1.

根據(jù)TipsforVisitors部分Bepreparedtobargainwiththesellers...（準(zhǔn)備好與賣主討價(jià)還價(jià)......）可知，書展上圖書可以討價(jià)還價(jià)，因此游客可以買到打折的書。

2.

根據(jù)OtherUsefulInformationforVisitors部分Thefairiswheelchairaccessible.（書展是輪椅無障礙的。）可知，書展對(duì)殘疾人友好。

3.

本文是一則書展介紹，包括時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)、游覽建議和交通方式，旨在向讀者宣傳該書展。24~27.【答案】B、B、C、D【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文，主要講述了靛藍(lán)工藝在泰國Phrae地區(qū)的復(fù)興和發(fā)展，特別是通過AuntieNgeam和她的學(xué)生們的努力，將傳統(tǒng)技藝與現(xiàn)代設(shè)計(jì)結(jié)合，推動(dòng)了當(dāng)?shù)氐逅{(lán)產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展，并吸引了國內(nèi)外游客。

1.

根據(jù)第二段AuntieNgeam所說的IstartedthinkingabouthowIcouldstandout（我開始思考怎樣才能脫穎而出）以及Itriedusingindigototie-dye（扎染）modernclothes.（我嘗試用靛藍(lán)扎染現(xiàn)代服裝。）可知，AuntieNgeam開創(chuàng)了靛藍(lán)扎染衣服。

2.

根據(jù)第四段Withtheincreasingacceptanceofindigocraftsmanship（隨著靛藍(lán)工藝越來越被接受）和BanmatjaiIndigoWorkshopisoneofsuchgrowingbusinesses（Banmatjai靛藍(lán)作坊就是這樣一家成長中的企業(yè)）可推知，靛藍(lán)企業(yè)現(xiàn)在較為普遍，故劃線詞ubiquitous意為“普遍存在的”，與Widespread“普遍的”詞義最為接近。

3.

根據(jù)最后一段Boyd所說的allweneedtodoismakeitshinebrightersopeoplecanseeit（我們需要做的就是讓它更加明亮，這樣人們就能看到它）可推知，靛藍(lán)產(chǎn)業(yè)值得進(jìn)一步推廣。

4.

通讀全文可知，本文主要講述了靛藍(lán)工藝在泰國Phrae地區(qū)的復(fù)興和發(fā)展，特別是通過AuntieNgeam和她的學(xué)生們的努力，將傳統(tǒng)技藝與現(xiàn)代設(shè)計(jì)結(jié)合，推動(dòng)了當(dāng)?shù)氐逅{(lán)產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展，并吸引了國內(nèi)外游客，即介紹了靛藍(lán)工藝的傳承、創(chuàng)新和流行，故D選項(xiàng)“從傳統(tǒng)到趨勢(shì)：靛藍(lán)產(chǎn)業(yè)”中tradition和trend兩個(gè)詞能夠概括全文。28~31.【答案】D、A、B、C【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文，主要講述了生態(tài)導(dǎo)游ReneHeidt通過參與喬治亞大學(xué)的CARE認(rèn)證項(xiàng)目，提升了她的生態(tài)旅游服務(wù)質(zhì)量和環(huán)保意識(shí)，以更負(fù)責(zé)任的方式向游客介紹喬治亞海岸的自然美景和生態(tài)保護(hù)的重要性。

1.

由文章第二段“Theprogramoffersup-to-dateeducationalmaterialandtrainingtoecotourguidesandprovidescertificationthatconfirmstheirdevotiontopreservingthehabitats."（該計(jì)劃為生態(tài)導(dǎo)游提供最新的教育材料和培訓(xùn)，并提供認(rèn)證，以確認(rèn)他們對(duì)保護(hù)棲息地的貢獻(xiàn)。）可知，CARE認(rèn)證項(xiàng)目是為了使生態(tài)導(dǎo)游取得資格以及認(rèn)可。故選D。

2.

