三、 阅读理解
21. For Canadians, backpacking Europe is a special ceremony signifying a new life stage. Unlike package tours, backpacking is a struggle, full of discovery and chance connections. It is about focusing on something different from our own lives and losing ourselves in a new world, if only for a moment.
Well, that's what backpacking Europe is supposed to do. That’s what it used to do before modern communications, social media, and commercial hostelling (旅社). Older Canadians would not recognize the Europe that they backpacked in the 1960s, 1970s and even the 1980s. Far from a rough adventure into foreign cultures, the European experience has been shattered in part by today's technology.
A few years ago, I took my then 60-year-old father on a backpacking trip across part of Europe and Turkey. As he is an experienced traveler and someone who possesses a strong sense of adventure, I decided that we'd travel on a budget, staying in hostel dorms. For him, backpacking through Europe in 1969 was about independence and struggle. But two things surprised him at the end of our journey. First was how technology-based backpacking had become: Young people were so directly connected to home that they were hardly away in any meaningful sense. Second, the lack of connections we made with locals. Instead of making us feel closer to a place, he found commercial hostelling actually made us more alienated (疏远的).
But there was some room for hope. While technology takes our attention away from the beauty and history before us, there were also ways in which it helped us to connect with our surroundings. Websites like Airbnb have made it easier to stay with enthusiastic locals. Couch Surfing helps organize meet-ups between locals and travelers. The online marketplace Dopios offers a chance to meet locals through enjoyable experiences like a personalized city tour.
Backpacking can never be the way it was for our parents’ generation. But doing a little study of history and culture before leaving, and bravely getting rid of any electronic devices while traveling, will help give young travelers a taste of the glory days.
32．The underlined word “shattered” in Paragraph 2 most probably means ________.
A. broadened  B. relived        C. ruined  D. acquired
33．After the recent backpacking trip in Europe, the author’s father finds ________.
A. backpackers connect less with locals than before
B. young people dislike getting in touch with their family
C. a hostel is a nice place for travelers to meet each other
D. backpacking in Europe becomes more difficult than before
34．What’s the author’s attitude towards technology?
A. Negative. B. Objective.
C. Uncertain. D. Uninterested.
35． The text mainly discusses the relationship between ________.
A. adventures and cultures
B. technology and traveling
C. young people and their family
D. Canadian travelers and Europeans
参考答案：
32．C
33．A
34．B
35．B
试题分析:本文介绍了欧洲背包旅游。
32．C 猜测词意题。根据Older Canadians would not recognize the Europe...Far from a rough adventure into foreign cultures和下一段“they were hardly away...the lack of mercial hostelling actually madeus more alienated (疏远的)”可知，欧洲之旅遭到了现代科技的破坏，科技使人们和家人之间的联系更加紧密，也使人们缺少了与当地人的联系，从而无法真正体验欧洲的风情，故选C。
33．A细节理解题。Young people were so directly connected to home...”排除B；旅馆是供游客居住的，排除C；根据第二段“before modern communications, social media, and commercial hostelling (旅社)”可知，随着现代通讯、社交媒体和商业旅馆的发展，欧洲之旅变得更容易了，排除D；根据第三段“the lack of connections we made with mercial hostelling actually made us more alienated (疏远的)”可知，商业旅馆的发展减少了游客与当地人的联系，故选A。
34．B主旨要义题。the European experience has been shattered in part by today's technology”和第四But there wassome room for hope. While technology takes our attention away from the beauty and history before us, there were also ways in which it helped us to connect with our surroundings.”可知，作者认为现代科技在一定程度上破坏了欧洲之旅，尽管这样，仍然有一些方法可以帮助我们与周围的环境产生联系，说明作者的态度是客观的，故选B。
35．B 主旨要义题。backpacking Europe is a special ceremony...backpacking is a struggle, full of discovery and chance connections”和第二段“the European experience has been shattered in part by today's technology”与第四段“While technology takes our attention away from the beauty and history before us”及第五段“and bravely getting rid of any electronic devices while traveling”可知，文章主要讲的是背包旅行和现代科技的关系，故选B。
22. Below is a selection about interesting hotels.
Tayka Hotel de Sal
Where: Tahua, Bolivia
How much: About $95 a night Ks5u
Why it’s cool: You’ve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? That’s something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt – including the beds (though you’ll sleep on regular mattresses（床垫）and blankets). The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake, which is the world’s biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste（糊）of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When there is big rain, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where: Vythiri, India
How much: About $240 a night
Why it’s cool: Taking a pulley（滑轮）-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. As you look out of your open window – there is no glass! – you watch monkey and birds in the rain forest canopy（罩棚）. Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. You don’t even have to come down for breakfast – the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
Where: Cottonwood, Idaho
How much: $92 a night
Why it’s cool: This doghouse isn’t just for the family pet. Sweet Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side. You can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps of the loft（阁楼）in Willy’s head, or hang out inside his nose. Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters, there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant（消防栓）outside.
Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where: Ayvali, Turkey
How much: Between $130 and $475 a night
Why it’s cool: This is caveman cool! Experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. But your stay will be much more modern. Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65·F in summer (Don’t worry – there is heat in winter.)

41. What is the similarity of the four hotels?
A. Being expensive. B. Being comfortable.
C. Being natural. D. Being unique.
42. What does the underlined words “Sweet Willy” refer to?
A. The name of a doghouse.
B. The name of the hotel owner.
C. The building of Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
D. The name of the hotel owner’s pet dog.
43. Which of the hotels gives you a feeling of living in the far past?
A. Tayka Hotel de Sal. B. Green Magic Nature Resort.
C. Dog Bark Park Inn B&B. D. Gamirasu Cave Hotel.
