A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time and in that case, audiobooks (有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
24. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit
A. Mastering reading skills. B. Getting a great book.
C. Finding a comfortable place. D. Getting reading started.
25. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text
A. They are time-saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They help brain develop. D. They offer more book choices.
26. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea
A. It leads your way to reading. B. It is cheap to get.
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. Methods of Killing Free Time B. Advantages of Using Audiobooks
C. Ways to Choose Educational Books D. Tips on Developing a Reading Habit
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些养成阅读习惯的方法。
【24题详解】

【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.(有声读物非常适合在你上班、洗碗或在健身房锻炼的路上填满你的大脑)”可推知，有声读物可以节约时间。故选A。

It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.( 重新开始阅读有点像开始画画。需要一些努力才能进入最佳状态，但一旦你开始，结果会是美丽而令人满意的)”可知，重读旧书可以它引导你开始阅读。故选A。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段第一句“But how to build a habit of reading (但是如何养成阅读的习惯呢？)”可知，本文主要介绍了养成阅读习惯的建议。故选D。
C
I didn’t know how to say no, and was afraid to tell people what I wanted. Instead, I got myself tangled (纠结的) in a web of obligations (义务), anxiety, and white lies.
The worst thing was that I didn’t even realize what I was doing. I thought I knew how to say “no”, but couldn’t remember the last time I had. Like a lot of people, I just wanted to be accepted, appreciated, loved, and that the only way to get those things was to put everyone else’s needs before my own.
I never seemed to have time for things I really wanted to do. I’d like to learn Spanish, write more fiction, and travel. These aren’t huge goals. And yet, my people-pleasing ways cut into my free time to stop these desires.
But recently, I decided I’d had enough. As an experiment, I began standing up for myself, even at the risk of alienating (使疏远) myself from everyone and having my entire life come crashing down around me. Several days ago, a good friend asked me to go for coffee at 5 pm. I was planning to go to the gym. So I said, “Sorry, I’ve got things I want to do tonight.” She said sincerely, “That’s fine. Maybe another time.” It was all so simple that I got surprised.
Saying “no” is so much easier. If someone asks me to do something I have zero interest in, I’m polite but honest. “I’m sorry. I don’t think that’s really for me.” The words slip out of my mouth faster than some other excuses.
Learning how to say “no” has added several extra hours to my days, days to my weeks, and to my years. I no longer have to give up my plans to help friends with their matters, or set aside a weekend for others. Saying “no” has set me free.
28 Why was the author afraid of saying “no”
A. She didn’t want to tell lies. B. She wanted to keep her hobby a secret.
C. She wanted to please every one. D. She was always willing to help others.
29. What was the bad point of being afraid to say “no” for the author
A. She was trusted no longer. B. She lost the chance to make friends.
C. She felt sad now and then. D. She had no time for her own hobbies.
30. How did the author’s friend feel when getting “no”
A. Natural. B. Painful. C. Angry. D. Worried.
31. Which of the following can best describe the author after she had learnt to say “no”
A. Lonely. B. Relaxed. C. Anxious. D. Lost.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者不敢对别人说“不”，内心很痛苦；但当她学会了说“不”时，感到很轻松。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I didn’t know how to say no, and was afraid to tell people what I wanted.(我不知道如何说“不”，也害怕告诉别人我想要什么)”和文章第二段“Like a lot of people, I just wanted to be accepted, appreciated, loved, and the only way to get those things was to put everyone else’s needs before my own.”（像很多人一样，我只想被接受、欣赏、爱，而获得这些东西的唯一方法就是把别人的需要放在我自己的需要之前。）可推知，作者之所以害怕说“不”是因为她想取悦每一个人。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The worst thing was that I didn’t even realize what I was doing.(最糟糕的是，我甚至没有意识到自己在做什么)”和第三段“I never seemed to have time for things I really wanted to do.(我似乎从来没有时间做我真正想做的事情)”可知，害怕说“不”的坏处是作者没有时间从事自己的爱好。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“So I said, “Sorry, I’ve got things I want to do tonight.” She said sincerely, “That’s fine. Maybe another time.” It was all so simple that I got surprised.(所以我说:“对不起，我今晚有想做的事情。”她真诚地说:“好吧。也许下次吧。”这一切都很简单，我很惊讶。)”可知，当她和她的朋友说“不”时，她的朋友回答很“自然”。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I no longer have to give up my plans to help friends with their matters, or set aside a weekend for others. Saying “no” has set me free.(我不再需要放弃帮助朋友解决问题的计划，或者为别人留出一个周末。说“不”让我获得了自由。)”可知，作者在学会说“不”之后的感觉是“放松”。故选B。

