A

Long bus rides are like television shows.They have a beginning，a middle，and an end with commercials (广告) thrown in every three of four minutes.The commercials are unavoidable.They happen whether you want them or not.Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window.“Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”“Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep，which is equal to turning the television set off，are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It！Buy It Now！”．

The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting，even if you’ve traveled that way 84cee4f00812a21614791711cc7931b764ce7b29ually some things have changed—new houses，new buildings，sometimes even a new ro ad.The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so.If the driver is particularly reckless(鲁莽的)or daring，the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story.Will the driver pass the truck in time？Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane？After a while，of course，the excitement dies down.Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride.Food always makes bus rides more interesting.But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat.T oo much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.

The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning.You know it will soon be over

2

and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that.The seat，of course，has become harder as the hours have pas sed.By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed，with your hands in your lap，with your hands on the armrest or even with your hands crossed behind your head.The end comes just at the right time.There are just no more ways to sit.

(2014·辽宁大连高三双基测试)Are you tired of traveling with family，friends，the loved one or passing acquaintances?

Young people are grabbing their passports and trekkiing around the world on their own，not because they have no one to travel with，but because they prefer to go alone with only the backpacks.

Kristina Wegscheider，from San Jose in California，the US，first traveled unaccompanied when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone

should do at least once in their life.

“It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out your comfort zone，”said the 28－year－old，who works in human resources for a technology company.

Foreign lands can be tricky to navigate at the best of time.With no one to help you read a map，look after you if you get ill，or lend you money if your wallet is stolen，they are challenging.

This is what drives young people to go alone.It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.

Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go backpacking last year.

He set up a website，The Aussie Nomad，to document his adventures.He says he wished he had gone on his own earlier.

“The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m tackling a difficult task.”said the 30－year －old，“I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing impossible if you try.”

One of the greatest concerns of young people who are considering traveling abroad unaccompanied is that they’ll be lonely.Yet，young people are also fascinated by loneliness.Perhaps it is because they have grown up in a world where you are always contactable，and want to know what it’s like to be cut off.Or，perhaps it’s because they believe that only by being without distractions can you truly experience the world around you.

The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said：“Only by going alone in silence，without baggage，can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter.”

5．What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Traveling with backpacks appeals only to young people.

B．Traveling is what everyone should do at least once in life.

C．Traveling alone can get one into the heart of the wilderness.

D．Travel alone with baggage left behind.

6．The underlined word in the second paragraph means________.

A．traveling alone pushes him out of his comfort zone

B．traveling alone helps him truly experience the world outside

C．experience gained by traveling alone helps him a lot

D．setting up a website helps travel alone
