When you are traveling in Thailand，which means of transport is the best choice?

You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand.It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north.The most popular bikes are the little 125 cc Honda Dream which you can get for about 150 baht(銖)a day or as little as 3，000 baht per month，making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.

Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi.When you are in cities in Thailand，especially in Bangkok，always remember to get a taxi that is going on the roads.Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the milometer(計程表)．They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!

The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good，so renting cars is another way to get around.The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable(合理的)price.It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West.Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand，more expensive than American prices，but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe.In the past，Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in—signs were generally in Thai only，making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around.But now，the situation is improved.In a lot of places，even the farthest corners of the country，street signs are in both Thai and English.

1.What is the writer's advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?

A．To take a taxi driving on the road.

B．To take a taxi parked outside hotels.

C．To make sure there is a meter in it.

D．To bargain with the driver over the price.

2.It was difficult to drive in Bangkok in the past because ________．

A．there were too many traffic jams on the roads

B．there were no signs showing directions

C．the signs were written only in their own language

D．the quality of the roads was not good

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Renting a car to get around Thailand is very expensive.

B．Tourists can only rent a motorbike in the beaches and islands.

C．The price of petrol in Thailand is lower than that in Europe.

D．Cars in Thailand are cheaper than those in the West.

4.In which part of a magazine can this passage be found?

A．Entertainment. B．Tourism.

C．Market. D．Advertisement.

Once we got home, there was barely time to enjoy our presents. We had to go off to our grandparents' house for our annual Christmas dinner. As we drove down the highway through town, I noticed that the family was there, standing outside the closed gas station.

My father was driving very slowly down the highway. The closer we got to the turnoff for my grandparents' house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned in the middle of the road and said, "I can't stand it!"

"What?" asked my mother.

"It's those people back there at the gas station, standing in the rain. They've got children. It's Christmas. "

When my father pulled into the service station, I saw that there were five of them: the parents and three children- two girls and a small boy.

My father rolled down his window. "Merry Christmas," he said.

"Howdy," the man replied.

"You’re waiting on the bus?" my father asked.

The man said that they were.

"Well, that bus isn't going to come along for several hours, and you're getting wet standing here. Winborn's just a couple miles up the road. They've got a shed with a cover there, and some benches," my father said. "Why don't y'all get in the car and I'll run you up there."

The man thought about it for a moment, and then he beckoned to his family. They climbed into the car. They had no luggage, only the clothes they were wearing.

Once they settled in, my father looked back over his shoulder and asked the children if Santa had found them yet. Three glum faces mutely gave him his answer.

"Well, I didn't think so," my father said, winking at my mother, "because when I saw Santa this morning, he told me that he was having trouble finding all, and he asked me if he could leave your toys at my house. We'll just go get them before I take you to the bus stop."

All at once, the three children's faces lit up, and they began to bounce around in the back seat, laughing and chattering.

When we got out of the car at our house, the three children ran through the front door and straight to the toys that were spread out under our Christmas tree. That was the Christmas when my sisters and I learned the joy of making others happy.

When they left, my father reached into his pocket and pulled out two dollars, which was all he had left. He pressed the money into the man's hand. The man tried to give it back, but my father insisted. “Take it. I've been broke before, and I know what it's like when you can't feed your family." We left them there at the bus stop in Winborn. As we drove away, I watched out the window as long as I could, looking back at the little girl hugging her new doll.

1.For the majority, what the story impresses most on us is __________.

A. father’s kind offer to the family in the rain

B. mother’s generosity to give all our Christmas presents away

C. that my sister and I had no alternative as to my parents’ decision

D. that the family who got help seemed to be indifferent

2.The writer didn’t get the Christmas presents, but he/she was happy. The reason was_________.

A. his/her parents taught his/her a good lesson

B. they learned the joy of making others happy

C. they would get another presents somewhere else

D. they were likely to get more presents from others

3.We can draw a conclusion from the story that _________.

A. only you help others heart and soul can you feel more happy

B. God helps those who help themselves

C. Present rose to others with fragrance lingering at hand.

D. Happiness takes no account of time

4.After reading the story, you will have the feeling of _________.

A. great happiness B. light sadness

C. little sorrow D. some warmth
