“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go to do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive,” said Howard Thurman. Yes, one of the best ways to learn about other people and other places is visiting, connecting and experiencing them yourself. Traveling around the world opens your mind.
I remember when I was traveling, 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 will not be strange or scary. Often you read stories about other cultures in books. Only when you visit their areas do you find that those stories are sometimes wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. You cannot just get money to be sent to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore (忽视) this if one does not travel or explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges bigger than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet a lot 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 deal with problems and make many decisions along the way.
When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures (冒险) and special memories.
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.
1. What’s Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. We can realize our dreams by traveling.
B. We can better understand the world by traveling.
C. We can find stories in books are sometimes wrong by traveling.
D. We can know people all over the world are different by traveling.
2. What does the writer advise us to do to help the areas in need
A. Find out their problems. B. Send them money.
C. Give them challenges. D. Offer them chances.
3. What is the best title of the passage
A. Traveling makes one a better person.
B. Traveling makes cultures more colorful.
C. Traveling helps people solve problems.
D. Traveling helps people make more friends.
4. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A. To show how traveling can change the world.
B. To tell people how to travel around the world.
C. To encourage more people to travel around the world.
D. To share the writer’s travel experiences with other people.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C
【解析】本文主要讲述的是鼓励人们旅行的原因,这种经历会使一个人变得更好,如果我们能多旅行一点,分享我们的经历,我们都会成为更好的人,世界就会变得更美好。
1.段落大意题,根据“I remember when I was traveling, I began to know the world better.”及全段内容可知第二段主要讲我们可以通过旅行更好地了解世界。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据“People everywhere should be given a chance.”可知,作者认为应该给世界各地的人们一个机会来帮助有需要的地区。故选D。
3.标题归纳题。根据“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.”可知本文主要强调旅行对人的意义,旅行会让人更优秀。故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据“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.”可知,作者认为如果我们能多旅行一点,分享我们的经历,我们都会成为更好的人,世界也会变得更美好,所以是鼓励人们去环游世界。故选C。

“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go to do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive,” said Howard Thurman. Yes, one of the best ways to learn about other people and other places is visiting, connecting and experiencing them yourself. Traveling around the world opens your mind.
I remember when I was traveling, 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 will not be strange or scary. Often you read stories about other cultures in books. Only when you visit their areas do you find that those stories are sometimes wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. You cannot just get money to be sent to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore (忽视) this if one does not travel or explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges bigger than ours. One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet a lot 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 deal with problems and make many decisions along the way.
When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures (冒险) and special memories.
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.
