前内容是对小标题的展开，再结合常识可知，D项“无论你做什么，不要吃濒危物种，如海龟或过度捕捞的贝类”符合语境。故选D。

【4】

通过小标题可知，本段建议留下较少足迹。空后对小标题展开讲述，E项“采取简单的措施，如洗短淋浴和不需要时关灯”属于节能环保的做法，符合上下文语境。故选E。

【5】

本段主要建议我们不要丢弃东西。空前介绍“一些欠发达的地区没有办法处理大的人造物品，如旧的电子产品或旧的电池。如果你留下它们，可能它们会在你离开后在填埋场里呆上几百年”。由此可知，C项“把你的垃圾打包带回家”符合本段主旨。故选G。
