一、阅读理解（本题共计 10 小题，每题 10 分，共计100分）
1、Some people shy away from traveling alone while a few welcome it. So, what is it that makes traveling alone an attractive choice?
First of all, the travel plan and all the decisions you make are yours alone. You don’t nee worry about any other person or group. In other words, there are no arguments. Actually, you can be completely selfish.
Traveling alone is also a great confidence builder. Yes, at times it can feel a bit lonely, but that is just one of many problems you will have to solve yourself, along with making your own preparations and setting your own goals.
Besides, have you noticed that when you’re on your own, people are more willing to start a conversation with you? Interestingly, people tend to keep a distance from couples and groups. However, the lone (独自的) traveler looks ready to connect with their fellow human beings and more likely to get into pleasant conversation about their trips.
Here are two more exciting reasons why you should consider traveling alone. You will find you learn the language faster when you don’t have someone else talking to you in your own language all the time. You are forced to communicate in the foreign language when you travel alone in a country that doesn’t speak your native language. In addition, when you’re on your own, you’re free to meet someone who might turn out to be very important in your life.
Of course, there may be things stopping you: You fear the unknown, or you have friends who may be upset by your decision to take off by yourself. You will have to make them believe the value of traveling done and allay any fears they might have, but with the technology at our fingertips, you can include them in the adventure.
32. What is the first advantage of traveling alone mentioned by the author?
A. It helps you gain confidence.
B. It makes you learn the language faster.
C. It keeps you away from crowds.
D. It allows you to focus on yourself.
33. Why are people more willing to connect with lone travelers?
A. They look interesting.
B. They are lonely.
C. It is much easier to get close to them.
D. It’s safe to focus on yourself.
34. What does the underlined word “allay” in the last paragraph probably me?
A. express
B. remove
C. appreciate
D. experience
35. Which of the following would the author agree with?
A. Having an adventure with your friends first.
B. Getting ready to come across the unknown.
C. Learning a foreign language before traveling.
D. Finding a traveling companion during your trip.
2、Ecotourism (生态旅游): A Different Way to Travel
Are you attracted to obscure (偏远的) places? Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists? Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist.
Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the tourism industry at large. The Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin (盆地) is contributing to that expansion, and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.
At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins (小屋) sits Kapawi Ecolodge in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve (保护区) and is only reached by air. From here, visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket, where they find food, clothing, medicine and tools. As a result, tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment.
The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people, but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011. The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.
You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines: Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions.
The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist, you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well.
86. According to the text, the ecotourists should be ______.
A. those who like to experience the easily-remembered natural environment
B. those who like to go to their travelling places by hiking
C. those who prefer an undamaged natural world and remain what it used to be
D. those who prefer unique natural environment of cultural relics
87. At the Kapawi ecolodge, visitors can’t ______.
A. explore the Amazon rainforest
B. reach there by air
C. live in the Achuar reserve
D. see many travelers from outside
88. Which of the words is closest in meaning to the word “snapshot” in the second paragraph?
A. Idea.
B. Aim.
C. Adventure.
D. Opportunity.
89. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. the Kapawi Ecolodge will continue to run and manage the lodge after 2011
B. the Kapawi Ecolodge owners are the Achuar in favor of ecotourism
C. the Achuar people have benefited a lot by collecting money from ecotourists
D. the owners of Kapawi encourage tourists to appreciate the Achuar culture
3、Now it is time to go out to explore foreign lands and experience the different beaches that the world has to offer.
Anse Sourced’ Argent, Seychelles--With beautiful pale pink sand, clear blue waters, and rock formations that have be en shaped by waves and time, this beach’s beauty is enough to land itself on the cover of a travel magazine. And it is one of the most photographed baeches in the world. And don’t worry about any waves as the shores and shallow waters are protected by a nearby reef(礁).
Maldives--Maldives is an island nation off the coast of Sri Lanka and one of the lowest nations of the world, Enjoy the soft sandy beaches, coconut-bearing palm trees, and a diverse sea life that surrounds you. But due to coral dying and rising sea levels, Maldives is expected to sink within the next 10 years. Freedom Beach, Thailand--Privacy(隐私) isn’t always so easy to find at a beach, but Freedom Beach in Thailand provides a much less crowded, more relaxing location to spend your time. With swimming, snorkeling(浮潜), and beach-side refreshments(点心,茶点), you are able to have the vacation that you deserve! Its neighboring beach, Patong, can get a little crowded and a bit crazy with the large number of tourists present, so escape via water taxi to enjoy yourself and a much cleaner shore.
