　　Rome can be expensive for travelers， which is why many choose to stay in a hostel （旅社）.
Yellow Hostel
　　If I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in Rome， it would be Yellow Hostel. It’s one of the best hostels in the city， and for good reason. It’s affordable， and it’s fun without being too noisy. As an added advantage， it’s close to the main train station.
Hostel Alessandro Palace
　　If you love social hostels， this is the best hostel for you in Rome. Hostel Alessandro Palace is fun. Staff members hold plenty of bar events for guests. There’s also an area on the rooftop for hanging out with other travelers during the summer.
Youth Station Hostel
　　If you’re looking for a clean and modern hostel， look no further than Youth Station. It offers beautiful furnishings （家具陳設(shè)）. There are plenty of other benefits， too： it doesn’t charge city tax； it has both air conditioning and a heater for the rooms； it also has free Wi-Fi in every room.
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes
　　Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10-minute walk from the central city station and it’s close to all of the city’s main attractions. The staff is friendly and helpful， who will offer you a map of the city when you arrive， and advice if you require some. However， you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.

　　They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon： on foot， on mules （騾子） or by air. We chose the first. Up early， my husband and I and our three children couldn’t wait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
　　As we set out， I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn’t help noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had heavy backpacks， water bottles， and hats， but as usual we were dressed. As the sun rose higher， Arizona’s famous heat seemed to roast us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back， with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back， our legs were like jelly.
　　The next day， after we’d had along rest and a good breakfast， we were ready for another view of the Canyon — by air. After our last walk， this would be the easiest thing in the world.
　　We called to each other excitedly as the plane circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed （翻轉(zhuǎn)） the plane around， pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted，“STOP， TAKE US BACK！” When we finally arrived back on land， once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.
　　As I said， there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules， but personally I’d suggest a fourth： buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic. That way， you can see the Canyon， without fear or tiredness.
24.What can we know from the second paragraph？（　　）
A.They made careful preparations before the trip.
B.The children were more excited than their parents.
C.The heat didn’t prevent them from finishing the walk.
D.Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.
25.What does the underlined sentence “our legs were like jelly” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？（　　）
A.We were tired. B.We were injured.
C.We were relaxed. D.We were energetic.
26.Why did the family hardly speak as they drove back？（　　）
A.Because the pilot almost hit the ground.
B.Because they got frightened on the plane.
C.Because they arrived back on land later than expected.
D.Because the plane only circled around the Grand Canyon once.
27.What can we infer from the last paragraph？（　　）
A.A good magazine about the Grand Canyon is more affordable.
B.Visiting the Grand Canyon on mules would be the best option.
C.The trip to the Grand Canyon does not necessarily suit everyone.
D.There can be more exciting ways to view the Grand Canyon in person.
C
　　Summer is always a busy travel season， but even at peak times like July， that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll see lots of hotels with No Vacancy （空房） signs. More and more travelers are choosing instead to stay in vacation rentals： decorated private houses， rooms， or apartments that only you and your party share for the period of your stay. Or you can get adventurous and book a cabin， a tree house， a houseboat， or even a castle.
　　The idea appeared in 2007， when Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia， the owners of a hotel， realizing that a San Francisco tech meeting would make hotel rooms in the area harder to come by， let travelers sleep on air mattresses （充氣床墊） in their apartment for a fee. They called it Air Bed and Breakfast， and the company — now known as Airbnb — is worth almost $100 billion today and has six million listings worldwide.
　　More space is a major attraction of this accommodation the average hotel room measures just 330 square feet， while the average vacation rental room tops 1，300. And in 20 of the largest US cities， average daily rates are comparable to （or slightly lower than） those of hotels.
　　If you’re willing to share your own digs while you’re away， Love Home Swap pairs you with like-minded travelers for stays in each other’s homes for a membership fee as low as $11 per month. If you’d like to list your home， check your local zoning laws， as some areas have strict rules on short-term rentals. In parts of Honolulu， a new law taking effect in October will up the minimum stay to 90 days.
28.What can we learn from Paragraph 1？（　　）
A.Vacation rentals have replaced hotels nowadays.
B.Travelers have more options of where to live now.
C.Hotels have no empty rooms during travel seasons.
D.Instead of staying in rentals， travelers choose private rooms.
29.What inspired Chesky and Gebbia to start vacation rentals？（　　）
A.The presence of the Airbnb. B.The requirement of travelers.
C.The shortage of hotel rooms. D.The popularity of air mattresses.
30.If you want to use Love Home Swap， you should 　　　　.（　　）
A.become its member first B.rent your house for free
C.list your house for at least 90 days D.find partners with the similar ideas
31.What’s the purpose of the passage？（　　）
A.To list the various rentals for travelers.
