【1題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段關(guān)鍵句“Whether you are a student, professional or a retiree (退休者), anyone is welcome to make a difference and contribute to protecting some of the most beautiful islands in the world.”（無(wú)論你是學(xué)生、專業(yè)人士還是退休人員，歡迎任何人為保護(hù)世界上一些最美麗的島嶼做出貢獻(xiàn)。）可知，學(xué)生、專業(yè)人士和退休人員都可以參加這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)，再結(jié)合第一段下面報(bào)名要求中的“Requirement: General level of fitness”（要求：正常的健康水平）和“Age: 18+”（年齡: 18歲以上）可知，報(bào)名人員要身體健康并且年齡超過(guò)18歲，瀏覽選項(xiàng)，“A retired maths teacher.”是“一名退休的數(shù)學(xué)老師”，符合要求，可以報(bào)名參加這個(gè)保護(hù)志愿者項(xiàng)目，“A primary school student.”是“一個(gè)小學(xué)生”，年齡不符合，“A scientist with heart disease.”（一個(gè)患有心臟病的科學(xué)家）和“A businessman in a wheelchair.”（一個(gè)坐輪椅的商人）健康狀況不符合，故排除。故選A項(xiàng)。
【2題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“What will I be doing?”部分關(guān)鍵句“Tree planting”（植樹(shù)）和“Seed collection”（收集種子）可知，在這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)中，你可以植樹(shù)，還可以收集種子，由此可知，在志愿者之旅中，你能收集種子并種植樹(shù)木，A項(xiàng)中的“go shopping”文中沒(méi)有提到，B項(xiàng)中的“go fishing”文中沒(méi)有提到，C項(xiàng)中的“Protect weeds”文中沒(méi)有提到，故排除。故選D項(xiàng)。
【3題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段關(guān)鍵句“Choose a suitable city and travel out to your conservation (保護(hù)) site to work with local people!”（選擇一個(gè)合適的城市，旅行去你的保護(hù)區(qū)與當(dāng)?shù)厝艘黄鸸ぷ鳎。┛芍，本文主要是征集志愿者去其他城市參與當(dāng)?shù)氐谋Ｗo(hù)工作，由此可推斷出，這篇文章可能出自于與旅行相關(guān)的東西，“A travel magazine”意為“一本旅游雜志”，符合文章出處。故選B項(xiàng)。
