Country Walks
Hope village
A leisurely (悠闲的) way to spend an hour or two is by visiting the busy village of Hope with its lovely country gardens. A gentle walk towards the hills will soon bring you to excellent views.
Country Park
The Lime House here attracts thousands of visitors, but this is a pleasant walk away from the crowds, through parkland, woods and up onto the hills. Popular with bird-watchers. Allow three hours. The house was built in 1570.
Cornford
This is an easy walk through a little-known valley. See the 200-year-old buildings from the cloth-making industry which now stand empty.
Devonshire Park
Allow at least half a day, or make it a full day by visiting the adventure playground and farmyard. Stop at the cafe (open all day) or enjoy the fantastic gardens. Guided walks are available (可获得的) for small groups.
Howden lake
This two-hour walk attracts thousands of visitors. Children can go sailing on the lake with trainers.
Stanton
This walk is certainly for very fit walkers only—the paths get very slippery (滑的) after rain. Allow six hours and start early! You’re unlikely to meet another person all day. Be sure to pack food—you’ll be up on the hilltops all day.
Strines
You need to be used to walking to successfully complete this seven-hour walk through the wildest scenery in the area. Follow a little-known footpath to the highest point for miles.
Langsett
This is an exciting walk along easy paths, which are crowded at weekend. And it s a popular place for family picnics. Guided walks start from the near village (10am Sundays) and visit 800-year-old woodland.

Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way.
4. The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to .
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded B. present travel as an amazing experience
C. show how the way people travel has changed D. describe important cultural exchanges in history
5. By saying “the best travel is when it’s for the first time”, the author means .
A. one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B. no other trip is better than one’s first trip
C. there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D. people usually make better preparations for their first trip
6. The underlined word “recreation” in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A. fun B. risk C. learning D. knowledge
7. According to the last two paragraphs the author believes that .
A. traveling should be included in formal education
B. traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C. foreign journeys can enrich people’s knowledge of the world
D. foreign ways of life are better than our own way of life at home.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了旅行是一种令人惊异的经历，不仅可以娱乐，更重要的是有学习的意义。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.(旅行是一个人所能拥有的最令人兴奋的经历之一。想象一下，当意大利旅行家马可·波罗来到中国的土地上，看到一种与以往迥然不同的生活方式时，他会作何感想)”以及第二段中“And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia (当张骞游历中亚和西亚回到中国时，听到他的讲述该是多么美妙啊？)”可推知，举的这两个例子是为了表明旅游是令人惊讶的经历。故选B项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.(他们也许知道旅行前会发生什么。这就是为什么最好的旅行是第一次。想象一下，一个人一直想去美国旅行。当然，他们可能已经在电视上看过一千次自由女神像、白宫和所有其他著名景点。但这一切都比不上飞机降落时望向窗外，看到真正的美国城市和街道映入眼帘时的兴奋)”由此判断出作者说“the best travel is when it’s for the first time”的意思是没有旅行能够比得上第一次旅行。故选B项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.(但这一切都比不上飞机降落时望向窗外，看到真正的美国城市和街道映入眼帘时的兴奋)”可知，当飞机降落时，从机舱窗户向外看，看到真正的美国的城市和街道进入视野时，那种兴奋感是无法与之相比的。由此判断出，可知划线的词是说旅游除了有教育意义外，还很有趣。故划线词的意思是“有趣”。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way.(随着我们对外国的了解，我们开始明白有很多不同的生活方式，我们的生活方式不一定是最好的)”可推知，作者认为出国旅行可以提高人们对世界文化的理解。故选C项。
C
How do you usually spend your spare time Many people choose to be couch potatoes, but not Luo Han, a 9-year-old from Changsha, Hunan.
Luo Han completes at least two hours of outdoor activities every day and has raised a wave of discussion online. Although he is in primary school, he has already mastered sports like kayaking and paddling. His aptitude for outdoor sports is from his father Luo Ge, who actively encourages him to enjoy nature, rather than focusing only on his learning. After noticing that Luo Han did not go out for enough exercise after school, his father took him to do outdoor activities every day.
Many applauded them. “Exercise can ease brain fog and improve memory. Many students feel stressed about school work, so outdoor activities can help us keep our moods uplifted and improve our learning efficiency.” said Liu Yu, 18, a university freshman. Wang Tao, a parent of a 16-year-old, showed her support for the father. “It’s more than a way to relax. It’s a training of willpower,” she said. Her son He Xin, from Hefei Thomas School, Anhui, is a fan of outdoor sports. Although facing increasing pressure in his studies, he has joined the school’s athletic programs.
However, some have also expressed their concerns. “Two hours isn’t too much for a 9-year-old, but it might be difficult for high school students to guarantee this block of time when school becomes more demanding,” said Huang Xi, 16, from Liyang High School of Jiangsu province.
Ms. Zhu, who has a daughter in middle school, also agreed that two hours is too much for the majority of parents, especially on weekdays. “When I am off duty, I need to do housework. After my daughter finishes her homework, she prefers to watch TV. Neither of us would think of going outside for exercise,” Zhu said.
Other parents are concerned about the safety of outdoor activities. Zhang Zhijin has a son in high school. “Sometimes, teenagers can do crazy and risky things. We worry about accidents,” Zhang said.
8. Which of the following is true
A. Liu Yu thinks outdoor activities can improve our learning.
B. Outdoor playing is only good to relaxation.
C. Luo Han ’s father thinks learning is more important than exercising.
D. Luo Han’s father thinks exercise on campus is enough for him.
9. What does the author mean by the underlined word “stressed” in Paragraph 3
A. annoyed B. excited C. anxious D. frightened
10. Which of the following may agree with Ms Zhu
A. Huang Xi B. Liu Yu C. Wang Tao D. Luo Han
11. What's the best title of the passage
A. Please go out for exercise B. Daily outdoor play and working
C. People’s concerns D. Parent’s views on after-class work
