【題目】“Here is the shopping for Mr Green,”said Dad, handing me a big plastic bag. Dad owned a milk bar, and sometimes I helped out after school with deliveries(送貨). We had our regulars, but times were hard. Dad said it was the home deliveries that kept us in business-that, and the tea Dad imported(進口) from Fuzhou. Dad was well-known for his tea, and people came from miles around to buy it.
I loaded up my bicycle with Mr Green’s shopping. His order always included three packets of Dad’s tea. How Mr Green could drink that much tea each week was a mystery to me.
“See you later, Chen,”said Dad.
He always called me by my Chinese name.
Dad’s parents came from China in the 1950s. I had a yuan coin they brought with them. I cycled out into the sun, wishing I could drive-it would be so much quicker to make deliveries.
Dad always said the exercise was good for me. I knew he was right, but I’d already decided that when I left home, the first thing I would do was buy a car.
I loved anything to do with cars, and I’d decided I would be a mechanic, although I knew it wasn’t Dad had in mind for me. He’d already started saying to his friends, “When Chen goes to university...”If that happened, I would be the first person in my family to go, and it would be a great honor for my dad. But it wasn’t what I wanted. (改編于《新理念英語》九年級第1冊)??? (76-- 79 in no more than six words)

【題目】“Joe, did you book your ticket yet?” I asked. “No. I changed my mind. I’m not going to go.”“What? You aren’t going to Australia? We’ve been planning this vacation for months!”“Yeah, I don’t feel like it. We’ll go some other time.”
Over the coming weeks, I tried to get my friend to reconsider, but failed. Our trip to Australia was off. And none of my friends wanted to replace him. If I wanted to travel, it would have to be on my own.
It’s taught me that if I wait for others, I’ll never go anywhere. But there are places I want to visit, people to see, experiences to have, and food to try—and only so much time to achieve it all. So I refuse to wait. I won’t let others keep me from realizing my dreams. It can be scary travelling alone, especially then you’ve never done it before. But, to me, growing old without experiencing everything you want from life is more frightening.
If you’re been putting off a trip because you’re waiting for someone to go with—stop. Just go. Don’t let others hold you back from your dreams. Trust me, along the way you’ll make plenty of friends. More than that, travelling alone gives you real freedom. You wake up and it’s just you—what you want, where you want, when you want. In that freedom and great space of possibility, you meet yourself.
It’s sink or swim and you have to learn how to survive—who to trust, how to make friends, how to find your way around alone. That’s the greatest reward(獎賞) of travelling alone. Each time you go away, you learn to become a little more independent and confident.
Travelling alone is not for everyone. Some people return home soon after starting off, some cry for weeks before accepting it, and others just accept it right away. But you’ll never learn that if you don’t travel once by yourself. Whether a weekend away, a two-week vacation, or a trip around the world, try it at least once.
【1】What does the writer think is more frightening?
A. Travelling alone for the first time.
B. Changing your mind all the time.
C. Waiting for others during a long trip.
D. Failing to experience life in your growth.
【2】The underlined words “hold you back from your dreams” in Paragraph 4 probably mean“______”.
A. get you out of trouble??? B. stop you from travelling
C. keep you waiting for them??? D. wake you up from your dream
【3】According to the writer, the best reward of travelling alone is _____.
A. the experience of travelling
B. the freedom to go anywhere
C. the chance to taste delicious food
D. the possibility of meeting new people
【4】The passage is mainly about__________.
A. where to travel??? B. when to travel
C. how to travel safely??? D. why to travel alone