B.To urge hotels to take on more vacation rentals.
C.To compare two different ways to spend vacation.
D.To introduce a new trend on vacation accommodation.
D
　　Do you like travelling to other places， cities and countries？ Many people do. Tourism is a huge industry — it’s as large as or larger than the oil， food and car industries. It creates so many jobs that one in every ten people in the world works in tourism.
　　However， for many people and places， tourism is not a completely positive thing. Some places receive millions of tourists a year， which leads to problems for local people. When tour buses block roads， it’s hard for local people to get to work or school. Often， international companies open up， and small shops and restaurants close down. Another problem is accommodation — in Barcelona and New York， for example， many flats and houses are used as tourist accommodation， so homes for local people have become expensive and hard to find.
　　Tourism can have an effect on the environment as well. Natural areas are ruined to make space to build hotels and tourist facilities， and building them consumes a lot of energy and resources. Historic buildings are damaged， such as those in Venice by large cruise ships entering the city. These ships also do harm to animal and plant life. More tourism means more crowds， noise， rubbish and pollution.
　　Some governments have already taken action. In Barcelona and New York， there are now limits on short-term rental accommodation. The number of cruise ships entering Venice is limited now too. Importantly， individual tourists can help by choosing better ways of visiting places. For example， if tourists visit Venice on a cruise ship but they sleep and eat all their meals on the ship， does the local community in Venice really benefit from their visit？ If not， it could be better to choose a different form of tourism， one that benefits the city and local people more.
　　Despite some problems， if we can make tourism more sustainable （可持續(xù)的）， everyone can benefit from it， and people can continue to enjoy visiting these places in the future.
32.Why is it hard for New Yorkers to buy cheap houses？（　　）
A.Because tourists buy local flats and houses.
B.Because many houses are needed for travelers.
C.Because the government provides little land to build houses.
D.Because the houses international companies sell are expensive.
33.Why are cruise ships mentioned in Paragraph 3？（　　）
A.To stress plants and animals die from them.
B.To show tourism wastes energy and resources.
C.To explain why tourism is not environmentally friendly.
D.To suggest the necessity of preventing the development of tourism.
34.What does Paragraph 4 mainly stress about tourism？（　　）
A.The cruise ship is not a good choice for tourists.
B.Tourism should be developed in a sustainable way.
C.Local community in Venice shows no interest in tourism.
D.Governments have done extremely well in developing tourism.
35.What is the author’s attitude towards tourism？（　　）
A.Unclear. B.Disapproving.
C.Doubtful. D.Positive.

閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
　　My mother was the oldest child in a family of four children. At the age of ten， my mother was charged with all the household responsibilities while her mother went to work. At a time when most children focused on themselves and their needs， my mother looked after the other children， cooked， and cleaned. My aunts and uncle remember that while they were growing up my mother was consistent （始終如一的） and strict with them， with a smile on her face and a song in her heart.
　　After working for a couple of years， my mother married my father and started her own family. Her four children came every two years. In addition to working full-time， she managed to attend each child’s school and sporting events， and keep us all on the straight and narrow.
　　Having learned about her hard childhood and knowing that my father was really her “fifth and worst” child， I decided that when I completed graduate school I would take my mother on the first of what would become our annual mother-daughter trip. Since I landed a well-paid job， I told her to pick any place she wanted to go and I would make it happen. She had never been more than fifty miles from our home， so she was very excited.
　　For the first three years， we went to Bermuda， Arizona， and Charleston. However， during my fourth year after graduate school， I opened my own business， and I was very hard up. I didn’t want my mother to know， so I didn’t let on when she said she wanted to go to the Bahamas.
　　I searched for the least expensive way to make this trip happen and ended up with a “package” that included air tickets， food and hotel stays. Even now， when I think about that trip， I experience some discomfort. The old airplane was very tiny. We had to share the hotel room with local insects.
　　After a long flight and a terrible bus ride to our hotel， most passengers were tired and disappointed. However， my mother always kept a positive attitude.
注意：1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；

（Text 1）
M：Have you finished your homework， Jane？
W：Not yet. The temperature is so low that my hands are freezing.
（Text 2）
M：I thought that you would go to Jim’s wedding yesterday.
W：I was planning to， but my daughter Lucy wasn’t feeling well， so I stayed at home.
（Text 3）
W：Well， I’m calling about the Wildlife Protection Group I belong to. We’re looking for more people to join， especially men. And I thought you might be interested.
M：Oh. You know how much I love wildlife， but this is my last year in the middle school. I’m quite busy with my lessons.
（Text 4）
M：Is Mr Stephen in his room， please？ He has called to see me after the dinner.
W：If he is in， his key will be here. Yes， sir. Room 202. He is in his room.Would you like to ring up first， sir？
（Text 5）
M：Why don’t you and Ervin join us for dinner tonight？ The five of us haven’t gone out together for a long time.
