I’m a travel lover. I think it is very exciting to go to new places, experience different situations and see new things. Here’s what I have e up with about why my travel is so interesting.
To start with, whether we know it or not, every day is filled with anxiety about things that we don’t need to worry about in the first place. Going to new places is a good chance to escape from our everyday worries. For example, after a whole day at work, I’m often physically and mentally tired and start to worry about things. However, the moment I get on the train or bus to my next destination（目的地）I forget all my tiredness and worries.
Next is one of the most important things in travel: movement. I always take along books to read on my train trips, but in the end, only about five pages or so ever get read, because I just look at things out of the window. Just the ability to move is very enjoyable. Movement also means that we are going to
new places and seeing new things. But why is that important? Because experiencing new situations, people and ideas can help us to learn about new things and grow. I have never gone on a trip and e back as the same person; I have always changed and grown through travel.
So take every type of trip you can, at every chance you get, and you will not only experience more of the world, but will bee a happier person with rich experiences.
24.The passage is mainly about ___________.
A. how to have a fortable life
B. how to prepare for a trip
C. why travel is so exciting
D. why some people are tired of travelling
25.Why doesn’t the author read much on train trips?
A. Because he doesn’t like reading on the train
B. Because his attention was taken away by the beautiful view.
C. Because he is too busy working to read.
D. Because he is so tired that he can’t read.
26.People who travel to new places will ________.
①learn new things ②bee happier
③get more experiences ④have more chances to read
A. ①②③④.
B. ①②④
C. ②③④
D. ①②③
27.The author develops the passage mainly by________.
A. giving explanations
B. giving examples
C. listing number
D. following the natural time order
C
Is there anything more important than health？I don’t think so. You can’t be good at your studies or work when you are ill. If you have a headache，or a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat，feel your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs. After that he will advise some treatment，or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.
Speaking of doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old man came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness，memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest .He also advised him to eat a lot of meat，drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words，the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure，drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.”The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again，he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A m onth later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“But you know，doctor，”he said，“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.
28．The writer thinks that ________.
A. health is more important than wealth
B. work is as important as studies
C. medicine is more important than pleasure
D. nothing is more important than money
29．The doctor usually tells his patient what to do ________.
A. without examining the patient
B. after he has examined the patient
C. if the patient doesn’t take medicine
D. unless the patient feels pain
30．The underlined part means“________”.
A．he was feeling better than ever B．he wasn’t a healthy man
C．he was feeling worse than before D．he will be well again
31．From the last sentence of the passage，we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A．was a heavy smoker B．didn’t smoke so much
C．didn’t smoke D．began to learn to smoke
D
Can technology improve your trip? Meet Judy Williams. When she and her husband recently checked into Blu Hotel in Zurich, a clerk asked them to sign the dotted line on a room rate hundreds of dollars higher than their online offer.
“It was not a cheap stay,” says Williams, a lawyer from Billings, Mont. But it became more of one after her husband fired up the Booking. app he’d used to book their room on his smart phone. “As soon as we showed him the cost, he honored it,” Williams says.
Technology may c reate challenges for travelers but it can also solve them. It’s more than making sure of a hotel cost. The latest Booking. can help users select hotels by location, make a secure booking and view the confirmed (已确认的) cost so they never need to re-discuss their hotel price.
Another pain point for travelers is traffic that eats away precious vacation time. There’s a new app called mute which is aimed at users who have to make the same trip every day. But if you’re headed to Los Angeles or Honolulu, where visitors can easily get stuck in hours of heavy traffic, mute can help.
Just input basic information about your destination and expected leaving time, and the app will start sending you traffic information 15 minutes before you leave. Testing mute proved to be a challenge for me, because my home address is about 900 miles from my place of work. But if you have only a short distance to travel through a heavily populated area, you can use mute to avoid traffic jams.
Another source of travel-related pr oblems is money. That’s particularly true when you’re dealing with a foreign currency. The latest Travel Money Tracker helps travelers prevent currency mix-ups. It immediately changes a country’s native currency to yours, so you know exactly how much that Espresso (浓咖啡) in Milan costs in dollars. It can also warn you when you’re overspending, which can sometimes be a problem when you’re on vacation. The only catch, of course, is that you have to remember to record all your purchases.
Taken together, these apps solve some of the most mon travel problems. But not all of them. Some things, no smart phone can fix, which means I get to keep my job – for now at least.
32.What does the writer want to tell through the example of Judy Williams?
A. The cost of Blu Hotel was higher than that of others.
B. The clerk was very friendly and patient.
C. The smart phones have many functions.
D. Technology can make our trips better.
33.mute is not suitable for those who_______________.
A. have a long journey
B. go on the same trip every day
C. can easily get stuck in traffic jams
D. travel a short distance downtown
34.What is the function of Travel Money Tracker?
A. It tells people how much Espresso costs.
B. It warns people when they are shopping.
C. It changes the native currency to yours.
D. It records all people’s purchases.
35. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To encourage people to travel.
B. To introduce some new apps.
C. To help people with technology problems.
D. To provide people with traveling information.
