There are many travel destinations across the globe. What confuses a person most is which travel destination to choose. When choosing a destination for a vacation or a trip, you need to decide what that destination has to offer to you. Meanwhile, you should also take many factors into consideration, so that the decision-making will get easy.

The amount of money you want to spend is an important factor and plays an important role in deciding a destination. For example, cities like London, New York, Vegas etc are expensive. On the other hand when you travel to Asia, the cost is generally lower and you don’t need to spend much on traveling, lodging or shopping. Therefore, it is important to estimate your budget before selecting a destination.

When you plan your vacation, another important thing to plan is the number of the days you want to spend. There are many travel destinations in the world that can be covered in a week’s time. Some destinations like Africa, or Maldives beaches can be planned in a week’s time. Some other destinations like New York, Thailand may require more than a few weeks to enjoy completely.

Vacations are also planned according to the company you have. For example, if you travel with your family, then you’ll need a place where you can enjoy with your family members. Similarly, if you are going with friends, a city full of amusement parks, museums, shopping centers will be an ideal(理想的) destination. Therefore you need to consider whom you are going with, before deciding a destination.

1.Who are the intended readers of the text?

A.Students majoring in tourism               B.Foreign travelers

C.travel agencies                         D.Travel planners

2.Compared to a journey to Thailand, a journey to New York _______.

A.is more suitable for a group of people        B.will take you a longer time

C.will cost you more money                 D.gives you more fun

3.What is the main factor to be considered mentioned in the last paragraph?

A.Services provided                       B.Your partners in traveling

C.Activities involved in traveling              D.Your budget for a travel

 

Are you stuck in a rut(车辙)and looking for a change? Fed up of seeing hungry, poor faces on your TV screen and want to do something to help? Perhaps you’ve considered volunteering overseas but ruled it out because you thought you were too old, couldn’t commit enough time, or have a family. If so, think again.

“Over the past five years it has become far safer --- and more professionally acceptable --- to take up a job volunteering overseas,” says David Stitt, managing director of Gap Year for Grown Ups, a company catering for volunteers in their late 20s and upwards. “While 10 years ago intrepid souls took financial and personal risks in volunteering abroad, now several organizations exist to make the experience safe and well-organized.

Nowadays, universities and business encourage overseas volunteering among students and employees. Entire families can volunteer abroad, and agencies are employing more disabled and retired people. A prosperous “humanitarian tourism” industry has sprung up; thousands of UK citizens will do some form of overseas volunteering this year.

“Some volunteering jobs are easier to find than others,” explains Kevin Cusack, from a volunteer advice agency. “If you can speak English, it’s not too hard to land a job teaching English, even without a qualification, and those who enjoy working with children should be able to find child care work.” zxxk

Whether your interest is rainforests or women’s rights, you can find a volunteer position to suit you. But be warned: unless you have relevant skills or existing overseas development experience, it’s going to cost. Just how much depends on the location and length of the position, but you should budget for somewhere between £1,500 and £6,000.

“Having to pay to volunteer may sound paradoxical (矛盾的), but it’s the best way to ensure you get a position that benefits the local community while matching your interests and skills,” explains Cusack.  “You can also discuss the time you want to commit to a project --- many positions can fit into a holiday or even a weekend.”

1.The underlined words “intrepid souls” in Paragraph 2 most probably refers to ___________.

A.companies        B.volunteers         C.fighters           D.students

2.In Kevin Cusack’s opinion, paying to volunteer overseas ___________.

A.must be incredible and unrealistic

B.can help volunteers learn more about another culture

C.may benefit both volunteers and the community they work in

D.needs confidence, courage and determination

3.What can we learn from the text?

A.Disabled people can also take up a job volunteering overseas.

B.In the past no one could take up a job volunteering overseas.

C.“Humanitarian tourism” industry is in its beginning stage.

D.Taking up a job volunteering overseas needs at least £1,500.

4.Where can we most probably read this article?

A.In a job guidebook.

B.In a celebrity biography.

C.In a guidebook to work overseas.

D.In a report on volunteer work.

5.What is the writer’s attitude towards volunteer work?

A.Critical.           B.Unfavorable.       C.Supportive.        D.Disagreeable.

 

 

第三部分  阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。三百六十

An allowance(零用钱) is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget, save and make their own decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly.

How large is an allowance appropriate? Experts say there is not right amount. Actual amounts differ from area to area, and from family to family.

To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work out a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenditures (花费) such as movie and snack. Next include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare and school supplies. “If you make the child responsible for these bills, ”says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, “he or she will learn to budget for necessary expenditures.”

Finally add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your child’s allowance in line with that of his friends, a child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers can feel left out.

It can be tough but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville, her mother gave her $5 a week. $1.75 of which was for bus fare and lunch. “ If you lose money” Brooke’s mother told her, “you walk home.”

One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store, and then she called home for a ride, “Mom made me walk home,” recalls Stephens, now a financial planner in Brooklyn. “At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson.”

Experts advise an allowance should not be tied directly to a child’s daily chore (琐事). Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home. That can develop his or her initiative (主动性).

1. What does the text mainly discuss?

   A. How to develop a child’s initiative.

   B. How to work up a budget.

   C. How to teach a child to save money.

   D. How to teach a child to manage money matters.

2. It can be inferred from the text that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may_____.

   A. spend all the money very soon

   B. be spoiled and finally ruined

   C. lose the money and can not return home

   D. feel responsible and be careful about money

3. The underlined part “his peers”(in Para.4)probably refers to ______.

   A. his friends    B. his brothers    C. his parents     D. his teachers

4 Why does the author mention Brooke Stephens?

   A. To question the opinion about pocket money.

   B. To compare Stephens with other experts.

  C. To explain the parents should be strict when children are developing habits about money.

   D. To suggest that pocket money is useless in developing a child’s sense of responsibility.
