22、One night in March, five years ago, during happy hour at a bar in my hometown, I made a surprise announcement to my friends: I was going to shut down my law practice and attempt to travel around the globe in a year. What’s more, I would do it without taking any flights or making a single advance reservation of any kind. My announcement drew mixed reactions from my friends. Some offered support and encouragement, while others were more doubtful.
Once I’d said the words, there was no turning back. It took months to shut down my law practice and get things in order. Once I set off on my adventure in October 2016, I found that travelling without using planes was not easy. Trying to circle the globe in 16 months (it took me a bit longer than the initial 12 months I planned) made it even tougher. Even so, travelling overland was the most awe-inspiring way to truly understand the immensity of our wonderful planet.
I took three consecutive overnight buses to travel 3,000 km through Argentina, from Ushuaia, the world’s southernmost city, to the capital Buenos Aires. I would look out the windows for hours on end at the completely unspoiled plains, as if humans had never touched it.
It took seven consecutive days and nights on trains to get from Moscow to Beijing, each day spent gazing out the windows for hours as the West Siberian Plain swept by. Sometimes, I wouldn’t see a village or a human being for 10 hours. Later in my journey, it took 22 days on a cargo freighter to get from New Zealand through the Panama Canal and back to Philadelphia, to finish my round-the-world adventure.
It turned out that travelling with no reservations was far less difficult than I had imagined. Pulling into a city on a bus with a backpack, looking in a guidebook for a few suggestions of accommodations, and then finding an empty room was never much of a problem anywhere. It also kept me flexible and open about all my travel plans, which is advice I give everyone who asks—plan far less than you think you should.

①Moscow ②Philadelphia ③New Zealand ④Ushuaia ⑤Beijing ⑥Buenos
A．⑤④①⑥③②
B．④⑥①⑤③②
C．④⑤①⑥③②

24、We've explored London thoroughly and come away with quite a few lessons. Here are our top tips for travel in London.
☆Visiting Buckingham Palace
Together with Big Ben, Buckingham Palace is London's most symbolic landmark. This grand building is where Queen Elizabeth hosts banquets (宴会) and meets heads of state. The palace is only open during the summer. If you're visiting when the palace isn’t available to tour, go to see the Changing of the Guard and take a tour of the Royal Mews, the Queen's stables (马厩) that hold her carriage collection.
☆Drinking afternoon tea
The British have taken a simple tea break and turned it into an impressive ceremony, complete with patterned china, plates of finger sandwiches and cakes. When making a reservation, remember that afternoon tea isn't a snack but a full meal, and if you do it right, you'll be full. The smart move is to skip lunch and maybe even dinner.
☆Hitting the London Eye
Standing near centuries-old buildings, the London Eye whirls (旋转) over the left bank of the Thames, overlooking the London Bridge and the Shard to the west. The experience is definitely worth the price of admission, especially on a clear day. But buy your tickets in advance online and go first thing in the morning. Crowds peak between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., so get your breakfast to go and your line will be much shorter.
【1】Which activity is particular for visitors to Buckingham Palace in summer?
A．Get around the grand building.
B．Enjoy the view of Big Ben.
C．Watch the Changing of the Guard.
D．Take a tour of the Royal Mews.
【2】What is suggested if you want to enjoy afternoon tea in London?
A．Dressing up for the ceremony.
B．Booking online in advance.
C．Preparing patterned china for it.
D．Going with an empty stomach.
【3】What do we know about the London Eye according to the text?
A．It is a centuries-old landmark.
B．London Bridge is to the east of it.
C．It’s better to visit it in the afternoon.
D．Ticket booking is available online.
