七、完成圖表。
When most people think about travelling around the world, they would think of going by plane or train and probably never dream of going on foot.
Meet the man who's walking around the world. Alexander Campbell started his journey (旅行) from the Opera House near his hometown in February, 2023. During the four-year hike, he will walk 40,000 km across 30 countries and 4 continents (大洲). Why? Campbell said, "I really like walking."
In one of his online posts, he showed six pairs of shoes he wore out. He also said people along the way gave him home-cooked meals, beer, lemonade and a bed for the night and even invited him for the weddings (婚禮).
Mr Campbell is an experienced walker. He loves hiking and has finished the 800 km Colorado Trail, the 1,600 km Great Himalaya Trail and a 3,750 km hike from the Flinders Ranges to Sydney. And he once walked 74 km in one day.
The trip will raise money to help people who can't see well or at all around the world. He has raised more than $5,500.

答案:1. Walking
文章主要講Alexander Campbell徒步環游世界,“a traveler walking around the world”表示“一個徒步環游世界的旅行者”,用現在分詞作后置定語。
2. part
文中未明確提及完成40000公里旅程的具體比例,但從他已有的徒步經歷和正在進行的旅程來看,是完成了“一部分(part)”。
3. eyesight
根據“The trip will raise money to help people who can't see well or at all around the world.”,“no or poor eyesight”表示“視力不好或失明”。
4. Experiences
后面列舉的是他徒步過程中的經歷,所以填“Experiences”。
5. kindness
從“people along the way gave him home - cooked meals, beer, lemonade and a bed for the night and even invited him for the weddings”可知,人們對他很友好,“show kindness to sb.”表示“對某人表示友好”。
