【题干】根据短文内容，从下框的A～F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余项。
A．Real winners of tourism
B．Negative effects of tourism
C．Growing tourism in the world
D．Developing tourism with caution
E．Benefits to the locals from tourism
F．Tourism problems and possible solutions
1．__________________________
On the Mediterranean island of Majorca in Spain, the locals are angry: Too late．In the last quarter of the 20th century, they obtained profit from foreign visitors wanting to buy up property on their beautiful island．Suddenly it occurred to Majorcans that the island no longer belonged to them．Its 630, 000 inhabitants (居民) are increasingly convinced that the 14 million visitors a year are far too much of a good thing．Water is in short supply, pollution is worsening, and there is no affordable housing left for them to buy．
2．__________________________
Tourism is the world’s largest and fastest growing industry．In 1950,25 million people traveled abroad; last year it was 750 million．The World Tourism Organization predicts that 1．6 billion people ,by 2020 ,will travel each year, spending over two trillion (万亿) us dollars．
3．__________________________
The host country may not see many benefits．In Thailand,60% of the ＄4 billion annual tourism income leaves the country．Tourists arranged by travel companies tend to stay at big foreign—owned hotels, buying few local products．Mass tourism (团队旅游 ) usually leaves little money inside the country and most of the money goes to the airlines, the tour operators, and the foreign hotel owners, who are the final winners of tourism．
4．__________________________
These days the industry’s most urgent question may be how to control the flow of tourists．A typical example of this is Italy, where great cultural centers like Florence and Venice can’t handle all the tourists they get every summer．In Florence, its half—million inhabit—ants have to live with the pollution, traffic jam, and crime caused by 11 million visitors a year．Now there’s talk about how to solve these problems, like raising hotel taxes, or even charging admission to some public squares．The idea is to discourage at least some visitors, as well as to pay for cleaning up the mess．
5．__________________________
For many poorer countries, tourism may still offer the best hope for development．The Vietnamese are doing their best to open up their country．Libya has paid ＄1 million for a study．They all want tourists．Yet if something isn’t done, tourism seems certain to become the victim of its own success．Its effect on the environment is a major concern．For this reason, tourist organizations need to have second
thoughts about what exactly they are trying to sell．
【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A
4．F 5．D
【解析】1．由本段最后一句可知由于外来游客增多，导致岛上水资源短缺，污染加重，房价上涨导致当地人甚至都买不起房子。这都是由于旅游业过度发展带来的负面影响，故选B。
2．由本段第一句可知，旅游业是世界上规模最大、发展最快的产业，故选C。
3．根据本段最后一句“．．．who are the final winners of tourism．”可知选A。
4．根据本段两个关键句“These days the industry’s most urgent question may be how to control the flow of tourists．”及“Now时there’s talk about how to solve these problems．．．”可知选F。
5．根据文章最后一句“．．．tourist organizations need to have second thoughts about what exactly they are trying to sell．”可知选D。

Organizing Your Time

Take care of tasks at the same time every day．Plan time for daily health care, commuting (乘公交下上班),work, shopping, eating, and chores(家务)．Add in time for anything else you do most days, such as homework, exercise, or an active hobby． 18 All the time left over is your free time, to use for relaxation or whatever else you want．
19 For example, you might plan to go, dropping on your way home from work, to save the extra trip．
For many people, an irregular work schedule make this kind of budget difficult． 20
A．However, you can still plan to work around your schedule in the same order every day．
B．Stick to it, even on weekends．
C．Try to combine trips outside the home to maximize your free time．
D．Different days call for different approaches．

【题干】Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children．
During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping．He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suit case was gone．He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport．
He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organised again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one．
Late in the evening, the phone rang．It was a stranger．He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions．Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath．
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents．Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers．Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents．At last they had seen a half—written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend．
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people．We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way．
1．What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney

