[解析]

（1）细节理解题。根据第一段中To her great surprise，Zhang Pingyu found the Queen's jewels guarded by special royal soldiers who on special occasions，still wore the four﹣hundred﹣year﹣old uniform of the time of Queen Elizabeth I.（令张平宇大为吃惊的是，她发现女王的珠宝由专门的皇家士兵看守，在特殊的场合，这些士兵仍然穿着400年前女王伊丽莎白一世时代的制服。）可知，张平宇最大的惊喜是守卫女王珠宝的士兵穿着400年前女王伊丽莎白一世时代的制服，故选C。
（2）细节理解题。根据第一段中Her first delight was going to the Tower（她的第一个乐趣是去看塔），第二段中There followed St Paul's Cathedral（接下来是圣保罗大教堂），Then just as she came out of the abbey，Pingyu heard the famous sound of the clock，Big Ben，ringing out the hour.（就在她走出修道院的时候，平宇听到了著名的大本钟报时的声音），以及第三段The second day the girl visited Greenwich（第二天，女孩参观了格林威治）可知，第一天张平宇参观了塔、圣保罗大教堂和大本钟，而格林威治是她第二天去参观的，故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Not only that，but he had worked in the famous reading room of the Library of the British Museum.Sadly the library had moved from its original place into another building and the old reading room was gone.But she was thrilled by so many wonderful treasures from different cultures displayed in the museum.When she saw many visitors enjoying looking at the beautiful old Chinese pots and other objects on show，she felt very proud of her country.（不仅如此，他还在大英博物馆图书馆的著名阅览室工作。遗憾的是，图书馆从原来的地方搬到了另一座建筑，旧阅览室也不见了。但她对博物馆里展示的来自不同文化的众多珍宝感到兴奋。当她看到许多游客在欣赏展出的漂亮的中国旧壶和其他物品时，她为自己的国家感到自豪。）可知，卡尔•马克思曾在大英博物馆图书馆的著名阅览室工作，后来图书馆搬走了，旧阅览室也不见了。由此推断，在伦敦大英博物馆游客看不到卡尔•马克思的阅览室了。故选B。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段The next day Pingyu was leaving London for Windsor Castle.（第二天，平宇要离开伦敦前往温莎城堡。）可推知，第二天，平宇会去温莎城堡。故选A。

213212. （2023•滨河中学•高一上期中） You've probably experienced this before：when returning from a round trip，the trip home felt shorter.What is the scientific basis for this？
   Some theories include the power of expectation.Especially for vacations，the anticipation of finally reaching your destination can make the experience of traveling there feel longer because you can't wait to get there.Additionally，if the trip to the location takes longer than expected，we may readjust our expectations of the length of the trip so that the trip back feelorter and thus more pleasant.
   Another theory is how humans take time to learn and become more familiar with new sights.When faced with new stimuli or experiences，we feel as if time is getting slower to allow more brain processing time.This contributes to why elder people often remark that time goes faster the more they age because being older often means fewer new experiences，so there is less need for the brain to interpret time more slowly to pay more attention to solving a problem.
   In the case of the "return trip effect，" after viewing the landmarks on the road while getting to the destination，it is easier to recognize these points on the way back.Having less sense of puzzle and being more certain of one's surroundings can make time feel faster.This is similar to how many activities can feel natural after learning the process.For example，when you first learn to ride a bike，you carefully strategize your speed and balance，but after a while of practicing，your mind is freer to wander off.
   This "return trip effect" is most notably noticed after reflecting on how long a trip to an unfamiliar location took.This explains why the "return trip effect" is usually associated with vacations and not daily commutes to work or school because by then，the sights are so familiar that humans can more accurately measure the time spent going to and back from a location.

（1）Why do elder people feel time flies？
A．They have fewer new stimuli to process.
B．They have low expectations for the future.
C．Their problem-solving ability declines.
D．Their brain tends to misinterpret time.
（2）What does the example of learning to ride a bike in paragraph 4 prove？
A．Practice makes perfect.
B．Familiarity speeds up time.
C．The journey of life is full of uncertainties.
D．Similar landmarks cause confusion with time.
（3）Which trip may feel the longest？
A．The trip to school.
B．The trip to a strange place.
C．The trip home from school.
D．The trip home from a strange place.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．How can we make a long trip relatively short？
B．What is the scientific basis for time travel？
C．How long can the "return trip effect" last？
D．Why does the "return trip effect" occur？