Travel allows us to experience the world. But as we travel, we are also leaving our footprint on every place we visit. This is why culturally immersive (沉浸的) travel is so important. Because the wrong kind of travel badly influences the world. One of the reasons we started this blog (博客) was to help others travel better and feel comfortable getting off the beaten path, communicating with locals, and taking you“Beyond the traditional Bucket list (愿望清单)”, if you will.
People who only get 2-weeks off per year are often just looking for an easy destination with a beach to relax on. This isn’t travel. This is a vacation. But “immersive Travel” or “Cultural Travel” is an entirely new type of trip. It is about experiencing and protecting the various traditions around the world. It’s about being open to new experiences and willing to step into another’s shoes. Cultural travel is jumping in with both feet and leaving your idea about what your trip should be behind you. It’s eating local dishes and sleeping in guesthouses. It’s building genuine connections with locals. It’s learning about the history of a country and leaving your trip with a greater understanding of the place you came to see and the people who live there.
Often times in today’s age, travelers will visit a country just to snap (拍照) some photos of the famous sights to post on the Internet or to drink the night away, or even just to relax on a tropical beach. But that kind of vacation can be harmful to the very communities you’re traveling to.
Beyond supporting the local communities and the protection of local customs and traditions, you’ll also experience some personal benefits through cultural travels. There’s simply no way to travel this way with a closed mind. You’ll get to know different cultures and understand them a lot better. You’ll also become less judgmental (评头论足的) of others the more you travel.
32. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph
A. To recommend not to travel.
B. To describe the importance of cultural travel.
C. To stress the harmful influence of travel.
D. To express his unique feelings about cultural travel.
33. According to the author, today’s travelers tend to ______.
A. build close connections with the locals during the travel
B. choose a tourist attraction for adventure and exploration
C. show more interest in the history of a travel destination
D. post the photos taken in the journey on the social media
34. What can be inferred about the culturally immersive travel
A. It is only concentrated on local people’s lifestyle.
B. Its travelers should be open-minded and understanding.
C. It is a specific way to make comments on other cultures.
D. Its major focus is protecting local traditions and customs.
35. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A travel brochure. B. A newspaper.
C. A blog post. D. A historic magazine.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种全新的旅行方式——沉浸式文化旅行。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Travel allows us to experience the world. But as we travel, we are also leaving our footprint on every place we visit. This is why culturally immersive (沉浸的) travel is so important. Because the wrong kind of travel badly influences the world.(旅行让我们体验世界。但当我们旅行时，我们也在我们去过的每一个地方留下了我们的足迹。这就是沉浸式文化旅行如此重要的原因。因为错误的旅行方式会严重影响世界。)”可知，作者描写第一段的目的是为了描述文化旅行的重要性。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Often times in today’s age, travelers will visit a country just to snap (拍照) some photos of the famous sights to post on the Internet or to drink the night away, or even just to relax on a tropical beach.(在当今时代，很多时候，旅行者去一个国家只是为了拍一些著名景点的照片上传到互联网上，或者是为了通宵喝酒，甚至只是为了在热带海滩上放松一下。)”可知，根据作者的说法，今天的旅行者倾向于在社交媒体上发布旅途中拍摄的照片。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“It’s about being open to new experiences and willing to step into another’s shoes.(这意味着你要对新体验持开放态度，愿意换位思考。)”可知，沉浸式文化旅行要求旅行者应该心胸开阔、善解人意。故选B。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“One of the reasons we started this blog (博客) was to help others travel better and feel comfortable getting off the beaten path, communicating with locals, and taking you “Beyond the traditional Bucket list (愿望清单)”, if you will.(我们创建这个博客的原因之一是帮助其他人更好地旅行，舒适地离开常规路线，与当地人交流，并带你“超越传统的遗愿清单”，如果你愿意的话。)”可知，这篇文章来自于一篇博客文章。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
You Are a Better Person Than You Think You Are
Maybe you haven’t achieved goals in a self-planned time. ____36____. But this doesn’t mean you are a bad person or a failure. You could indeed be a wonderful person. You could actually be a much better person than you believe you are. So, let’s examine the idea that you might be better than you think.
You show kindness
Being polite and kind is the mark of a good person. When you do this, you are treating others like you would want to be treated. ____37____. Even the smallest things do not go unnoticed and tell others you have a good heart.
You are a positive (积极的) person
Keeping an optimistic (乐观的) attitude is also what a good person often does. It is easy to become down with all the bad things going on in the world, but there’s another way to look at these things. When you’re actually better than you think, you will have the habit of looking on the bright side of every situation and seeing the best in everyone. ____38____.
____39____.
Being wise is not about being intelligent. It’s about learning from life experiences. Why does this make you a better person than you think Wisdom can be passed to others to help them avoid the same mistakes you made. You are a good person if you’ve collected wisdom and love to share lessons with others.
So, go easy on yourself. Appreciate (感恩) who you are. If there are things you need to change, that’s okay. ____40____. It’s about our attitude and our heart. If you took the time to read this, you are a better person than you think.
A. We all have problems

