Here is a list of important things to remember,  so you know exactly what you need to do before you take off. What vaccines(疫苗) do I need? Go to your doctor for advice as soon as you know where you’re going traveling. They will know what vaccines you will need and will be able to advise you on when you need to have them. Remember,  some vaccines need to be given months ahead,  so make sure you book an appointment as early as possible. Do I need a visa(签证)?

This ability would allow us to witness historic wonders,  change decisions and see people from the past. We could right wrongs and stop wars from starting. The mysterious puzzle of time has kept people debating its nature for hundreds of years. Science fiction writers have turned it into imaginative stories. Some scientists have even attempted to explain it using math. This math tries to make the dream of time travel come true. The scientist Albert Einstein said that time and space are one thing. He called it “spacetime” Einstein said that there are three dimensions in space:  height,  width and depth. A scientist named Hermann Minkowski added time as a fourth dimension. Einstein introduced two ideas that have led to theories about the possibility of time travel. The first is relativity. The idea of relativity is that the force of gravity causes space to bend,  which causes time to twist. The second idea focuses on special relativity. The idea is that a traveler moving super-fast through flat spacetime will enter the future. Einstein considered time “relative” because it is measured based on where we are on Earth or in space. Stephen Hawking is a famous scientist. He believes that a time machine will never be built. If it were possible,  he thinks we would already know. If a time machine could be built,  how come no one from the future has invaded us? The first science fiction story with this theme is The Clock That Went Backward by Edward P. Mitchell,  which was published in 1881. Since then,  thousands of books,  films and television shows have explored the idea of time travel,  in which some tools such as phones,  watches,  photographs and old books take travelers backward and forward. Will time travel ever happen?  Who knows?  Most important is to keep your eyes open and have a sense of wonder. 【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕时光旅行是否会成为可能这一主题展开, 并列举了一些著名科学家对待这一问题的看法。5. What is the author’s purpose of writing the first paragraph? A. To show time and space are connected. B. To show people’s interest in time travel. C. To draw readers’ attention to time travel. D.

That’s because Chinese people spent nearly$258 billion in total on international travel last year. That’s more than twice the combined amount spent on international travel by people from the United States and Germany,  the next two biggest-spending nations. The Chinese are relative(相对的)newcomers when it comes to traveling beyond their nation’s borders and only a small percentage of them travel outside of China each year. Given the size of that nation’s population even that small percentage represents well over 100 million Chinese travelers to foreign destinations. Yet Chinese citizens flew,  on average,  just 65 miles last year versus(与……相对)the 227 miles flown on average by the US residents(居民),  the 285 miles flown on average by Germans,  the 271 miles flown on average by those from the United Kingdom,  and the 632 miles flown by the average Canadian last year. China’s high total spending on international travel and its low average number of miles flown on international travel may show that while only a small percentage of China’s residents actually travel outside their homeland,  and those who do spend a lot of money don’t go that far. But there are reasons for China’s low average of miles travel on international trips. A small percentage of Chinese now have enough money to travel internationally,  though the number of people who do travel outside of China is growing fast every year. Besides,  a large percentage of Chinese people traveling abroad stay close to home. However,  as more and more Chinese gain the financial ability to travel internationally and as Chinese become more and more interested in visiting destinations farther and farther away from home,  their spending on international travel and the average distances flown will both rise rapidly. 【文章大意】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了越来越多的中国人有了出国旅行的经济能力, 他们在出国旅行上的花费和平均飞行距离都将迅速增加。因此如果您希望将来在旅游行业工作, 则应该开始学习汉语。9. Why does the author suggest learning Chinese for the future work in travel industry? A. Being good at Chinese is a must for future work. B. Chinese is most commonly used in travel industry. C. Travel industry requires employees to learn Chinese. D. China is a big-spending nation in international travel. 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第一段和第二段第一句可知, 如果您希望将来在旅游行业工作, 您应该开始学习汉语。这是因为去年中国人在出国旅行上总共花费了将近2580亿美元。由此可知, 作者建议想到旅游业来工作的人学习汉语是因为中国在出国旅行方面是一个消费大国。故选D。10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. People from different countries have different preferred destinations. B. China has a relatively low average number of miles flown on travel. C. Chinese people are more willing to travel abroad compared with Canadians. D. People going on a journey around the world hate taking international planes. 【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第三段可知, 中国人去年平均只飞行了65英里, 而美国居民平均飞行了227英里; 德国人平均飞行了285英里; 英国人平均飞行了271英里; 加拿大人去年平均飞行了632英里。因此我们可以从第三段中推断出中国人的平均飞行里程数相对较低。故选B。11. What are many Chinese people who travel abroad likely to do? A. Try to save their money. B. Improve their ability to travel. C. Choose to stay close to home. D. Travel in America and Germany. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知, 出国旅行的中国人中有很大一部分人去的目的地离中国较近。即出国旅行的许多中国人可能会选择离中国较近的地方。故选C。12. What does the last paragraph say about the future of Chinese people’s traveling abroad? A. It’s bright.    B. It’s confusing. C. It’s hopeless.   D. It’s unclear. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段可知, 随着越来越多的中国人有能力出国旅行, 并且随着中国人对离家越来越远的目的地越来越感兴趣, 他们在国际旅行上的花费和平均飞行距离都将迅速增加。因此从最后一段可以看出中国人出国旅游的市场前景是光明的。故选A。Ⅱ. 语法填空 　　阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。(2021·杭州高二检测) 　　On a bench in Regen’s Park,  London,  on October 7,  1970,  a young man 1. 　　　　 (study) for MBA degree at London Business School met an Irish girl who first arrived in London.
