Unit 4 Astronomy the science of the stars新题型(由2013·皖南八校第三次联改编考)Do you love traveling? If the answer is yes, then have you ever thought about why? You may maintain that traveling can help you expand your scope of knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning. It will provide more chances for you to enjoy food and try on clothes that you otherwise cannot possibly have. A famous English author Francis Bacon (1561－1626) makes a point when he says that, “Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.”Evidence of leisure travel can be traced (追溯) as far back as ancient Babylon. This year, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council, the 1 billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month. That means that one in seven people on the planet traveled this year, something that would not have been possible a few decades ago. Around 20 years ago on ly the rich could travel.While the US and France remain the two largest destinations for world travel, experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, and the Ivory Coast, which weren't even on the world tourism map a decade ago. The top five destinations in the world, according to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, are Paris, London, New York, the Mediterranean, Turkey.Several factors have led to the boom in world travel. The prosperity (富裕) of people in Asia is one factor. People in Asian developing countries have lifted their incomes above middl eclass levels in the past few years. And a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel. In addition, travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation, and competition between airlines to give customers the best prices.1．geography 2.food(s) 3.Dating 4.decades 5.reach6．destinations 7.explosively/quickly/rapidly/fast8.resulting 9．richer/wealthier 10.spent一、单句语法填空1．Reading in bed will do harm ________ your eyes.2．It is impossible for a cock to lay ________ (egg)．3．(2015·浙江，16)If steel is heavier than water，why are ships able ________ (float)on the sea?4．(2014·江西，阅读A)In his black and blue suit and with ________ oxygen tank fastened on his back，Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. 5．(2014·福建，阅读B)The climate here ________ (be)quite pleasant，the temperaturerarely，if ever，reaching 30℃ in summer.6．Our success depends ________ whether everyone works hard.7．(2015·陕西，阅读C)The destruction of such species could prevent researchers ________ (find)cures for certain diseases.8．It was difficult for the helicopters ________ (get)close to the roof of the building because of the heavy smoke.9．(2013·天津，6)We have launched another man－made satellite，________ is announced in today's newspaper.10．Now that they have computers，it becomes ________ (easy)to deal with the problems. 答案1.to2.eggs3.to float4.an5.is6.on 7．finding 8.to get 9.which 10.easier二、完形填空Catherine invited Nelson to dinner.