W：Ervin says it’s always too noisy to enjoy the meal at nightclubs.
M：Shall we go somewhere quiet？
（Text 6）
M：Could you take this down to the accounting office for me， please？
W：Sure， Mr Stone. I was just on my way down to the shipping department which is on the 5th floor， anyway. The accounting office is just one floor above it， so it’s right on the way.
M：Great. Maybe when you get back， I could take you to the Thai restaurant you’re always telling me about.
（Text 7）
W：What did you think of the speech by Professor Green yesterday afternoon？
M：I thought it was long and boring. I left the lecture hall before the speech ended.
W：Where did you go then？
M：I went to the library and borrowed some books and then read some magazines in the reading room. Did you stay in the lecture hall all afternoon？
W：Yes. Another three professors gave speeches besides Mr Green.
M：How about their speeches？
W：I thought all the speeches were interesting and meaningful. I think I learned a lot from them. I really think you shouldn’t have left the lecture hall before the speeches ended.
（Text 8）
M：Hello. Could I speak to Mr Smith’s secretary， please？
W：Yes. It’s Mr Smith’s secretary speaking.
M：Oh， hello， this is Mr Green’s Service in London.
W：What can I do for you？
M：Well， my boss Mr Green is coming out to Tokyo in the first week of December and I want to check whether you know he is coming.
W：I did already know about it. He’s coming for the conference.
M：That’s right， and he would really like to take up Mr Smith’s offer to visit the factory.
W：When would it suit Mr Green？ The conference will be running from Tuesday to Thursday.
M：Er， well， either Monday or Friday would be good. Which day do you think would be better for Mr Smith？
W：Er， as far as he’s concerned， Monday will be fine.
M：Oh， that’s great.
（Text 9）
W：Mark is so popular. Everywhere I go， people know him. He must be a native of Chicago.
M：No， he’s been here for only one year. I’ve been in town twice as long as he has， and it seems I only have a handful of friends.
W：That’s amazing. Why is he so popular？
M：Well， it’s probably his personality. He’s funny， of course， but I think people like him because he is always willing to spend time with them and help others.
W：That would explain it. What about you？ Why are you having trouble keeping up with Mark？
M：I don’t know， but it’s probably because I’m the opposite of Mark. I’m always serious. My work is busy， too， so I don’t have a chance to meet many people.
W：Do you want me to throw a party to introduce you to some of my friends， John？
M：Jessica， I want to meet them， but I’m a little shy. Do you think I really need as many friends as Mark？
W：Maybe not， but don’t you wish you could spend more time with other people？
M：Sometimes. But I can always go online and chat with someone， so I don’t think I need to be so popular.
（Text 10）
M：Well， Monica， I’m sure you’ll enjoy working here. I’m the librarian. We’re open from half past eight in the morning until eight in the evening but you’re not expected to be here all that time. You start working at a quarter to nine and finish at a quarter past five， OK？ Now， students aren’t allowed to bring large bags into the library. But staff can bring their bags in and leave them in the office. You have an hour for lunch. But I don’t like staff eating in the library. Of course you can have a cup of coffee there while you’re working. If you bring sandwiches for lunch， there’s a common room downstairs where you can eat them.If you want to buy lunch， I’d recommend the dining room upstairs. There are cafés in the town center but it’s a bit of rush to get there and back in an hour though they’re cheap. OK. Any questions？
第二部分
語篇解讀：本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章主要介紹了旅游城市羅馬幾個熱門的旅社，它們有不同的風格供您選擇。
21.C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一句可知，旅客選擇住旅社是因為價格原因。
22.B　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Hostel Alessandro Palace部分的第一句可知，這個旅社最適合熱衷于社交的旅客。
