11．"How are things back at the office？"one of the gentlemen in my bicycle tour group asked me as we were nearing the end of another lengthy ride through Croatia's scenic countryside．"I assume they are going fine，"I said．"I haven't had any contact and I don't plan to．"
"Your phone isn't on？"he asked，incredulously．"You haven't checked your email？"
"Your phone is off and no，I'm not planning on checking email，"I said．
"My phone is off and no，I'm not planning on checking email，"I said．
My wife Heidi and I took my children，Daniel and Rachel，on a two-week trip to Croatia，one of the most beautiful countries in the world．We made the choice to spend some of our money on this wonderful experience so we could spend time bonding with each other and the kids．
Why would I destroy the environment we had traveled thousands of miles to create by bringing my work environment into it？That would be counter-productive to everything I wanted out of this trip．If I worked during this experience，I would be taking time away from my family and sending them the message that work takes priority over them．
In addition to sharing this incredible experience，I wanted to take us all out of the activity-driven world we live in．If I had my cell phone on and was constantly searching out a wireless connection to keep up with office，I would just bring that hyper-connected environment into the peaceful，meaningful world I was trying to create．
In addition to creating life-long memories with my family，another wonderful thing happened as a result of this bike trip．As we were returning home，I was flooded with new ideas．I came up with concepts for nine blog posts and several ideas that I want to incorporate into my business．
Taking time off restored and rejuvenated me and allowed my creative spirit to really come to the surface．How can you accomplish that goal if you simply move the source of that stress to a different location？

解答 答案：
24．C 细节推理题 通过开头的对话可知，作者出来旅行时关闭了手机，也没有查看过自己的电子邮件；并且根据第五段中的"We made the choice to spend some of our money on this wonderful experience so we could spend time bonding with each other and the kids．（我们选择花些钱来享受这段美妙的旅行经历，这样我们夫妻还有孩子们就可以共度一段时间）"可推测出作者这样做的原因是：就是为了能够和妻子以及孩子们一起充分享受旅行的快乐而不被打扰；故选C．

27．D 词义猜测题 根据倒数第二段中的"I was flooded with new ideas．I came up with concepts…I want to incorporate into my business"讲到了作者回到家后的想法与感受，可推测出此处的意思应是：花一些时间去恢复精力和元气，让我的创新精神显露出来；故"rejuvenate"的意思应是：使某人恢复精力或使某人的精力更充沛；故选D．

One of the most common causes of fighting among both children and apes was over the （52）B of external objects．The argument over the ownership of any desired object---food，clothes，toys，females，and the affection of others---was sufficient reason to （53）A force．In a case of monkeys'disagreement over females．thirty females were killed．Two points are of particular interest to notice about these fights for possession．