212980. （2023•长安区一中•高一上期中） The hardest thing about planning a big European vacation is actually narrowing down where to go—there are just so many amazing places.That's why we've put together what we think are the best cities in Europe.
   AMSTERDAM，NETHERLANDS
   Amsterdam is the kind of city that you can't help but fall in love with.It's the kind of place where you dream about moving and buying an apartment that overlooks （俯瞰） a peaceful river.It's relaxing and you get a sense that the locals have an amazing quality of free life.We love simply walking around the canals and exploring the city's neighborhoods.
   BERLIN，GERMANY
   Berlin is said to be "poor but charming" and we think that's a pretty good description.Actually，Berlin is becoming more expensive as its popularity grows，but it's still the top spot for Germany's artistic scene.Berlin isn't particularly pretty but it's an energetic city with cool people and cooler graffiti-covered （涂鸦） neighborhoods.
   LISBON，PORTUGAL
   Lisbon is a hot destination and I doubt it will be quickly moving up in the ranks of Europe's most visited cities.Lisbon is a popular coastal city that's famous for its unique buildings and charming café culture.It's also very friendly on the wallet when compared to other Western European cities—food and lodging are both priced reasonably and attractions are about average.
   FLORENCE，ITALY
   Florence may be touristy but that's no reason to ignore this birthplace of the Renaissance （文艺复兴）.If you do your research，you can find plenty of excellent Italian restaurants and world-class ice cream.And，of course，the city is beautiful and home to top museums so it's a dream for art and history lovers.

（1）Which city best suits people holidaying on the cheap？
A．BERLIN，GERMANY.
B．FLORENCE，ITALY.
C．LISBON，PORTUGAL
.D．AMSTERDAM，NETHERLANDS.
（2）What do BERLIN and FLORENCE have in common？

213459. （2023•周至六中•高二下期中） If you want to write a travel journal，here are some useful tips for you.
   Get in the habit of writing in your travel journal every day. （1）        You will regret this later when priceless memories are forgotten.You may promise yourself that you will go back and write about your experiences later，but that almost never happens. （2）        It doesn't have to be long，just on a regular basis.
   Use your "down time" for your travel journal. （3）        You can always write down a few lines in your travel journal when you are on trains，waiting for planes，or waiting in line.
   （4）        In your heading write down the date，where you were，who you were with，maybe even the weather and what you ate that day.These are the first details people usually forget.Years later when you read your journal you will know exactly what you were doing on that day.No matter how much time changes，the memories will come rushing back.
   Focus on writing about how you feel.Listing facts and figures is fine but that isn't why you travel.A long journey is a time for self-reflection.Being in a foreign environment is a special experience.Make a list of places you want to go next.Memories of these feelings die down quickly with time. （5）

A．Date your diary in your travel journal.
B．Be sure your travel journal is just like a book.
C．When you are on a busy journey，it is easy to forget to write.
D．Buy a travel journal that can be used for a long time.

203937. （2024•鄠邑二中•高一下期末）     The vast majority of Spain's trains will be free until the end of the year in a new program.People visiting the West European country can now whizz （飞速行驶） across it in the relative luxury of one of its trains for zero cost.As well as being much better for the environment than air travel，sitting on a train and watching the countryside slip by is the perfect way to get to know a country.
    Under Spain's new program，all short and medium train rides are free—with the right ticket—providing the perfect opportunity to see Catalonia，Andalucia and the Basque Country.Tourists can take advantage of the discounts，which have been brought in to help the population deal with the cost of living crisis，if they buy multi-journey tickets. "I'd like the people of Spain to know that I'm fully aware of the daily difficulties that most people have，" a senior official said. "I know salaries cover less and less and that it's difficult to get to the end of the month." The country's Ministry of Transport said the measure would help people get to work safely as fuel prices continue to rise sharply.
    Spain joins Germany in cutting the price of public transport，with the latter country launching a ticket costing €9 which gives a full month of travel from June until the end of August.Austria has started offering a climate ticket，which allows people to complete journeys for just €3.When it was first launched last year，the popularity of the ticket almost caused its website to crash.The UK government has not announced any plans to encourage the use of trains，despite the seriousness of the climate crisis and the damage petrol and diesel cars cause.Instead，the government cut fuel duty by 5% in March for 12 months，encouraging more people to get behind the wheel.

