Question

【题目】 We all want to go somewhere — somewhere that has been on our bucket list ages.【1】 We often picture the scenes like four cities in seven days, “must-see’s” in Tokyo，famous landmarks in Europe and so on. It’s as if the faster we’re checking things off our list, the more we are experiencing.

【2】 Traveler, the South Korean reality show, can perhaps give us some idea of what travel is like Traveler's travelers don't have a mission and there isn’t a competition for them to win.

Instead, it focuses on “depicting (描绘) the real experience of traveling by showing the processes of finding a place to stay or grabbing (拦下) a taxi”, according to The Korea Times. 【3】 It isn’t about getting or not getting somewhere as quickly as possible, but about simply being excited as you’re getting there or not getting there at all.

【4】 You may ignore the guidebook’s recommendation and ask local people where they prefer to eat and hang out. And you’ll be surprised by what a place has to offer when you’re not busy rushing around and checking things off your bucket list.

Travel is just like life. There is little fun in it if everything is predictable. 【5】 But as travel blog CheeseWeb puts it, as long as you keep an open mind, you’ll see that “everywhere is ‘somewhere”’.

A.It’s true that we all want to go “somewhere”.

B.But do you know what you are experiencing?

C.Why not stop rushing you off your feet and slow down?

D.This is actually the concept of what’s called “slow travel”.

E.So, we tend to squeeze as many sights into our trip as possible.

F.You may try to wander off the main road and take a back street instead.

G.However, concerning it’s probably not quantity that counts but quality.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“慢旅游”这种旅游方式的含义与意义。

【1】

由下两句“我们经常把场景想象成七天内的四个城市、东京的‘必看之地’、欧洲著名的地标建筑等等。就好像我们越快把事情从清单上划掉，我们经历的就越多。”可知，承接下文，E选项“所以，我们倾向于把尽可能多的景点挤进我们的旅行中”切题；该选项中的as many sights into our trip as possible对应下文中的picture the scenes like four cities in seven days, “must-see’s” in Tokyo, famous landmarks in Europe and so on。故选E项。

【2】

由下一句“韩国真人秀Traveler或许能让我们了解没有任务，也没有竞争来赢得比赛的旅行是怎么样的”可知，这才是有质量的旅行，承接下文，G选项“然而，重要的可能不是数量而是质量”切题；该选项中的counts but quality对应下文中的“有质量的旅行”内容。故选G项。

【3】

由下一句“它不是关于尽快到达或不到达某个地方，而是在你到达那里或根本没有到达那里时感到兴奋”可知，承接下文，D选项“这实际上就是所谓的‘慢旅游’的概念。”切题；下一句是对本空“慢旅游”的概念的解释。故选D项。

【4】

由下一句“你可以忽略旅游指南的建议，问问当地人喜欢在哪里吃饭和闲逛”可知，承接下文，F选项“你可以试着离开主干道，改走偏僻的街道”切题；该选项和下一句是并列表述，都是在举例说明怎么去慢旅游，本段的最后一句话是说这样的慢旅游会给人带来惊喜，也就是进一步说明慢旅游的好处。故选F项。

【5】

由下一句“但正如旅游博客CheeseWeb所说，只要你保持开放的心态，你就会发现“到处都是‘某处’”。”可知，承接下文，A选项“的确，我们都想去‘某个地方’”切题；该选项中的somewhere对应下文中的everywhere is ‘somewhere’，属于同词复现。故选A项。