23.C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes部分中的However， you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.可知，這個旅社的缺點是需要付費才能上網(wǎng)。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者一家的大峽谷游玩之旅，他們先選擇了徒步去游覽，結(jié)果非常疲憊，第二天又選擇了乘飛機游覽，結(jié)果受到了驚嚇。
24.D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，作者一家沒有想到這條路這么狹窄，在徒步的過程中他們要忍受高溫，腿很痛，孩子們都走不動路了。由此可知，光明天使小徑并不像他們想象的那么令人愉快。
25.A　句意理解題。根據(jù)畫線詞上文可知，作者一家忍受著高溫和腿痛之苦，孩子們甚至都走不動路了。由此推知，畫線句意思應(yīng)該是“我們非常累”。
26.B　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容可知，作者一家乘飛機游覽大峽谷的時候，飛行員翻轉(zhuǎn)飛機，假裝快要撞到地面，引發(fā)了大家的恐懼，所以回去的時候他們幾乎不說話。
27.C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知，作者以開玩笑的方式建議讀者不必親自去游覽大峽谷，而是看看就好，因為親自去很有可能會經(jīng)歷恐懼和疲勞。由此推知，大峽谷之旅不一定適合每個人。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。越來越多的旅行者選擇租住度假屋，文章主要介紹了這種獨家方式的起源以及吸引力所在。
28.B　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，關(guān)于住在哪里，旅行者現(xiàn)在有更多選擇。
29.C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，酒店房間短缺促使切斯基和格比亞開始度假租賃。
30.A　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段第一句可知，如果你想使用Love Home Swap，你應(yīng)該先成為其會員。
31.D　推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，越來越多的旅行者選擇租住度假屋，文章主要介紹了這種獨家方式的起源以及吸引力所在。由此可推知，這篇文章的目的是介紹度假住宿的新趨勢。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。旅游業(yè)不僅對當?shù)厝说纳钤斐衫_，也會帶來環(huán)境問題，但是好在一些政府已經(jīng)采取了有效措施，如果我們能使旅游業(yè)更具可持續(xù)性，每個人都可以從中受益。
32.B　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句可知，紐約人很難買到便宜的房子是因為游客需要很多房子。
33.C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段前兩句可知，第三段提到游輪是為了解釋為什么旅游業(yè)不環(huán)保。
34.D　段落大意題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知，第四段主要強調(diào)了各國政府在發(fā)展旅游業(yè)方面做得非常好。
35.D　觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知，作者對旅游業(yè)的態(tài)度是積極的。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了旅行不僅有趣，而且更加重要的幾點原因。
36.D　根據(jù)空前一句可知，旅行不僅有趣，而且現(xiàn)在比以往更重要。D項（它也給了我們新體驗，豐富了我們的知識和生活）與上文是遞進關(guān)系，符合語境。D項中的It指代上文的travelling。
37.E　上文說明旅行有助于探索新文化，并說明世界各地的文化不同。E項（如果你喜歡探索不同的文化，旅行不會讓你失望）承接上文，符合語境。
38.C　空前一句說明旅行可以幫助發(fā)現(xiàn)新菜肴。C項（沒有體驗當?shù)厥澄锏穆眯惺遣煌暾模┏薪由衔模险Z境。
39.A　下文說明旅行可以讓我們遇到興趣相投的人，與他們建立聯(lián)系。A項（旅行有助于結(jié)交新朋友）引出下文，符合語境。
40.G　上文說明旅游可以幫助展示新的自我，而大多數(shù)人不愿意走出舒適區(qū)。G項（但你應(yīng)該記住，當你改變自己時，新的生活就開始了）與上文形成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，符合語境。
第三部分
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章通過講述作者個人的旅行經(jīng)歷，闡述了假期的意義在于朋友和家人。無論他們是以什么形式出現(xiàn)，這些都給作者留下了深刻的記憶。
41.C　根據(jù)上文I am good at finding last minute flights that allowed me to reach my destinations affordably可知，作為一名背包客，作者擅長在最后一分鐘找到能讓自己負擔得起的到達目的地的航班，這個訣竅就是在假期的時候乘坐飛機出去度假放松。
42.B　根據(jù)下文I found it on the Internet： Mexico City可知，作者反復(fù)在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上尋找旅游地，故右手因為點擊網(wǎng)頁而感到酸痛。
43.A　根據(jù)下文and fly back on New Year’s Day， as there was no New Year’s Eve 　44　 to attend可知，作者選擇的是往返旅行。
44.D　根據(jù)上文no New Year’s Eve可知，新年前一天作者沒有派對要參加。
45.C　根據(jù)下文Each morning I woke to the best black coffee， which my host father affectionately called “gasolina”.可知，因為寄宿家庭上了年紀的男主人在每天早晨作者醒來時都會給他提供好喝的黑咖啡。由此可知，作者幸運地找到了寄宿家庭。
46.A　根據(jù)上文She’d show me the sites可知，寄宿家庭的女主人會指給作者看游客地圖上沒有的景點。
47.D　根據(jù)下文old cobblestones （鵝卵石） and brightly coloured buildings changed colour可知，古老的鵝卵石和色彩鮮艷的建筑在陽光照射下會變色。因此，作者簡直不敢相信這個小鎮(zhèn)如此美麗，也被小鎮(zhèn)深深吸引。
48.B　參見上題解析。
49.A　根據(jù)下文New Year was already upon us可知，作者希望能夠多待一會，可是新年即將到來，即不能停留時間過長。前后構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故用but。
50.C　根據(jù)下文I planned to celebrate the holiday alone可知，作者不想打擾他的寄宿家庭。
51.D　根據(jù)上文but可知，作者不想打擾寄宿家庭的老夫婦，打算一個人慶祝這個節(jié)日，但他們堅持要作者和他們一起慶祝。
52.C　此處whom指代上文的寄宿家庭，即表示作者認識寄宿家庭的這對夫婦只有一個星期。
53.A　根據(jù)上文Everyone in the family hugged me and wished me a happy new year.可知，寄宿家庭里的每個人都擁抱了作者，祝愿作者新年快樂，即讓作者感到舒服。
54.B　根據(jù)下文before returning to my room to get ready for my early flight可知，作者不得不在回房間準備早班飛機前說再見。
