【题目】Reasons why you should travel while you’re young
I have been very lucky to travel around the world while still young. According to my experiences, I advise every young person to get out of his hometown and see what’s out there. Here are three ways that traveling has changed me forever.
Traveling changes the way you connect with the world
I grew up in a small town. 【1】. When you travel to other countries and see the amazing beauty of sunsets over seas, monkeys swinging through rainforests, you realize the world is-full of more beauty than you are able to see in a lifetime. But, you still want to try.
Traveling changes the way you connect with others
Everyone in my hometown looked and acted basically the same.【2】. I realized that my life could be enriched by developing friendships with people who didn’t look or act like me. Far from my hometown, I developed friendships with people who were nothing like me, but were exactly what I needed.【3】.
Traveling helps develop your interest in education
【4】. Just reading the stories in books seemed so boring to me. However, when I visited the Palace of Versailles in France and walked in the halls of the Louvre. I couldn’t help but have interest in history.【5】.
A. Traveling taught me, not to fear.
B. Traveling makes history come alive.
C. Sadly, I never liked history in school.
D. When I traveled, I learned a lot about other cultures.
E. It also taught me the importance of communication skills.

【解析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了年轻人应该出去旅行的原因。
【1】G
根据上句:我生长在一个小城镇。再根据空格下句:当你去其他国家旅行,看到日落大海的神奇美丽,猴子荡过热带雨林时,你意识到这个世界充满了比你一生中所能看到的更多的美丽。 根据下文的 When you travel to other countries可知,该空应该与外面的世界、其他国家有关。可知此空的意思是:如果我没有旅游的机会,我会有一个不同的时间想象我家乡以外的其他地方。故选G。
【2】D
根据上文的Everyone in my hometown looked and acted basically the same及下文的I realized that my life could be enriched可知,空格处作者应该是了解到了其他地方的文化。可知答案为D。
【3】E
根据该段小标题Traveling changes the way you connect with others及本段中的I developed friendships with people可知,作者在旅行中提高了人际交往的能力。故答案为E。
【4】C
根据下文的Just reading the stories in books seemed so boring to me可知,作者不喜欢学校的历史课。故选C。