C. Respect others and their space
D. It’s just all about showing optimism
E. You are wise, and you share your wisdom
F. Maybe you have made many mistakes as well

根据上文提示“Maybe you haven’t achieved goals in a self-planned time.(也许你没有在自己计划的时间内实现目标。)”以及下文“But this doesn’t mean you are a bad person or a failure.(但这并不意味着你是一个坏人或失败者。)可知，每个人都有不完美的一面，但这并不意味着你是一个坏人或失败者；F选项“Maybe you have made many mistakes as well(也许你也犯了很多错误)”承接上文，继续列举人们还可能存在的不足之处；下文承接F选项指出尽管有这些不足，但是这并不意味着你是一个坏人或失败者；由此可知，F选项符合语境。故选F。
【37题详解】
根据小标题“You show kindness(你表现出善意)”以及上文“Being polite and kind is the mark of a good person. When you do this, you are treating others like you would want to be treated.(礼貌和善良是一个好人的标志。当你这样做的时候，你是在以你希望被对待的方式对待别人。)”可知当你礼貌善意地对待别人，这就说明你是个好人；下文“Even the smallest things do not go unnoticed and tell others you have a good heart. (即使是最小的事情也不会被忽视，这是你有一颗善良的心的特征。)”指出甚至是最小的事情也能展示你善良。G选项“This may include opening doors for others or picking up change for people in front of you at the checkout line(这可能包括为别人开门，或者在结账时为排在你前面的人拿零钱)”列举了生活中你所做的一些表明你很善良的一些事情，选项中的“This”指代上文的内容；由此可知，G选项符合语境。故选G。

