【解析】 本文為說(shuō)明文。本文主要介紹第一次出國(guó)旅行，推薦的最佳去處是英國(guó)。并介紹了去英國(guó)旅行時(shí)要做的準(zhǔn)備。

【1】 考查對(duì)上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。根據(jù)空后的If you don’t have a current passport, you’ll need to bring your pictures and some proof of your citizenship—a birth certificate, a certificate of naturalization, 可知，如果沒(méi)有護(hù)照的話就要準(zhǔn)備其它的證明。由此可知本段說(shuō)的是出國(guó)旅行要有護(hù)照，分析選項(xiàng)，可知D項(xiàng)（You’ll need a passport and visa to visit England）符合題意，故選D項(xiàng)。

【2】考查對(duì)上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。本段的小標(biāo)題為“Plan Your Trip”，計(jì)劃好旅行。文中講述了在冬季情況，下面可能會(huì)是談的夏季，分析選項(xiàng)E（The summer brings in record—breaking numbers of tourists） 符合題意，故選E項(xiàng)。

【3】考查對(duì)上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。 分析空前內(nèi)容可知要找到可負(fù)擔(dān)的起的旅館，分析選項(xiàng)可知G項(xiàng)與“能負(fù)擔(dān)的起的住房”有關(guān)。分析G項(xiàng)（但他們通常提供負(fù)擔(dān)得起的住房，以最小的樂(lè)趣）可知，G項(xiàng)符合題意，故選G項(xiàng)。

【4】考查對(duì)上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。本段是說(shuō)要在英國(guó)轉(zhuǎn)轉(zhuǎn)，最常用的方法是公共汽車(chē)和鐵路。及空后出現(xiàn)的pass，與選項(xiàng)F項(xiàng)有詞的復(fù)現(xiàn)。分析F選If you decide to use the underground rail system, get a pass.如果你決定用地下鐵路系統(tǒng)，要用一個(gè)通行證。符合題意，故選F項(xiàng)。

【5】考查對(duì)上下文的理解及推理判斷能力。本題是小標(biāo)題，分析本段的內(nèi)容可知，買(mǎi)一本旅游預(yù)算書(shū)，了解在英國(guó)該做什么，到哪旅行。分析選項(xiàng)可知，B項(xiàng)（ Find the Best Things to Do）找到該做的事情去做。分析選項(xiàng)可知B項(xiàng)正確。

該題型對(duì)學(xué)生的考察能力總體從兩個(gè)方面來(lái)考察；第一，把握整篇文章的布局和邏輯層次關(guān)系。第二把握微觀信息間關(guān)聯(lián)性。（即空格前后句間關(guān)系。 該題型選項(xiàng)大致可分為主旨概括句（文章整體內(nèi)容）；過(guò)渡性句子（文章結(jié)構(gòu)）和注釋性句子（上下文邏輯意義）三類。

這種題一般可從以下方面來(lái)做：

（1）看首段，跳過(guò)空格快速通讀全篇，了解文章大意。

（2）精讀空格前后兩句，利用各種銜接手段選擇正確的選項(xiàng)填入空格。七選五空出的是整個(gè)句子，而這些句子與句子之間，必然有一種聯(lián)系，因此我們可以通過(guò)選項(xiàng)中某個(gè)名詞或動(dòng)詞跟空前或空后的一致性或者相關(guān)性來(lái)確定這兩個(gè)句子之間有一種關(guān)聯(lián)性，從而選擇正確的答案。如第1題通過(guò)關(guān)鍵詞passport找出正確選項(xiàng)D項(xiàng)。第 3小題分析空前空后的內(nèi)容可知本段說(shuō)的是能負(fù)擔(dān)的起的住房”有關(guān)，從而選中G項(xiàng)。

（3）看選項(xiàng)，找出與空前空后句中心詞同義，近義或相關(guān)性的詞語(yǔ)。實(shí)現(xiàn)關(guān)鍵詞的對(duì)接，先易后難，各個(gè)突破。正確選項(xiàng)的特點(diǎn)：復(fù)現(xiàn)，包括同義反復(fù)，反義反復(fù)。如第4題根據(jù)pass與所選項(xiàng)中的詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，代入句中驗(yàn)證正確。
