Ann was on her first package trip in Rosas, Spain.

At the hotel, she checked in, and then went to her room to change before dinner. She was just ready to go downstairs when she found that her Spanish money wasn’t in her handbag. She carefully looked in all her luggage, but she couldn’t find it. All she had was a small purse with ten English pound notes in it!

Ann found a place to change her English money. She had very few pesetas(西班牙货币单位), and she would be here for two weeks. On her way back to the hotel, Ann bought some cheese, some bread and some oranges. When she got back, she told the manager that her doctor had told her not to eat Spanish food; she’d just have breakfast each day, as she knew the price of hotels included breakfast.

For the rest of her holiday, Ann swam in the hotel swimming pool, or lay on the beach and got a sunbath. When the other tourists went to interesting places, she always said she wasn’t well. In fact, her holiday wasn’t bad, except that she was always hungry. After all, a piece of fruit for lunch, and bread and cheese for supper isn’t very much.

Late in the afternoon of their last day, a girl, Jane, asked her why she never ate with them in the hotel restaurant. Ann told her about her money problems. Jane looked at her for a minute, and then said, “But didn’t you know? The price of this holiday includes everything!”

1.“A package trip” probably means _________.

A.a free trip

B.a long journey

C.a pleasant trip

D.a trip that includes the cost of all the tickets and services

2.Ann didn’t eat dinners in the restaurant of the hotel because _________.

A.she was afraid that she couldn’t pay for them with her little money

B.her doctor told her not to eat them

C.she wasn’t well

D.she wasn’t hungry

3.Why did Ann buy some cheese, some bread and some oranges?

A.Because they were good for her health.

B.Because she planned to eat them instead of lunch and supper.

C.Because she liked them more than dinners in the hotel restaurant.

D.Because she is afraid that she couldn’t eat enough in the hotel restaurant.

4.How do you think Jane would feel after she heard Ann’s answer?

A.Angry. B.Happy. C.Surprised. D.Excited

On her first day back at school in August, Stephanie Hughes, a teenage student, was sent to the principal’s office at Woodford County High School in Kentucky, US and her mom was called to school.

She had made a “huge” mistake－at least in the eyes of the school－by wearing a top that showed her collarbone . It was against the school’s dress code.

“This is ridiculous!” Stacie Dunn, Hughes’s mom, wrote on the social media site Facebook. “Something needs to change!”

The incident has become an Internet sensation. Across the US, schools like Woodford are being criticized for their dress codes. Some say the rules are especially unfair to young women.

Over half of US public schools have a dress code, and they are often different for girls and boys, according to the National Center for Education Statistics in the US. Some dress codes, for example, ban skirts and ask for pants to be at least knee-length.

Some have pointed out that these rules are mostly for female students. Women’s clothes are usually cut to be more fitted and shorter, while men’s clothes are longer and looser. In practice, more women will be caught breaking dress codes. The New York Post reported that last year, one school in Staten Island, New York gave 200 dress code detentions in two weeks－90 percent of which went to female students.

Some school administrators say they simply want students to dress professionally to prepare students for their future careers. But others have told female students that their clothes present a “distraction” to male students. That idea is being criticized.

The “distraction” argument is unfair to women, critics say. It suggests that exposed skin means that you want criticism or sexual advances.

“These dress codes mean that girls are getting very clear messages that men have a right to your body in public spaces and it’s socially acceptable, but you will be punished,” Laura Bates, a co-founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, a project that aims to promote equality between men and women, told The Atlantic.

Some students have taken action to change the situation. They have started online campaigns and made short films to build public support.

Certain schools have now chosen to think again about their dress codes with parents and students. Even Woodford County High School－home of the “collarbone” ban－is thinking again about its policies. But, at least for now, the dress code debate is far from over.

1.The underlined phrase “dress code” in Paragraph 2 means 　　　　　 in the article.

A. rules for dressing

B. bans on wearing certain clothes

C. policies for dressing professionally

D. policies on what to wear for special occasions

2.What does Stacie Dunn think is “ridiculous”?

A. Her daughter making big mistakes in class.

B. Showing collarbones being considered a huge mistake.

C. Sharing the incident on Facebook.

D. Being called in to school.

3.The dress codes are mainly a problem for female students because 　　　　　 .

A. women’s clothes are loose and long

B. they are often caught breaking them

C. they often dress in a way that draws attention

D. women’s clothes are often short and fitted

4.The dress code debate has led to 　　　　　 , according to the article.

A. many students ignoring their school dress codes

B. students starting online debates and campaigns about the incident

C. some schools reconsidering their policies with parents and students

D. public support of more discussions about equality between men and women

On my first round-the-world trip in 2006， I planned everything out in advance. I knew where I was going， staying for how long， and how I would get there.And then half-way through I ditched the plan and went with the flowOver the years，how I plan my travel has changed. Now， I'm a last-minute planner and seldom travel with any plan.

Traveling without a plan gives you great flexibility （灵活性）.Since nothing is booked far in advance， you can turn to something different when you change your mind or something better comes along. I changed my plans to meet a friend on an island in Thailand and stayed for a month. I wouldn't have had that experience if I had kept to my planned schedule.

However， most new travelers are the opposite-they overplan their trips.Their whole journey is scheduled. Two days here， three days there.I understand why people do that. When time is short， you want to see as much as possible.You don't want to waste a single second.

Actually， it is better to slow down your pace.Spending more time in one place allows you to get a better feel for the rhythm of life You can visit at a more relaxed pace， see more than just the attractions， and open up your schedule to the happy accidents of travel.

When I first made my travel plan，I tried to include everything in it. Then I realized it was unrealistic， and revised my plan.I came up with a list of one or two things I want to see each day and spaced everything out.It's an important lesson to learn. I think the best trip plan is to work out the general path you want to take， book the first few nights of your trip， and let your travels unfold from there. This way you are never locked into a certain place if your feelings change.

1.What does the underlined word "ditched" in Paragraph 1 mean？ ______

A.considered

B.discussed

C.abandoned

D.prepared

2.What can we learn about the author from the text？ ______

A.He lives an easy life.

C.He spends a lot of time traveling.

D.He prefers to follow others when traveling.

3.What does the author suggest about traveling？ ______

A.Working out a simple travel plan.

B.Avoiding booking in advance.

C.Getting prepared for the unexpected things.

D.Setting a goal before making a travel plan.

4.What is the best title for the text？ ______
