【题目】While it’s wonderful to share a special trip with friends or family, traveling alone is another experience. 1

1. Meet new people.

People who are traveling alone seem more approachable to others. Before you know it, you could be chatting with some interesting folks at a sidewalk cafe or even joining a group of like-minded people on the beach. 2

2.Do everything you want and nothing you don’t want.

Have you ever been hesitant to do that half-day at the spa you are eager for because you feel bad leaving your travel partner with nothing to do? 3 If you want to “waste” the day sitting at an outdoor bar drinking a cocktail instead of sightseeing, you won’t have to answer anyone.

However, once you take the courage and get over your fears, you’ll feel a sense of energy. A successful single vacation can inspire you to try new things in life.

【解析】这是一篇议论性的文章,讲述的是一个人单独旅行的理由与好处。

1此空位于第一段末,第一段总领全文,所以此句应具有概括性的特点,以及承上启下的作用,快速浏览下文,观察到后文分成四个小点,讲的是单人旅行的理由。结合这些特点,故选D

2此空位于第二段结尾,也是第一小点的结尾,应具有总结此段内容的作用,前文讲的是如何结识新的人,这里结合与前文相关且具有总结性的特点,故选A。

3此空位于第二小点中,第二点的核心内容是:做自己想做的事。联系上下文,前文主要说了你曾经因离开旅行伙伴而无所是从吗,后文主要说你可以做自己想做的事不用过问其他人,这一空要做到联系文章主旨即单独旅行并且紧接着前后文与旅行伙伴有关的话题,使这一段的连接顺畅,故选C。

4此空位于第三小点小标题位置,很明显这一空要对接下来的这一段具有高度的概括性,作为标题更是要简洁明了。浏览这一段内容,主要讲了在单独旅行过程中,当你用勇气克服恐惧你就会感到充满力量,一次好的单独旅行会激励你在生活中尝试新事物。所以单独旅行是能使人振作精神的,故选E。

5此空位于第四小点中,联系上文:单独旅行时旅馆和餐厅的服务会更好,接下来就很有可能是解释为什么单独旅行时旅馆和餐厅的服务会更好,浏览所有选项,可知G最合适,故选G。

【题目】Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.

Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.

There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be "green gyms". They are better replacements(代替物) for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free.

1Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?

A. Motor racing in the desert.

A. it is an outdoor sport

A. It is popular in Portugal and Spain.

B. It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.

C. It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.

D. It causes water shortages around the world.

4The author writes the passage to ________.

A. show us the function of major sports

B. discuss the major influence of popular sports

C. encourage us to go in for green sports

D. introduce different types of environment-friendly sports