55.B　根據(jù)首段Fly out on the holiday itself.可知，通過這次經(jīng)歷，作者明白了乘坐航班外出旅行的意義就是飛出去度假結(jié)識他人和朋友。故此處表示這次經(jīng)歷提醒了作者假期的意義。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章為第一次到桂林旅游的游客提供了游玩建議。
56.to take　考查非謂語動詞。be advised to do sth意為“被建議做某事”，故填to take。
57.the　考查冠詞。空處表特指，可數(shù)名詞river前需加定冠詞the。
58.about　考查介詞。worry about意為“替……擔憂”，故填about。
59.getting　考查非謂語動詞。avoid doing sth避免做某事，故填getting。
60.choice　考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。根據(jù)空前的定冠詞the可知，此處需用名詞作表語，故填choice。
61.especially　考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處應(yīng)用副詞作狀語，故填especially。
62.who/that　考查定語從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空處引導(dǎo)限制性定語從句，先行詞people指人，在從句中作主語，故填who/that。
63.impressive　考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，此處要用形容詞與and后的pleasing共同充當定語，故填impressive。
64.is recommended　考查動詞的時態(tài)、語態(tài)和主謂一致。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空處為句子的謂語。陳述現(xiàn)階段所發(fā)生的事情要用一般現(xiàn)在時，主語Hiking與recommend之間為被動關(guān)系，應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)，主語為Hiking，謂語動詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式，故填is recommended。
65.more　考查形容詞的比較級。根據(jù)下文中的than可知，空處要用形容詞的比較級，故填more。
第四部分
第一節(jié)
Dear John，
Having received your email asking about my Spring Festival holiday plan， I’m more than delighted to share it with you.
To explore the splendid culture of China， I， together with some of my classmates， am planning a trip to Henan Province by high-speed train.Henan， known as “the Central Plains”， is one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization.We’ll visit two major cities in Henan， Luoyang and Kaifeng， both of which served as capital cities of several dynasties， boasting a rich historical heritage and many scenic attractions as well.
What about your arrangements for your vacation？
Yours，
Li Hua
第二節(jié)
　　To make matters worse， we had to stand in a long line under the hot sun to get our room key. Since there was no place to store our bags， we carried our things along with us in the line snaking towards the front desk. Just when I thought things could not get worse， the late afternoon rains common to the Bahamas blew in. We all got wet and almost lost our enjoyment in travelling. Finally， I was at the end of my patience.
　　When I was complaining about the sudden rain， my mother looked at the swimming pool with a bright light in her eyes. With a quick kiss on my face， my mother walked over to the swimming pool， took off her glasses， and jumped in fully clothed， shoes and all， shouting “Yahoo！” “This is a great way to cool down！” I thought to myself. I followed my mother into the swimming pool， but I was smart enough to take off my shoes before I ran over to the pool and jumped in next to her. Several other people joined us in the pool.

聽力原文：
（Text 1）
M：Have you finished your homework， Jane？
W：Not yet. The temperature is so low that my hands are freezing.
（Text 2）
M：I thought that you would go to Jim’s wedding yesterday.
W：I was planning to， but my daughter Lucy wasn’t feeling well， so I
stayed at home.
（Text 3）
W：Well， I’m calling about the Wildlife Protection Group I belong to.
We’re looking for more people to join， especially men. And I thought
you might be interested.
M：Oh. You know how much I love wildlife， but this is my last year in
the middle school. I’m quite busy with my lessons.
（Text 4）
M：Is Mr Stephen in his room， please？ He has called to see me after
the dinner.
W：If he is in， his key will be here. Yes， sir. Room 202. He is in his
room.Would you like to ring up first， sir？
（Text 5）
M：Why don’t you and Ervin join us for dinner tonight？ The five of us
haven’t gone out together for a long time.
W：Ervin says it’s always too noisy to enjoy the meal at nightclubs.
M：Shall we go somewhere quiet？
（Text 6）
M：Could you take this down to the accounting office for me， please？
W：Sure， Mr Stone. I was just on my way down to the shipping
department which is on the 5th floor， anyway. The accounting office is
just one floor above it， so it’s right on the way.
