【題目】 Earlier this summer, after packing my rucksack for a wild-camping holiday, I gazed at my belongings, and made a final adjustment to the contents of my bag.1

I quickly emailed my travel companion, a photographer friend called Jacob to make sure I could have some pictures of our trip afterwards, so I could pop a few up on Instagram when I returned. And then I set off, feeling — for the first time in a number of trips — that I was genuinely escaping the stresses and strains of my everyday life.2Because the way stress locates us, these days, is via our phones.

3However, I've realized that for a holiday really to function as a holiday, I need an escape from social status anxiety , from caring about “l(fā)ikes”, and from having to photograph every tiny detail of life to prove our existence. When we overshare a glossy version of our trip online, we miss out on talking about our trips when we return, which is part of the joy of travel. Posting in the moment denies us this opportunity to relive (回味) our experience, and prolong that holiday feeling.4

During my three-day Insta-break, my stress levels decrease quickly within 24 hours.5I made mental notes of funny moments, cultural observations, tips and when I returned, I had interesting, detailed chats with friends about my time away.

A.I also changed how I processed the trip itself.

B.So I am fully supportive of screen-free holidays.

C.I took out my iPhone, and threw it under my bed.

D.1 would lose track of my coworkers, my friends and my family.

E.None of them could touch me for the next three glorious days.

F.So this summer, as you plan your trip, ask if you can delete Instagram.

G.As a travel writer, abandoning my phone for my holiday felt like the extreme betrayal.

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。文章介紹作者放下手機,進行了一次完全擁抱大自然的旅行。

1根據(jù)第一句中的“I gazed at my belongings, and made a final adjustment to the contents of my bag(我盯著自己的東西,最后調(diào)整了一下包里的東西)”中“belongings”和“contents”可知,作者要調(diào)整自己旅行時所帶的東西。由此可知,本句為說明作者做出了哪些物品調(diào)整。故C選項“我拿出我的iPhone,把它扔到床底下”符合上下文語境,故選C

2根據(jù)上句中的“for the first time”可知,這次旅行作者第一次逃脫了生活壓力,根據(jù)后文Because the way stress locates us, these days, is via our phones.可知,因為如今,壓力定位我們的方式是通過我們的手機。由此可知,此處是在解釋作者沒有壓力的原因,故可推知,本句是在說明作者沒有壓力的原因是他們無法通過手機聯(lián)系到自己。故E 選項“在接下來的三天里,他們誰也聯(lián)系不到我”符合上下文語境,故選E。

3根據(jù)空后的however一詞可知,前后兩句話之間應構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,根據(jù)后文However, I've realized that for a holiday really to function as a holiday, I need an escape from social status anxiety , from caring about “l(fā)ikes”, and from having to photograph every tiny detail of life to prove our existence.可知,然而,我已經(jīng)意識到,為了讓假期真正起到度假的作用,我需要擺脫對社會地位的焦慮,擺脫對“喜歡”的關(guān)心,擺脫不得不拍攝生活中每一個微小的細節(jié)來證明我們的存在。由此可知,本句是在說明如今的度假需要用拍攝生活中的細節(jié)來證明自己的存在,那么不帶手機去度假反而像是一種對這一趨勢的背叛。故G選項“作為一名旅行作家,放棄手機去度假感覺像是一種極端的背叛”符合上下文語境,故選G

4根據(jù)上文Posting in the moment denies us this opportunity to relive (回味) our experience, and prolong that holiday feeling.可知,即時發(fā)帖讓我們沒有機會重溫我們的經(jīng)歷,延長了假期的感覺。由此可推知,作者是贊成不帶手機旅行的。本空位置屬于總結(jié)句位置,故B選項“所以我完全支持無屏幕假期”符合上下文語境,故選B

5根據(jù)后文I made mental notes of funny moments, cultural observations, tips and when I returned, I had interesting, detailed chats with friends about my time away.可知,我在腦海里記下有趣的時刻、文化觀察、小竅門,回來后,我會和朋友們聊起我在國外度過的時光,聊得很有趣,也很詳細。由此可知,作者在不用手機的休息期間,對旅行的方式也有了改變?蘸罅信e了作者對旅行的各種全新規(guī)劃,與A項中的processed the trip相符,故A選項“我也改變了對旅行本身的處理方式”符合上下文語境,故選A。

We all expect such a picture. On the warm and pleasant weekend, we drive to the countryside for a picnic. After lunch, sit under a tall and straight pine tree, we drink tea and chat each other. Our parents recalled old family stories and share with us their youthful experience. Of course, they also praise us for our progress.
