题目
Read the passage followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C, and D. If you don't have much money, what are some cheap ways to travel? In fact, there are a few "almost free" ways to travel. One is to drive a car for a car-moving company. When people move from one part of the country to another, they often need to move their cars, but they don't want to drive them themselves. They pay a car-moving company to do this for them. Some of these companies hire people to drive the cars. The drivers usually have to make a deposit (押金)and pay for petrol, but this is a great way to travel if you can find a car going your way. A bigger problem is how to get back home! How about a free plane ride? If you can fly with almost no advance notice, you can be a courier (信差)for a mailing company. A courier delivers mail in a hurry. The company may buy you a round-trip plane ticket if you deliver a package for them. There are even companies that need to make large mailings internationally. Because it's so expensive to send international mail, these companies pay for someone to fly overseas with boxes of letters for their offices or customers in other countries. The way to travel "completely free" by air is ____.A. being a courier for a mailing companyB. sending expensive international mailC. flying without any advance noticeD. delivering mail in a hurry

How about a free plane ride? If you can fly with almost no advance notice, you can be a courier (信差)for a mailing company. A courier delivers mail in a hurry. The company may buy you a round-trip plane ticket if you deliver a package for them. There are even companies that need to make large mailings internationally.

The way to travel "completely free" by air is ____. - A. being a courier for a mailing company

- D. delivering mail in a hurry
题目解答
答案
文章介绍了两种低成本旅行方式：一是为汽车搬迁公司开车，需支付押金和油费；二是作为快递公司信差乘机。对于国际快递，公司可能支付机票费用，让乘客携带大量信件出国。此方式可实现“完全免费”旅行。
选项分析：
A. 正确。作为快递公司信差，可获免费机票，符合题意。
B. 不是旅行方式。
C. 未提及“完全免费”。
D. 未说明机票费用。
答案：A. being a courier for a mailing company
解析
本题考查对文章细节信息的理解。解题思路是仔细阅读文章中关于免费坐飞机旅行的相关内容，然后分析每个选项与文章内容是否相符。
- 文章提到 “If you can fly with almost no advance notice, you can be a courier (信差) for a mailing company. The company may buy you a round - trip plane ticket if you deliver a package for them.”，说明作为快递公司的信差有可能获得免费机票。
- 分析选项：
- A选项：“being a courier for a mailing company”，与文章中提到的作为快递公司信差可获得免费机票的内容相符，所以该选项正确。
- B选项：“sending expensive international mail”，文章中说的是公司支付费用让信差携带信件出国，而不是发送昂贵的国际邮件这种行为本身是免费坐飞机的方式，所以该选项错误。
- C选项：“flying without any advance notice”，文章只是说几乎不需要提前通知可以成为快递公司信差，但仅不提前通知飞行并不能保证完全免费坐飞机，所以该选项错误。
- D选项：“delivering mail in a hurry”，文章强调的是作为快递公司信差这个身份可能带来免费机票，而不是匆忙送邮件这个行为，所以该选项错误。