B．Find a house．
C．Join his family．
D．Take a vacation．

【解析】语篇解读 本文为记叙文。从印度来到悉尼的第一个星期，作者的丈夫Rashid的手提箱被盗，里面装有重要文件，包括护照，在这个举目无亲的陌生城市里，他会得到帮助吗？
1．细节理解题。根据第一段中while looking for a house for me and our children可知，Rashid在抵达悉尼之后，计划为家人寻找一套房子。
2．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，女孩的父母在Rashid写了一半的信中发现了他给朋友留下的新电话号码。
3．词义猜测题。倒数第二段第一句提示Rashid是亲自登门，故在这里restore指这家人归还(give back)他被盗的文件，而非展示、分发或递送。
4．主旨大意题。本文讲述了一户善良的人家在垃圾桶内发现了Rashid被盗的重要文件并归还给他。故C项标题“变废为宝”符合文章主旨。

I‘ve often wondered if I might do more good as a travel agent rather than as a psychologist． It seems that I have been more dramatically affected by certain kinds of travel experiences than I ever have．
My trip to Iceland is a fine example of that．The plan was to spend two days in a remote mountain hut in Iceland．I was working on a photographic book about winter in Iceland and needed to capture images of this amazing region of high mountain peaks, smoky volcanoes, and lakes with floating icebergs．
The moment after we arrived, the weather turned extreme making visibility impossible．It snowed so much and the wind blew so hard that we couldn’t leave the tiny hut．To stay warm, we walked around in circles much of the day inside the tiny hut．We tried to call for help but the radio did not work．Day after day, we watched our supplies of food and fuel grow dangerously short．We got acute cabin fever(幽居病) and started going for walks and ski expeditions outside．Even when the weather finally broke, nobody came to get us even though it was three days beyond our scheduled pick—up．By the time the rescue team came to pull us out, we had all given up hope．
From then on, the world looks different to me, as does my life．It would have taken me years of psychotherapy to get to the same point．
Almost everyone has a story to tell, and interestingly, most of these experiences were not altogether pleasant at the time．In fact, it appears that the most constructive life—changing journeys were those that involved some sorts of awful and uncomfortable events that forced the person to develop new resources, increase confidence, and solve problems in new ways．
1．The writer went to Iceland to__________．
A．enjoy the natural beautiful floating icebergs
B．take photos about the region for a book
C．collect materials for psychological research

A．they got lost in the mountain
B．they were short of food and fuel
C．they couldn’t see the surroundings clearly
D．they failed to get in touch with the rescue team
3．From Paragraph 3,we learn that the travelers__________．
A．were in despair before they were rescued
B．stayed in the hut for three days altogether
C．got sick because of going for ski outside
D．got rescued immediately when the weather turned fine
4．Which of the following statements is true according to the pas—sage
A．The writer is a travel agent who loves difficult challenges．
B．In Iceland the weather is always extreme and it snows a lot．
C．The travelers were so depressed that they needed psychotherapy．
D．Awful journeys may become life—changing events that inspire people．
【答案】1．B 2．A 3．A 4．D
【解析】语篇解读 本文提到作者要拍一本书的图画，去一个小岛，当时的气候不适合拍摄，他们碰到大雪，食物短缺。当救援队到达时，他们已经放弃了希望。作者认为这些经历会使人增加自信，用新的方法来面对生活中的挑战。

Three Japanese tourists taking a holiday in Australia got stuck when their CPS told them they could drive from the mainland to an island, failing to mention the 15 kilometres of water and mud in between．
As they drove their hired car from Moreton Bay in Queensland to nearby North Stradbroke Island, they started to notice the firm gravel(沙石) surface they were driving on giving way to the renowned bay mud．However, being confident that their GPS would direct them to a road soon, they decided to plough on, managing to travel around 500 metres before their Hyundai Getz(现代汽车) was up to its axles tires in mud．To make matters worse, the tide started to come in and soon forced them to seek help and abandon the vehicle．Just four hours later the car was trapped in two metres of water—to the great amusement of onlookers on the shore and passengers on passing boats and ferries．
Yuzu Noda,21,said she was listening to the GPS and “it told us we could drive down there．It kept saying it would navigate us to a road．But we got stuck．．．there’s lots of mud．” She and her travel companions Tomonari Saeki, 22, and Keita Osada, 21, had to give up their plans for a day trip to the island and headed back to the Gold Coast by a lift from the RACQ tow truck(吊车) driver who was called to the trapped car．No such luck for the hired car though—after assessing the situation, no attempt was made to recover it．The students from Tokyo, who were due to return home tomorrow, said the experience would not put them off returning to Australia for another visit．“We want to come back to Australia again．Everyone is very nice, even today．” Ms Yuzu said．
Remaining excited, Mr．Tomonari joked that the car might have got stuck because it was built in Korea．“Maybe if it was Japanese it would be okay,” he said．He added, “It has rained every day on our six—day holiday．Hopefully next time we come back it will be sunny．” The car was covered by insurance, but the tourists will have to pay up to about ＄1,500 in extra charges．

