Question

阅读理解

　　For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe and America seldom left their smoky cities to see the beauty of the countryside. This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.

　　In 1970, a young German school master had an idea which changed this state of affairs. He decided to turn his little school house into a dormitory or hostel(青年招待所) for the summer holidays. Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money. The idea was a success. A few years later, the school house was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. As a result, a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby. This is the first hostel.

　　Today young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to know each other. When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their cards of membership in the hostel organization in their own country. This card will permit them to use the facilities of the hostel all over the world for very low prices.

　　Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or world will happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their food together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs or short talks followed by a question period. One can learn a lot of things about other places. For this reason, a few weeks spent “hostelling” can be just as useful a part of one's education classes in school.
