B.Rewarding.C.Embarrassing. D.Shrinking.√词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句后半部分“the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention”可知,这一趋势引起的广泛关注令人难以置信,从而推知画线词意思是“难以置信的,令人惊讶的”。故选A。解析3.Which of the following statements is NOT Citywalk A.An immersive route for foreigners to enjoy the alleys in Chengdu.B.A holiday travel to hurriedly visit crowded landmarks in Shanghai.C.A free walk including visiting museums and old towns in Qingdao.D.A

tourist landmarks,the new trend has emerged(出现) as a popular alternative to explore busy markets,ancient streets,and charming alleys at a leisurely pace.”可知,城市漫步不包括“匆忙游览上海拥挤的地标的假日旅行”。故选B。解析4.What have some governments done to promote Citywalk A.Facilities in the museums have been enhanced.B.Cooperation has been strengthened among cities.C.Opportunities have been offered to third-tier cities.D.Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.√细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In Shanghai,public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for

all about peaceful,quiet and cozy(温暖舒适的) surroundings.Sounds perfect,doesn’t it?Holiday hygge is easy and comforting.Most people are already doing at least some of these simple hygge holidays without even knowing it.语篇解读 本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种度假模式——“hygge for the holidays”。Hygge is a Danish word originally coming from an old Norwegian word meaning well-being and protection from the outside harm.It’s known that winters in Denmark are severe and last long.The concept of hygge has been used by Danish people to keep themselves mentally positive in the dark winter season and fill their homes with comfort and love.Hygge is a very important word to Danish people,often used to describe what their culture is all about and it is not necessarily a thing,something you can buy,but rather more of something you feel.Hygge really is a reflection of one aspect of Danish living,and,happily,in the last five years the concept of hygge has made its way to the US and many other countries.I mean what’s not to like about nurturing(培育)peace and quiet and coziness Here are some more descriptive words for hygge:comfort,familiarity,friendship,laughter,and even seasonal homemade food and drinks.While it is possible to achieve hygge any time of the year with hygge activities—an outdoor BBQ with friends and a movie under the stars with family are good examples of summertime hygge,it is most commonly associated with the colder months because of its ability to lift one’s spirits during dark winter months.Hygge is the most suitable for the November and December holiday season because it’s all about peaceful and cozy surroundings that fill you with contentment.There is indeed something you can do to bring holiday hygge into your home this season.5.Why do Danish people choose a hygge holiday A.To deal with cold and long winters.B.To follow the latest holiday trend.C.To fight against nature physically.D.To spend more time with their family.√细节理解题。根据第二段中“It’s known that winters in Denmark are severe and last long.The concept of hygge has been used by Danish people to keep themselves mentally positive in the dark winter season and fill their homes with comfort and love.”可知,丹麦人选择hygge这样的度假方式是为了应对寒冷漫长的冬季。故选A。解析6.How does the author find hygge A.It reflects Danish living totally.B.It is mainly about some feeling.C.It is limited to Denmark and the US.D.It represents ancient Danish culture.√细节理解题。根据第三段首句“Hygge is a very important word to Danish people,often used to describe what their culture is all about and it is not necessarily a thing,something you can buy,but rather more of something you feel.”可知,作者认为这种度假方式重在感觉。故选B。解析7.What message is conveyed in paragraph 4 A.People do hygge in more ways.B.Hygge is preferred in summertime.C.Hygge is still perfect for winter.D.People access hygge in certain time.√推理判断题。根据第四段中“...it is most commonly associated with the colder months because of its ability to lift one’s spirits during dark winter months.”可知,虽然现在在一年中的任何时候都可以进行hygge活动,但作者强调的是这种度假方式仍然最适合冬季。故选C。解析8.What might the author go on to talk about A.Ways of hygge celebrations.B.Tips on achieving hygge.C.Different opinions about hygge.D.Benefits of bringing hygge into home.√推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There is indeed something you can do to bring holiday hygge into your home this season.”可推断出作者接下来可能会介绍一些能帮助你把hygge带回家的途径,即获取hygge的方法。故选B。解析(2025·广东汕头高二上期末)A 23-year-old woman has achieved an unbelievable feat that many of us dream of—visiting every country on Earth.语篇解读