Long bus rides are like television shows．They have a beginning, a middle, and an end—with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes．The commercials are unavoidable．They happen whether you want them or not．Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window．“Buy Super Clean Toothpaste．” “ Drink Cood’n Wet Root Beer．” “Fill up with Pacific Gas．” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now !”
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before．Usually some things have changed—new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road．The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so．If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story．Will the driver pass the truck in time Will the driver move into the right or the left—hand lane After a while, of course, the excitement dies down．Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride．Food always makes bus rides more interesting．But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat．Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops．
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning．You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that．The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed．By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rests—even with your hands crossed behind your head．The end comes just at no more ways to sit．
9．According to the writer, long bus rides and TV shows are similar in that
A．they are both long and boring, with commercials disturbing you all the time,
B．they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in between
C．they are both exciting, with new things to see in every three or four minutes
D．they both make you sit in your seat uncomfortably for a very long time
10．When passengers get tired, they tend to
A．watch the commercials
B．eat food
C．cross their legs
D．change their ways to sit
11．What is the purpose of this passage
A．To warn people of the danger on long bus trips．
B．To persuade readers to take a long bus trip．
C．To describe the writer’s own feelings from long bus trips．
D．To explain how bus trips and television shows differ．

As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese , Spanish , and Arabic , other languages are rapidly disappearing．In fact, half of the 6, 000—7, 000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization
( UNESCO)．In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations—UNESCO and National Geographic among them —have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect．
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition．His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an, Ethnolinguistic Introduction, to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal．
Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China．But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record．
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials—including photographs , films, tape recordings, and field notes—which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection．
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded—the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project—Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected．Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities．
12．Many scholars are making efforts to
A．promote global languages
B．rescue disappearing languages
C．search for language communities
D．set up language research organizations
13．What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Having full records of the languages．
B．Writing books on language teaching．
C．Telling stories about language users．
D．Living with the native speakers．
14．What is Turin’s book based on
A．The cultural studies in India．
B．The documents available at Yale．
C．His language research in Bhutan．
D．His personal experience in Nepal．
15．Which of the following best describes Turin’s work？
A．Write, sell and donate．
B．Record, repair and reward．

How People Spend Their Holidays
As can be seen from the table, the past decade has witnessed dramatic changes in the way people spent their holidays between 2000 and 2010．1n 2000,60% of people spent their holidays at home, while the figure dropped considerably t0 25% in 2010．1t is obvious from the table that people tended to be more and more mo—bile, and they wanted to get entertainment in the outside world．
What contributed to these changes I think the reasons are as follows．To start with, with the rapid development of economy, people earn far more money than they used to．Thus, people are able to afford traveling expenses．Secondly, people think it important to get well—informed about the outside world in this new era when every—thing is on the move．Traveling, of course, is a way to achieve this goal．What’s more, in this competitive society, people are usually un—der great stress．However, it is not difficult to find that traveling is an effective way to relieve people’s stress and get relaxation．Last but not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is not only beneficial to both their health and peace of mind．
In conclusion, people prefer to go traveling rather than stay at home during holidays for a combination of reasons．Moreover, it seems that this trend will last in the foreseeable future．
