Question

Calvin Gillian didn’t believe that Norway was the place for an adventurous holiday. However, some friends told him to go there and he loved it.

“I’m an extreme-sports maniac. I’ve traveled to many different countries, but I didn’t expect Norway to be a good place for an extreme holiday. Tourists usually visit Norway because of its old Viking history or to go fishing and boating in the famous fjords(峡湾) to enjoy a relaxing holiday, or to go climbing to enjoy the beauty of nature. But I didn’t go for fishing; I wanted adventure.

“Skiing is the best thing you can do in Norway. Svartisen, the Black Ice glacier(冰川）, is wonderful. The ice is not the usual white but a deep blue color, like the sea. However, you have to wear special clothes, because skiing on a million-year-old glacier can be very dangerous.”

“Then, there is Hunderfossen Family Park for Toll Park. You can go water skiing and ice skating. It is certainly a beautiful place but it is more expensive than visiting other parts of Norway.

“I also visited the Homenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo. The view from the top of the ski jump was wonderful and the the ski museum was very interesting. I wanted to try a jump but unfortunately, it’s only for professional ski-jumpers. Anyway, I was very tired and I needed a break, so I went back to my hotel and got some sleep.

“Next year, I am going to take my girlfriend to Norway, too. She is having her holiday in Australia now and she wants to have a different type of adventure for next year.”

根据①②③总结概括文章☞D选项A Norwegian Adventure

【解析】本文主要讲了挪威是一个假日冒险的好地方，这里还介绍了作者去的几个充满冒险性的地方。

1.C 推理判断题。根据文中最后一段“Next year, I am going to take my girlfriend to Norway, too. She is having her holiday in Australia now and she wants to have a different type of adventure for next year.”可知，作者打算明年带女友去挪威，说明作者对自己在挪威的旅行很满意。故选C。

2.A 推理判断题。根据文中第二段But I didn’t go for fishing; I wanted adventure.可知，作者喜欢极限运动，所以他对极限运动充满兴趣。故画线部分的意思是对某件事情充满兴趣的人。故选A。

3.D 细节理解题。根据文中“Skiing is the best thing you can do in Norway.可知，作者在挪威滑冰了。故选D。

4.D 主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了挪威是假日冒险的好地方。故选D。

【名师点睛】

主旨大意主要分为两大类：

（1）标题类。文章标题可以是单词，短语，也可以是句子，它的特点是：短小精悍，多为一短语；涵盖性强，一般要求能覆盖全文，其确定的范围要恰当，既不能太大，也不能太小；精确性强，不能随意改变语言表意的程度及色彩。

（2）主旨类。概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。此时，要注意一些转折词，如but, yet, however, although, in spite of, by contrast, on the contrary等。当文章中表示相反的观点时，往往用到这些词。答题时要弄清哪个是作者的观点，排除迷惑性信息，准确归纳主旨大意。例如本文第4小题，属于（1）标题类。答案需要理解文章后归纳文章中心。

【答案定位】根据第一段中的Calvin Gillian didn’t believe that Norway was the place for an adventurous holiday.第二段中的but I didn’t expect Norway to be a good place for an extreme holiday.最后一段中的“Next year, I am going to take my girlfriend to Norway, too. She is having her holiday in Australia now and she wants to have a different type of adventure for next year.”可知，本文主要讲了挪威是一个冒险的好地方。
