They say that "travel is the best teacher" and there is no better example of this idea than the Ming dynasty travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake (1587-1641). His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake, not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country's land and geography.
Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age and wanted to travel. When he was 18, however, Xu's father died and so, it seemed, did his travelling dreams. He now was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required.
But his mother had different ideas. Understanding her son's love of travel and valuing the knowledge he could get from such experiences, this modern-thinking woman refused to keep her son at home. She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year, when there was less farm work.
So at the age of twenty and with his mother's support, Xu set off for the first time, leaving behind not only his mother but his new wife as well. He would repeat this goodbye each year for most of the next 30 years. During this time, he travelled throughout the Ming kingdom, carefully studying the lands he passed through and recording his experiences and many discoveries in a diary. This diary, which once had over 500,000 words, would finally become The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake.
Although rich, Xu avoided comfortable travel, preferring to go almost everywhere on foot. This way he could research the environment in detail and get a true picture of the natural world. Many of his trips were to hard-to-reach mountain areas, and through wild forests where few people lived. His willingness to face hardships came at a cost however. Progress was slow and tiring and he was frequently sick, robbed and beaten during his journeys.
Sadly Xu became seriously ill during his last and longest journey, a 4-year trip through the Southwest of China. He died in 1641, soon after returning to his hometown for the last time. When his diary was finally printed years after his death, much of it had been destroyed or lost. Although incomplete, it still made Xu a travelling legend (传奇人物) around the world.
26．Which of the following best describes Xu's mother
A．Strict but interesting. B．Supportive and open-minded.
C．Helpful and hardworking. D．Kind but uneducated.
27．Xu preferred walking during his travels because ______.
A．it gave him the chance to meet different kinds of people
B．it helped him to save money and travel for a longer time
C．it allowed him to see and study the environment in detail
D．it was the only way to reach the places he was interested in
28．What is true about Xu's book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake
A．It was the first travel book ever written in China.
B．It made Xu very famous during his lifetime.
C．It was mainly about the different people of China.
D．It was only made public after Xu died.
29．What is the best title for the passage
A．Xu Xiake's Life Story B．Xu Xiake's Discovery
C．Xu Xiake's Travelling Experience D．Xu Xiake's Book
30．What is the correct order for the following events from Xu's life
a. He went on his first journey.
b. His book was finally printed.
c. He returned to his hometown for the last time.
d. He developed an interest in books about other places.
e. He started managing the family farm after his father died.
A．a-e-d-c-b B．d-e-a-b-c C．d-e-a-c-b D．e-d-a-b-c

Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles. Learn as much as you can and do all you can. Travel can teach people more than a textbook. I value the memories I have travelled all over the world. There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experience will make one a better person.
I remember when I was traveling that I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realize that people are similar in their dreams, hopes and feelings. Enjoy exploring the different cultures, and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it need not be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas, do we find that those stories are something wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can't just get money to send to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved(干预) and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and finding about their lives is a great way to spend your time. You will certainly be more confident after having to solve problems and make many decisions along the way.
Traveling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us is a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place.
We all want to travel but our greatest limitations are from within. Seeing the world is not leisure but provides interesting elements that will help us grow and discover ourselves. More than that, it boosts our creativity and recharges our spirit to face life challenges. Thus, it is important to quit making these excuses and hit the road.
31．From Paragraph 2, we can learn that_______.
A．people should enjoy their lives.
B．you will meet different people from all over the world
C．travelling can help us better understand the world.
D．people in different places have strange living habits.
32．The expression “ignore” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “ ”.
A．逃避 B．避免 C．忽视 D．忘记
33．According to Paragraph 4, we can along the way to travel.
A．know many friends B．be more confident to do things
C．make many decisions D．solve problems
34．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage
A．Helps One Make More Friends.
B．People in the World Are Family Traveling
C．People in the World Share One Dream.
D．Traveling Makes One a Better Person.
35．What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the passage

第二节、阅读回答问题（10分，每题1分）
In order to get away from the busy life in the big city, two young men decided to spend a holiday in the countryside. They enjoyed the beautiful scenery and fresh air there. One day, while taking a walk together, they crossed a large field.
“Look out!” one of the young men shouted, because a bull（公牛） appeared and began to chase（追赶）them. The bull looked like a monster and made a terrible roar（咆哮）, rolling its big eyes. They were very scared. They ran as fast as they could, but the bull kept running after them.
Finally, one of the men climbed up a tree. The other jumped into a hole, but soon he came out of it. And then the bull chased him back into the hole.
“Stay there!” his friend shouted, but soon the man came out again, and again the bull chased him right back.
The same thing went on another three times.
At last, the man in the tree got angry and shouted to his friend, “How foolish you are! I have told you to stay in the hole for a while! Why are you always coming out ”
“It's easy for you to say,” the other man said more angrily. “But there is a bear in the hole!”
So you see, sometimes things are not what they appear to be. We should always try to stand in others' shoes and look from there.
