Ⅲ.阅读理解(15分)
There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel, and I know that the experience will make one a better person.
I remember when I was travelling that I began to know the world better. The world is not just about me, my small town and home. Although you will meet different people from all over the world, you will realise that people are similar in their dreams, hopes and feelings. Enjoy exploring the different cultures, and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live. Once you understand their ways, it need not be strange or scary. Often we read stories about other cultures in books. Only when we visit their areas, do we find that those stories are something wrong.
One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world. We can't just get money to send to these areas and hope that will work them out. The world should get involved(干预) and help wherever there are problems. People everywhere should be given a chance. It is so easy to ignore(忽视) this if one does not travel and explore. One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges worse than ours. One can realise that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all.
On your journey you will meet lots of new friends. Talking to strangers and finding about their lives is a great way to spend your time. You will certainly be more confident after having to cope_with problems and make many decisions along the way.
When you travel, you have to be on your own in some situations. You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that. All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read. It would be filled with all your adventures and special memories.
Travelling around and seeing so much happening in the world around us is a wonderful experience. If we could all just travel a little more and share our experiences, we would all be better people and the world would be a better place.
21.From Paragraph 2, we can learn that________.
A.people around the world are the same in their hopes
B.books always tell us wrong stories about cultures
C.travelling can help us better understand the world
D.people in different places have strange living habits
22.According to Paragraph 3, we can help the areas in need by________.
A.sending them money
B.offering them chances
C.looking around
D.giving them challenges
23.The expression “cope with” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “________”.
A.solve B.avoid C.meet D.cover
24.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A.People in the World Are Family
B.Travelling Helps One Make More Friends
C.People in the World Share One Dream
D.Travelling Makes One a Better Person
25.What's the writer's purpose of writing the passage?
A.To share his travel experiences with other people.
B.To encourage more people to travel around.
C.To show how travelling can change the world
D.To tell people how to travel around the world.

It's a good idea to go travelling during the summer vacation. I think the best place to visit is the Palace Museum.

We can see a lot of ancient buildings, including palaces, temples and towers. If we go to visit the Palace Museum, we should pay attention to our safety.
