Traveling can be a way to gain life experiences, especially during Spring Break - a week long school vacation in the United States. But what if you’re a student and don’t have enough money for a trip? Don’t worry. Here are some useful suggestions.

●Save: This probably is the most important preparation for traveling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you’ll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.

●Plan ahead: Don’t wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice. Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security(安全) and savings.

●Do your homework: No matter where you go, research the places you will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.

●Plan sensibly: Write down what you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.

●Travel in groups: Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places. By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.

●Work as you go: Need more money to support your trip? Look for work in the places you visit.

●Go off the beaten path: Tourist cities may be expensive. You may want to rethink your trip and go to a lesser-known area. Smaller towns can have many interesting activities and sights.

●Pack necessary things: The most important things to take are not always clothes: Remember medicine in case you get sick and snacks in case you cannot find a cheap restaurant.

●Use the Internet: The Net can help to save money. Some useful websites include www. Travelocity. com, www. bargains-lowest fare. com and www. Economic travel. com.

By planning sensibly, even students can enjoy the travel. Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.

1. D。判断题。从第 2 段第 4 句话Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things 可以看出另一些人为什么感到不幸福的原因。

5. In this passage, the writer mainly _______.

A. describes two types of people

C. suggests the unhappy people should get rid of the habits of unhappiness

D. tells people how to be happy in life

[答案解析]

生活中有些人拥有相等的健康、财富和生活条件，但由于考虑事情、人物、事件的角度不同，一些人感到幸福，而另一些人则感到不幸福。由于这些不幸福的人处处冒犯别人，其结果只能是处于被孤立的境地。
