　　(2017·江西高考·D)

　　[1]For those who make journeys across the world，the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages.Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village.Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other，allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.

　　...

　　71．What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?

　　A．Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.

　　B．The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short.

　　C．The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams.

　　D．Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place.

　　【解析】　B。段落大意题。本段的首句就是主题句，后面通过今昔交通方式的对比说明主题“对于喜欢全世界旅游的人来说，现在的旅行速度使得在国家之间的旅行变得就像在村庄之间旅行那样快”。关键词speed，today，distance等表明B项正确，即作者在第一段是想让读者知道“现代旅行的速度使得距离相对缩短了”。
