四、(2025·扬州市江都区期中)(核心素养·学习能力)阅读理解。
VR 旅行
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 healthcare, and now the travel industry is starting to see how useful it can be.
The 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. The VR travel can take people to places that are difficult to reach or dangerous to visit, like the top of Mount Qomolangma or the ocean floor.
Also, the 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, the 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 the VR travel may replace(替代) the traditional travel one day.
Even with these problems, the future of the VR travel is exciting. The travel industry is starting to welcome VR. As the technology improves, the 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.
