Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】C

【4】E

【5】G

【解析】这是一篇议论性的文章，讲述的是一个人单独旅行的理由与好处。

【1】此空位于第一段末，第一段总领全文，所以此句应具有概括性的特点，以及承上启下的作用，快速浏览下文，观察到后文分成四个小点，讲的是单人旅行的理由。结合这些特点，故选D

【2】此空位于第二段结尾，也是第一小点的结尾，应具有总结此段内容的作用，前文讲的是如何结识新的人，这里结合与前文相关且具有总结性的特点，故选A。

【3】此空位于第二小点中，第二点的核心内容是：做自己想做的事。联系上下文，前文主要说了你曾经因离开旅行伙伴而无所是从吗，后文主要说你可以做自己想做的事不用过问其他人，这一空要做到联系文章主旨即单独旅行并且紧接着前后文与旅行伙伴有关的话题，使这一段的连接顺畅，故选C。

【4】此空位于第三小点小标题位置，很明显这一空要对接下来的这一段具有高度的概括性，作为标题更是要简洁明了。浏览这一段内容，主要讲了在单独旅行过程中，当你用勇气克服恐惧你就会感到充满力量，一次好的单独旅行会激励你在生活中尝试新事物。所以单独旅行是能使人振作精神的，故选E。

【5】此空位于第四小点中，联系上文：单独旅行时旅馆和餐厅的服务会更好，接下来就很有可能是解释为什么单独旅行时旅馆和餐厅的服务会更好，浏览所有选项，可知G最合适，故选G。
