题目内容

【题目】When I was five years old, my parents would have to pull me home from yet another painful English vacation. I still didn’t want to leave. I want to be away from home. I wanted to go somewhere new and exciting. This became the theme of the next twenty years. I’d spend the whole year counting down to my next holiday, and then as soon as I left I’d begin to dread having to return home. Year after year.

Ten years ago, I decided to build a life that I didn’t want to escape from. I knew I wanted to travel in the long term, but I didn’t have a lot of money or savings, and there is no one paying for my adventures. For five years, I did three jobs while studying full-time at university. I didn’t eat out and I didn’t buy anything I didn’t need. I even moved in with my parents. I was able to save $16,000 over those five years, which was enough to keep me on the road for a couple of years.

But what if two years wouldn’t be enough? Before leaving, I began to spend my time in making plans that would allow me to work anywhere that had an Internet connection. At the time, I was studying for a master degree in physics. While studying I came up with a list of my interests and skills and began researching into a way to do these anywhere. If I could make money from it and if I could do it online then it was something worth going after.

I created a writing file that would help me to find the free writing jobs. I researched English and physics teaching online, and built travel websites to earn income through sale and advertising. Most of these failed, but I didn’t give up.

The work I do has changed over the years and it’s still changing now. Now, I pay my traveling through several different things. I’m the Student Travel Expert for About.com, and a senior writer for Too Many Adapters, a travel technology website. In addition, I will have my first book published this summer. I also offer a travel planning service to help readers prepare for their travels abroad.

To reach this point, where I can cover my expenses and travel full-time, took many, many years of hard work. For me, the freedom makes it worth it. With everything set in place, finally my dreams came true.

【4】D

主旨大意题。作者从小喜欢旅游，在人生的不同阶段都努力付出不辞辛苦，一直在为实现梦想而努力。文章讲述的是作者怎样实现梦想的，故选D.

细节理解题属直接解答性问题，是阅读理解题中最简单的一种，多数属中低难度的题。事实和细节题的命题特点是：对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实的理解，一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题。直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案，而语义转化题则需要将题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。

做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：

1.略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨；

2.按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实；

3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。如小题2考查作者从事过的职业，根据第四段I researched English and physics teaching online, and built travel websites to earn income through sale and advertising.第五段I’m the Student Travel Expert for About.com, and a senior writer for Too Many Adapters, a travel technology website.和I will have my first book published this summer. I also offer a travel planning service可知这些都是作者从事的工作，C项不是。故选C.