（1）What can be inferred about the program？
A.People still have doubt about it.
B.It is of benefit to the environment.
C.The trains in Spain are completely free now.
D.Spain is the only country in Europe to cut transport costs.
（2）What is the main purpose of introducing the program？
A.To lower fuel prices.
B.To relieve the stress of airline business.
C.To promote tourism and benefit people of Spain.
D.To show the government's concern for the public.
（3）What does the author think of the UK government's practice？
A.Unwise.
B.Admiring.
C.Perfect.
D.Praiseworthy.
（4）What is the main idea of the last paragraph？
A.The practices on public transport in some countries.
B.The economic benefits of the program.
C.The program's great benefits to health.
D.The popularity of the climate ticket.

204163. （2023•周至四中•高二下期末） Fairy Tale-Like Destinations You Can See in Real Life Zhangjiajie National Forest Park （China）
    Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is part of the larger protected Wulingyuan Scenic Area in China's Hunan province.The 3，000 towering sandstone pillars in this huge park are breathtaking.Some are more than 600 feet tall，and most have vegetation growing on their sides and summits.
    The Chocolate Hills（Philippines）
    There are around 1，776 hills covering a 20-square-mile area in the towns of Carmen，Batuan，and Sagbayan，each with a seemingly perfect conical shape.The hills range from 100 feet to almost 400 feet in height.The most widely accepted theory of their origin is that they consist of coral deposits（珊瑚沉积物） that were forced upward due to rainwater and erosion.
    Much of the year，the hills are covered with green grass，which increases their charming appearance.However，during the dry season，the grass turns deep brown，giving them their "chocolate"tag.
    Deadvlei（Namibia）
    Deadvlei，also spelled Dead Vlei，is a plain surrounded by red sand dunes in the Namib Desert.The site is so unique because trees once grew there，but shifting dunes and climate change killed the vegetation over time.The air was so dry that the trees never rotted，thus becoming skeletons.But they are not scary.These rare trees are estimated to be around 900 years old.The combination of tall red dunes，bright clay flats，and tree skeletons combine to create a fantastic atmosphere that inspires tourists to visit.
    Lake Hillier（Australia）
    Lake Hillier sits on Middle Island off the coast of Western Australia.Hillier is a small lake，less than 2，000 feet in length，but it grabs people's attention because of its incredible bright pink color.It is especially noticeable because it contrasts with the neighboring blue ocean and the surrounding green leaves.
    Why the lake is pink is not 100%clear，but the theory is that it's caused by the interaction between the salty water and a specific type of micro algae （微藻类） that grows well under these specific conditions.

（1）Of the following destinations，whose popularity is least related to color？
A．Deadvlei.
B．Lake Hillier.
C．The Chocolate Hills.
D．Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.
（2）What made tree skeletons in Deadvelei？
A．The sand dunes.
B．The dry air.
C．The clay flats.
D．The salty soil.
（3）What is the purpose of the text？
A．To analyze the formation of some scenic spots.
B．To explain the roles of color in fairy tales.
C．To introduce some fascinating scenic areas.

203776. （2024•铁一中学•高一上期末） A flood hit Yellowstone National Park on June 13，2022.The disaster was caused by a combination of unusually heavy rain and apid snow melt.The high and fast water flows destroyed bridges and swept away entire roadways，leaving communities and homes isolated（隔绝的）.Fortunately，the approximately 10，000 park visitors were safely evacuated.
   The town of Gardiner，along the Montana-Wyoming border，was particularly hard hit.The floodwaters left almost 900 people with no power or water for many days.Gardiner's economy，which heavily depends on the almost three-quarters of a million visitors who pass through the park's north gate annually，is likely to take a hit.The floodwaters severely damaged the main north entrance road to Yellowstone and could take years to rebuild.

   Established in 1872，Yellowstone is America's oldest national park.The 3，472-square-mile reserve spans three states and is home to a lot of unique wildlife.It is known for its natural beauty that includes mountains，rivers and lakes.The forces of fire and ice shaped the park over thousands of years.

