Question

 Do you have any places to visit during this fall? How about the following two places? Tulum, Mexico

Why You Should Go：Tulum is about an hour and a half south of Cancun，down the Riviera Maya of Mexico. The beaches there have not been developed yet.

Where to Sleep: The most common type of houses in Tulum are small ones with no frills(不實(shí)用的裝飾) on or near the beach;you'll like the ocean wind,as the small houses nearly don't have air conditioners. Hemingway has waterfront(濱水區(qū)的) small houses with gardens.

Where to Eat: You can probably eat at your hotel;the owners often cook. You can also take

a taxi into the center of the city Tulum and eat at Carlos'n Charlie's,which offers live music. Budapest，Hungary Why You Should Go: Budapest is less expensive and less explored than other Western European capitals. It has the beautiful Buda Castle,and the Danube River divides the city Buda from Pest.

Where to Sleep：The Opera House and museums are in central Pest,but staying in Buda can be cheaper. The Hotel Astra ( doubles from $144) is in central Buda. Vadvirag Panzio (doubles from $81) is very cheap in nearby Buda Hills,but you'll have to take a bus into town.

Where to Eat: Have coffee at the popular Ruszwurm. For dinner,try the traditional Tabani Terasz. "It's below scenic Castle Hill and is still unknown to most tourists," says Ben Curtis,a guide from Rick Steves' tour company，Europe Through the Back Door.

Answer 1

 5-8 CDBA

B篇是一則介紹墨西哥的Tulum和匈牙利' 的Budapest兩個旅游城市商業(yè)廣告。廣告主要談了去兩地的游覽目的和食宿地點(diǎn)。

5.C意圖揣摩題。從短文開頭的兩個問句和下文的三個小標(biāo)題可以得知該答案。

6.D數(shù)字運(yùn)算題。3 x$144= $432。

7.B邏輯推理題。根據(jù)該名字的構(gòu)成和該城市處在多瑙河兩岸的地理位置可知該答案。A項(xiàng)敘述與Budapest is less expensive的描述不符；beautiful Buda Castle當(dāng)然是在Buda 了;D項(xiàng)敘述文中未提及。

8.A邏輯推理題。從廣告的最后一段可知該答案。B項(xiàng)與The most common type of hou?ses in Tulum are small ones with no frills(不實(shí)用的裝飾) on or near the beach的描述不相符;C項(xiàng)敘述不得而知；D項(xiàng)敘述與文中Tulum is about an hour and a half south of Cancun描述不相符。
