Backpacking in Europe is a wonderful experience for young people around the world.After high school or university,you can plan a European backpacking trip.

Packing

As you plan the things you will carry,bring warm clothes and a raincoat or umbrella to deal with changing weather in different European countries.Europeans like dressing nicely,and good clothes will make you feel less like a dusty(满是灰尘的) backpacker.It is not worth taking the trouble to bring a hair dryer or shampoo,as you can buy basic necessities(必需品) in Europe.

Hostels

The cheapest places to sleep when backpacking in Europe are hostels(where people can stay and eat fairly cheaply).Most hostels have a lot of information about low-cost ways to see local attractions,and many offer tours.The cost for hostel beds differs from country to country.In Paris,you might pay 30 euros,but in Bulgaria,you can get a bed for 10 euros.In general,hostels are more expensive in large,popular cities such as Paris,Rome and London.

Many backpackers use rail passes(火车通票),which allow unlimited(不受限的) travel within country groups over a period of time.If you have the time to travel by train and will be traveling in a country group,this can be a good deal.Otherwise,you may consider point-to-point tickets,local trains,buses and airlines such as Ryanair,easyJet and Wizz Air,which offer cheap flights.

Food

Eating out in Europe can come with a high cost,and the best way to cut your food budget(预算) is to cook meals in the shared kitchens in hostels.You can make several meals into picnics to take advantage of Europe’s parks.When shopping for your picnic,try and buy at a local market.You save some euros while supporting the local industry at the same time.When eating out,choose restaurants away from tourist attractions.

1.Which of the following is an advantage of hostels?

A.They are often built in popular cities.

B.They are mainly open to young people.

C.They usually provide tour information.

D.They always ask the same price for their beds.

2.Which of the following can be put in the blank in the text?

A.Traveling. B.Shopping.

C.Entertainment. D.Transportation.

3.To make a cheap trip in Europe,you’d better .

Many years ago，when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver，I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City，where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台)，I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off，but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city，and when I got out of the car，the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank?you note for helping me. Soon afterward，I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later，I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon，I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day，and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom. “Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment，so when I got home，I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you，and it meant a lot，he said.

“Thank you”—two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.

School leaders from around the country gathered at the White House on November 19 for“Connected to the Future,” a conference about digital technology in education.Connected is the Obama Government’s five-year plan to support the growth of digital learning in schools.This growth includes equipping America’s schools with high-speed broadband Internet(宽带互联网).

At the conference,President Barack Obama said the U.S.Department of Education is taking steps to help educators and school districts as they change to digital learning.The department created new guidelines to help schools work to improve their technological infrastructure(基础设施).The guidelines are also designed to help schools choose the right digital devices(装备)and set up policies(政策)for their proper use.

At the end of the president’s speech,1,200 school leaders attending the event signed the Future Ready District Pledge on their iPads.It promises the education leaders to help develop a culture of learning through technology at their schools,and to support teachers and students in using technology.

“Every child deserves a chance at a world-class education,”Obama added.“That’s what makes our nation great.”

Most of the sandstorms that had swept China last year originated from foreign land,a Chinese official in charge of desertification control said Monday.And the invasions(入侵)could partly explain the frequent sandstorms in the country in recent years despite its achievements in desertification control.

Since the start of last spring,the north and northwestern Chinese regions had been hit by 17 sandstorms,of which,a dozen came from foreign land.

Situated in the central-Asia sandstorm region,one of the world’s four largest sandstorm sources,China also suffers from sandstorms from outside the country while being blamed as a sand source to northeast Asia.The other three major sources are in Africa,North America and Australia.

The land suffering from desertification has been decreasing by 7,585 sq.km annually in China,and the area of sandy land has also been falling by 1,284 sq.km a year.

The shrinkage(收缩)forms a clear contrast to the fact that the land suffering from desertification and sandy feature was added by 10,400 sq.km and 3,436 sq.km late last century,respectively.

Currently,the desertification land in China makes up 2.64 million sq.km,accounting for 27.46 percent of the nation’s land,and its sandy land totals 1.74 million sq.km,accounting for 18.1 percent of the country’s total.

1.What does the underlined word “decreasing” mean in Paragraph 4?

D.The western part of China.

3.Which of the following is believed to be the sand source to northeast Asia?

4.From the passage,we can infer that .

A.the land in China suffering from desertification has been increasing greatly

B.China has made achievements in its own desertification control

C.the desertification land makes up nearly half of China’s territory

D.little progress has been made in controlling desertification in China
