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."
Why did Chris Richardson take traveling solo as an exciting thing?
选项
A、Because it makes people more confident.
B、Because it is a shot in the arm.
C、Because it is the major bonus for people.
D、Because it forces people to go backpacking.
答案
A
解析
题干中的an exciting thing即文中的a shot in the arm,由此定位至文章末句。该句中的定语从句解释了原因——它使人得到释放,成为一个更加自信的人,从而准备应对任何问题。因此Chris Richardson认为独自旅行令人振奋的原因是它使人们变得更自信,故答案为A)。
