Please Don’t Be Afraid To Travel On Your Own

You want to travel. You make an unclear plan. 【1】___________ But either way, you’re leaving in six months time. You start doing research every single night.

Of course, as this will be your first ‘real’ travel experience, you naturally prefer to travel with other people. 【2】_________ But the first friend you ask, perhaps your closest friend, turns you down and so you move on to the next friend. 【3】________ The third friend, the fourth friend and even that guy that you don’t really like say no as well.

【4】__________You hope that one of your friends will change their mind and decide to join you. Maybe you decide to forget about your trip altogether, fully believing that you can only travel so far away from home with a friend or travel companion (同伴) by your side.

Don’t give up just yet. Here’s my advice to you. You may be on your own when you board that flight to Bangkok or Mexico City, but believe me, once you arrive, you’ll never actually be alone. That’s how travel works. Unless you stare at the ground and never talk to anyone, you’re going to meet people when you travel, lots and lots of people from all over the world. 【5】___________

A. Don’t give it up.

B. Maybe you’ll fly to Thailand or to Mexico.

C. Meeting new people is one of the worst things to do.

D. But they too, tell you they have no interest to join you at all.

E. They will be interested in meeting and hanging out with you.

F. So you start asking your friends to join you in your journey.

G. Maybe you decide to put off your trip for another six months.

【5】E

【解析】

大多数人渴望旅行却又苦于找不到同行者，本文作者鼓励我们大胆尝试独自外出旅行。

【1】B 上文提到“You make an unclear plan”，下文提到“无论如何，你将在六个月后动身”，此处选择B项“可能你想去泰国或者去墨西哥”符合上下文语境。

【2】F 上文提到“你很自然会宁愿和他人一起旅行”，此处选择F项“于是你开始请求朋友加入你的行程”紧承上文进行论述。

【3】D 上文提到你请求一起去的第一个有可能也是你最亲密的朋友拒绝了你的请求，于是你转向下一个朋友，此处选择D项“但是他们也告诉你他们根本没兴趣加入你的旅行”呼应上文。

【4】G 下文语境中提到你希望你的一个朋友会改变主意……，此处选择G项“可能你会做出推迟旅行计划的决定”引起下文的论述。

【5】E 上文语境中提到“…lots and lots of people from all over the world”，此处选择E项“这些人对于遇见你以及与你一起游玩非常感兴趣”符合语境。
