Affordable Beach Vacation in Corfu
Corfu, an island off the coast of Greece, offers visitors sunkissed shores with clear water and lots of beaches.
Finding the Perfect Beach
Our first pick is Sidari Beach. It’s a blue flag beach perfect for couples looking for a more private feel, as it’s far from bigger tourist destinations. Issos Beach makes for the perfect place for watching the sunset. Dassia Bay has a bit more water sports. Paleokastritsa is an amazing West Coast village with six beaches on offer, including Rovinia Beach.
Getting around Corfu
Corfu offers bike rentals and bus service as a cheaper alternative (替代) to taxis. The best time to visit Corfu is during the “shoulder season” in April/May. The weather isn’t as warm as the high seasons but it remains perfect. It is not crowded in this period, but you still need to book ahead of schedule as Corfu stays popular throughout the year.
Eating Out For Less
There are a lot of well-priced restaurants but street food is also a big winner. Some popular choices are Souvlakia and Pita Gyros. There are also many cheeses special to Greece, including Tirokafteri and Ladotyri. Corfu also has many unbelievable desserts (甜食). Stazei Meli is a tourist favourite to give them a try.
1. Which place is probably the best choice for couples
A. Sidari Beach. B. Dassia Bay.
C. Issos Beach. D. Rovinia Beach.
2. What are tourists required to do to visit Corfu

Leaving everything behind to go after true happiness takes courage, and Sophie Matterson has enough to go around. The 3l-year-old enjoyed a good life in Brisbane, Australia, with a job in the TV and film industry, but it didn’t make her heart sing. That’s why she decided to try a different path. Now she’s trekking (跋涉) across the continent with five camels (骆驼) — and is the happiest she’s ever been!
In 2016, Sophie changed jobs and ended up somewhere she never expected: milking camels on a farm in Queensland.
“What I wasn’t anticipating was how much I would end up falling in love with these animals,” she wrote. “What was only going to be a six-month break from my ‘real job’ turned into five years of running after camels around Australia and other parts of the world.”
After taking tourists on camel treks for a while, Sophie decided to have an adventure of her own. She planned out a 5,000-kilometer trip from Shark Bay to Byron Bay before catching and training five wild camels in January 2019. Then she was finally ready to explore her country with Mac, Delilah, Clayton, Jude, and Charlie!
As one might imagine, the trip can be lonely at times, but Sophie’s camels make surprisingly good companions.
“It’s quite lovely and relaxing camping with camels,” she said. Best of all, she can see great views!
Sophie hopes to arrive in Byron Bay in the next nine months. In the meantime, she’ll be enjoying every second with her camel friends.
4. Why did Sophie give up her job in the TV and film industry
A. It was of no interest to her.
B. It took much courage to carry on.
C. She needed to move to another country fora new job.
D She was unwilling to leave everything behind to go for it.
5. What does the underlined word “anticipating” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. believing. B. discovering. C. trying. D. expecting.
6. Where did Sophie get the camels
A. From a farm. B. From some friends.
C. From the wild. D. From some tourists.
7. Which word can best describe Sophie
A. thoughtful. B. Adventurous. C. responsible. D. confident.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了31岁的女孩索菲为了追求梦想，放弃自己在电视和电影行业的稳定工作，尝试在澳大利亚和世界其他地方和骆驼一起旅行的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第二三句“The 3l-year-old enjoyed a good life in Brisbane, Australia, with a job in the TV and film industry, but it didn’t make her heart sing. That’s why she decided to try a different path.”（这位31岁的女孩在澳大利亚布里斯班过着美好的生活，在电视和电影行业找到了一份工作，但这并没有让她开心。这就是她决定尝试另一条路的原因。），可知索菲放弃了她在电视和电影行业的工作的原因是：她对此不感兴趣。故选A。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“What I wasn’t anticipating was how much I would end up falling in love with these animals,” she wrote. “What was only going to be a six-month break from my ‘real job’ turned into five years of running after camels around Australia and other parts of the world.”（“我没有预料到的是，我最终会爱上这些动物，”她写道。“仅仅是我的‘真正工作’的六个月的休息时间，就变成了在澳大利亚和世界其他地方追赶骆驼的五年。”），可以推断划线词 anticipating的意思是：expecting（预料）。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二三句“She planned out a 5,000-kilometer trip from Shark Bay to Byron Bay before catching and training five wild camels in January 2019. Then she was finally ready to explore her country with Mac, Delilah, Clayton, Jude, and Charlie!”（她计划从鲨鱼湾到拜伦湾进行5000公里的旅行，然后在2019年1月捕获并训练五头野生骆驼。然后，她终于准备好与麦克、黛利拉、克莱顿、裘德和查理一起探索她的国家！），可知索菲从野外得到的骆驼。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Sophie hopes to arrive in Byron Bay in the next nine months. In the meantime, she’ll be enjoying every second with her camel friends.”（索菲希望在接下来的九个月内到达拜伦湾。在此期间，她将和她的骆驼朋友们享受每一秒。），结合文章大意，索菲放弃自己的稳定工作，选择在澳大利亚和世界其他地方带骆驼一起旅行，可知索菲是有冒险精神的。故选B。
【点睛】记叙文阅读要求考生弄清楚文章的主旨大意，对细节题进行准确定位，推理判断要做到有理有据，词义猜测题根据上下文进行合理判断，切记主观臆断。

