Now many young people are travelling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone. Kristina Wegscheider from California first travelled alone when she was at college and believed that it was something everyone should do at least once in their life. She said, “It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.” Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents. In foreign countries, 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, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that that can make it on their own. Chris decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go travelling. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had travelled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the man. Chris describes travelling alone will make you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. He said, “The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.” As the saying goes, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.” 1.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with? A.Travelling abroad helps people to find new things. B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries. C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend. D.Travelling alone is a necessary experience for everyone. 2.Travelling alone is challenging because ________. A.you have to choose things on your own B.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others C.you can only depend on yourself whatever happens D.it pushes you into the comfort zone 3.What can we know about Chris? A.He started travelling alone at an early age. B.He once was afraid of travelling. C.He used to work as a salesman. D.His website inspires others a lot. 4.What is the best title for the passage? A.Travel Abroad B.Travel Alone C.Travel Light D.Travel Far
