At 12, my father decided to take me on a trip to France.I had never been out of the country before, so I was very excited.My aunt, my father and I went around with my father showing us all the unbelievable sites in Paris.None of us spoke much French but we loved the city.
We had taken the subway all over the city and were congratulating (感到高兴) ourselves on our mastering what is honestly a brilliant subway design that is pretty easy to follow.We decided to visit Versailles by train.We chatted happily along the way until my father realized we were far into the French countryside and no one around spoke English.
We reached the end of the line and felt frightened when everyone finally left the train.An old man and his grandchild noticed us and came to help.He spoke no English, so in broken French we tried to explain.When he finally understood, this great man settled his grandson and showed us to the correct train and then boarded with us.
Later we knew the truth that there was a train transfer(转乘) and he didn't want us to miss it.This kind man rode a train for an hour and a half out of his way to make sure that three Americans got where they wanted to be. He refused to let us pay for his ticket.He did it all with a gentle smile and patted our hands gently at the stop.Then in his quiet way, he boarded the train to return the way he had come.
What impressed (给……留下深刻的好印象) me most was the man and his kindness during the amazing trip.Some Americans think the French are rude for some reason, but I always try to persuade them to change their minds with this very story.

Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life.“It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfortable zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries,with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging.This is what drives young people to travel alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year.He set up a website,The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures.He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier.“The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30?year?old man.Richardson describes traveling alone like “a shot in the arm”which “makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.” He said, “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm dealing with a difficult task.” “I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said,“Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了单独旅行的好处、挑战以及感受。

30.Traveling alone is challenging because ________.
A.you have to make things on your own
B.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
C.you can only depend on yourself whatever happens
D.it will finally build your character
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句“In foreign countries,with no one to help you read a map...it is challenging.”可知应选C。
31.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?
A.He started traveling alone at an early age.
B.He was once shot in the arm.
C.He used to work as a salesman.
D.His website inspires others a lot.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第四段中的前三句可知A项错误,而C项正确。根据第四段的第五句可知B项错误,文章中用的是比喻的修辞手法,并不是胳膊上真的中了一枪;D项文中未涉及。故答案为C。
D
(2019·南京外国语学校高一期中)
Flying to another country can sometimes take several days.But the designer of a futuristic jet (喷气式飞机) says his plane could take you around the world in your lunch break.
According to an article in The Sun, the plane, called the Antipode,could carry 10 people and use rocket boosters (火箭助推器) to go 12 km high.Then it could fly from London to New York in less than 20 minutes, or from New York to Shanghai in 24 minutes.A normal Boeing 747 has a top speed of 917 km/h.The fastest plane in the world right now is Air Force One.It carries the president of the United States and can reach 1,092 km/h.But the Antipode would be capable of reaching a crazy 25,750 km/h!
Canadian designer Charles Bombardier says his plane could be 10 times faster than the Concorde, which could fly at 2,180 km/h.The Concorde used to be the world's fastest passenger plane between 1976 and 2003.But the Concorde was very noisy and its nose got dangerously hot when it flew.A Concorde crashed in 2000, killing 114 people.No Concordes were flown again after 2003.
The Antipode design includes a special nose that stops it from overheating and having the same problems as the Concorde.New technology, recently tested by NASA, makes the Antipode the perfect shape and weight to fly fast and safely.
“It's always something that people would like—a transportation system that could take you from one place on the planet to the other side,” Mr. Bombardier told the BBC.
Don't try to buy a ticket for the plane yet, though.The design is just a concept and will need more research before it becomes a reality.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了飞机设计者们对一种新型飞机Antipode的设想。这种飞机不仅快速、高效,还避免了以往飞机的缺点。
32.What is the biggest difference between the Antipode and other normal planes?
A.It can fly much faster.
B.It can hold many more people.
C.It can fly much higher.
D.It can be much safer.
解析:选A 细节推理题。根据第二段的内容可知,Antipode比普通飞机飞得快得多,故选A。
33.What does the underlined word “It” refer to?
A.The Antipode. B.A Boeing 747.
C.Air Force One. D.The Concorde.
解析:选C 代词指代题。根据第二段中的“The fastest plane in the world right now is Air Force One.It carries the president of the United States and can reach 1,092 km/h.”可知,此处It指的是Air Force One,故选C。
34.What can we know about the Concorde?
A.It got dangerously hot when it flew.
B.It made loud noises when it was flying.
C.It used to be the world's biggest passenger plane.
D.It stopped flying after a Concorde crashed in 2000.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But the Concorde was very noisy and its nose got dangerously hot when it flew.”可知,Concorde飞行时有很大的噪音,故选B。
35.How does the author feel about the future use of Antipode?
A.It's funny. B.It's challenging.
C.It's dangerous. D.It's impossible.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The design is just a concept and will need more research before it becomes a reality.”可推知,未来要运营Antipode是很困难的,有挑战性。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
With the summer holiday just around the corner,it seems like everybody is busy planning their vacations.Here are some tips that can help you enjoy your holiday without emptying your pocket.
Travel off?season.
Go to your desired place while the demand is low and take advantage of huge discounts (折扣).During the special season, the hotel and flight prices increase quickly, and you'll likely spend more of your vacation time standing in line due to a great number of tourists. 36
37
Websites can help you find discount hotel rooms.Look for places that do not charge extra for children if they use the existing bedding.Stay with the locals.If you and your family are going to stay for a longer period, renting a small apartment is a good choice.
Eat like a local.
Why eat at big chain restaurants when you can experience something new? Planning your meals is another way to reduce your travel costs.During your family trip, try new food that the locals eat. 38 For smaller meals and snacks, avoid restaurants and try street food or other takeout.
Don't be afraid to bargain (讨价还价).
Tourist?heavy places are known for overcharging (索以高价) for just about everything.Clothes, goodies, souvenirs, etc.are very expensive at these places.For this reason, you shouldn't feel ashamed to ask for bargains. 39
Choose local transportation.
As a tourist, avoid taking taxis.They are expensive. 40 If you are planning to stay for a while, you can consider renting a car.Hiring a car is much easier than carrying your bags everywhere if you are moving around a lot.
A.Save money on hotels.
B.Surf the Internet before travelling.
C.Bargain hard to get the best price.
D.Therefore, avoid buying anything there.
E.So it's best to find out when the off?season starts.
F.Instead, take buses, railways, or subways,which are always cheaper.
G.This will not only save money, but offer you a new and different experience.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文,向读者提供了暑假期间如何享受旅游的同时又省钱的几条建议。
36.解析:选E 该段主要讲“要在淡季出游”。旺季出游时花费的时间和金钱较多,而且人又特别多,所以E项“最好弄清淡季什么时候开始”符合语境。
37.解析:选A 本段介绍了在网上预订打折酒店,与当地人住在一起等省钱的方法,故A项最能概括本段内容。
38.解析:选G 根据上文中的“Why eat at big chain restaurants when you can experience something new...travel costs.”可知,当你能够体验一些新的东西的时候,为什么要在大的连锁酒店吃呢?G项“这不仅能省钱,而且给你提供一种新的不同的体验”衔接上文。
39.解析:选C C项中的“Bargain hard”与小标题相照应,也与空前的“shouldn't feel ashamed to ask for bargains”相照应。故选C。
40.解析:选F 根据小标题“选择当地交通”可知,下文应与交通有关,因此F项符合语境。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。作者介绍了旅行给我们带来的益处以及可能遇到的困难。
61.解析:考查名词复数。place为可数名词且其前没有限定词,故用名词复数形式。
答案:places
62.解析:考查介词。make friends with sb.“和某人交朋友”,是固定短语。
答案:with
63.解析:考查副词。空处作状语修饰形容词relaxed,故用fully。
答案:fully
64.解析:考查非谓语动词。空处在句中作定语,且tasks与wait之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,故用动词?ing形式。
答案:waiting

