问题 Why do people leave home to travel according to the passage?
  
People enjoy taking trips. But what are the reasons they leave home? One reason is for education. People travel because they want to broaden their horizons, to learn about other people and other places. They are curious about other cultures. When people are tourists, they get a quick look at different ways of living. Even a short look at another kind of lifestyle is an important lesson. On a trip, a person can learn directly by visiting museums and historic spots. What does a tourist learn who sees the art museums, visits the historic palaces, and other scenic spots in Paris, and shops along the River Seine? He gets a vivid picture—a real life one—of the French people. He learns about their attitudes: how they feel about business, beauty, and history. What about the tourist who goes to Hong Kong? Does he get the same information that he could get from a book? He might read that Hong Kong is crowded, that there is less than 200 square meters of space for each person. But seeing and feeling the lack of space will impress him much more. He might read that there are nearly 200 vehicles for every kilometer of roadway, but the sight of so many vehicles parked along the roadside will be a much more vivid lesson. The tourist to Hong Kong will never forget the contrasts— the straight vertical lines of the tall modern buildings and the moving lines of boats that people live in.

选项 A、It makes our life more interesting.
B、It enables us to acquire first-hand knowledge.
C、It helps develop our personalities.
D、It brings about changes in our lifestyle.

答案B

解析 细节题。文中明确提到“在旅行中,人们可以通过参观博物馆和历史景点,直接地学习”,可知人们可以获得第一手的资料,故选B。A和C项文中没有提及,可予以排除。D具有强干扰性,文中只是说观光者可以在旅行中体验不同的生活方式,没有导致生活方式改变的意思,故排除。