20-year-old Colen Nulgit and his girlfriend, Shantelle Johnson, had gone out for a daytime fishing trip at Keep River National Park in Australia last week when their car became stuck in some mud (淤泥).
When they were unable to free the car from the mud, they began to worry. The park’s waterways are usually full of crocodiles, and the couple had already seen plenty of crocodile tracks running through the mud. Not only that, they had only brought a few bottles of water and little food for the trip.
Nulgit and Johnson tried to fall asleep in their car, but as the sun set and the nearby water levels began to rise, they feared that the high tide (潮水) would bring the crocodiles closer to their car. The young couple then moved towards dry land and hoped for rescue. They even used a piece of wood to write the word “HELP” into the mud along with a line pointed towards their car.
Thankfully, the couple had been careful to tell Nulgit’s parents where they were going and when they expected to be home; so when they failed to return the very same night, his worried mother called the police. Rescuers began searching the area by airplane the next morning. Upon hearing the sound of the plane, the couple started a fire so the rescuers would see the smoke. As the plane drew closer to the smoke, rescuers successfully located the couple after they caught sight of the “HELP” sign pointing towards the car.
Nulgit and Johnson were very thankful for the rescue. They now plan on putting together a set of emergency survival tools for the car.

细节理解题。根据文章第一段“20-year-old Colen Nulgit and his girlfriend, Shantelle Johnson, had gone out for a daytime fishing trip at Keep River National Park in Australia last week when their car became stuck in some mud (淤泥).(上周，20岁的Colen Nulgit和他的女朋友Shantelle Johnson在澳大利亚Keep河国家公园进行白天钓鱼之旅时，他们的车被困在淤泥里。)”和第二段“When they were unable to free the car from the mud, they began to worry. The park’s waterways are usually full of crocodiles, and the couple had already seen plenty of crocodile tracks running through the mud.( 当他们无法把汽车从泥里解救出来时，他们开始担心起来。公园的水道里通常都是鳄鱼，他们俩已经看到了很多鳄鱼在泥泞中奔跑的痕迹。)”可知，Colen Nulgit和他的女朋友Shantelle Johnson被困在了一个危险的有鳄鱼出没的地方。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“They even used a piece of wood to write the word “HELP” into the mud along with a line pointed towards their car.(他们甚至用一块木头在泥里写了“救命”两个字，还用一条线指着他们的车。)”可知，他们用一块木头在泥里写了“救命”两个字，还用一条线指着他们的车。故选D。

【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Nulgit and Johnson tried to fall asleep in their car, but as the sun set and the nearby water levels began to rise, they feared that the high tide (潮水) would bring the crocodiles closer to their car.