答案:are climbing
68.解析:考查冠词。表示发烧、感冒时,前面要用不定冠词。catch a cold “感冒”。
答案:a
69.解析:考查词形转换。根据空前的an可知,此处应填名词单数形式injury。
答案:injury
70.解析:考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词things,并在从句中作主语,故用that/which。
答案:that/which

A
When you visit the Oahu Island (瓦胡岛) of Hawaii,you cannot miss the North Shore.
It is home to some of the world's best surfing (冲浪运动).
Surfing along the North Shore during the winter is wonderful enough to ensure some surfing competitions.They are the Triple Crown of Surfing, the Reef Hawaii Pro, O'Neill World Cup of Surfing, and the Billabong Pipeline Masters.
It is a filming location.
The North Shore is the main filming location for most of the ABC's TV series Lost.It has also been the setting for movies like Blue Crush, a surfer film, and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The TV show Hawaii Five?0 also filmed scenes along the North Shore.
It is the best place to watch sea turtles.
Shark's Cove is said to be the best place where turtles hang out.However, Laniakea Beach is the most famous place for visitors to take a photo of sea turtles.They like to come right onto the beach and sunbathe.In fact this place also goes by the name “Turtle Beach”.
People have been living there for a very long time.
For over 900 hundred years, people have lived along Oahu's North Shore.When Hawaiian settlements started expanding (扩张) north from the Big Island around 1,100 AD, some Hawaiian communities began to form on the north side of Oahu.They used the rich land to grow crops like sweet potatoes and so on.
As anyone who has seen the North Shore's beauty with his own eyes will tell you, it is no surprise that people have loved living along this coastline for centuries.

