C(2025·扬州市江都区期中)
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, from computer games to health care, and now the travel industry is starting to see how useful it can be.
VR travel allows 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. 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】
10题是词义猜测题，需定位到第二段划线词“This”所在句，根据代词指代的就近原则，往前找指代内容，第二段首句提到“VR travel allows people to visit places without leaving their homes”，紧接着说“This helps to save time and money”，可知“This”指代的是“在家进行的VR旅游”，对应选项C；11题问作者阐述VR旅游优点的方式，梳理文章结构可知，作者介绍优点时列举了游戏、医疗、旅游、学校应用等多个例子，属于举例子的说明方式，选B；12题是细节理解题，需逐一核对选项与原文：A选项对应第三段“VR travel can be used in schools”，表述正确；B选项与最后一段“future of VR travel is exciting”矛盾；C选项与第四段“not everyone has enough money to buy a pair of VR glasses”矛盾；D选项与第四段“there is also a worry that VR travel may replace traditional travel”（是担忧而非确定）矛盾，故选A；13题是观点态度题，定位到最后一段“Even with these problems, the future of VR travel is exciting”，可知作者对VR旅游的未来充满希望，选D。
