Question

Want to travel easily? Here are some tips that help you reduce the size of your luggage.

Roll clothes instead of folding them. Many people try to fold their clothes into their little suitcase. 1. It actually makes far more sense to roll your clothes rather than fold them. Starting from the bottom, roll up your clothes into very tightly packed cylinders (圆柱体) which you can stack (堆叠) on top of each other.

Use vacuum bags (真空袋), when possible. 2. Buy some vacuum bags and seal all of your clothes up tightly. Having all of your luggage vacuum sealed will reduce the size of your items greatly. That will allow you to take more of what’s needed.

Always take travel bottles. Even though you are allowed to take full sized bottles in your suitcase, to make sure that you are under the weight allowance, it’s recommended that you still stick to travel-sized bottles. 3. Besides, it will also prevent you from wasting any product. If you do run out of anything while you are on holiday, you can always buy more.

4. If you do need to take a coat, you can wear it on the journey so you don’t have to pack it in your suitcase. Another method you can use is wearing multiple layers (多层衣服) on the journey although this isn’t always the most comfortable.

Research the weather in advance. A great way to prevent packing clothes that you won’t end up wearing is to research what the weather is going to be like where and when you go on holiday. 5. You can know how hot it’s likely going to be, as well as how much rain on average the destination receives each month.

A. It will free up enough room for you.

B. Don’t put any shoes in your suitcase.

C. It will make your suitcase much lighter.

D. Purchase a high and soft-sided suitcase.

E. Wear anything that takes up a lot of room.

F. There are plenty of websites that can predict it.

G. This is not the best way to pack your holiday goods.

【解析】本文是关于旅行的。本文主要讲述一些小贴士可以帮助你减少行李的空间，轻松旅行。

1.Ｇ

考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本空的上句“Roll clothes instead of folding them. Many people try to fold their clothes into their little suitcase（卷衣服而不是叠衣服。许多人试图把衣服叠进他们的小提箱里。）”接着用转折副词actually表示前后的相反，及下句“It actually makes far more sense to roll your clothes rather than fold them.（事实上，把衣服卷起来比叠衣服更有意义。）”分析上句和下句可知，试图把衣服叠在提箱中不是最好的方法，故选G。

2.Ａ

考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本空上句说“当可能的时候使用真空袋”。下句说“买一些真空袋，把你所有的衣服密封起来，会大大减少你放物品的空间，这样你就可带更多的东西”，分析上下文可知，使用真空袋可释放更多的空间，故A符合题意。

3.Ｃ

考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据第四段中“Even though you are allowed to take full sized bottles in your suitcase…it’s recommended that you still stick to travel-sized bottles（即使你可以在手提箱里装非常大的瓶子…建议你还是带旅行适合的瓶子。）”由两种瓶子对比可知，travel-sized bottles比full sized bottles要小些，自然是轻，因此可判断出它会使你的手提箱轻多了。故选C。

4.Ｅ

考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据第5段“If you do need to take a coat, you can wear it on the journey so you don’t have to pack it in your suitcase（如果你需要带一件外套，你可以在旅途中穿上它，这样你就不必把它装在手提箱里了。）”把一件厚衣服穿在身上，让衣服不再占空间，也就是把占空间的衣服穿上，分析七个选项可知E符合题意，故选E。

5.Ｆ

考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据本段的第一句：预先研究天气。防止你少穿衣服的一个很好的方法就是研究一下你去度假的地方的天气。通过对比七个选项可知reseach…in advance,提前预测与predict是同义复现。故选F。

【名师点睛】七选五题型解题技巧

该题型对学生的考察能力总体从两个方面来考察；第一，把握整篇文章的布局和逻辑层次关系。第二把握微观信息间关联性。（即空格前后句间关系。该题型选项大致可分为：

１．主旨概括句（文章整体内容）２．过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。

正确的解题思路分为两步：

(１)首当其冲看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。

(２)精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。如第1 题，通过分析上句和下句从而得出结论。

(３)看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。此外要通过句子的逻辑关系或句子的标点来判断该句在文章的位置。正确选项的特点：复现，包括同义反复，反义反复。比如第5小题，通过对比七个选项可知research…in advance,提前预测predict是同义复现。

错误选项特点：以偏概全，扩大范围，偏离主题。

(４)解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though，However等。如第１小题运用actually表示前后的转折。因果关系如so，because，therefore等。
