16、rest Dthought 阅读理解 A Three Japanese tourists taking a holiday in Australia got stuck when their GPS told them they could drive from the mainland to an island, failing to mention the 15 kilometres of water and mud in between. As they drove their hired car from Moreton Bay to nearby North Stradbroke I
17、sland, they started to notice the firm surface they were driving on giving way to the well- known bay mud. However, being confident that their GPS would direct them to a road soon, they decided to drive on, managing to travel around 500 metres before their car was up to its tires in mud. To make mat
18、ters worse, the tide (潮汐) started to come in and soon forced them to seek help and abandon the vehicle. Just four hours later the car was trapped in two metres of waterto the great amusement of onlookers on the shore and passengers on passing boats and ferries. Yuzu Noda, 21, said she was listening
19、to the GPS and “it told us we could drive down there. It kept saying it would navigate (导航) US to a road. But we got stuck . theres lots of mud”. She and her travel companions Tomonari Saeki, 22, and Keita Osada, 21, instead had to give up their plans for a day trip to the island and headed back to
20、the Gold Coast of a lift from the RACQ tow truck (吊车) driver who was called to the trapped car. No such luck for the hired car, thoughafter assessing the situation, no attempt was made to recover it. The students from Tokyo, who are due to return home tomorrow, said the experience would not put them
21、 off returning to Australia for another visit. Mr Tomonari said, “It has rained every day on our six day holiday. Hopefully next time we come back it will be sunny.” The car was covered by insurance, but the tourists will have to pay up to about $1,500 in extra charges. 1Why did the three Japanese t
22、ourists get stuck? AThere was no way to the island. BTheir GPS had given the wrong information. CTheir GPS was broken during their journey. DTheir car was not made in Japan. 2Why did the tourists abandon their car? ASome onlookers went to save them. BThey got stuck in the mud. CThere came the tide.
23、DThey managed to travel around 500 metres. 3How did these Japanese students get back? AThey had to walk back to their living place. BThey had to repair their GPS and drove back. CThey had to turn to passengers on boats and ferries. DThey had to take a lift from the tow truck driver. 4What can we kno
24、w from the passage? AThe car was left where it was trapped. BThe passengers saved these students in the end. CMr Tomonari got very down after the journey. DNo money has to be paid thanks to insurance. B People who like traveling have their reasons. They believe that traveling can help them expand th

They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities. But those who dislike traveling also have some reasons. Traveli
26、ng, in my opinion, does more good than harm. Most importantly, it broadens (使扩大) our mind. We can get in touch with other civilizations (文明), cultures, customs and ideas. Through history, most people traveled because of necessity (必要性)not for pleasure. People traveled just in order to remain alive.
27、They searched for food to eat or places to live in. They sometimes ran away from enemies. This is not to say that no one ever traveled just for fun of it. In ancient times, for example, rich Romans traveled all the ways to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals. Of course, some peop
28、le decided to travel just out of curiosity (好奇心). They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon (地平线). Also business travel has been going on for centuries. Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures. So, trave

44、or Thai food? Indian or Chinese? American or Turkish? I dont need to travel around the world; all these choices are available in a typical inner city in Australia. Australian food has many different cultural influences. Over the past century, people from many countries have come to Australia. These
45、migrants (移民) have contributed to the melting pot that is Australian food. “Whether youre after modern, traditional or exotic flavors, Australias eclectic dining scene offers a wide range of the worlds great cuisines (菜肴)，” the Visit Victoria website noted. Some Australian families may restrict thei