Ⅰ.七选五
(2018·安徽重点高中高一期末)
Everyone can benefit from better communication. 1 Of course, we know that isn't true, but this shouldn't stop you improving your communication skills.Here are a few tips to help you become a better communicator.
2
Verbal (口头的) language is only one part of the communication—body language is another.If you want to know how to tell if someone is lying, body language is the answer.Your body language tells other people what you aren't verbally saying, such as if you are anxious, confident, confused, angry or any other type of emotion or state of mind.If you become great at reading body language, it will help you become a better communicator.
Listen to others
Before you ever begin to speak, take a minute to see if anyone else has something to say. 3 Listening to others has many benefits, such as allowing you to learn new things or get information that you may later need.
Think before you speak
Your parents probably told you this when you were a child, but many people still do not take a moment to think about the words they are about to say. 4 There is a time and place for all words and tones of voice.
5 You will have to practice your communication skills before you can ever become an excellent communicator.
A.This is not an overnight thing.
B.Singing a song for them is good.
C.Become fluent in body language.
D.Don't try to make the conversation go your way.
E.You should decide what you want to get in a conversation before you choose your words.
F.If you are too anxious, you can't look for the right body language to use in communication.
G.In fact, if everybody were excellent communicators, the world would be a much better place.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲了几个方法提高交流技巧,帮助你成为更好的交流者。
1.解析:选G 由“Of course,we know that isn't true,but this shouldn't stop you improving your communication skills.”可知,前面空格处说的不正确,但这不能阻止你提高交流技巧,所以应选G。
2.解析:选C 由下文可知,此处应填标题,下面一段都在讲body language 是交流中的另一门技巧,故C选项正确。
3.解析:选D 由本段第一句可知,在你说话之前,先看看别人是否有话要说,先听别人说完再说,故D选项正确。
4.解析:选E 由本段第一句可知,或许你父母在你小的时候就告诉你说话之前先思考,但许多人仍然在他们说话之前没有花点时间思考,故E选项正确。
5.解析:选A 由本段最后一句可知,在你变成杰出的交谈者之前还需要练习你的谈话技术,所以前一句应该是变成一个好的交谈者并不是短时间的事,而是一个长期积累进步的过程,故A选项正确。
Ⅱ.完形填空

Then came a 14 .The Cardinals took the lead.In that one moment we 15 happiness,excitedly jumping up and down and experiencing a joy that I could 16 imagine happening on that bittersweet afternoon.The 17 of that day was replaced by enjoying an exciting baseball game.It was a wonderful feeling that made the day, the trip, and our life seem so 18 .And then he left.

It's great fun to explore new places, and it may be like an adventure, even when you know you're not the first to have been there.But to make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles, the following tips may be helpful.
?Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere.It'll be easier if you keep the map following the direction you're traveling in.Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn or you'll have to move to the back seat.
?Get a group of friends together and go exploring.You'll need a good map, a compass, a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for unexpected and dangerous situations.Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let him know what time you expect to be back.The purpose of the activity is not in getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up.
?See if your school or a club organizes orienteering (越野识途比赛) activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way.This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc.)in the fastest time, or simply as a spare?time activity.It enables you to be familiar with the use of maps and compasses and gain some practical skills.In some way, it's not only good fun, but also a great way to keep healthy.
No matter which way you choose, it's not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一些能够让我们在旅行时避免迷路的好方法。
1.Sitting beside the driver, you should ________.
A.direct the driver when necessary
B.look ahead to see where there's a gas station
C.move to the back seat if feeling uncomfortable

解析:选A 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn or you'll have to move to the back seat.”可知,当你坐在司机旁边的时候,你可以在必要的时候提前给司机警示,指导司机。故选A。
2.Why do you need to wait for the slower friends in the exploration?
A.To show them how fast you can go.
B.To avoid yourself or your friends getting lost.
C.To share the fun with them in exploration.
D.To tell them what's going on with the group members.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“The purpose of the activity is in not getting lost”可知,等走得慢的朋友是为了避免有人走失。故B正确。
3.Orienteering activities can ________.
A.make people work fast
B.help people stay healthy
C.help people organize other activities
D.make people get prepared for sports
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句中的“it's not only good fun,but also a great way to keep healthy”可知,越野识途比赛活动可以让我们保持健康。故选B。

B
People who like travelling have their reasons.They believe that travelling can help them expand their field of view, especially in the geographical and historical sense.They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities.But those who dislike travelling also have some reasons.
Travelling, in my opinion, does more good than harm.Most importantly, broadens (使扩大) our mind.We can get in touch with other civilizations (文明), cultures, customs and ideas.
Through history,most people travelled because of necessity (必要性)—not for pleasure.People travelled just in order to remain alive.They searched for food to eat or places to live in.They sometimes ran away from enemies.This is not to say that no one ever travelled just for the fun of it.In ancient times, for example, rich Romans travelled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals.Of course, some people decided to travel just out of curiosity (好奇心).They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon (地平线).Also business travel has been going on for centuries.Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures.
So,travelling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us.There is no doubt that we can get much from it.
