【题目】If anything can be said about recordbreaking globetrotter (环球旅行家) Graham Hughes, it's that— throughout his travels— he's always kept his feet firmly on the ground.
The 33yearold adventurer, from Liverpool, has become the first person to visit all 201 countries in the world without using a plane.
Hughes used buses, taxis, trains and his own two feet to travel 160,000 miles in exactly 1,426 days — all on a shoestring(资金微薄) of just $100 a week.
He spent four days “crossing open ocean in a leaky (漏的) boat” to reach Cape Verde on the North Atlantic, was jailed for a week in the Congo for being mistaken as a “spy”， and was arrested trying to “sneak (溜；偷偷地做) into” Russia.
And yesterday Graham Hughes trudged (长途跋涉) into Juba, the capital of South Sudan, to end the epic fouryear journey that began in his hometown of Liverpool on New Year's Day 2009.
“I love travel, and I guess my reason for doing it was that I wanted to see if this could be done, by one person traveling on a shoestring，” he told the Christian Science Monitor. “I think I also wanted to show that the world is not some big, scary place, but in fact it is full of people who want to help you even if you are a stranger.”
Guinness has now confirmed that Hughes, who filmed the expedition for a documentary and raised money for charity Water Aid, has achieved the world record.
“The main feeling today is just one of intense gratitude to every person around the world who helped me get here, by giving me a lift, letting me stay on their couch, or pointing me in the right direction，” Hughes added.
【1】Which of the following is NOT described Graham Hughes?
A. Globetrotter.
B. Adventurer.
C. The first person traveling around the world not using a plane.
D. Scientist.
【2】Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. When he traveled on the ocean, his boat was leaking water.
B. He was put into prison because of being considered a spy in the Congo.
C. He was caught in Russia because he stole something.
D. It was in South Sudan that he ended his epic fouryear journey.
【3】Why did Hughes make the world record that he had achieved into the film — the expedition for a documentary?
A. Because he wanted to be remembered by people all over the world.
B. Because he wanted to raise money for charity Water Aid.
C. Because he only wanted to record his experience.
D. Because he wanted to earn money.
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. When he traveled all over the world, he got a lot of help from different people.
B. He often sleeps on the coach.
C. He often points the direction for others.
D. He is grateful to the people who have helped him.
【答案】
【1】D
【2】C
【3】B
【4】A
【解析】文章介绍了环球旅行家——格雷厄姆·休斯。在他旅行的过程中，他从来都是坚定地双脚站在土地上。这位33岁的冒险家来自利物浦，成为了第一位不乘坐飞机游遍全世界201个国家和地区的人。
【1】D细节理解题。从第一段的“recordbreaking globetrotter”看出，A是正确的；从第二段的“The 33yearold adventurer”看出B是正确的；从第二段的“the first person to visit all 201 countries in the world without using a plane”看出C是正确的。故选D。

【题目】Before your child's final exam: and the graduation announcements, you face a significant task together: choosing the right college or university. There is no "one size fits all" approach to selecting a college—it's a very personal process for most teenagers. Consider a wide range of factors to help your child make the best possible choice.
Discuss with your child her post-high school choices, such as college, finding work or starting a business, or joining the army. If you determine together that college is the best choice for your child, talk about the importance of college, and her longer-term goals by going to college.
Talk to your child about what she thinks is important in a college experience and share your opinions as well. Identify the issues that will directly impact her college choice, such as her grades, test scores and family finances. Then make a list of the key criteria for her dream school, including factors such as the school's location, its size, the types of prograM:, the after school activities available and the type of financial aid available.
Prioritize the item: on your child's list, at least to the extent of sorting it into "must-haves," "highly desirable" and "nice-to-have" categories. Put these factors into an online search engine specifically designed to identify colleges and universities that best meet your criteria, such as that offered by CollegeBoard.org. Start with the most important criteria, then experiment with additional factors to narrow the search results to a number you can work with, such as 10 or 20 different schools.
Use the search results as a guide to further focus your college search. Research each school by reviewing its website, requesting information directly from the school and attending local presentations about the school.
【1】The underlined word "prioritize" in Paragraph 4 probably means "______".
A. list in order of importance B. write down
C. add to D. do research into
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A. It's better to decide the college for your child.
B. It's necessary to take your child's opinion into consideration.
C. There is a "one size fits all" way to select a college.
D. An online search engine is of great help to you.
【3】What's the author's purpose of writing the passage?
A. To argue B. To persuade
C. To introduce D. To amuse
【4】Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
