【題目】 People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields(戰(zhàn)場) or other Historic remains (歷史遺址). Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. Most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money for the sun because they have so little of it. People of cities like London, Copenhagen (哥本哈根) and Amsterdam (阿姆斯特丹) spend much of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean(地中海) has always attracted(吸引) them. Every summer many people travel to Mediterranean resorts (度假勝地) and beaches for their vacations. They all come for the same reason: sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economics (經濟) of Mediterranean countries. Italy's 30,000 hotels are booked without a break every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else, 37 million tourists there yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourists than it can deal with. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. None of these, however, is ruining (毀滅) anyone's fun. Obviously (顯然地),they don' go there for clean water. They allow traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don't even mind the pollution No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline sill less beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo (奧斯陸).
【1】The writer seems to imply (暗示) that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that_______.
A.they want to see historic remains
B.they wish to escape from cold, dark and rainy days
C.they would like to take pictures in front of famous places
D.they are interested in different cultural and social customs
【2】According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists than the others?

B.every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist
C.every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country
D.every family in Spain is visited by a tourist every year

本文講述了人們旅行有很多原因。大多數歐洲游客都在尋找陽光充足的海灘躺下休息。每年夏天很多人去地中海度假勝地和海灘度假。西班牙漫長的沙灘海岸線吸引了比其他任何地方都多的游客,每年有3700萬游客,但有跡象表明,該地區(qū)接待的游客數量超出了它的承受能力。地中海已經是地球上污染最嚴重的海域之一。但是也給當地帶來了壞境污染,交通堵塞。
【1】細節(jié)理解題。A. they want to see historic remains他們想看看歷史遺跡;B. they wish to escape from cold, dark and rainy days他們希望逃避寒冷、黑暗和雨天;C. they would like to take pictures in front of famous places他們喜歡在著名的地方前面拍照;D. they are interested in different cultural and social customs他們對不同的文化和社會習俗感興趣;根據“ Most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on… because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. ”大多數歐洲游客都在尋找陽光充足的海灘躺下休息,他們希望逃避寒冷、黑暗和雨天。故選B。
【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據“ Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else, 37 million tourists there yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.”西班牙漫長的沙灘海岸線吸引了比其他任何地方都多的游客,每年有3700萬游客,或者說每一個生活在西班牙的人就有一個游客。故選D。
【3】詞句猜測題。A. all the 37 million people living in Spain are tourists所有生活在西班牙的3700萬人都是游客;B. every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist每個住在西班牙的人都要照顧一個游客;C. every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country每年到西班牙旅游的游客幾乎和那個國家的人口一樣多在西班牙;D. every family in Spain is visited by a tourist every year每一個家庭每年都有一位游客來訪;根據“ Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else, 37 million tourists there yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.”西班牙漫長的沙灘海岸線吸引了比其他任何地方都多的游客,每年有3700萬游客,所以此處是每年到西班牙旅游的游客幾乎和那個國家的人口一樣多在西班牙,故選C。
【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them.Every summer, more than 25million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason:sun!可知游客來旅游主要是為了享受陽光,A、B、D中提到的東西游客都可以忍受,但是不能沒有陽光,所以雨天會破壞游客的樂趣。故選C。