M：Great. Maybe when you get back， I could take you to the Thai
restaurant you’re always telling me about.
（Text 7）
W：What did you think of the speech by Professor Green yesterday
afternoon？
M：I thought it was long and boring. I left the lecture hall before the
speech ended.
W：Where did you go then？
M：I went to the library and borrowed some books and then read some
magazines in the reading room. Did you stay in the lecture hall all
afternoon？
W：Yes. Another three professors gave speeches besides Mr Green.
M：How about their speeches？
W：I thought all the speeches were interesting and meaningful. I think I
learned a lot from them. I really think you shouldn’t have left the lecture
hall before the speeches ended.
（Text 8）
M：Hello. Could I speak to Mr Smith’s secretary， please？
W：Yes. It’s Mr Smith’s secretary speaking.
M：Oh， hello， this is Mr Green’s Service in London.
W：What can I do for you？
M：Well， my boss Mr Green is coming out to Tokyo in the first week of
December and I want to check whether you know he is coming.
W：I did already know about it. He’s coming for the conference.
M：That’s right， and he would really like to take up Mr Smith’s offer
to visit the factory.
W：When would it suit Mr Green？ The conference will be running from
Tuesday to Thursday.
M：Er， well， either Monday or Friday would be good. Which day do
you think would be better for Mr Smith？
W：Er， as far as he’s concerned， Monday will be fine.
M：Oh， that’s great.
（Text 9）
W：Mark is so popular. Everywhere I go， people know him. He must
be a native of Chicago.
M：No， he’s been here for only one year. I’ve been in town twice as
long as he has， and it seems I only have a handful of friends.
W：That’s amazing. Why is he so popular？
M：Well， it’s probably his personality. He’s funny， of course， but
I think people like him because he is always willing to spend time with
them and help others.
W：That would explain it. What about you？ Why are you having trouble
keeping up with Mark？
M：I don’t know， but it’s probably because I’m the opposite of
Mark. I’m always serious. My work is busy， too， so I don’t have a
chance to meet many people.
W：Do you want me to throw a party to introduce you to some of my
friends， John？
M：Jessica， I want to meet them， but I’m a little shy. Do you think I
really need as many friends as Mark？
W：Maybe not， but don’t you wish you could spend more time with
other people？
M：Sometimes. But I can always go online and chat with someone， so I
don’t think I need to be so popular.
（Text 10）
M：Well， Monica， I’m sure you’ll enjoy working here. I’m the
librarian. We’re open from half past eight in the morning until eight in
the evening but you’re not expected to be here all that time. You start
working at a quarter to nine and finish at a quarter past five， OK？
Now， students aren’t allowed to bring large bags into the library. But
staff can bring their bags in and leave them in the office. You have an hour
for lunch. But I don’t like staff eating in the library. Of course you can
have a cup of coffee there while you’re working.
If you bring sandwiches for lunch， there’s a common room downstairs
where you can eat them.If you want to buy lunch， I’d recommend the
dining room upstairs. There are cafés in the town center but it’s a bit of
rush to get there and back in an hour though they’re cheap. OK. Any
questions？

　　閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳
選項。
A
　　Rome can be expensive for travelers， which is why many choose to
stay in a hostel （旅社）.
Yellow Hostel
　　If I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in
Rome， it would be Yellow Hostel. It’s one of the best hostels in the
city， and for good reason. It’s affordable， and it’s fun without being
too noisy. As an added advantage， it’s close to the main train station.
Hostel Alessandro Palace
　　If you love social hostels， this is the best hostel for you in Rome.
Hostel Alessandro Palace is fun. Staff members hold plenty of bar events
for guests. There’s also an area on the rooftop for hanging out with other
travelers during the summer.
Youth Station Hostel
　　If you’re looking for a clean and modern hostel， look no further
than Youth Station. It offers beautiful furnishings （家具陳設(shè)）. There
are plenty of other benefits， too： it doesn’t charge city tax； it has
both air conditioning and a heater for the rooms； it also has free Wi-Fi in
every room.
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes
　　Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10-minute walk from
the central city station and it’s close to all of the city’s main attractions.
The staff is friendly and helpful， who will offer you a map of the city
when you arrive， and advice if you require some. However， you need
to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.

21. What is the major concern of travelers who choose to stay in a
hostel？（　　）
A. Comfort. B. Safety.
C. Price. D. Location.
解析： 　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一句可知，旅客選擇住旅社
是因為價格原因。
22. Which hostel best suits people enjoying an active social life？
（　　）
A. Yellow Hostel.
B. Hostel Alessandro Palace.
C. Youth Station Hostel.
D. Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes.