【39题详解】
文章结构分析可知设空处是小标题。由下文“Being wise is not about being intelligent. It’s about learning from life experiences. Why does this make you a better person than you think Wisdom can be passed to others to help them avoid the same mistakes you made. You are a good person if you’ve collected wisdom and love to share lessons with others.(有智慧并不是聪明。它是关于从生活经历中学习。为什么这会让你成为一个比你认为的更好的人？智慧可以传递给他人，帮助他们避免你犯过的同样的错误。如果你收集智慧并喜欢与他人分享经验教训，你就是一个好人。)”可知，当你从生活经历中获得智慧，并把你学到的经验教训与别人分享时，你就是一个很好的人；由此可知，此段建议与别人分享自己的智慧；E选项“You are wise, and you share your wisdom.(你有智慧，你分享你的智慧)”符合本文主旨，适合作为小标题。故选E。
【40题详解】
上文“So, go easy on yourself. Appreciate (感恩) who you are. If there are things you need to change, that’s okay. (所以，对自己宽容一点。感恩现在的自己。如果你有需要改变的地方，没关系。)”可知，要自己宽容一点，接受自己的不完美，有需要改变的地方也是没关系的；A选项“We all have problems(我们都有问题)”承接上文，指出我们都会有些问题，符合语境。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过阐述友谊给青少年的带来的益处，论述了友谊对于青少年来说是非常重要的，应该鼓励年轻人多交朋友。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：他们支持同情心、关怀等的发展。由空前的the以及空后介词of可知设空处应填develop的名词形式在句中作宾语，development“发展”为不可数名词，符合句意。故填development。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：此外，青少年友谊可以帮助青少年度过困难时期。“____2____ (help) teens to spend difficult times”作介词in的宾语，设空处应填动词help的动名词形式helping。故填helping。
【58题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：有更多朋友的青少年会有一种更强烈的归属感，这对他们面对困难有好处。设空处在句中作定语修饰名词sense；由上文“We all know that having good friends makes us happier. Teenagers having good friendship have better mental health.”以及句中的“Teens with more friends”可知此句指有更多朋友的青少年拥有的归属感也会更强烈，设空处应填形容词strong的比较级stronger。故填stronger。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：有更多朋友的青少年会有一种更强烈的归属感，这对他们面对困难有好处。分析句子结构可知， “which is good for them ____4____ (face) difficult situations”为非限制性定语从句，为固定句型“主语be+adj.+for sb. to do sth.”，该空用动词face的不定式to face。故填to face。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意：一项针对澳大利亚108名高中生的研究发现，在经历了诸如考试不及格等压力事件后，友谊对青少年尤其有帮助。设空处修饰形容词helpful，应填形容词especial的副词形式especially作状语。故填especially。
【61题详解】
考查冠词。句意：一项针对澳大利亚108名高中生的研究发现，在经历了诸如考试不及格等压力事件后，友谊对青少年尤其有帮助。句中test“测验，测验”为可数名词，此处表泛指，设空处填不定冠词，空后词test的第一个音素是辅音音素，用不定冠词a。故填a。
【62题详解】
考查时态。句意：澳大利亚默多克大学和格里菲斯大学的研究人员对青少年进行了调查。设空处句中作谓语，根据下文“They found when they were with peers rather than adults they dealt better after a stressful event.”可知“调查”发生在过去，因此此句用一般过去时，设空处填动词survey的过去式surveyed。故填surveyed。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：与朋友在一起的青少年的悲伤和担心程度较低。句子分析可知，“____8____ were with friends”为限制性定语从句修饰先行词Teens，设空处引导从句，指代先行词Teens在从句中作主语，先行词指人，此定语从句用关系代词who/that引导。故填who/that。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意：这就是友谊的好处，所以应该鼓励年轻人多交朋友。结合上文可知此处指“友谊的好处”，设空处应填介词of表示“……的”，good points of friendships意为“友谊的好处”。故填of。
【65题详解】
考查语态。句意：这就是友谊的好处，所以应该鼓励年轻人多交朋友。设空处与空前的should构成此句谓语，句子主语young people和动词encourage之间是被动关系，因此此句为被动语态，空格前面是情态动词should，含有情态动词的被动语态结构为“情态动词+be done”，设空处应填be encouraged。故填be encouraged。

