But very few people can afford a global tour because hotels, food and airplane tickets are too expensive. Some people, however, have thought of some ways to realize their dreams.Laura Cody and Tanbay Theune, a couple from Britain, decided to travel around the world. They have found a good way to pay for their trips. They look after pets for rich house owners. In exchange, they can stay in the houses for free. They have looked after horses, cows, cats, dogs and fish. In two years, the couple has been to Australia, Germany, Spain and Italy. They have stayed in big cities and small villages. The home owners are usually very generous and have given them food, wine and day trips.Another person who tries to realize her travel dream is photographer Rhiannon Taylor. She travels around the world to visit, review and take photos of the best hotels. She shares the places she stays and the food she eats on the Internet with tens of thousands of followers.With these ways of making money, traveling around the world is no longer a dream. More and more young people are thinking creatively to make their dream come true.（1）Why do most people feel hard to make their travel dream come true?A . Because they can hardly find hotels.B . Because the food is not healthy.C . Because the cost of travel is high.D . Because they are afraid of adventure.（2）The best word to describe the way of realizing the travel dream is .A . specialB . creativeC . richD . adventurous（3）It is known from the passage that Laura and Tanbay paid for their trips by .A . staying in the house for freeB . being given food and day drinksC . going to Australia and other countriesD . looking after pets for rich house owners（4）According to the passage, Taylor is a photographer who shares her photos .A . on the InternetB . during her travelC . with hundreds of followersD . during staying in hotels（5）What does the underlined word generous mean in Chinese?A . 吝啬的B . 友善的C . 慷慨的D . 冷漠的18. （6分） Is learning a foreign language ever easy? Yes. If you are five and move to another country, you will quickly pick up the language. But what about for the rest of us who are no longer five, and need to be polite when traveling for business or for pleasure? I think that answer is also yes. Language learning can be easy if you dont want or need to learn too much.The key to successful language learning in my mind is not to set the goal too high. It is rather like running. Even if you run twice a week, you dont necessarily want to be able to run a marathon (马拉松). You might just want to keep a level of fitness. I think the same can be true for language learning.Lets get back to the goal. If you decide to learn ten words in a foreign language before visiting the country, you know that you will be sure to do this. However, if you decide to talk to people with great fluency (流利), unless you are quite a talented person, you will probably fail and give up in half-way.It is also far easier to start learning a foreign language than to finish. In other words, the better you are, the slower it can be to improve, because you will not be able to move further because of grammar, making sentences, learning less common words, etc. If you are only trying to learn a few foreign words and sentences, you will enjoy faster progress, have more fun, and wont have to spend too much time.The idea of learning only a few hundred words in a language, and then stopping, isnt the usual way to language learning, but it can be a very meaningful and enjoyable activity.（1）In the writers opinion, it is easy for adults to learn English if _.A . they are especially talented peopleB . they dont want or need to learn too muchC . they have to spend a lot of time on itD . they have a chance to go abroad（2）The writer believes that if you want to be good at a foreign language, you will probably _.A . forget your own goalsB . become a talented language learnerC . get tired of learning itD . reach your learning goal（3）The best title of this passage would be _.A . Easy Language LearningB . Hard Language LearningC . Fluency in a Foreign LanguageD . A way of Language Learning19. （4分） She is a beautiful red-haired girl. she has been shopping with her mom in Wal-Mart. It was raining hard outside. We all stood there under the awning (雨篷).