解析： 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Hostel Alessandro Palace部分的第一
句可知，這個旅社最適合熱衷于社交的旅客。
23. What is the disadvantage of Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes？（　　）
A. It gets noisy at night.
B. Its staff is too talkative.
C. It charges for Wi-Fi.
D. It’s inconveniently located.
解析： 　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes部分中
的However， you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.可知，這個旅
社的缺點是需要付費才能上網(wǎng)。
B
　　They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon： on
foot， on mules （騾子） or by air. We chose the first. Up early， my
husband and I and our three children couldn’t wait to get started. We
decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
　　As we set out， I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I
couldn’t help noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had
heavy backpacks， water bottles， and hats， but as usual we were
dressed. As the sun rose higher， Arizona’s famous heat seemed to roast
us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go
back， with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we
finally got back， our legs were like jelly.
　　The next day， after we’d had along rest and a good breakfast， we
were ready for another view of the Canyon — by air. After our last walk，
this would be the easiest thing in the world.
　　We called to each other excitedly as the plane circled around the
Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed （翻
轉(zhuǎn)） the plane around， pretending he was going to hit the ground. I
shouted，“STOP， TAKE US BACK！” When we finally arrived back
on land， once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we
drove back.
　　As I said， there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never
tried the mules， but personally I’d suggest a fourth： buy yourself a
good magazine like National Geographic. That way， you can see the
Canyon， without fear or tiredness.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者一家的大峽谷游玩
之旅，他們先選擇了徒步去游覽，結(jié)果非常疲憊，第二天又選擇了
乘飛機游覽，結(jié)果受到了驚嚇。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者一家的大峽谷游玩
之旅，他們先選擇了徒步去游覽，結(jié)果非常疲憊，第二天又選擇了
乘飛機游覽，結(jié)果受到了驚嚇。
24. What can we know from the second paragraph？（　　）
A. They made careful preparations before the trip.
B. The children were more excited than their parents.
C. The heat didn’t prevent them from finishing the walk.
D. Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，作者一家沒有想
到這條路這么狹窄，在徒步的過程中他們要忍受高溫，腿很痛，
孩子們都走不動路了。由此可知，光明天使小徑并不像他們想象
的那么令人愉快。
25. What does the underlined sentence “our legs were like jelly” in
Paragraph 2 probably mean？（　　）
A. We were tired.
B. We were injured.
C. We were relaxed.
D. We were energetic.
解析： 　句意理解題。根據(jù)畫線詞上文可知，作者一家忍受著
高溫和腿痛之苦，孩子們甚至都走不動路了。由此推知，畫線句
意思應(yīng)該是“我們非常累”。
26. Why did the family hardly speak as they drove back？（　　）
A. Because the pilot almost hit the ground.
B. Because they got frightened on the plane.
C. Because they arrived back on land later than expected.
D. Because the plane only circled around the Grand Canyon once.
解析： 　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容可知，作者一家乘飛機
游覽大峽谷的時候，飛行員翻轉(zhuǎn)飛機，假裝快要撞到地面，引發(fā)
了大家的恐懼，所以回去的時候他們幾乎不說話。
27. What can we infer from the last paragraph？（　　）
A. A good magazine about the Grand Canyon is more affordable.
B. Visiting the Grand Canyon on mules would be the best option.
C. The trip to the Grand Canyon does not necessarily suit everyone.
D. There can be more exciting ways to view the Grand Canyon in person.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知，作者以開玩笑
的方式建議讀者不必親自去游覽大峽谷，而是看看就好，因為親
自去很有可能會經(jīng)歷恐懼和疲勞。由此推知，大峽谷之旅不一定
適合每個人。
C
　　Summer is always a busy travel season， but even at peak times like
July， that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll see lots of hotels with No
Vacancy （空房） signs. More and more travelers are choosing instead to
stay in vacation rentals： decorated private houses， rooms， or
apartments that only you and your party share for the period of your stay.
Or you can get adventurous and book a cabin， a tree house， a
houseboat， or even a castle.
　　The idea appeared in 2007， when Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia，
the owners of a hotel， realizing that a San Francisco tech meeting would
make hotel rooms in the area harder to come by， let travelers sleep on air
mattresses （充氣床墊） in their apartment for a fee. They called it Air
Bed and Breakfast， and the company — now known as Airbnb — is
worth almost $100 billion today and has six million listings worldwide.
　　More space is a major attraction of this accommodation the average
hotel room measures just 330 square feet， while the average vacation
rental room tops 1，300. And in 20 of the largest US cities， average
daily rates are comparable to （or slightly lower than） those of hotels.
　　If you’re willing to share your own digs while you’re away，
Love Home Swap pairs you with like-minded travelers for stays in each
other’s homes for a membership fee as low as $11 per month. If you’d
like to list your home， check your local zoning laws， as some areas
have strict rules on short-term rentals. In parts of Honolulu， a new law
taking effect in October will up the minimum stay to 90 days.