One afternoon after school, Mary and her brother, Keith, were eating at a cafe near their home. That afternoon, they had to share their table with another person. That person was a young lady in her twenties. After eating, she went to the restroom. Without realizing, she had left her cellphone on the table. Five minutes later, she came out and walked out of the cafe without looking back.
Mary saw the cellphone on the table. She quickly told Keith, “Keith, the girl left behind her cellphone.”Keith looked at the cellphone. It took his breath away. It was one of the latest models on the market. Keith had always wanted a cellphone. But his parents had told him, “You don’t need one. You can always use the house phone.” He stared at it for some minutes. Then, he said slowly, pausing on every word, “I want to take the cellphone.” Mary could not believe her ears. She only stared at her brother, “You can’t! What if the owner comes to look for it ”
After making the decision, Keith quickly got the cellphone and put it in his schoolbag. Then, he took Mary’s hand and led her out of the cafe quickly.
Once back home, Keith locked his room door with trembling (颤抖的) hands. Inside his room, he took out the piece of beauty. Oh, he liked it so much. He had his own cellphone. Soon, he was polishing it happily. But Mary told him, “Keith, you cannot keep the cellphone. What will you tell our father about this He will ask you how you got the cellphone.” Keith said quickly, “I will say a friend lent it to me.” Mary said, “Now you are lying too. Oh dear! When had Keith turned so dishonest ”
Then, Mary saw a house phone number on the cover of the cellphone. “This is the girl’s phone number. Why don’t we just call this number We will talk to her and ask her to come and take back her cellphone,” she was trying to talk some sense into him.

【答案】One possible version:
That night, Keith turned over in bed from time to time. He had difficulty sleeping, uncertain about what he should do. Of course, he liked the new cellphone. However, he was feeling sorry for the owner. When he thought how sad the young lady would be at the loss of her cellphone, he was full of guilt and shame. The next morning, after a long and restless night, he was determined to return the cellphone to the owner. After school, he told Mary, “I am going to phone the owner.”
Mary was very happy to hear that. Back home, they phoned the owner’s house phone. A girl answered the phone. Kevin asked, “Are you the owner of the cellphone I’m Keith. I have your cellphone. Can you come and get it ” The girl replied “Yes” excitedly, expressing her gratitude repeatedly. Ten minutes later, she was at the same cafe to meet Keith. Handing back the cellphone to her and seeing her smile happily, Keith realized that honesty was indeed the best policy.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一天下午，Mary和她的弟弟Keith放学后在咖啡馆吃饭时，同桌的一位年轻女士把手机落在了桌子上。面对最新型号手机的诱惑，Keith想把手机据为己有，Mary却认为应把手机物归原主。

A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time and in that case, audiobooks (有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
24. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit
A. Mastering reading skills. B. Getting a great book.
C. Finding a comfortable place. D. Getting reading started.
25. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text
A. They are time-saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They help brain develop. D. They offer more book choices.
26. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea
A. It leads your way to reading. B. It is cheap to get.
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. Methods of Killing Free Time B. Advantages of Using Audiobooks

