A couple in their 60s has travelled 12, 000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China—riding their bikes all the way. Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia.
Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn't fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m long ship.
“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you are going to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is unbelievable, ” Peter said.
At first Peter and Chris set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.
Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris, 64, said, “It was a wonderful experience, particularly wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way. ”

If you have lived in New York City for many years, like I have, the skyline becomes part of you and your daily life.
When I was invited to visit the recently completed Summit One Vanderbilt, New York's fourth highest tower, I wasn't expecting much. I felt like I'd seen it all and I thought that this observation deck (观测台) would be another space for a view of the city, but nothing else.
Let me tell you something: I have never seen one like this before. It sits on top of a building on 42nd street and Vanderbilt, right next to Grand Central Station. Once you have ascended to the top floor, you step into air, which makes you feel like being at 1,000 feet above ground level with its mirrored floors. Once you make your way throughout the space, you feel like New York is part of a body, and your sense of space is challenged by the reflections of the light. The reflections create endless possibilities for photos and videos, and the light changes throughout the day. I took out my camera and began to take photos, feeling a connection with the city that no other observatory has been able to give me.
Summit is something unique, an art work with architecture. It will be an observatory that will change with the city. I personally can't wait to take photos at sunset, or when winter arrives.
5.How did the author feel when invited to visit Summit One Vanderbilt
A.Curious. B.Happy.
C.Amazed. D.Uninterested.
6.What does the underlined word “ascended” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Risen. B.Turned.
C.Referred. D.Adapted.
7.What can be learned about Summit One Vanderbilt
A.It is the only tower in New York.
B.It lies far from Grand Central Station.
C.It provides a good place for taking photos.
D.It is exactly 1,000 feet high from the ground.
8.What's the purpose of the text
A.To stress a point.
B.To introduce a site.
C.To raise awareness.
D.To promote tourism.

I'm ashamed to say that, as the years have gone by, I haven't taken the time to walk around my neighborhood. Sure, I'm out and about all the time but always in the car to my way out of the neighborhood.
The main reason is that I don't love my neighborhood any more. I'm referring to the place, not the people. My street used to come to an end in a forest. We would walk the dogs in the forest that always had nice, seasonal flowers and shrubs (灌木) coming up all year round. Now it's gone and been replaced (取代) by a forest of high rise buildings.
Pretty down because of some annoying (烦人的) office work these days, I decided I just had to get out and walk today. It started at the building “forest”. I still felt pain in my heart from the sight and I missed those days of walking the dog and taking in the beauty of the trees, shrubs and flowers.
As I continued on, though, I came across this.
Some very artistic children created some lovely, colorful artwork and I couldn't help but think they must have been trying to make me and everyone else just feel better.It certainly worked on me. Thank you, thoughtful artists!
At one point, I saw a man walking across one of the wider, busier streets. I shouted, “I just wanted to say hi to someone!” He answered, looking very friendly and happy, smiling and waving (挥手).
As I approached (走近) the last couple of streets of my walk, the wind began to blow. There were dark clouds behind me so I decided to head home. Luckily, the rain didn't come down until I was resting on the sofa.
I was glad I went out.
1.Why did the author seldom walk around his neighborhood
A.He was a homebody.
B.He was too busy with his work.
C.He didn't like the environment.
D.He didn't get along with the people.
2.How did the author feel at the start of his walk
A.Sad. B.Angry.
C.Lonely. D.Surprised.
3.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A.Creating artwork.
B.What the children did.
C.Meeting famous artists.
D.How to cheer people up.
4.What happened during the author's walk

