Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own，not because they have no one to travel with，but because they prefer to go alone.

Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life.“It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.

In foreign countries，with no one to help you read a map，look after you if you get ill，or lend you money if your wallet is stolen，it is challenging.This is what drives young people to travel alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.

Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year.He set up a website，The Aussie Nomad，to document his adventures.He says he wished he had traveled alone earlier.“The people you meet，the places you visit，or the things you do，everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person，” said the 30yearold man.

Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”，which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything”．He said，“The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task.” “I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said，“Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”

A．Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.

B．It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.

【2】Traveling alone is challenging because________.

C．He used to work as a salesman.

【答案】

【解析】語篇解讀 文章介紹了單獨旅行的好處、挑戰(zhàn)以及感受。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“it is something everyone should do”可知答案為A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段的第一句話“在國外，沒有人幫你看地圖，你生病的時候沒有人照顧你，你錢包被偷的時候沒有人借錢給你，這些都是有挑戰(zhàn)性的”可知應(yīng)選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第四段的第一句話可知A項錯誤，而C項正確。根據(jù)第五段的第一句話可知B項錯誤，文章中用的是比喻的修辭手法，并不是胳膊上真的中了一槍；D項文中未涉及。

【4】 主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的“traveling around the world on their own”以及下文多次出現(xiàn)的alone一詞可知，B項最適合作文章標(biāo)題，其中unaccompanied“無人陪伴的”與alone同義。

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。

The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert（警覺）. Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze（凝視）starts to lose its focus--until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?

Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise（同樣地）when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.

【1】Babies are sensitive to the change in _______.

A. the size of cards B. the colour of pictures

C. the shape of patterns D. the number of objects

【2】Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?

A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment

B. To see how babies recognize sounds

C. To carry their experiment further

D. To keep the babes interest.

【3】Where does this text probably come from?

A. Science fiction B. Children’s literature

C. An advertisement D. A science report
