A
The buses at the Uluru Sunset Viewing Area were parked in rows. Guides set up tables with drinks and snacks. “Ten minutes to go! Are we ready?” our guide asked.
“Five minutes，everyone! Got your cameras?”
Then，the sun started to set.
People from different countries—America，Britain，and France—all watched as the big rock turned bright red. Many took pictures in front of it，with different poses(姿势).
After the sun went down，we got back on the bus. The guide smiled，“That was a pretty good sunset! But I've seen better ones.” Behind me，Adam，a student from England，put his earphones back in. “Well，that's enough of that rock，” he said.
I was tired. We woke up at five in the morning and drove over 100 miles to see the sunset at Uluru. Now，I felt a little empty. Why was this rock so special? Why did we come all this way? Maybe my sons would always remember this moment. But no. They had even missed it! They were busy eating at another tour group's table because they had better chips.
Nowadays，people can buy almost everything. But new things soon become old，and people get bored. So，they start travelling to find “special experiences”. Many people buy books like 1,000 Places to See Before You Die and mark the places they have visited.
But famous sights are never the best part of a trip. Sometimes，they feel like a duty，like visiting a boring relative. The more I travel，the more I feel that the real beauty of a place is in small everyday details，not in famous buildings or scenery. So，throw your books away and forget about the checklists—there are surely more than 1,000 wonders in the world.
1. What did the people at the Uluru Sunset Viewing Area do?
A. They danced around the rock.
B. They took pictures of the sunset.

A. The guide was not friendly.
B. He didn't have any drinks or snacks.
C. The sunset was not beautiful at all.
D. People didn't really care about the sunset.
3. What does the underlined part “visiting a boring relative” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Having a tiring trip.
B. Reading a travel book.
C. Seeing a famous sight.
D. Meeting a family member.
4. Which is the writer's opinion about travel?
A. The beauty of a place is in small details.

C. The best part is visiting famous places.
D. You should visit at least 1,000 places.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，讲述了作者在乌鲁鲁日落观景台的旅行经历，以及对旅行的感悟，认为旅行真正的美在于日常的小细节而非著名景点。
1. B 解析：细节理解题。根据“Many took pictures in front of it, with different poses.”可知，人们在乌鲁鲁日落观景台拍日落的照片，故选 B。
2. D 解析：推理判断题。根据“They were busy eating at another tour group's table because they had better chips.”可知，人们忙着吃更好的薯条，没有真正在意日落，所以作者感到有点失落，故选 D。
3. C 解析：句意理解题。根据“But famous sights are never the best part of a trip. Sometimes, they feel like a duty, like visiting a boring relative.”可知，此处是把参观著名景点比作拜访无聊的亲戚，所以“visiting a boring relative”意思是参观著名景点，故选 C。
4. A 解析：观点态度题。根据“The more I travel, the more I feel that the real beauty of a place is in small everyday details”可知，作者认为一个地方真正的美在于日常的小细节，故选 A。
