in the elder, a part of experience.”evidence of leisure travel can be traced (追溯) as far back as ancient babylon. but this sort of travel only really took off after world war . this year, according to the world travel & tourism council, the 1 billionth tourist will cross an international boundary before the end of this month. that means that one in seven people on the planet travelled this year, something that would not have been possible a few decades ago. around 20 years ago only the rich could travel.while the us and france remain the two largest destinations for world travel, experts say much of the explosive growth in tourism has been to countries like guatemala, the dominican republic, and the ivory coast, which werent even on the world tourism map a decade ago. the top five destinations in the world, according to the united nations world tourism organization, are paris, london, new york, the mediterranean and turkey.several factors have led to the boom in world travel. the prosperity of people in asia is one factor. people in asian developing countries have lifted their incomes above middleclass levels in the past few years. “and a lot of them have used their new wealth to travel. in addition, travel costs have been reduced thanks to the rapid development of transportation and competition between airlines to give customers the best prices.topictravellingadvantagesenrich knowledge, especially in (1)_ and history.taste different (2)_ and buy different clothes.francis bacon thinks that travel is a part of education and a part of experience.development(3)_ from ancient babylon, travel only really took off after world war .only the wealthy people could go on a trip about two (4)_ ago.the number of people travelling abroad will (5)_ as many as 1 billion before the end of this month.tourist (6)_the us and france remain the two most popular countries for world travel.tourism has developed (7)_ in countries like guatemala, the dominican republic, and the ivory coast.the top five destinations in the world are paris, london, new york, the mediterranean and turkey.factors(8)_ in the popularity of global tourismasian people have got (9)_ than before. people have (10)_ less money on travel because of convenient transportation and price competition between airlines.答 案.1.选d由空后的“去哪儿对我来说都一样”可知，答话人是让对方做决定。enjoy yourself“玩得痛快”；its a deal“一言为定；成交”；dont mention it“不客气”。故its up to you“由你决定”符合题意。2选c句意：“我能改天再来了解关于你书店的详细信息吗？”“当然可以，我的秘书和图书管理员都将为你效劳。”be at sb.s service“为某人效劳”，符合语境。at sb.s request“应某人的要求”；help“帮助”；companion“同伴”。3选d句意：最近的一项研究得出一个意外结论，非洲象应被分成两个不同种类。keep up with“跟上”；make up with“和好”；catch up with“追上”；come up with“提出”。d项符合句意。4选b句意：为了在人群中被她的网友mike认出来，她特意穿了一条鲜艳的蓝裙子。不定式在句中作目的状语。动词recognize和she之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，故不定式应用被动语态形式，故b项正确。5选bplay a part in是固定搭配，意思是“在中扮演角色或起作用”；society为抽象名词，前面常不用冠词。6选d句意：“根据我奶奶的说法，感冒时喝鸡汤是个好主意。”“信不信由你，科学家们与她的看法相同。”sooner or later“迟早”；once in a while“时不时地”；to be exact“确切地说”；believe it or not“信不信由你”。根据上下文可知，believe it or not符合语境。7选b根据improving和day by day可知，琳达的身体在一天天“逐渐地(gradually)”康复。frequently“频繁地”；fluently“流利地”；actually“实际上”，均不符合语境。8选c当such 与some, other, these/those, no等代词连用时，such 置于这些代词之后；no修饰名词时，相当于not a 或者not any，故其后不再使用冠词。9选dblock“阻塞”；base“建立在基础上”，后跟介词on; occupy“占据；占领”；locate 用其系表结构be located in，意思是“位于”。10选c句意：你必须明白，虽然你母亲会采用不同的做法，但是这是我们做事的方式。so that“以便；以至于”；as well as“也；还”；even if“即使；虽然”；no matter what“无论什么”。11选c句意：快乐的人未必拥有最好的东西，他们只是充分利用了自己所遇到的一切。get the hang of“掌握的要领”；think little of“不把当一回事”；make the most of“充分利用”；take possession of“取得”。根据句意可知，c项当选。12选b句意：众所周知，袋鼠是澳
