With over 2.4 millon visitors every year，Cinque Terre is one of the mostvisited regions in Italy. Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candycolored fishing villages of Riomaggiore，Manarola，Corniglia，Vernazza，and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightlyshining Ligurian Sea. Whether you're visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks，these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.
★Take a scenic hike.
It's easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro. It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea，architecture and vineyards(葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across，with short breaks，but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.
★Eat seafood in a cone(锥形蛋卷筒)．
Dessert lovers might think that Italian icecream is the best thing to be served in a cone but makes room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.
★Get on a boat.
If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and easiest way is to jump on the public ferry from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. It's far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare.
★Take the train.
Cinque Terre's train system is one of the most scenic in Europe. The highspeed train runs through each of the five villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.
这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了里奥马吉奥尔、马纳罗拉、科尔尼利亚、韦尔纳扎和蒙特罗索五个渔村的特点以及到这里旅游的一些方式。
21．What is special about the five candycolored fishing villages?
A．Their special location. B．Their long history.
C．Their delicious foods. D．Their friendly villagers.
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Cinque Terre is truly special. The five candycolored fishing villages of Riomaggiore，Manarola，Corniglia，Vernazza，and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightlyshining Ligurian Sea”可知，五渔村真的很特别。里奥马吉奥尔、马纳罗拉、科尔尼利亚、韦尔纳扎和蒙特罗索等五个渔村被建在利古里亚海边的悬崖上。由此可知，五个渔村的特殊之处在于它们的特殊位置。故A选项正确。
22．What is the favorite food for the dessert lovers in the five villages?
A．Italian noodles. B．Italian icecream.
C．Italian wines. D．Seafood cones.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Dessert lovers might think that Italian icecream is the best thing to be served in a cone but makes room for seafood cones as well”可知，喜欢吃甜点的人可能会认为装在圆锥形蛋卷筒里的意大利冰激凌是最好的食物，但是它也要为海鲜锥形蛋卷筒(seafood cones)让路。这说明seafood cones更受甜品爱好者们的喜爱。故D选项正确。
23．What is the best way to enjoy the beautiful scenery and delicious food?
A．Taking a private ferry to the villages.
B．Walking with short breaks on the coast.
C．Taking a scenic hike along the coastal path.
D．Taking the train running through the villages.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。文章一共介绍了三种方式：take a scenic hike，get on a boat，take the train。根据第二段中的“It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea，architecture and vineyards (葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across，with short breaks，but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming”可知，徒步观光旅游不仅可以欣赏美丽的景色而且还可以随时停下来享受美食。根据倒数第二段中的“It's far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, 和Monterosso al Mare”可知，乘坐私人游轮比乘坐公共游轮更放松。游轮从Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vernazza, and Monterosso al Mare的码头出发，而不是到达这几个村子。故可排除A选项。最后一段提到的乘火车旅行，它不能随时停靠，不能和徒步观光相比。故综上，徒步观光是最好的方式。故C选项正确。