204222. （2023•长安区一中•高二下期末）     A promotion （促销活动） offering 98 yuan domestic plane tickets is being advertised by Chinese online travel platform LY.COM.While such a low price sounds amazing，there is just one catch： the purchaser is not told where the flight is heading，nor when it will take off.
   The promotion has become a trending topic on Chinese social media as some people have been attempting to book them ahead of the upcoming May Day holiday.Labeled as a "destination blind box" on the site，tickets are purchased through a rather simple booking procedure，in which passengers provide their travel information，select a departure airport and then pay their 98 yuan.If the randomly chosen date and destination are unsuitable，users may ask for a refund，but once they "lock in" their tickets，there is no going back.
   "Destination blind box" is now a hot topic on China's online platforms. "I believe young people are a big target demographic （特定年龄段人口） for this promotion，because they not only enjoy the thrill of the unknown，but also like to show off their lives through these types of commercial activities.Like this one for instance，it doesn't matter if they finally go or not.Booking a ticket and posting about it on social media can still suggest that one has adventurous and life-loving qualities，" said Fan，a marketing expert who has worked with civil aviation clients.
   Many people not only shared the screenshots of tickets they drew，some even came up with a tutorial to teach the booking procedure under the free cancelling policy.However，some others claimed it is too rare to draw a ticket that is ideal. "If it wants to be a profitable activity，the release of the tickets must have been planned ahead and is not as random as it seems.It will not have popular airlines.The marketing campaign may also be aimed at the fast sale of some tickets from less popular airlines that were originally not that expensive.If they sell a large quantity of tickets，the company may still earn a profit even though the price is 98 yuan，" an expert in tourism suggested.

（1）Which of the following best explains "catch" underlined in paragraph 1？
A．Benefit.
B．Mistake.
C．Disadvantage.
D．Charm.
（2）What is paragraph 2 mainly about？
A．The origin of "destination blind box".
B．The purchase introduction to "destination blind box".
C．The original purpose of "destination blind box".
D．The popularity of "destination blind box".
（3）Why will "destination blind box" appeal to young people according to Fan？
A．It allows them to experience various adventures.
B．It satisfies their desire to travel around China.
C．It helps them save money on the cost of travel.
D．It accords with their lifestyle and attitudes.
（4）In which part of a newspaper can you find this article？

212619. （2025•西光中学•高一下期中）     Many travellers are familiar with the UNESCO's World Heritage List.However，less is known about the organization's List of World Heritage in Danger.It currently specifies 53 World Heritage sites under threat of "serious and specific dangers" due to factors such as climate change，armed conflict，and development pressures.The accelerated degeneration of these cultural treasures is a reality that should concern the world，since the younger generation may not have the opportunity to visit them.
    For this reason，insurance company Budget Direct，and NeoMam Studios，a creative studio based in the UK，have created a series of GIFs to restore World Heritage sites and demonstrate what these ruins would have looked like if they had been preserved.
    Drawing attention to sites at risk，the project aims to give everyone the opportunity to visit these sites virtually.It started with in-depth research around the sites on the List of World Heritage in Danger.Based on the results，the team made a selection according to two main criteria：First，they were man-made places.Second，they still had standing elements.Focusing on the selected sites，the team worked with architects Jelena Popovic and Keremcan Kirilmaz and industrial designer Erdem Batirbek to research and illustrate six of these legendary locations.
    In this series of GIFs，six sites are digitally restored to their former glory.They include Hatra in Iraq，Leptis Magna in Libya，Palmyra in Syria，Portobelo-San Lorenzo in Panama，Nan Madol in the Federated States of Micronesia as well as the Old City of Jerusalem and its Walls.
    Time does not stand still，and neither does technology.Thanks to these photorealistic images and electronic devices，we can travel，without leaving home，to those places that，whatever their future may be，will always be part of the collective memory.

（1）What does the underlined word "degeneration" in Paragraph 1 probably mean？
A．Improvement.
B．Increasing.
C．Adaptation.
D．Worsening.
（2）Why did the team develop the project？
A．The List of World Heritage in Danger is not well-known.
B．Natural and human forces are destroying World Heritage sites.
C．Young people may lose the chance to visit some World Heritage sites.
D．They wondered what some World Heritage sites originally looked like.
（3）What endangered World Heritage sites could be chosen for this project？
A．Natural sites that had standing elements.
B．Man-made sites that had standing elements.
C．Natural sites that were damaged severely.
D．Man-made sites that were destroyed completely.
（4）What does the author try to convey in the last paragraph？