They even used a piece of wood to write the word “HELP” into the mud along with a line pointed towards their car.( Nulgit和Johnson试图在车里睡着，但随着太阳落山，附近的水位开始上升，他们担心涨潮会把鳄鱼带到他们的车附近。他们俩随后向陆地移动，希望能得到救援。他们甚至用一块木头在泥里写了“救命”两个字，还用一条线指着他们的车。)”以及第四段“Rescuers began searching the area by airplane the next morning. Upon hearing the sound of the plane, the couple started a fire so the rescuers would see the smoke. As the plane drew closer to the smoke, rescuers successfully located the couple after they caught sight of the “HELP” sign pointing towards the car.(救援人员第二天早上开始乘飞机搜索该地区。听到飞机的声音后，他们俩点燃了火，这样救援人员就能看到烟雾。随着飞机越来越靠近浓烟，救援人员在看到指向汽车的“救命”标志后，成功地找到了这两个人。)”可知，Nulgit 和Johnson头脑非常清醒，听到救援人员的声音后，也开始积极自救。故选A。
D
Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.
Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.
But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him, not even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics, somebody stole his shoes. Thorpe improvised (临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.
He still went on to win two gold medals—winning each event he competed in except for one, the javelin (标枪). The javelin was the only event he didn’t win, probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time, he didn’t know that he could throw it with a running start. He threw it standing still and was placed second.
At the Olympics，he also took part in the decathlon (十项全能运动). He finished first in two events, third in four events, and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a dominating force that couldn’t be stopped and just kept on going.
I think Paul Dughi said it best, “It’s hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn’t matter what kind he wore.”
12. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean
A. The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.
B. Thorpe’s success was no guarantee of a better life.
C. Thorpe’s career brought him both gains and losses.
D. Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.
13. Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot
A. To prevent the foot from injury. B. To make the shoe fit the foot.
C. To stop the shoe from being stolen. D. To show his problem-solving skills.
14. What most likely led to Thorpe’s failure to win the javelin
A. Loss of his own sports shoes. B. A casual attitude towards the event.
C. Lack of experience in the event. D. A shortage of talent for the event.
15. Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe
A. Loyal and enthusiastic. B. Genuine and creative.
C. Tough and strong-minded. D. Selfless and good-tempered.
【答案】12 D 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了运动员Jim Thorpe的个人经历以及成就。
【12题详解】
句意猜测题。根据划线词上文“Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known during his lifetime, yet”第二段“Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.(索普是来自俄克拉荷马州的美国印第安人，他在年轻时通过艰苦的劳动培养了非凡的运动技能。也是在他年轻的时候，他学会了忍受种族偏见带来的苦难。很多人会说他的童年并不容易。他在贫困中长大，9岁时他的双胞胎兄弟去世了，几年后他失去了双亲)”可知，第一段提到吉姆·索普是有史以来最伟大的运动员之一。他有惊人的运动能力，一生都很出名，but表示转折，结合第二段叙述了索普所经历的苦难，说明尽管他取得了成功，但是也遭受了许多苦难。故划线句意思是“索普尽管取得了成功，但却遭受了许多苦难”。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Thorpe improvised (临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.(索普临时从垃圾堆里找鞋子。这双鞋有两种不同的尺码。他在一只脚上多穿了一双袜子，以使脚均衡)”可知，索普一只脚上穿的袜子更多是为了使鞋合脚。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The javelin was the only event he didn’t win, probably because he had never competed in that event before.(标枪是他唯一没有获胜的项目，可能是因为他以前从未参加过这个项目的比赛)”可知，缺乏经验最有可能导致索普未能赢得标枪比赛。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him, not even stolen shoes.(但这并没有阻止他做自己喜欢的事情，追求自己的梦想。似乎没有什么能阻止他，即使是鞋子被偷)”以及倒数第二段“He was undoubtedly a dominating force that couldn’t be stopped and just kept on going.(毫无疑问，他是一股不可阻挡的统治力量，他一直在前进)”可推知，吉姆·索普坚韧且意志坚强。故选C。

Corfu an island off the coast of Greece, offers visitors sunkissed shores with clear water and lots of beaches.
Finding the Perfect Beach
Our first pick is Sidari Beach. It’s a blue flag beach perfect for couples looking for a more private feel as it’s far from bigger tourist destinations. Issos Beach makes for the perfect place for watching the sunset. Dassia Bay has a bit more water sports. Paleokastritsa is an amazing West Coast village with six beaches on offer, including Rovinia Beach.
Getting around Corfu
Corfu offers bike rentals and bus service as a cheaper alternative (替代) to taxis. The best time to visit Corfu is during the “shoulder season” in April/May. The weather isn’t as warm as the high seasons but it remains perfect. It is not crowded in this period, but you still need to book ahead of schedule as Corfu stays popular throughout the year.
Eating Out For Less
There are a lot of well-priced restaurants but street food is also a big winner. Some popular choices are Souvlakia and Pita Gyros. There are also many cheeses special to Greece, including Tirokafteri and Ladotyri. Corfu also has many unbelievable desserts (甜食). Stazei Meli is a tourist favourite to give them a try.

