题组提分练17 Unit 2 Working the land ‎ 限时35分钟　‎ 加黑体小题训练推理判断题之观点态度题 阅读理解A　(2018·天津红桥区模拟)　体裁：应用文　话题：旅游与交通　难度：★★☆☆☆‎ Some adventure travel types may laugh at the idea of getting on a cruise ship, thinking of it as being too usual. They should get over that. ‎ There are places in the world that are best seen and experienced on water, including new destinations. Check out our picks for the 4 best cruises.‎ Antarctica and the ‎South Shetland Islands Icebergs, glaciers (冰川), whales, penguins and elephant seals are the big attractions to the “Great White Continent”. In this destination list, you'll dress a heavy jacket for tours exploring the cold, bare landscape, bluelighted icebergs and other sights. Upscale French line Ponant Cruises' 264passenger ships cruise the region late November through January.‎ The Galapagos Nature rules over these islands, about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador (厄瓜多尔), and local creatures are surprisingly unafraid of humans. You may find yourself stepping over sea lions to cross a beach, eyetoeye with a bluefooted bird, diving with young sea lions and getting very close to a curious iguana (鬣蜥). The 92passenger Celebrity Xpedition cruises the islands yearround.‎ Alaska Seeing a glacier break brings high drama. On small ship line Alaskan Dream Cruises you'll also communicate with bald eagles and seals as you quietly paddle in a remote bay. Travel routes avoid the tourist spots in favor of a Southeast Alaska wild experience—you're more likely to see a leaping whale than a jewelry store. The line's ships carry fewer than 60 passengers on spring and summer cruises.‎ The ‎Arctic Come for the polar bears that rule the North Pole, but stay for the astonishing event of the Midnight Sun, plus the sights of glaciers, icebergs and surprising areas of wildflowers. Keep your telescope balanced to spot elephant seals, white whales, ‎ 8‎ bearded seals, rare birds and arctic deer in an extremely beautiful landscape. Hurtigruten's 328passenger polar discovery ship MS Fram sails her June to August.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文介绍了四个最有趣的游轮之旅。‎ ‎1．Comparing with other adventure travel types, the author thinks having a cruise is ________.‎ A. ordinary B. risky C. traditional D. interesting 答案与解析　D　观点态度题。根据第一段第二句“他们应该停止这种想法”结合选项可知作者认为“坐游轮是有趣的”。‎ ‎2．In October, which of the following cruises can offer you a water experience?‎ A.

Xiang Xiang is the first cub to be born in the Ueno Zoo in five years. ‎ For decades, the animal has never failed in its duty as China's ambassador of friendship and has won the hearts of thousands of people worldwide.(说明熊猫的作用)‎ Panda diplomacy started in 1957, when a giant panda named Ping Ping was sent to the former Soviet Union as a national gift.
