Henry had been a journalist for many years. He had worked on many international newspapers and magazines and traveled all over the world.

Henry had witnessed wars and natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and erupting volcanos(火山爆发). He had reported on serious accidents such as major fires and airline crashes. He had seen every kind of terrible crime and strange event there was. He had met and written about some of the most unusual people in the world. In fact, there wasn't much that Henry had not seen or done.

Now he was retired from journalism. He owned a very expensive restaurant and spent his days talking to his wealthy and important customers. He liked to say that nothing surprised him.

One day he was sitting at the bar in his restaurant when a big gorilla walked in and asked for a table. Henry showed no surprise. He took the gorilla to a table and handed him a menu. He treated him politely and pretended there was nothing at all strange about having a gorilla in his restaurant.

The gorilla looked through the menu and ordered a salad. Henry served the gorilla his salad personally, knowing that his waiters and waitresses would be too frightened. At last the gorilla finished his salad and asked for the bill. Henry wrote out the bill and handed it to the big animal. The gorilla studied it, shook his head sadly, then gave Henry fifty dollars.

"Thank you", Henry said, and then to make conversation he added, "We don't get many gorillas in this restaurant."

"At fifty dollars for a salad," the gorilla said, "I'm not surprised."

One day on my luxury (奢侈的) holiday cost 30 yuan. Bus ticket: 2 yuan. Breakfast, lunch and dinner: 5 yuan. Hotel: 20 yuan. OK, so it was a 10-seater bus with only four seats that weren’t broken and 20 other people on it. OK, all my food came from one steamed bun (包子) stand at the side of the road, and the “hotel” was a hostel (青年旅社), and I shared a room with four strangers. But the steamed buns I bought were so delicious and the bed in the hostel was soft and comfortable and I had the best night’s sleep I’d had in years.

Cheap travel is “in”. It’s on reality shows, and it’s all around us. People who once went to five-star scenic spots are suddenly filling youth hostels and campsites, showing off to their friends about their 24-hour trip in the third-class sleeper train across Mongolia.

Now, I’m not a millionaire who can afford more than a budget holiday. But even if I could, I don’t think I’d spend the money.

Budget travel is addictive (令人上瘾的). It’s partly the challenge of squeezing the most out of your pennies — and it can get a bit ridiculous(荒唐可笑的). My stomach wasn’t too impressed with the meat stir-fry I bought from a stand simply because it was 1 yuan, for example.

But it’s easy to travel in a smart way, too. With the Internet, you can always check out reviews and find hostels, food and things to do, recommended by other budget travelers who’ve been there before. You don’t have to suffer, and it means you can afford to spend more nights on holiday, see more things and have more experiences.

1.The author mentions her budget travel story at the beginning to ________.

A. show what budget trips are generally like

B. introduce the best trip she’s had over the years

C. show how difficult it can be to spend as little money as possible

D. display her ability to spend her money cleverly

A. forgottenB. popularC. overlookedD. tough

3.What’s the author’s suggestion to budget travelers?

A. Share your travel budget with rich friends.

B. Only eat at street stands and live in hostels.

C. Organize budget trips with people you have traveled together with before.

D. Read other budget travelers’ tips online.

A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man—the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and wins greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some kind.

This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even expensively furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward; furthermore, the dinner will not consist just of something quickly and easily mixed from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. Instead, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a group of workers on the highway in order to pay for his education.

1.From Paragraph 1, we know that in America ________.

A. people feel painful to mention their fathers as laborers

B. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made man

C. people can always rise to the top through their own efforts

D. college professors win great respect from common workers

2.According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because ________.

A. she can hardly afford servants

B. servants in America are hard to get

C. she takes pride in what she can do herself

D. it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food

3.The expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “________”.

A. wait to place the table

B. keep accounts for a bar

C. work in a furniture shop

D. serve customers in a restaurant

4.Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage?

A. A Respectable Self-made Family.

B. The Development of Manual Labor.

C. Characteristics of American Culture.

D. American Attitude Toward Manual Labor.
