【題目】One of the main decisions you must make when traveling is deciding where to stay. A good place to stay can often make a holiday. Whether you are looking for a classy hotel or a night under the stars, we can guide you through your different options.

Bed and Breakfast

An English invention, bed and breakfasts offer exactly what they suggest, a bed for the night and breakfast in the morning. People who hate the anonymity of hotels but want more luxury than a hostel often choose to stay at bed and breakfasts. “B&B’s”, usually someone’s private home, are often found in the countryside.

Hostels

For those traveling on a tight budget, hostels are the best accommodation option. Informal places usually with a friendly youthful vibe(氛圍), they offer dormitory beds for rent. Bathrooms are usually down the hall.

Remember to check reviews by previous guests online before you book your hostel.

Couch Surfing

An unusual but interesting option, couch surfing is a growing trend among young internationals. The idea is that you become a member of the online couch-surfing community (www. couchsurfing. com) and then when you travel, look up other members in that country and ask to stay on their couch (沙發(fā)). Most hosts will suggest sightseeing trips and take you out in the evening, making it a great way to see things that aren’t in your guidebook. And remember, it may be free but don’t forget to offer to buy your host a drink or dinner.

Camping

Sleeping under the stars! For budget travelers staying at camping grounds is the cheapest way to travel. The drawback is that you have to carry a tent with you. Camping grounds can be found across Europe, America and Australia. However, if you intend on camping in busy cities, check first where the nearest campsite is. More often than not, they are on the outskirts, which can mean lengthy bus rides into town when you want to eat or see the sights.

【1】Hostels are popular among budget travelers because they provide _____.

A. a friendly atmosphere

B. dormitory beds for sale

C. reviews by previous guests

D. beds and bathrooms as well

【2】Which of the following information is true?

A. The host will charge you for sightseeing

B. You can have a couch to sleep on when camping.

C. If you choose couch surfing, you can explore the nightlife there

D. You don’t have to pay any money living in hostels

【3】The disadvantage of camping is that you have to ______.

A. sleep in the open air

B. take some extra articles

C. camp near big cities for safety

D. take a long distance bus to the campsites

【答案】

【1】A

【2】C

【3】B

【解析】

試題分析：出門旅游，住宿是一大問題。本文為手頭緊張的出門旅游者介紹了四種住宿方式：住宿兼次日早餐的旅館，青年宿舍，睡沙發(fā)旅行和露宿，并介紹了各自的優(yōu)點和不足之處。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中Hostels一節(jié)語句可知：這些非正式的場所給你一種友好的、充滿青春活力的氛圍，故選A。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一節(jié)談到露宿，說露宿能讓你在星空下睡覺，不方便的地方是你出門時得帶著帳篷。要額外攜帶一些物品，故選 B。

【題目】Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed（展現(xiàn)）herself as she did nowhere else.

After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate（巨頭）Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline’s close friend and former White House social secretary Letitia Baldrige made a suggestion that she consider a career in publishing. After consideration, Jacqueline accepted it. Perhaps she hoped to find there some idea about how to live her own life. She became not less but more interested in reading. For the last 20 years of her life, Jacqueline worked as a publisher’s editor, first at Viking, then at Doubleday, pursuing（追求）a late-life career longer than her two marriages combined.

The book went on to become an international best-seller. She dealt, too, with Michael Jackson as he prepared his autobiography（自傳）, Moonwalk.

Jacqueline may have been hired for name and for her social relations, but she soon proved her worth.

【題目】Tang Zhou and his wife are planning to have their second child, a test-tube baby. His wife had a natural delivery when she was 34 and their first child, a boy, is now 7. The couple are now hoping to have a daughter through a surrogate mother in the US. “My wife couldn’t bear another delivery because of her heart condition and her age. Surrogacy helps avoid the risks to older mothers,” Tang said, “Moreover, our second child will be born in the US and become a citizen there. That is not a bad choice.”

The couple spent weeks researching their move, looking for a reliable agency that provides surrogacy services overseas. Surrogacy is still illegal in many countries, including China. “We will be taking much higher risks by relying on a surrogate mother in China because we are not protected by any regulation or law. You pay a lot of money but may meet with many problems,” Tang said. “You might not even get your baby back.”

Tang and his wife are part of an increasing number of Chinese couples who are turning to surrogacy services. Tang also considered surrogacy in Thailand but dropped the idea after recent reports about a baby with Down Syndrome(唐氏綜合癥) who was delivered through surrogacy and said to have been deserted in Thailand by the biological parents from Australia. Instead, Tang chose the California Surrogacy Center agency as his first option after reading the detailed introduction on its website. Compared with many other agencies that he could contact only via e-mail, the center has a consulting office in Beijing, Tang said.

The center is in San Diego, California, and has satellite offices in Los Angeles and Beijing. According to Liu, the center has been operating for more than eight years, and about 100 surrogate mothers live in California.

【1】“A surrogate mother” refers to a mother who _______.

A. acts as a baby-sitter

B. nurses another woman’s baby

C. offers service to a new mother

D. gives birth to a baby for another woman

【2】Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A. Chinese couples prefer to have a test-tube baby.

B. Couples face no risks in surrogacy services.

C. A sick test-tube baby was deserted in Thailand.

D. Unhealthy test-tube babies can be legally abandoned.

【3】Tang and his wife turned to overseas surrogacy services because _______.

A. surrogacy remains illegal in China

B. they call for less money

C. it is more convenient to contact them

D. most of them are experienced

【4】The passage mainly tells us that ________.

A. an old woman can take a risk of delivering a baby

B. more Chinese couples are turning to surrogacy

C. it’s not a bad choice to have a baby born overseas

D. biological couples may fail to get their babies back