由文章第三段“Now,whenHeidtgivesboatingtours,sherowswithalighttouch,movingalmostsilentlyacrossthewater.Whenshesharesfactsaboutwildlifewithherguests,shedoesn?tspeaklouderthanwhispers.Actually,it?saskillHeidtmusthaveperfectedinherpreviouscareer.“TheprogramchangesthewayIgivetours.Ithelpsmetobemoremindfulofaboat?sinfluenceontheverythingwearetryingtoteachpeopleabout.”(現(xiàn)在，當(dāng)海特帶領(lǐng)游客劃船時(shí)，她會(huì)輕輕劃槳，幾乎無聲無息地劃過水面。當(dāng)她與客人分享有關(guān)野生動(dòng)物的事實(shí)時(shí)，她說話的聲音并不比耳語大。事實(shí)上，這是海蒂在她以前的職業(yè)生涯中磨練出來的技能?！斑@個(gè)項(xiàng)目改變了我?guī)в慰偷姆绞健Ｋ鼛椭腋幼⒁獾酱瑢?duì)我們?cè)噲D教給人們的東西的影響。)可知，Heidt在帶領(lǐng)游客游覽時(shí)小心翼翼，尤為當(dāng)心游覽過程中給生態(tài)環(huán)境帶來的影響，可以推斷CARE項(xiàng)目讓導(dǎo)游和游客在旅行過程中盡可能降低對(duì)生態(tài)環(huán)境的影響。故選A。

3.

由文章第三段“TheprogramchangesthewayIgivetours.Ithelpsmetobemoremindfulofaboat?sinfluenceontheverythingwearetryingtoteachpeopleabout.”(這個(gè)項(xiàng)目改變了我?guī)в慰偷姆绞?。它幫助我更加注意到船?duì)我們?cè)噲D教給人們的東西的影響。)可知，CAREprogram改變了Heidt的導(dǎo)游方式，幫助她更加注重對(duì)海岸帶的保護(hù)，以及文章最后一段，Heidt也認(rèn)為海岸帶需要也值得保護(hù)，可知她對(duì)于該項(xiàng)目是支持的態(tài)度。故選B。

4.

根據(jù)文章第二段Butmorerecently,theUniversityofGeorgia?sCoastalAwarenessandResponsibleEcotourism(CARE)certification（認(rèn)證）programhasbeendesignedtosupportecotourguideslikeHeidt,helpingimprovetheinformationtheysharewithtourists.（但是最近，佐治亞大學(xué)的海岸意識(shí)和負(fù)責(zé)任的生態(tài)旅游認(rèn)證（CARE）項(xiàng)目被設(shè)計(jì)用來支持像Heidt這樣的生態(tài)導(dǎo)游，幫助他們改善與游客分享的信息。）以及最后一段it?simportanttoshareitsbeautywithotherstohelpthemrealizethatitisworthprotecting.”（與他人分享它的美麗，幫助他們意識(shí)到它值得保護(hù)，這一點(diǎn)很重要?！保┛芍?，本文介紹佐治亞州立大學(xué)CARE項(xiàng)目提升了導(dǎo)游的生態(tài)旅游服務(wù)質(zhì)量和環(huán)保意識(shí)，以更負(fù)責(zé)任的方式向游客介紹喬治亞海岸的自然美景和生態(tài)保護(hù)的重要性，為生態(tài)環(huán)境的保護(hù)提供支持。C項(xiàng)“支持喬治亞的生態(tài)旅游”，符合題意。故選C。32~35.【答案】B、A、A、C【文章大意】本文是說明文，主要討論了盡管電子支付日益普及，紙質(zhì)支票因其歷史和情感價(jià)值仍被一些企業(yè)和個(gè)人所偏好，但也意識(shí)到其終將被時(shí)代淘汰的趨勢(shì)這一現(xiàn)象。