练习1 Section Ⅰ Listening and Speaking
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了一对60多岁的老夫妻从英国到中国, 骑行穿越了16个国家, 行程12 000英里。这对夫妻在旅程中看到了著名的长城, 也遭遇了摔倒的痛苦。但他们却很享受这次难忘的经历, 也很感谢在路上遇到的善良的陌生人。
1.答案与解析:A 细节理解题。第一段第二句提到“Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to ‘do something a bit different’.”Peter和Chris在“决定做一些与众不同的事”后, 就开始了一段漫长的旅行。由此可知, 这对夫妻长途旅行的目的是想尝试一些新的东西。
2.答案与解析:D 细节理解题。第二段最后一句提到“At the end of their journey, the special pair didn't fly home but instead choose to book a cabin inside a 400m long ship. ”在旅程结束的时候, 这对特殊的夫妇没有坐飞机回家, 而是在一艘400米长的船上订了一间舱房。由此可知, 这对夫妻是乘船回家的。
3.答案与解析:A 细节理解题。第四段第二句提到“They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped and broke his leg. ”他们在骑车去匈牙利的路上, Peter滑倒了并摔伤了他的腿。因此他们才推迟了旅程。
4.答案与解析:B 细节理解题。最后一段第一句提到“Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. ”Peter和Chris都认为整个旅程中最好的部分是一路上遇到的陌生人的善意, 很多人都邀请这对夫妻吃喝。由此可知, 他们觉得别人的善意和帮助是旅程中最好的。
B
【语篇解读】 本文介绍了纽约的第四高摩天大楼——范德比尔特摩天大楼。
5.答案与解析:D 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“当‘我’被邀请参观最近完工的纽约第四高塔——范德比尔特摩天大楼时,‘我’并没有抱太大期望。”可推知, “我”对此次被邀请参观不抱太大希望。所以“我”是兴趣不大。
6.答案与解析:A 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“you step into air, which makes you feel like being at 1,000 feet above ground level with its mirrored floors”(你踏入空中,这让你感觉像是在地面以上1 000英尺的镜面地板上)可推知,画线词所在句的意思为:一旦你到了顶楼的时候,所以画线词指“上升到”,故选A。
7.答案与解析:C 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“‘我’拿出相机,开始拍照,感觉到与这座城市的联系,是其他天文台无法给予‘我’的。”可知,在范德比尔特摩天大楼拍照是其他任何一个天文台不能比拟的,即此处是一个拍照的好地方。故选C。
8.答案与解析:B 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章从开始提及“我”被邀请去范德比尔特摩天大楼参观,当时“我”对此次参观并不抱有太大的期望,随后“我”亲自体验了范德比尔特摩天大楼,在那里拍照是其他任何地方不能给予的体验。所以本文的写作目的是介绍范德比尔特摩天大楼。故选B。
Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了如何选择合适的假期让你的家人团聚。
1.答案与解析:D 根据前句“With summer filled with school work, there is less time available for families to take vacations together.”(暑假学业繁忙,家庭一起度假的时间越来越少)和后句“You can get kids excited by packing them up for a fun filled weekend trip in winter or spring.”(在冬天或春天进行一次充满乐趣的周末旅行)可知,冬天和春天提供给他们机会。
2.答案与解析:F 根据前一句“There are plenty of choices, but one of the best choices is a place connected to the outdoors.”中的outdoors(户外)提示可知,去远足,看野生动物,或者和你的孩子在户外露营等这些活动都是户外的。
3.答案与解析:G 根据下文“You should also think about how you want the connection with your family to develop. Vacations are a chance to open up to one another.”(利用假期思考如何与你的家庭建立联系,彼此敞开心扉和展开有意义的对话)可知,假期不应该只是为了逃离工作或观光。
4.答案与解析:A 根据下文“One thing you don't want is your children not getting along well with each other.”(你不想看到的一件事是孩子们相处得不融洽)和“Family vacations can lead to a real turning point for family members providing a memorable experience that also makes everyone happier.”(家庭度假可以为家庭成员带来一个真正的转折点,提供一次难忘的经历,也让每个人都更快乐)可知,要让孩子们开心起来。
5.答案与解析:C 根据前一句“Family vacations can lead to a real turning point for family members providing a memorable experience that also makes everyone happier.”(家庭度假可以为家庭成员带来一个真正的转折点,提供一次难忘的经历,也让每个人都更快乐)可知,下次你计划你的旅行时,要相应地做计划。
