Modern life is impossible without traveling．The fastest way of traveling is by plane．With a modern plane it takes one day to travel places which took a month or more to get to a hundred years ago．
Traveling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages(优势)．You can see the country you are traveling through．Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining－cars．They make even the longest journey enjoyable．
Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible．There are large planes and river boats．You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on them．Ships are not as fast as trains or planes, but traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday．
Many people like to travel by car．You can make your own timetable．You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like．You can stop wherever you wish－where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel where you can spend the night．That is why traveling by car is a popular pleasant trip, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are traveling on business．

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
Do you sometimes argue about what seems to you to be a simple fact? Do you argue whether it's cold outdoors or whether the car in front of you is going faster than the speed limit(限速)?
If you get into such arguments, try to think about the story about the six blind men and the elephant．The first blind man who felt the elephant's trunk(象鼻)said it was like a snake．The second who felt the elephant's side said it was like a wall, while the third said it was like a spear(矛)as he touched the animal's tusk．The fourth, who took hold of the elephant's tail insisted that it was like a rope．The fifth man said it looked liked a tree as he put his arms around one of the elephant's legs．The last, who was tall and got hold of the elephant's ears, said it was like a huge fan．
Each man's idea of the animal came from his own experience．So if someone disagrees with you about a “simple fact”, it's often because his experience in the matter is different from yours．
To see how hard it is for even one person to make up his mind about a “simple fact”, try this simple experiment．Get three large bowls．Put ice water in one．Put hot water in the second．Put lukewarm water(温水)in the third．Now put your left hand in the hot water．Put your right hand in the lukewarm water．Your right hand will tell you the water is cold．Your left hand will tell you ________ it is hot．

Watson won his most important game and became Southern Chess Master in 1977．He was given the silver cup．
“It isn't rightly mine,” he said, when he was holding the cup．” “It was won two years ago when I was on holiday in…”
“A family was staying at my hotel at that time．Mrs．Prig, the mother, was told that I played chess; and she begged me to give her young son a game．‘He's only ten．' she said, ‘I've been told that he plays quite well．‘
“Well, as you can guess, I wasn't too happy．A player likes the opponent(对手)to play as well as he does．But it was holiday time and I agreed to play．We placed the board in the garden．The game began．I hoped it would be quick-and so it was．
“I soon knew that David Prig was no learner．After ten minutes his sister came outside and began to play tennis against a wall．The boy seemed to lose interest in our game．He moved a piece(棋子)without care．I gave my attention to the board．
“Call me when you are ready, Mr．Watson,” he said．
When I was ready? I looked up．He had gone off to play with his sister．I studied the board, and found I was driven into corner．So it went on with David：a quick move, then tennis, back to the board, then back to his sister．My difficult condition became impossible to change．I was beaten．Oh, so easily, by a ten-year-old chess player．He was the winner-in twenty-eight minutes．
