VR technology(虚拟现实技术)has been around for many years，but it is only in recent years that most people can use it. The technology has been used by many industries(产业)，from computer games to health care，and now the travel industry is starting to see how useful it can be.
VR travel allows(允许)people to visit places without leaving their homes. This helps to save time and money. With VR，travellers can enjoy a full view of the places they visit. They can also interact(互动)with the environment，walk around and even touch things. VR travel can take people to places that are difficult to reach or dangerous to visit，like the top of Mount Everest or the ocean floor.
Also，VR travel can be used in schools，allowing students to visit and study places of interest，and learn about different cultures. It can also be used when people want to check what a place offers before they decide to book a trip.
However，VR travel is still in an early period of growth，and there are problems that need to be solved. The technology costs too much，and not everyone has enough money to buy a pair of VR glasses. Moreover，the VR experience changes with the tools you have. The better tools you use，the more wonderful experiences you will get. There is also a worry that VR travel may replace(替代)traditional travel one day.
Even with these problems，the future of VR travel is exciting. The travel industry is starting to welcome VR，and as the technology improves，VR travel may become a popular way to go around the world，and it will play an important role in how people learn about the world.

【分析】
这是一篇说明文类阅读理解，解题时可以按照不同题型的对应方法逐个突破：
1. 做第34题代词指代题时，直接定位划线词的前一句，找到它指代的具体行为，对比选项排除不符合逻辑的内容即可。
2. 第35题是写作手法题，梳理作者介绍VR旅行优点的段落，判断作者使用的论证方式，匹配对应选项。
3. 第36题细节理解题，把每个选项都回原文定位找对应表述，和原文内容一致的就是正确答案，和原文矛盾的直接排除。
4. 第37题作者态度题，定位到最后一段描述VR旅行未来的内容，从作者的用词判断他的态度倾向。
【解析】
34. 定位到第二段划线词的前一句“VR travel allows people to visit places without leaving their homes.”，可知VR旅行让人们足不出户就能游览景点，这个行为能帮人们节省时间和金钱，因此This指代的是在家进行VR旅行这件事，排除范围过大的A选项、和语境无关的B选项、不符合逻辑的D选项，选C。
35. 通读第二、三段介绍VR旅行优点的内容，作者先后列举了VR旅行能省时间省钱、可抵达珠峰顶/海底等特殊地点、可在学校供学生使用、出行前预览景点等多个具体实例来介绍它的优势，是用举例子的方式展开说明的，文中没有出现制作图表、使用数字、提问的写作手法，选B。
36. 逐一核对选项：A选项对应原文第三段开头“Also，VR travel can be used in schools，allowing students to visit and study places of interest”，表述正确；B选项和最后一段提到VR旅行未来会流行的内容矛盾；C选项和第四段“not everyone has enough money to buy a pair of VR glasses”矛盾；D选项提到的VR旅行一定会替代传统旅行只是部分人的担忧，并非确定会发生的事实，和原文内容矛盾，选A。
37. 从最后一段作者的表述“Even with these problems，the future of VR travel is exciting”以及“VR travel may become a popular way to go around the world，and it will play an important role in how people learn about the world”可以看出，作者认为VR旅行的未来发展前景很好，持充满希望的态度，排除生气、不确定、担忧的错误选项，选D。