202635. （2020•西安中学•四模） In the early days of sea travel，seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat and biscuits．Many of them died of scurvy （坏血病），a disease of the blood which causes swollen gums （牙龈），livid white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion．On one occasion，in 1535，an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew desperately ill．The men's lives were saved by Iroquois Indians who gave them vegetable leaves to eat．Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by some lack in the sailors' diet and Captain Cook，on his long voyages of discovery to Australia and New Zealand，established the fact that scurvy could be prevented by the supply of fresh fruit for the sailors．
   Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious disease if certain important elements are missing．These elements are called "vitamins"．Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them，A，B，C，D，and so on．Different diseases are associated with shortages of particular vitamins．Even a slight lack of Vitamin C，for example，the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables，is thought to increase significantly our susceptibility （敏感度） to colds and influenza．
   The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet，including a variety of fruit and green vegetables．It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet，say during extended periods of religious fasting （斋戒），or when trying to lose weight，that it is necessary to make special supply to make up for the missing vitamins．

（1）Scurvy is a disease that is caused by       ．
A．salted meat and biscuits
B．exhaustion
C．lack of some essential substances
D．need of fresh vegetables and fruits
（2）To avoid such disease as scurvy，it's better for us       ．
A．not to eat much salted meat
B．to supply our diet with various vitamin pills
C．to have more fresh fruit and vegetables
D．to develop a good dietary habit
（3）Based on the passage we can safely conclude that if our diet is not comprehensive enough，       ．
A．vitamin pills are of no use
B．nutritious food might be unhealthy
C．vegetable leaves can be a good treatment
D．religious fasting may help out a lot
（4）Which of the following sentences best expresses the main idea of the passage？
A．Shortages of Vitamin C may cause serious diseases．
B．Fresh fruit and green vegetables contain enough nutrition that is necessary for a healthy body．
C．Vitamins play a vitally important role in people's health．
D．A good mixed diet normally supplies sufficient vitamins for us．

203208. （2016•西安中学•二模） This is a great truth，one of the greatest truths．It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth，we transcend （超越） it．Once we truly know that life is difficult-once we truly understand and accept it-then life is no longer difficult．Because once it is accepted，the fact that life is difficult no longer matters．
Most do not fully see this truth．Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy．It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families，their class，or even their nation．
What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one．Problems，depending on their nature，cause us sadness，or loneliness or regret or anger or fear．These are uncomfortable feelings，often as painful as any kind of physical pain．And since life causes an endless series of problems，life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy．
Yet，it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning．Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure．When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit，we encourage the human ability to solve problems，just as in school we set problems for our children to solve．It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn．As Benjamin Franklin said，"Those things that hurt，instruct．"It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems．
（1）From the passage，it can be inferred that        ．
A．everybody has problems
B．we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of life
C．life is difficult because our problems bring us pain
D．people like to complain about their problems
（2）The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that        ．
A．most people feel life is easy
B．the writer feels life is easy
C．the writer likes to complain about his problems
D．most people complain about how hard their lives are
（3）According to the passage，we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to        ．
A．encourage them to learn
B．teach them to fear the pain of solving the problem
C．help them learn to deal with pain
D．teach them how to respect problems
（4）The saying from Benjamin Franklin"Those things that hurt，instruct．"suggests that        ．
A．we do not learn from experience
B．we do not learn when we are in pain
C．pain teaches us important lessons
D．pain cannot be avoided．

203478. （2015•师大附中•四模） In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition．Some value it highly，believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity，others say that competition is bad；that it sets one person against another；that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people．
   I have taught many children who held the belief that their self - worth relied （依赖） on how well they performed at tennis and other skills．For them，playing well and winning are often life - and - death affairs．In their single - minded pursuit （追求） of success，the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten．
   However，while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed，others take an opposite attitude．In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players，they strongly blame competition．Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society．Teaching these young people，I often observe in them a desire to fail．They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success．By not trying，they always have an excuse： "I may have lost，but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try．" What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost，that would mean a lot．Such a loss would be a measure of their worth．Clearly，this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves．Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self - respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others．Both are afraid of not being valued．Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve （缓解） can we discover a new meaning in competition．

（1）What does this passage mainly talk about？
A．Competition helps to set up self - respect．
B．Opinions about competition are different among people．
C．Competition is harmful to personal quality development．
D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition．
（2）Why do some people favor competition according to the passage？
A．It pushes society forward．
B．It builds up a sense of duty．
C．It improves personal abilities．
D．It encourages individual efforts．
（3）The underlined phrase "the most vocal" in Paragraph 3 means       ．
A．those who try their best to win
B．those who value competition most highly
C．those who are against competition most strongly
D．those who rely on others most for success
（4）Which point of view may the author agree to
A．Every effort should be paid back．
B．Competition should be encouraged．
C．Winning should be a life - and - death matter．
D．Fear of failure should be removed in competition．
