Now, young people are grabbing their passports and travel around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go solo.
Kristina Wegscheider, from San Jose in California, US, first traveled unaccompanied when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. "In high school I wouldn’t have felt comfortable doing much of anything on my own, but as I have got older I’ve found that I love traveling on my own, especially in a country where I don’t know the language. " Wegscheider has visited 46 countries spanning all seven continents.
Foreign lands can be tricky to navigate at the best of times. But with no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, they are challenging. This is what drives young people to go solo It is seen as character building, since going solo is a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go backpacking last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had gone solo earlier. "Be it the people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is off your own back and it forces you to grow as a person," said the 30-year-old. "To tackle university or a job with that kind of experience would have been a major bonus to me," he said. Richardson describes traveling alone as like "a shot in the arm," which "unleashed(释放)a better more confident person that was ready to tackle anything."
When did Kristina Wegscheider travel solo for the first time?
选项
A、When she was 30 years old.
B、When she was at college.
C、After she decided to quit her sales job.
D、When she was in her high school.
答案
B
解析
由题干中的Kristina Wegscheider定位至第二段首句。由该句可知,美国加利福尼亚州的Kristina Wegscheider上大学的时候首次进行独自旅行,并认为这种经历每个人一生中至少要有一次,因此答案为B)。题干中的solo是对原文中的unaccompanied的同义转述。
