Know what's going to be underfoot. 3. . On a hike, you might encounter all different types of land, and the climbing is going to be dangerous or stable.

答案： 1. C 根据下文的and define how many miles the hike covers before departure可知，要先确定远足的里程数。C项(查看涉及的总距离)引起下文，符合语境。该项中的total distance呼应下文的how many miles。
2. D 根据上文的“You can just walk as far down a trail as you want, and then turn back when you're ready.”可知，你可以想走多远就走多远；空后提到确保你能够到达瀑布或者矗立的石头那里，由此可知，设空处应是与上文构成转折关系，提到例外的情况。D项(但如果有你希望看到的地标)承上启下，符合语境。该项中的a landmark呼应下文的a waterfall or standing stone。
3. E 上文提出要弄清楚脚下的路是什么样的，E项(它可以帮助你决定是穿登山鞋还是穿靴子)承接上文，说明这样做的意义，符合语境。该项中的It指代上文内容。
4. G 上文的“So do research and understand what type of terrain you're likely to encounter... from skills to equipment.”介绍了出发前要做的调查和准备工作，G项(在没有进行上述调查之前，不要匆忙开始旅程)再次强调这些工作的意义，该项中的the investigations above指代上文内容。故选G项。
5. F 结合空后的逗号可知，设空处应是一个从句。下文提到沿途看到的东西是选择某条徒步路线而非另一条的一个重要原因，设空处应与徒步路线的选择有关。F项(虽然并不是所有的徒步旅行都能带你领略绝美的风景)与下文构成转折关系，符合语境。