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要就学生该不该保证日常户外活动时间引发的讨论而展开，介绍了不同的人对此的看法。有人认为户外活动可以缓解紧张情绪，放松学生的身心，而有些人则认为高中生无法保证有充足的户外时间，家长则担忧对户外活动安全性。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“‘Many students feel stressed about school work, so outdoor activities can help us keep our moods uplifted and improve our learning efficiency.'said Liu Yu, 18, a university freshman(18岁的大一新生刘宇说：‘许多学生对学校的学业感到有压力，所以户外活动可以帮助我们保持我们的情绪高涨，提高我们的学习效率’)”可知，A选项“刘宇认为户外活动可以提高我们的学习”正确。故选A。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“so outdoor activities can help us keep our moods uplifted and improve our learning efficiency”可知户外活动可以帮助学生保持心情愉快，提高学习效率，可推知是因为学生对学校的学业感到忧虑，所以才需要户外活动来缓解，故画线词意思为“忧虑的”。A. annoyed恼怒的；B. excited激动的；C. anxious忧虑的；D. frightened害怕的。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Ms. Zhu, who has a daughter in middle school, also agreed that two hours is too much for the majority of parents, especially on weekdays.(朱女士有一个上中学的女儿，她也认为两个小时对大多数父母来说太长了，尤其是在工作日)”以及倒数第三段中“‘Two hours isn’t too much for a 9-year-old, but it might be difficult for high school students to guarantee this block of time when school becomes more demanding’said Huang Xi, 16, from Liyang High School of Jiangsu province.(‘两个小时对一个9岁的孩子来说不算多，但对高中生来说，当学校要求越来越高的时候，要保证这段时间是很困难的’，来自江苏省溧阳中学的16岁学生黄曦说)”可知，黄曦可能与朱女士观点一致。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Luo Han completes at least two hours of outdoor activities every day and has raised a wave of discussion online. .(罗涵天至少要完成两个小时的户外活动，并在网上引发了一波讨论)”可知，文章主要就学生该不该保证日常户外活动时间引发的讨论而展开，介绍了不同的人对此的看法。有人认为户外活动可以缓解紧张情绪，放松学生的身心，而有些人则认为高中生无法保证有充足的户外时间，家长则担忧对户外活动安全性。故B选项“日常户外活动和学业”最符合文章标题。故选B。
D
Scientists developed vaccines (疫苗)against a new disease in less than 12 months. And yet，18 months after the first of these vaccines, against COVID-19, were put on the market, just 15% of people in developing countries have been fully vaccinated. Such unfairness costs lives and uncovers a long-standing problem that some countries have been forced to depend on others for life-saving science and technology. It is unacceptable, for example, that in Africa, a continent of 54 independent countries and 1.2 billion people, 99% of vaccines are from other countries.
The World Health Organization (WHO)is searching for a way to get vaccines to more people more easily.Last year, the WHO started a program called the mRNA vaccine technology center. The goal of the program is to develop and produce mRNA vaccines and treatments(for COVID-19 and other diseases) in developing countries from the technology used in developed countries highly successful COVID-19 vaccines.
More importantly，the cooperation (合作)between universities and companies based in developing countries is needed to realize the goal. On July 8th,the USA National Institutes of Health, where much of the research on mRNA vaccines was carried out, joined this program to help build vaccine technology centers in developing countries.
Besides the necessity of fairness, outbreaks would end sooner if every country could depend on its own defence. As Larry Brilliant，a scientist of the US National Institutes of Health who helps wipe out smallpox(天花)，told Nature，“Fairness is often thought of as a burden(负担)，but it is a strategic need in the battle against COVID-19.”
12. Why does the author mention Africa in paragraph 1
A. To lead in the topic.
B. To show the unfairness in vaccines.
C. To stress the importance of vaccines.
D. To say thanks to the help from developed countries.
13. Why did the WHO start the program
A. To make more people in developing countries get vaccines.
B. To build up a center to attract experts in developing vaccines
C. To get the technology used in successful COVID-19 vaccines,
D. To strengthen the cooperation between universities and companies.
14. What can we conclude from the last paragraph
A. Fairness is a burden, so it is not necessary.
B. We’ll win the battle sooner if every country has its defence.
C. Fairness is necessary because it can stop COVID-19 from breaking out.
D. Wiping out smallpox is a strategic need in the battle against COVID-19.
15. What is the most suitable title for the text
A. Why fairness is necessary
B. How did WHO start the program
C. How did scientists develop vaccines
D. Why is a vaccine center for developing countries a must
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了发展中国家只有15%的人接种COVID-19的疫苗，这种不公平情况，揭露了发展中国家在这种类似于救命的科学技术上被迫依赖的现象一直存在，此外也说明了只有基于发展中国家的世界合作，让更多的发展中国家拥有疫苗中心才能真正取得对抗COVID-19的胜利。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Such unfairness costs lives and uncovers a long-standing problem that some countries have been forced to depend on others for life-saving science and technology.(这种不公平使人丧生，并暴露出一些国家被迫依赖其他国家提供拯救生命的科学和技术的长期问题。)”可知，提到非洲国家，是为了表明在疫苗方面是不公平的。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The goal of the program is to develop and produce mRNA vaccines and treatments(for COVID-19 and other diseases) in developing countries from the technology used in developed countries highly successful COVID-19 vaccines.(该计划的目标是利用发达国家非常成功的COVID-19疫苗所使用的技术，在发展中国家开发和生产mRNA疫苗和治疗方法（针对COVID-19和其他疾病）。)”可知，世卫组织启动这项计划的目标是让更多的发展中国家的人们接种疫苗。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Besides the necessity of fairness, outbreaks would end sooner if every country could depend on its own defence. (除了公平的必要性外，如果每个国家都能依靠自己的防御，疫情就会更快地结束。)”可以推断如果每个国家能够做出自我防护，战胜疫情很快就会实现。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段中的“…, just 15% of people in developing countries have been fully vaccinated.(...，发展中国家只有15%的人完全接种了疫苗。)”，第二段中“The goal of the program is to develop and produce mRNA vaccines and treatments(for COVID-19 and other diseases) in developing countries from the technology used in developed countries highly successful COVID-19 vaccines.(该计划的目标是利用发达国家非常成功的COVID-19疫苗所使用的技术，在发展中国家开发和生产mRNA疫苗和治疗方法（针对COVID-19和其他疾病）。)”以及第三段中的“…where much of the research on mRNA vaccines was carried out, joined this program to help build vaccine technology centers in developing countries.(...在对mRNA疫苗进行大部分研究的地方，加入了该计划，以帮助在发展中国家建立疫苗技术中心。)”可知，文章主题应该是在介绍为什么在发展中国家发展疫苗中心很必要。故选D项。

