Question

【題目】閱讀理解
You've flown halfway around the world; you've sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of; so what on earth is there to do here? You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand.
It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee. By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out, it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland.
Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin, about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok, down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand. Not many tourists find this place，and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along.
There's an apparent laziness that surrounds you here. It's what this place offers, and it，s free of charge. The small waves that tap the shoreline seem to slow everything down. You settle into your beach chair in preparation for a long rest. You sit there and watch the sea.
It's early afternoon, so the cook comes out and asks what you'd like to eat this evening. Before long he's rushed off to the market to buy the ingredients for whatever it was that you ordered---every meal fresh and to order. No menu here.
There is no poolside noise here but just that wonderfully warm, clear blue sea. There9 s no street noise. The only sounds are the murmurs of nature.For now you just count your blessings (福祉)，listing them in the sand with your toe (腳趾) You don't have to worry about being late for work. You don't have to do anything.
The beach to your right stretches off to the horizon (地平線)，slowly narrowing to nothingness only to re-emerge again on your left, now steadily widening until it covers the chair beneath you. Sand to your left and sand to your right; it's unbroken, endless. No start, no end, just sand, sun,and peace. Step off it, and you re-enter the world of traffic, stress, work，and hurry.
Normally you，re the type who can，t sit still for more than ten minutes, but you're on Huaplee Lazy Beach now and, in the right frame of mind, it stretches all the way around theworld.
“How could it take me so long to find it?” you wonder.

【解析】這是一篇記敘文，講述在泰國(guó)海灣西部的一個(gè)叫Huaplee沙灘小島上旅游生活的所感所想。
（1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out, it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland ”可知找到地方花費(fèi)的時(shí)間很多也很找到，故D正確。
（2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第五段中的“No menu here.”可知這兒最特別的就是沒(méi)有菜單，故A正確。
（3）考查判斷推理。根據(jù)第七段中的“You don't have to worry about being late for work. You don't have to do anything.”可推斷出享受的最好方法就是不要去想和做日常的事情，故B正確。
（4）考查判斷推理。根據(jù)第七、八、九三段的內(nèi)容來(lái)看作者對(duì)于小島上的生活是推崇備至，所以更希望是早就在這兒了，故D正確。