D
　　Do you like travelling to other places， cities and countries？ Many
people do. Tourism is a huge industry — it’s as large as or larger than the
oil， food and car industries. It creates so many jobs that one in every ten
people in the world works in tourism.
　　However， for many people and places， tourism is not a completely
positive thing. Some places receive millions of tourists a year， which
leads to problems for local people. When tour buses block roads， it’s
hard for local people to get to work or school. Often， international
companies open up， and small shops and restaurants close down.
Another problem is accommodation — in Barcelona and New York， for
example， many flats and houses are used as tourist accommodation， so
homes for local people have become expensive and hard to find.
　　Tourism can have an effect on the environment as well. Natural areas
are ruined to make space to build hotels and tourist facilities， and
building them consumes a lot of energy and resources. Historic buildings
are damaged， such as those in Venice by large cruise ships entering the
city. These ships also do harm to animal and plant life. More tourism
means more crowds， noise， rubbish and pollution.
　　Some governments have already taken action. In Barcelona and New
York， there are now limits on short-term rental accommodation. The
number of cruise ships entering Venice is limited now too. Importantly，
individual tourists can help by choosing better ways of visiting places. For
example， if tourists visit Venice on a cruise ship but they sleep and eat all
their meals on the ship， does the local community in Venice really benefit
from their visit？ If not， it could be better to choose a different form of
tourism， one that benefits the city and local people more.
　　Despite some problems， if we can make tourism more sustainable
（可持續(xù)的）， everyone can benefit from it， and people can continue
to enjoy visiting these places in the future.

about fun？ Actually， according to a recent report， travelling is more
than fun and even more important today than ever. 36.（　　） Here are

Travelling can help us in establishing new connections with people from
different parts of the world. While travelling， you will come across many
people whose interests match yours.
　　Travelling helps bring out a new self. Most people are unwilling to
step out of their comfort zone. 40.（　　） Travelling is suitable for you

time， you will meet all the challenges that come your way.

several dynasties， boasting a rich historical heritage and many scenic

What about your arrangements for your vacation？

第二節(jié)（滿分25分）
閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)
成一篇完整的短文。
　　My mother was the oldest child in a family of four children. At the
age of ten， my mother was charged with all the household responsibilities
while her mother went to work. At a time when most children focused on
themselves and their needs， my mother looked after the other children，
cooked， and cleaned. My aunts and uncle remember that while they were
growing up my mother was consistent （始終如一的） and strict with
them， with a smile on her face and a song in her heart.
　　After working for a couple of years， my mother married my father
and started her own family. Her four children came every two years. In
addition to working full-time， she managed to attend each child’s
school and sporting events， and keep us all on the straight and narrow.
　　Having learned about her hard childhood and knowing that my father
was really her “fifth and worst” child， I decided that when I completed
graduate school I would take my mother on the first of what would become
our annual mother-daughter trip. Since I landed a well-paid job， I told
her to pick any place she wanted to go and I would make it happen. She
had never been more than fifty miles from our home， so she was very
excited.
　　For the first three years， we went to Bermuda， Arizona， and
Charleston. However， during my fourth year after graduate school， I
opened my own business， and I was very hard up. I didn’t want my
mother to know， so I didn’t let on when she said she wanted to go to the
Bahamas.
　　I searched for the least expensive way to make this trip happen and
ended up with a “package” that included air tickets， food and hotel
stays. Even now， when I think about that trip， I experience some
discomfort. The old airplane was very tiny. We had to share the hotel
room with local insects.
　　After a long flight and a terrible bus ride to our hotel， most
passengers were tired and disappointed. However， my mother always
kept a positive attitude.
注意：1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2. 請按如下格式作答。
　　To make matters worse， we had to stand in a long line under the
hot sun to get our room
key. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　
　
　　When I was complaining about the sudden rain， my mother
looked at the swimming pool with a bright light in her eyes. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
參考范文：
　　To make matters worse， we had to stand in a long line under the hot
sun to get our room key. Since there was no place to store our bags， we
carried our things along with us in the line snaking towards the front desk.
Just when I thought things could not get worse， the late afternoon rains
common to the Bahamas blew in. We all got wet and almost lost our
enjoyment in travelling. Finally， I was at the end of my patience.
　　When I was complaining about the sudden rain， my mother looked
at the swimming pool with a bright light in her eyes. With a quick kiss on
my face， my mother walked over to the swimming pool， took off her
glasses， and jumped in fully clothed， shoes and all， shouting
“Yahoo！” “This is a great way to cool down！” I thought to myself.
I followed my mother into the swimming pool， but I was smart enough to
take off my shoes before I ran over to the pool and jumped in next to her.
Several other people joined us in the pool.
謝謝觀看！