Leaving everything behind to go after true happiness takes courage, and Sophie Matterson has enough to go around. The 3l-year-old enjoyed a good life in Brisbane, Australia, with a job in the TV and film industry, but it didn’t make her heart sing. That’s why she decided to try a different path. Now she’s trekking (跋涉) across the continent with five camels (骆驼) — and is the happiest she’s ever been!
In 2016, Sophie changed jobs and ended up somewhere she never expected: milking camels on a farm in Queensland.
“What I wasn’t anticipating was how much I would end up falling in love with these animals,” she wrote. “What was only going to be a six-month break from my ‘real job’ turned into five years of running after camels around Australia and other parts of the world.”
After taking tourists on camel treks for a while, Sophie decided to have an adventure of her own. She planned out a 5,000-kilometer trip from Shark Bay to Byron Bay before catching and training five wild camels in January 2019. Then she was finally ready to explore her country with Mac, Delilah, Clayton, Jude, and Charlie!
As one might imagine, the trip can be lonely at times, but Sophie’s camels make surprisingly good companions.
“It’s quite lovely and relaxing camping with camels,” she said. Best of all, she can see great views!
Sophie hopes to arrive in Byron Bay in the next nine months. In the meantime, she’ll be enjoying every second with her camel friends.
4. Why did Sophie give up her job in the TV and film industry

B. It took much courage to carry on.
C. She needed to move to another country fora new job.
D. She was unwilling to leave everything behind to go for it.

A. believing. B. discovering. C. trying. D. expecting.
6. Where did Sophie get the camels
A. From a farm. B. From some friends.
C From the wild. D. From some tourists.
7. Which word can best describe Sophie
A. thoughtful. B. Adventurous. C. responsible. D. confident.

20-year-old Colen Nulgit and his girlfriend, Shantelle Johnson, had gone out for a daytime fishing trip at Keep River National Park in Australia last week when their car became stuck in some mud (淤泥).
When they were unable to free the car from the mud, they began to worry. The park’s waterways are usually full of crocodiles, and the couple had already seen plenty of crocodile tracks running through the mud. Not only that, they had only brought a few bottles of water and little food for the trip.
Nulgit and Johnson tried to fall asleep in their car, but as the sun set and the nearby water levels began to rise, they feared that the high tide (潮水) would bring the crocodiles closer to their car. The young couple then moved towards dry land and hoped for rescue. They even used a piece of wood to write the word “HELP” into the mud along with a line pointed towards their car.
Thankfully, the couple had been careful to tell Nulgit’s parents where they were going and when they expected to be home; so when they failed to return the very same night, his worried mother called the police. Rescuers began searching the area by airplane the next morning. Upon hearing the sound of the plane, the couple started a fire so the rescuers would see the smoke. As the plane drew closer to the smoke, rescuers successfully located the couple after they caught sight of the “HELP” sign pointing towards the car.
Nulgit and Johnson were very thankful for the rescue. They now plan on putting together a set of emergency survival tools for the car.
8. What happened to Nulgit and Johnson
A. They got lost. B. Their car was broken.
C. They run out of supplies. D. They got stuck in a dangerous place.
9. What did Nulgit and Johnson do to help themselves
A. They started a fire for warmth. B. They looked for survival tools.
C. They phoned their parents for help. D. They made a sign.
10. Who called the police

Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.
Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.
But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him, not even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics, somebody stole his shoes. Thorpe improvised (临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.
He still went on to win two gold medals—winning each event he competed in except for one, the javelin (标枪). The javelin was the only event he didn’t win, probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time, he didn’t know that he could throw it with a running start. He threw it standing still and was placed second.
At the Olympics，he also took part in the decathlon (十项全能运动). He finished first in two events, third in four events, and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a dominating force that couldn’t be stopped and just kept on going.
I think Paul Dughi said it best, “It’s hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn’t matter what kind he wore.”
12. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean
A. The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.
B. Thorpe’s success was no guarantee of a better life.
C. Thorpe’s career brought him both gains and losses.
D. Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.
13. Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot
A. To prevent the foot from injury. B. To make the shoe fit the foot.
C. To stop the shoe from being stolen. D. To show his problem-solving skills.
14. What most likely led to Thorpe’s failure to win the javelin
A. Loss of his own sports shoes. B. A casual attitude towards the event.
C. Lack of experience in the event. D. A shortage of talent for the event.
15. Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe
A. Loyal and enthusiastic. B. Genuine and creative.
C. Tough and strong-minded. D. Selfless and good-tempered.