Hope village
A leisurely (悠闲的) way to spend an hour or two is by visiting the busy village of Hope with its lovely country gardens. A gentle walk towards the hills will soon bring you to excellent views.
Country Park
The Lime House here attracts thousands of visitors, but this is a pleasant walk away from the crowds, through parkland, woods and up onto the hills. Popular with bird-watchers. Allow three hours. The house was built in 1570.

This is an easy walk through a little-known valley. See the 200-year-old buildings from the cloth-making industry which now stand empty.

Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way.
4. The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to .
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded B. present travel as an amazing experience
C. show how the way people travel has changed D. describe important cultural exchanges in history

C there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D. people usually make better preparations for their first trip

A. traveling should be included in formal education
B. traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C. foreign journeys can enrich people’s knowledge of the world
D. foreign ways of life are better than our own way of life at home.

How do you usually spend your spare time Many people choose to be couch potatoes, but not Luo Han, a 9-year-old from Changsha, Hunan.
Luo Han completes at least two hours of outdoor activities every day and has raised a wave of discussion online. Although he is in primary school, he has already mastered sports like kayaking and paddling. His aptitude for outdoor sports is from his father Luo Ge, who actively encourages him to enjoy nature, rather than focusing only on his learning. After noticing that Luo Han did not go out for enough exercise after school, his father took him to do outdoor activities every day.
Many applauded them. “Exercise can ease brain fog and improve memory. Many students feel stressed about school work, so outdoor activities can help us keep our moods uplifted and improve our learning efficiency.” said Liu Yu, 18, a university freshman. Wang Tao, a parent of a 16-year-old, showed her support for the father. “It’s more than a way to relax. It’s a training of willpower,” she said. Her son He Xin, from Hefei Thomas School, Anhui, is a fan of outdoor sports. Although facing increasing pressure in his studies, he has joined the school’s athletic programs.
However, some have also expressed their concerns. “Two hours isn’t too much for a 9-year-old, but it might be difficult for high school students to guarantee this block of time when school becomes more demanding,” said Huang Xi, 16, from Liyang High School of Jiangsu province.
Ms. Zhu, who has a daughter in middle school, also agreed that two hours is too much for the majority of parents, especially on weekdays. “When I am off duty, I need to do housework. After my daughter finishes her homework, she prefers to watch TV. Neither of us would think of going outside for exercise,” Zhu said.
Other parents are concerned about the safety of outdoor activities. Zhang Zhijin has a son in high school. “Sometimes, teenagers can do crazy and risky things. We worry about accidents,” Zhang said.
8. Which of the following is true
A. Liu Yu thinks outdoor activities can improve our learning.
B. Outdoor playing is only good to relaxation.
C. Luo Han ’s father thinks learning is more important than exercising.
D. Luo Han’s father thinks exercise on campus is enough for him.
9. What does the author mean by the underlined word “stressed” in Paragraph 3
A. annoyed B. excited C. anxious D. frightened
10. Which of the following may agree with Ms Zhu
A. Huang Xi B. Liu Yu C. Wang Tao D. Luo Han
11. What's the best title of the passage
A. Please go out for exercise B. Daily outdoor play and working
C. People’s concerns D. Parent’s views on after-class work
D
Scientists developed vaccines (疫苗)against a new disease in less than 12 months. And yet，18 months after the first of these vaccines, against COVID-19, were put on the market, just 15% of people in developing countries have been fully vaccinated. Such unfairness costs lives and uncovers a long-standing problem that some countries have been forced to depend on others for life-saving science and technology. It is unacceptable, for example, that in Africa, a continent of 54 independent countries and 1.2 billion people, 99% of vaccines are from other countries.
The World Health Organization (WHO)is searching for a way to get vaccines to more people more easily.Last year, the WHO started a program called the mRNA vaccine technology center. The goal of the program is to develop and produce mRNA vaccines and treatments(for COVID-19 and other diseases) in developing countries from the technology used in developed countries highly successful COVID-19 vaccines.
More importantly，the cooperation (合作)between universities and companies based in developing countries is needed to realize the goal. On July 8th,the USA National Institutes of Health, where much of the research on mRNA vaccines was carried out, joined this program to help build vaccine technology centers in developing countries.
Besides the necessity of fairness, outbreaks would end sooner if every country could depend on its own defence. As Larry Brilliant，a scientist of the US National Institutes of Health who helps wipe out smallpox(天花)，told Nature，“Fairness is often thought of as a burden(负担)，but it is a strategic need in the battle against COVID-19.”
12. Why does the author mention Africa in paragraph 1
A. To lead in the topic.
B. To show the unfairness in vaccines.
C. To stress the importance of vaccines.
D. To say thanks to the help from developed countries.
13. Why did the WHO start the program
A. To make more people in developing countries get vaccines.
B. To build up a center to attract experts in developing vaccines
C. To get the technology used in successful COVID-19 vaccines,
D. To strengthen the cooperation between universities and companies.
14. What can we conclude from the last paragraph
A. Fairness is a burden, so it is not necessary.
B. We’ll win the battle sooner if every country has its defence.
C. Fairness is necessary because it can stop COVID-19 from breaking out.
D. Wiping out smallpox is a strategic need in the battle against COVID-19.
15. What is the most suitable title for the text
A. Why fairness is necessary
B. How did WHO start the program
C. How did scientists develop vaccines
D. Why is a vaccine center for developing countries a must
