“Mom, I can’t wait to own a fast Porsche(保时捷),” said sixteen-year-old Steve, as he drove our old family car home after he passed his driving test. “A Porsche is expensive,” I replied, “You will have to work hard to earn one.”
Over the next several years, Steve tried his best to realize the goal. After high school, he won a scholarship(奖学金)to study at a famous university and graduated with honors. Later he earned an MBA degree and got a job in a large company. Then he got married.

Let me take you for a ride and show you what this car can do. I’ll take Dad later.” We climbonto the sports car, and then he started the car. We sped up along a wide road, shot up a long bridge and performed a fast turn before we headed for home. “Wow! That was an exciting ride!
“This car is better than all my expectations,
” I said, as I climbed out of the comfortable seat.

Travel has become part of our lives. And more and more of us have come to
know the importance of travel through our own experiences. Travelling broadens our mind. We may get knowledge from books, but it is limited in real life. To make up for this disadvantage, we should travel to see things which can not be found in books. To our surprise，the longer we travel, the more we will treasure our life.
My travel to Xishuangbanna, a place of interest in Yunnan, is a good example in point. The journey made me enrich my knowledge, especially geographical learning. This trip provided me with the chance to taste food cooked by people of the minority（少数民族）, and try on their clothes that I otherwise could not have. By making friends with people there, I came to know that boys of this minority should be, at an early age, sent to a temple to receive the education of Buddhism(佛教). That is why we often notice many teenagers wearing the clothes of a monk in public. If it had not been for the travel to Xishuangbanna , I would not have known a lot about customs practiced in other parts of China.
In view of my experience in Xishuangbanna , I firmly believe that travel is one of the best ways to broaden our minds. It enriches our knowledge so that we come back home with a broader mind.
Judging from the above-mentioned facts, how can we ignore the advantages brought by travelling?

“broaden” in the first paragraph means ______?
C. reduce
D. disturb

2. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Travel has become part of our life. B. Travelling makes us happy.

’t know in books.

3. According to the passage, which is NOT the advantage of travelling? A. It gives us the chance of leaving our work. B. It broadens our mind. C. It expands our knowledge.
D. It gives us the chance of knowing the customs.
4. Why do many teenagers wear the clothes of a monk in public? A. Because monks are respected by all the teenagers.
B. Because they should be sent to a temple to receive the education of Buddhism. C. Because their school life is mainly in the temple.
D. Because most of them will live in the temple for some time. 5. What is the writerA. disappointed C
A few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.
One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents.
In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.
Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.
1. The first paragraph tells us that _______.
’s attitude towards travelling?B. worried
C. puzzled
D. supportive