I didn’t know how to say no, and was afraid to tell people what I wanted. Instead, I got myself tangled (纠结的) in a web of obligations (义务), anxiety, and white lies.
The worst thing was that I didn’t even realize what I was doing. I thought I knew how to say “no”, but couldn’t remember the last time I had. Like a lot of people, I just wanted to be accepted, appreciated, loved, and that the only way to get those things was to put everyone else’s needs before my own.
I never seemed to have time for things I really wanted to do. I’d like to learn Spanish write more fiction, and travel. These aren’t huge goals. And yet, my people-pleasing ways cut into my free time to stop these desires.
But recently, I decided I’d had enough. As an experiment, I began standing up for myself, even at the risk of alienating (使疏远) myself from everyone and having my entire life come crashing down around me. Several days ago, a good friend asked me to go for coffee at 5 pm. I was planning to go to the gym. So I said, “Sorry, I’ve got things I want to do tonight.” She said sincerely, “That’s fine. Maybe another time.” It was all so simple that I got surprised.
Saying “no” is so much easier. If someone asks me to do something I have zero interest in, I’m polite but honest. “I’m sorry. I don’t think that’s really for me.” The words slip out of my mouth faster than some other excuses.
Learning how to say “no” has added several extra hours to my days, days to my weeks, and to my years. I no longer have to give up my plans to help friends with their matters, or set aside a weekend for others. Saying “no” has set me free.
28. Why was the author afraid of saying “no”
A. She didn’t want to tell lies. B. She wanted to keep her hobby a secret.
C. She wanted to please every one. D. She was always willing to help others.
29. What was the bad point of being afraid to say “no” for the author
A. She was trusted no longer. B. She lost the chance to make friends.
C. She felt sad now and then. D. She had no time for her own hobbies.
30. How did the author’s friend feel when getting “no”
A. Natural. B. Painful. C. Angry. D. Worried.
31. Which of the following can best describe the author after she had learnt to say “no”
A. Lonely. B. Relaxed. C. Anxious. D. Lost.
D
Travel allows us to experience the world. But as we travel, we are also leaving our footprint on every place we visit. This is why culturally immersive (沉浸的) travel is so important. Because the wrong kind of travel badly influences the world. One of the reasons we started this blog (博客) was to help others travel better and feel comfortable getting off the beaten path, communicating with locals, and taking you“Beyond the traditional Bucket list (愿望清单)”, if you will.
People who only get 2-weeks off per year are often just looking for an easy destination with a beach to relax on. This isn’t travel. This is a vacation. But “immersive Travel” or “Cultural Travel” is an entirely new type of trip. It is about experiencing and protecting the various traditions around the world. It’s about being open to new experiences and willing to step into another’s shoes. Cultural travel is jumping in with both feet and leaving your idea about what your trip should be behind you. It’s eating local dishes and sleeping in guesthouses. It’s building genuine connections with locals. It’s learning about the history of a country and leaving your trip with a greater understanding of the place you came to see and the people who live there.
Often times in today’s age, travelers will visit a country just to snap (拍照) some photos of the famous sights to post on the Internet or to drink the night away, or even just to relax on a tropical beach. But that kind of vacation can be harmful to the very communities you’re traveling to.
Beyond supporting the local communities and the protection of local customs and traditions, you’ll also experience some personal benefits through cultural travels. There’s simply no way to travel this way with a closed mind. You’ll get to know different cultures and understand them a lot better. You’ll also become less judgmental (评头论足的) of others the more you travel.
32. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph
A. To recommend not to travel.
B. To describe the importance of cultural travel.
C. To stress the harmful influence of travel.
D. To express his unique feelings about cultural travel.
33. According to the author, today’s travelers tend to ______.
A. build close connections with the locals during the travel
B. choose a tourist attraction for adventure and exploration
C. show more interest in the history of a travel destination
D. post the photos taken in the journey on the social media
34. What can be inferred about the culturally immersive travel
A. It is only concentrated on local people’s lifestyle.
B. Its travelers should be open-minded and understanding.
C. It is a specific way to make comments on other cultures.
D. Its major focus is protecting local traditions and customs.
35. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A travel brochure. B. A newspaper.
C. A blog post. D. A historic magazine.

One afternoon after school, Mary and her brother, Keith, were eating at a cafe near their home. That afternoon, they had to share their table with another person. That person was a young lady in her twenties. After eating, she went to the restroom. Without realizing, she had left her cellphone on the table. Five minutes later, she came out and walked out of the cafe without looking back.
Mary saw the cellphone on the table. She quickly told Keith, “Keith, the girl left behind her cellphone.”Keith looked at the cellphone. It took his breath away. It was one of the latest models on the market. Keith had always wanted a cellphone. But his parents had told him, “You don’t need one. You can always use the house phone.” He stared at it for some minutes. Then, he said slowly, pausing on every word, “I want to take the cellphone.” Mary could not believe her ears. She only stared at her brother, “You can’t! What if the owner comes to look for it ”
After making the decision, Keith quickly got the cellphone and put it in his schoolbag. Then, he took Mary’s hand and led her out of the cafe quickly.
Once back home, Keith locked his room door with trembling (颤抖的) hands. Inside his room, he took out the piece of beauty. Oh, he liked it so much. He had his own cellphone. Soon, he was polishing it happily. But Mary told him, “Keith, you cannot keep the cellphone. What will you tell our father about this He will ask you how you got the cellphone.” Keith said quickly, “I will say a friend lent it to me.” Mary said, “Now you are lying too. Oh dear! When had Keith turned so dishonest ”
Then, Mary saw a house phone number on the cover of the cellphone. “This is the girl’s phone number. Why don’t we just call this number We will talk to her and ask her to come and take back her cellphone,” she was trying to talk some sense into him.
