解析
本题为英语完形填空题,主要考查语篇理解能力和上下文逻辑关系。解题关键在于:
- 通读全文,把握文章主旨(背包旅行的定义、刻板印象的打破、不同背包客的例子);
- 分析空格前后句意,关注逻辑衔接词(如转折、递进、总结);
- 匹配选项时注意语境一致性(如时间、地点、情感态度)。
第1空
语境:段首引出“backpacking”一词的定义。
选项G(“backpacking”来自“backpack”)直接解释词源,与后文“fill a backpack with life essentials”形成呼应,逻辑连贯。
第2空
语境:前文描述背包客的刻板印象(20多岁),后文转折说明“任何人可以背包旅行”。
选项B(“忘记这个”)承上启下,引导读者抛开刻板印象,为下文举例做铺垫。
第3空
语境:描述Mike和Lorraine的旅行细节,提到“偶尔停下来喝茶”。
选项F(“他们偶尔会停下来喝一杯应得的茶”)补充细节,且“in England after all”与前文“southwest coast of England”呼应,符合逻辑。
第4空
语境:Othmane的旅行虽艰难,但最终成功,强调经历的价值。
选项C(“值得”)总结这段经历的意义,与后文“fight for something”形成情感升华。
第5空
语境:结尾鼓励读者坚持旅行梦想。
选项A(“所以,不要放弃”)呼应全文,与前文“if you stick to that goal”形成完整逻辑闭环。
