B.CultureofWalkingCatchingoninCitiesC.APopularSocialPlatform D.GoingFreetoExploretheWorld【答案】4.C5.B6.A7.B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了城市漫步作为一种个性化和不同的旅游方式，满足了人们以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的需求，是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式，受到了人们的喜爱。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Withtheincreasingvarietyoftravelchoices,traditionalgrouptoursnolongersatisfypeoplewhoarelookingforamorepersonalanddifferenttravelexperienceandhopingtoexploreeverypartofthecityinamoreimmersive(沉浸式的)way.(随着旅游选择的多样化，传统的团体游已经不能满足那些寻求更个性化和不同的旅行体验，并希望以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的每一个部分的人)”和最后一段中Zhao所说的话“Citywalkingisallaboutdoingwhateveryouwantinyourownexplorationofacity,anditisactuallythekindofslowpaced,lowcarbonlifestylethatIrelatetosomuch(城市漫步就是在探索城市的过程中做任何你想做的事情，它实际上是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式，我非常喜欢)”可推知，因为不同于传统的团体游，城市漫步是探索城市的一种更愉快、更个人化的方式，所以赵称城市漫步是“重新发现一个城市”的最好方式。故选C项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中“Thetrendingcitywalkculture,whichencouragesexperiencingurbanlifewithnotransportationmeansexceptone’slegsandfeet,hasalsomadesplashesonvarioussocialmediaplatforms.(流行的城市漫步文化也在各大社交媒体平台上引起了轰动，这种文化鼓励人们在除了腿和脚之外没有任何交通工具的情况下体验城市生活)”可知，城市漫步文化鼓励人们在没有交通工具的情况下体验自由城市生活。故选B项。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“OnthevideosharingappDouyin,theChineseversionofTikTok,arecentvideoaboutcitywalkroutesinGuangzhou,Guangdongprovince,hasgainedmorethan171,000likes,with72,000viewersofallagesaddingthevideototheirfavorites.AccordingtoareportfromlifestylesharingplatformXiaohongshu,inthefirsthalfofthisyear,searchesaboutcitywalksincreased30foldfromthepreviousyear.(在视频分享应用抖音，中国版的TikTok上，最近发布的一段关于广东省广州城市漫步路线的视频，获得了超过17.1万个赞，有7.2万名不同年龄的观众把这段视频加到了自己的收藏中。根据生活方式分享平台小红书的一份报告，今年上半年，关于城市漫步的搜索量比去年增长了30倍)”可知，城市漫步在抖音和小红书两个平台上都是热门话题。由此可知，城市漫步在互联网上很受欢迎。故选A项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段“paredwithtightlyscheduledroutes(路线)andpicturetakingtours,citywalkingfocusesonfree,casualandspontaneous(自发的)experiences.Thetrendingcitywalkculture,whichencouragesexperiencingurbanlifewithnotransportationmeansexceptone’slegsandfeet,hasalsomadesplashesonvarioussocialmediaplatforms.(与紧凑的路线和拍照旅游相比，城市漫步侧重于自由、随意和自发的体验。流行的城市漫步文化也在各大社交媒体平台上引起了轰动，这种文化鼓励人们在除了腿和脚之外没有任何交通工具的情况下体验城市生活)”可知，文章围绕城市漫步展开，介绍了城市漫步作为一种个性化和不同的旅游方式，满足了人们以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的需求，是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式，受到了人们的喜爱。因此，B项“漫步文化在城市中流行起来”契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选B项。CNotmanypeoplenoticethatWednesdaysareusuallycalled‘HumpDay(驼峰日)’.Theterm‘hump’isanexpressionmonlyusedtorefertoWednesday.The1950swasthefirsttimewhenWednesdayswerecalled‘HumpDay’.ThetermisreportedtohaveoriginatedintheUnitedStatesandhasbeenpopulareversince.Eversincethephrase(短语)originated,ithasalwaysbeenapopularwordamong9to5workers.ThephrasehasbeenamainsubjectofmanyGIFsthathavebeensharedacrosssocialmedia.MostpeopleareworkingfromMondaytoFriday,therefore,Wednesdayisconsideredthemiddayoftheweekwhenoneknowsthattheweekendishardlytwodaysaway.Interestingly,thephrase‘HumpDay’isusedasasenseofachievementasonehassuccessfullypletedthreedaysofaweek.Thephrase‘HumpDay’representsaweekasametaphorical(比喻的)hillthatapersonclimbs,withWednesdaytypicallyconsideredasthemiddleorpeak(顶峰)oftheweek.Themainimplication(含意)ofthephraseisthatpeoplecanclimbdowntheothersideofthehillandmovetowardstheweekend.And,astheweekendapproaches,theexcitementlevelintheairalsorises,andpeoplegetreadytoparty,relax,andhavefunwithfriendsandfamily.Individualswithnontraditionalworkschedulesmaynameadifferentday,asidefromWednesday,astheirpersonal‘HumpDay’.While‘HumpDay’ismainlypopularintheUS,therearemanyculturesthathavetheirownexpressionsforthemidpointoftheworkweek.OnesuchexamplecouldbeSweden,whereWednesdayisusuallyreferredtoas‘lillordag’,whichtranslatesto‘LittleSaturday’.Needlesstosay,thephraseisexplainedaspeoplelivinginSwedenconsideringWednesdayasadayofminicelebration.SothenexttimeWednesdayapproaches,younowknowthatitis‘HumpDay’andyoucanhaveaminicelebration.8.Whatcanbelearnedabout‘HumpDay’?A.Ithasastrongonlinepresence.B.Ithasanunprovenorigin.C.Itmetacoldweleatthebeginning.D.Itwentthroughupsanddownsinpopularity.9.Howwillmostpeopleprobablyfeelduring‘HumpDay’?A.Tired.
