17、访者不可能只是村民或者学生，故排除A、C两项；从原文中看不出来访者都是外国人，所以不能选B。所以当地人来玩的可能性最大，选D项。3A.shortest BbusiestClongest Dbiggest答案：A解析：周末和学校假期游客多，等候的时间肯定要长，而这里特别指出了要回避这两个时间，为的是等候的时间短一些。4A.leave BplanCarrive Dbook答案：C解析：该部分提示游客来访时尽量来得早点儿，避免在好景点发生游客拥挤现象。leave意为“离开”；plan意为“计划”；book意为“预定”，都不符合句意，故排除A、B、D三项。5A.after BuntilCpast Db
18、efore答案：D解析：该题逻辑性强，为了避开拥挤的时间段，有足够的时间自己游玩，应该提前一个小时到达，故选before。6A.avoid BbuildCbreak Dcombine答案：B解析：提前一小时到达游乐园，是为了避免在最受欢迎的景点遇到拥挤。before crowds build意为“在游客扎堆现象形成前”。avoid意为“回避”；break意为“破裂”；combine意为“结合；使联合”。均与句子意思不符，也不符合前面的逻辑。7A.reserve BkeepCcopy Dprint答案：D解析：这里指迪士尼乐园有网上售票，为了防止做假，应该是不允许游客在自己家里打印。reserv
19、e意为“储备”；keep意为“保存”；copy意为“复制”；print意为“打印”。故选D。8A.in advance Bin caseCin order Din turn答案：A解析：订好的票需要邮寄给你，这需要一定的时间，所以要尽可能提前(in advance)预订。in case意为“万一”；in order意为“有条理”；in turn意为“轮流”，三项均不合句意。9A.ought to BmustCwill Dmay答案：D解析：此处需要一个情态动词，意思吻合最关键，这里表示除了网上购票外，还“可以”通过其他途径购票，所以选may最合适。ought to意为“应该”；must意为“必
20、须”；will意为“将要”，都不符合句子要求。10A.opened BreopenedCclosed Dreduced答案：B解析：根据下文“经过两年维修和重建”来看，此处需要“重新营业”这个意思，故用reopened。11A.possibilities BchangesCdevelopments Deffects答案：D解析：possibility意为“可能性”；change意为“变化”；development意为“进展；发展”，三个单词在和show搭配时均不能体现维修的目的。此处谈Space Mountain维修两年的目的是为了提升show effects“展览的效果，”即它的可参观性。1
21、2A.when BsinceCas Dbecause of答案：C解析：此处建议带小朋友的游客尽量在早晨去Fantasyland，后面是提出该建议的理由，因为是比较明显的理由，所以用as。because of不能接句子，when引导时间状语从句，since表示原因时，原因应是对方已知的，通常意为“既然”，位于句首。13A.rows BwaitsCplaces Dpassages答案：B解析：此处指这个景点客容量较小，很容易出现游客扎堆现象，这样就很可能会等很长时间，所以用wait(名词，表示“等待的时间”)。14A.If not BIn a wordCAs a result DWhats mo
22、re答案：A解析：此处需要一承上启下的转折，if not意为“如果不”，指如果不参观前面的景点，那么就。其他选项起不到此作用，in a word意为“总而言之”；as a result意为“结果”；whats more意为“而且”。15A.where BthatChow Dwhen答案：D解析：where引导地点状语从句；how一般表方式；that无实际意义，只起连接作用。这里是时间状语从句，在刚开门时，直奔Adventureland and New Orleans Square。阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Yangshuo，ChinaIt was rain
