Townhouse部分提到的“InsideitoffersanabundanceofpersonalityandatouchofodditywithnodstothefamouswriterOscarWilde.(在里面，它提供了丰富的个性和一丝古怪，向著名作家奥斯卡·王尔德致敬。)”可知，SentryMead和Mayfair

Townhouse与文学相关，因此文学爱好者或许喜欢这两个地方。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据Mayfair

Townhouse部分提到的“Puppiesstayforfreeandreceiveablanket,bowland“screaming”ballfortheirstay.(小狗可以免费入住，并在入住期间获得毯子、碗和“尖叫”球。)”可知，Mayfair

Townhouse为小狗提供新玩具(Screaming

ball)。故选A。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段内容“Lookingtotakeyourfour-leggedfriendonholiday?Herearethebestpet-friendlyhotelsintheUK.(想带你的四条腿的朋友去度假吗？以下是英国最好的宠物友好型酒店。)”可知，文章是关于宠物友好型酒店的，目标读者应该是带着狗去旅行的人，故选D。BRoadtripswerepartofmychildhood,butitishardtosaytheyareentirelyfondmemories.Assomeonewhoeasilygotcarsick,Ispentmostofthelongdriveswithmyheadagainstthewindoworleaningawkwardlytotheside.Moreoften,however,IwouldhavetosleepthroughtheCDsinourbeatencar.TherewasoneCDthatweoftenplayed,onethatbecamethesymbolicRoadTripCDinmymind.ItwasanalbuminMandarin(普通话)bymymom’sfavoritemusicartist,LeonLai,whoIunderstoodwasamajorCantopoplegendinhisday.WeseeminglyonlyplayedtheunidentifiedLeonLaiCDduringourhour-longroadtrips.Ididn’tknowwhatitwascalleduntilIwasinhighschoolandsuccessfullyuncovereditbysearchingthroughLeonLai’salbumsonSpotifyuntilIfoundtheoneliketheCDcoverart.向往，orLonging,a1998Mandarinrelease,didn’tseemtobeoneofLeonLai’smostfamousworks.Mymomdidn’tseemtorememberwhyshehaditeither.ThefactthatitwasinMandarin,however,mademyparentsevenmorewillingtoplayitonrepeat.Tomakeupformeandmybrother’sembarrassingunfamiliaritywiththeChineselanguage,throughoutourchildhoodtheywerekeenonhavinguswatchshowsandlistentomusicinChineseasawayforustoimmerseourselvesandmakeupforthegroundwelost.TheywereusuallyinMandarin,becausethatwaswhatourformalChineseschoolingtaughtus,eventhoughCantonesewasthedialectourfamilyactuallyspoke.ThisatleastmeantIcouldusewhatIlearnedinclasstounderstandthelyricsinthisalbum,thoughIfoundthesinginghardertounderstand.Duetotheendlessexposuretothesongsontheroad,thegenuinelymemorablemixofupbeatandballad-liketunes,aswellashowwellitshowsmycomplicatedconnectiontotheChineselanguage,thisrandomalbumholdsaspecialplaceinmyheart.4.Howdidtheauthorfeelduringroadtrips?A.Bored.

dofbecomingawriter(当我还是个孩子的时候，我梦想成为一名作家)”可推断，E选项“我意识到我正在做我小时候梦想的事情。”符合语境，选项中的“something

I

dreamed

of

as

a

child”与文章开头一句呼应，说明我开始实现儿时的梦想，成为一个作家，故选E。【19题详解】空前“EncouragingfeedbackfromtutorsgavemetheconfidencetosubmitmyworkforpublicationontheInternet.(导师的鼓励反馈给了我信心，让我把我的作品提交到互联网上发表。)”可知，空处描述在网上发表文章后的读者回复，B选项的“unexpected

and

overpowering”呼应下文“people

emailed…Some

even

asked

for

advice”，因此推断B项“读者的反应出乎意料，令人难以抗拒。”符合语境，故选B。【20题详解】根据下文“IamdoingwhatIlove.Onmyjourney,Ihavelearnedthatitisnevertoolatetopursueandliveyourdream.(我在做我喜欢的事。在我的旅途中，我明白了追求和实现自己的梦想永远不会太晚。)”可知，空处对前文总结，总结追梦带来的变化，C选项中“look

younger

and