Matira Beach, Bara Bora--The island's economy is driven by tourism, so you know that all of the locals want you to have a great time and come back soon with all of your friends. With a beach like Matira, that sounds like a great idea! You may recognize the island from Couples Retreat. Remember all of the over-the-water bungalows(平房) that were in the movie?

4、Grey clouds move as low as smoke over the treetops at Lolo Pass. The ground is white. The day is June 10. It has been snowing for the past four days in the Bitterroot Mountains. Wayne Fairchild is getting worried about our trek over the Lolo Trail-95 miles from Lolo Montana to Weippe in Idaho, across the roughest country in the West. Lewis and Clark were nearly defeated 200 years ago by snowstorms on the Lolo. Today Fairchild is nervously checking the weather reports. He has agreed to take me across the toughest, middle section of the trail.
When Lewis climbed on top of Lemhi Pass, 140 miles south of Missoula, on Aug. 12, 1805, he was astonished by what was in front of him; “high mountain chains still to the West of us with their tops partially covered with snow.” Nobody in what was then the US knew the Rocky Mountains existed, with peaks twice as high as anything in the Appalachians back East.
Today their pathway through those mountains holds more attraction than any other ground over which they traveled, for its raw wilderness is an evidence to the character of two cultures: the explorers who braved its hardships and the Native Americans who prize and conserve the path as a sacred (神圣的) gift. It remains today the same condition as when Lewis and Clark walked it.
The Lolo is passable only from July to mid-September. Our luck is holding with the weather, although the snow keeps getting deeper. As we climb to Indian Post Office, the highest point on the trail at 7, 033 ft, we have covered 13 miles in soft snow, and we hardly have enough energy to make dinner. After a meal of chicken, I sit on a rock on top of the ridge (山脊). There is no light visible in any direction, not even another campfire. For four days we do not see another human being. We are occupied with the things that mix fear with joy. In our imagination we have finally caught up with Lewis and Clark.
20. We learn from the text that before 1805 ______.
A. The Rocky Mountains were wholly covered with snow
B. there were no people living in the western part of America
C. no Americans knew of the existence of the Rocky Mountains
D. the Appalachians were the western frontier of the United States
21. We learn from the text that the Lolo Pass ______.
A. has changed a lot since 1805
B. is the meeting point of three cultures
C. remains much the same as it was 200 years ago
D. now attracts a large number of tourists to visit
22. Judging from the text, Lewis and Clark were most probably ______.
A. two native Indians
B. explorers of the early 19th century
C. merchants who did business with the Indians
D. travelers whose curiosity took them over the Lolo Pass
23. We can infer from the text that when crossing the Lolo Pass the author ______.
A. was attempting the impossible
B. was trying to set a world record
C. was following the trail of Lewis and Clark
D. was fighting with weather and taking unnecessary risks
5、Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.
A VOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £ 169. 15 at Booking. com. A week later, the same room cost £ 118.15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen. com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.
STAY AWAY FROM THE STA TION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95 A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £ 75.75 And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £ 62.95.
GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £ 1. 50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).

6、There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experience will make one a better person.
I remember when I was travelling I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realize that people are similar in their dreams, hopes and feelings. Enjoy exploring the different cultures, and you will also find that people
are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it need not be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas do we find that those stories are something wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can’t just get money to send to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved（干预）and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and finding about their lives is a great way to spend your time. You will certainly be more confident after having to cope with problems and make many decisions along the way.
When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures and special memories.
Traveling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us is a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place.
39. From paragraph 2, we can learn that ______.
A. people around the world are the same in their hopes
B. books always tell us wrong stories about cultures
C. traveling can help us better understand the world
D. People in different places have strange living habits
40. The underlined expression “cope with” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “______”.
A. solve
B. avoid
C. meet
D. cover
41. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A. People in the world are family
B. Traveling helps one make more friends
C. People in the world share one dream
D. Traveling makes one a better person

8、Spend any time in London, England’s capital, and you’ll quickly gather that it’s a multicultural (多元文化的) community. Look around at your fellow passengers on the Tube (地铁) or the bus. They’re of every skin color and dress differently to one another. Listen, and you’ll hear many other languages besides English spoken. Some of these people, no doubt, will be tourists who are in London to see the sights. But others — in fact probably most — will be living their lives there, along with millions of others.
