三、阅读理解

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

After two years in New York, I traveled to Australia where I had the opportunity to think about New York from very far away. Though there are parts in Sydney that are bustling like New York, there were beautiful parks and beaches that broke up the pace of Australias biggest cities. Going to Australia and finding complete happiness made me believe that through travel came a new understanding about myself. While I was there, I started to miss New York, not just a place where I went to school. The experience gave me a new idea of life and a deeper understanding of the importance of traveling.

Travel is any exploration of unknown places. All my fears about missing by moving to the city were removed by my travel experiences. Many times, exposure to photos in travel magazines and television creates imaginary ideas about places that might be unrecognizable to others. To what effect does imagination about the places the traveler goes to shape how he understands those places? Can one escape this subjectivity(主观性) and really come to know a foreign place? Surely, the natives of any given travel destination know their country and cities better than anyone else, but why is it that sometimes a traveler seems to see more about a place than the native? It seems that now our desires to drive fast cars, to be “on the road” and to collect frequent flyer miles tell us why we have the desire for travel in morden society. Furthermore, the presence of car-oriented places like parking garages, shopping malls, motels and drive-in restaurants on American highways proves the fact that people want to move. Is our love for these kinds of places a sign of our desire to be anomadicpeople? Are we now living in a new age of exploration and discovery?

21. By traveling to Sydney, the writer realized ______.

A. how important the life in New York was to her

A. it is harmful to view travel photos before a trip

C. imagination is useful to our understanding about a foreign place

D. the convenience for driving enables people to love travel

23. The underlined word“nomadic”probably means_________.

A. traveling from place to place

B. understanding about themselves

C. loving to try something interesting

D. wanting an exciting life

24. We can infer from the passage that _________.

A. the writer would rather stay in Sydney than in New York

B. the writer used to be afraid of getting lost in a city

C. the writer disagreed about creating imaginary ideas about places

D. the writer didnt think much of driving in travel

25. The main idea of the 2nd paragraph is that_________ .

For several years, the travel industry and the world in general have experienced globalization(全球化). The phrase “the world keeps getting smaller”is a common saying when talking about the ease of communicating with, doing business with, and traveling to other parts of the world. It is estimated that the student and youth travel industry continues to be one of the fastest growing parts in the travel industry.

In the age of globalization, student and youth travel will become a significant part in travel industry and the youth travelers nowadays have their own taste for tourist destination.

Traveling, as far as I am concerned, plays a positive role in teenagerspersonal growth, both intellectually and emotionally. As is well known, travel can enrich our knowledge and experience beyond ordinary classes and textbooks. In addition, it provides teenagers with good chances to develop their abilities and personalities, such as senses of good organization, independence, cooperation, environmental protection, etc.

Last summer vacation, I joined some of my classmates in traveling to Sanya, Hainan Province, where I was fascinated by its sea, beaches, tropical plants. Through visiting the Sea World, I knew more about sea creatures and realized the importance to protect them. When appreciating the beauty of the sea, I felt my mind seemed to be broadened, leaving all of the unpleasant experiences far behind. After the trip, I amazingly found I become more positive towards the hardships in my life, which benefits me a lot.
