Ⅱ.七选五
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

People need homes: children assume their parents' place as home; boarders call school “home”on weekdays; married couples work together to build new homes; and travelers...have no place to call “home”, at least for a few nights.
1?Don't they have the right to a home? Of course they do.
Some regular travelers take their own belongings: like bed sheets, pillowcases and family photos to make them feel like home no matter where they are; some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with service and attendants; others may simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely. 2!
And how about maintaining relationships while in transit? 3; some send letters and postcards, or even photos; others may just call and say hi, just to let their friends know that they're still alive and well. 4. Making friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home. Backpackers in youth hostels may become very good friends, even closer than siblings.
Nowadays, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging? 5. Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination, we can make the place we stay “home”.
A.Home is the harbor for travelers
B.People find ways to keep in touch
C.Do all people have a comfortable home
D.Some keep contact with their friends via Internet
E.So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time
F.Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home”waiting to be found
G.Furthermore, driving a camping car during one's travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like home—only mobile

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

It was raining lightly when I 1(arrive) in Yangshuo just before dawn. But I didn't care. A few hours 2, I'd been at home in Hong Kong, with 3(it) choking smog. Here, the air was clean and fresh, even with the rain.
I'd skipped nearby Guilin, a dream place for tourists seeking the limestone mountain tops and dark waters of the Li River 4 are pictured by artists in so many Chinese 5(painting). Instead, I'd headed straight for Yangshuo. For those who fly to Guilin, It's only an hour away 6 car and offers all the scenery of the better-known city.
Yangshuo 7(be) really beautiful. A study of travelers 8(conduct) by the website TripAdvisor names Yangshuo as one of the top 10 destinations in the world. And the town is fast becoming a popular weekend destination for people in Asia. Abercrombie & Kent, a travel company in Hong Kong, says it 9(regular) arranges quick getaways here for people 10(live) in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

答案
1.E根据上文可知,人们都需要家,那么旅行者呢?他们至少有几个晚上没有家。

而下文提问,他们
就没有拥有家的权利吗?E项So how about people who have to travel for extended periods of time(那么,那些不得不长时间旅行的人呢)符合上下文语境。

2.G本段主要是说对于旅行者来说,出门在外也要有家的感觉。

G项Furthermore, driving a camping car during one's travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like home—only mobile(此外,旅行者在旅行期间开着露营车并且晚上在车里睡觉也有家的感觉,只不过它是移动的)符合语境。

3.D设空处前一句意为:在旅行过程中(与家人、朋友)保持联系又该如何呢?结合下文中一些保持
联系的方式可知,D项Some keep contact with their friends via Internet(一些人通过网络与他们的朋
友保持联系)符合语境。

4.B根据上文可知,有些人会寄信件和明信片,甚至是照片,其他人可能只是打电话问候一下,让朋
友知道他们还活着并且身体健康。

B项People find ways to keep in touch(人们会找到很多方法来保持联系)总结上文,符合语境。

5.F根据上文可知,现在,在自己的城市工作的人更少了,他们要如何培养归属感?而下文又提到,无
论我们在哪里,只要用一点点的努力和想象,我们就能使我们待的地方变为“家”。

F项Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found(无论何时我们走
出自己的城市,总有另一个“家”等着我们去发现)符合语境。

E项中的local boundaries与前文中的local towns相呼应。

答案
1.arrived考查时态。

根据前后文时态可知,设空处为对过去所发生的事情的一般陈述,故应用一
般过去时。

2.before/earlier考查副词。

空后时态为过去完成时,表示过去的过去,由此可推断本句陈述在过去
某时间以前发生的事情,所以设空处填before或earlier,表示“在……之前”。

3.its考查形容词性物主代词。

修饰名词短语 choking smog需用 it 的形容词性物主代词形式its。

4.that/which考查定语从句。

本句包含定语从句,先行词为dark waters of the Li River,关系词在从
句中作主语。

5.paintings考查名词复数。

根据前面的by artists in so many可推知,要用名词复数形式。

6.by
考查介词。

by car乘汽车,为固定短语。

7.is考查时态。

此句缺少谓语动词,根据语境和后句的时态可知,此处用一般现在时。

Yangshuo 为主语,所以用第三人称单数形式。

8.conducted考查过去分词作定语。

根据后面的by可知,A study of travelers与conduct在逻辑上是被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。

9.regularly考查副词。

设空处修饰动词arranges,应用副词。

10.living考查现在分词作定语。

live与people之间为主动关系,故用现在分词短语作后置定语。