Along with white British people, there are Britons from, or with parents and grandparents from, the Caribbean, India, China and most other places. This makes London a fascinating place in which to live. The reason is that when people settle in a place, they don’t just buy a house and live there, but bring aspects of the culture of their “old country” with them.
The most visible sign of this is the number of restaurants offering dishes from different parts of the world. In a city in which it’s estimated 250 different languages are spoken, you can expect a similarly wide range of foods to be available. You would expect in one of the world’s leading cities to encounter (遇到) French, Italian, Chinese and Indian eateries. But in London you’ll also find Polish, Patagonian and Palestinian restaurants.
However, London’s multiculturalism isn’t just about food. Many types of people are gathered in on e space, but the way they live differently shows in that space. They worship (崇拜) differently, for one thing. Alongside the famous old English churches by Nicholas Hawksmoor and Christopher Wren — responsible for one of the capital’s most famous landmark, St Paul’s Cathedral—you’ll find mosques (清真寺), temples and synagogues (犹太教堂).
London even speaks its own special kind of English. Language experts created the term “Multicultural London English” to identify the dialect of English that appeared at the end o f the last century.
All of this makes London a very surprising and varied place to call your home. But, in a way, this has long been true. In the 18th century, the compiler (编纂者) of the first English dictionary, Samuel Johnson, once said: “ He who is tired of London is tired of life.”
60. By describing the situation on the Tube and bus, the author intends to ______.
A. show that London is a multicultural city
B. explain why London appeals to tourists
C. prove that London is a great place to live in
D. inform us of how the population of Britain is made up
61. According to the article, people who settle in London from other places ______.
A. are forced to give up their native language
B. find it easy to buy a house in the city
C. bring in cultural practices from their original country
D. make up the majority of the population in the city
62. Which of the following could be used as proof of London’s multiculturalism?
A. The city is home to the famous building St Paul’s Cathedral.
B. The city has become a favorite destination for tourists abroad.
C. There are a variety of French restaurants in the city.
D. A new London dialect has appeared in recent years.
63. Samuel Johnson is mentioned in the last paragraph to ______.
A. show what London was like in the 18th century
B. prove the cultural diversity of London from a historical aspect
C. inform the readers what to expect in London
D. introduce the first English dictionary he compiled
9、Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.
Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries -- like the UK or France -- people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.
Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.
Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.
People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.
25. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to______.
A. get to know each other
B. share the same culture
C. develop closer relations
D. keep each other company

A. Too many words are of no use.
B. The English prefer to make long speeches.
C. People from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature.
D. Even talk and silence can be culturally different.
27. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?
A. By accepting different habits.
B. By recognizing different values.
C. By sharing different ways of life.
D. By speaking each other's languages.
28. What is the text mainly about?
A. Cross-cultural differences
B. Multicultural environment
C. How to build up a relationship
D. How to understand each other
10、England continues to be one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. London in particular is one of the most visited cities and draws people in with its appeal, history and pubs. England’s smaller cities, like Bath and Oxford, are equally as attractive with a lot of culture and fewer crowds. Liverpool, birthplace of The Beatles, has a rich musical history. The countryside has wonderful natural beauty. Here are some tips on traveling in England.
Free museums—Public museums offer free admission in every city throughout England and the UK. It’s a great way to learn about the country’s most influential artists and history, and spend a rainy day without paying a cent.
Book early—Book all transportation well in advance, even if you don’t plan to use it. Fares can be around £ 2 with a little planning. The Megabus not only runs buses but also provides trains throughout England and is the best choice for cheap travel throughout the country.
Pub food—Eating in England can be quite expensive, but for good cheap and filling meals, visit the local pubs, where you can get a good meal for less than £10. Besides, the pubs are a great way to meet people!
Get a Taste of UK card—The taste of the UK card offers up to 50% off at selected restaurant. You don’t need to be an English to get the card, and you needn’t pay the first month’s membership fee, which is perfect for most travelers.
Take a free walking tour—Many major cities in England offer free walking tours. They usually last a few hours and are a great way to see the city.
