【解析】 本文为说明文。本文主要介绍第一次出国旅行，推荐的最佳去处是英国。并介绍了去英国旅行时要做的准备。

【1】 考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据空后的If you don’t have a current passport, you’ll need to bring your pictures and some proof of your citizenship—a birth certificate, a certificate of naturalization, 可知，如果没有护照的话就要准备其它的证明。由此可知本段说的是出国旅行要有护照，分析选项，可知D项（You’ll need a passport and visa to visit England）符合题意，故选D项。

【2】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段的小标题为“Plan Your Trip”，计划好旅行。文中讲述了在冬季情况，下面可能会是谈的夏季，分析选项E（The summer brings in record—breaking numbers of tourists） 符合题意，故选E项。

【3】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。 分析空前内容可知要找到可负担的起的旅馆，分析选项可知G项与“能负担的起的住房”有关。分析G项（但他们通常提供负担得起的住房，以最小的乐趣）可知，G项符合题意，故选G项。

【4】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段是说要在英国转转，最常用的方法是公共汽车和铁路。及空后出现的pass，与选项F项有词的复现。分析F选If you decide to use the underground rail system, get a pass.如果你决定用地下铁路系统，要用一个通行证。符合题意，故选F项。

【5】考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本题是小标题，分析本段的内容可知，买一本旅游预算书，了解在英国该做什么，到哪旅行。分析选项可知，B项（ Find the Best Things to Do）找到该做的事情去做。分析选项可知B项正确。

该题型对学生的考察能力总体从两个方面来考察；第一，把握整篇文章的布局和逻辑层次关系。第二把握微观信息间关联性。（即空格前后句间关系。 该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）；过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。

这种题一般可从以下方面来做：

（1）看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。

（2）精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。如第1题通过关键词passport找出正确选项D项。第 3小题分析空前空后的内容可知本段说的是能负担的起的住房”有关，从而选中G项。

（3）看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。正确选项的特点：复现，包括同义反复，反义反复。如第4题根据pass与所选项中的词复现，代入句中验证正确。
