Do you know that in some parts of the world, people build temporary（暫時(shí)的）hotels made of snow and blocks（大塊）of ice? These are known as ice hotels.

Unlike usual hotels, all the rooms in the ice hotels are made of ice. In some ice hotels, even the glasses for drinks are made of ice blocks. So they only serve cold drinks. Also, hot food is not served in the ice hotels, but guests can eat hot food at places nearby.

To keep warm, guests sleep in comfortable sleeping bags on ice blocks that are covered by mattresses（床墊）and reindeer skins（馴鹿皮）.

There are some places in the ice hotels that are heated, such as the bathrooms. This is because, even though it is not as cold in the ice hotels as it is outdoors（在戶外）, indoor temperatures are still very low.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the ice hotels is that they are rebuilt every year. They can be used only during the winter months. The ice hotels melt（融化）away when spring arrives. The ice blocks used to build these hotels are from nearby rivers. So, when the ice hotels melt away, they melt back into the rivers.

1.According to the passage, ice hotels ______.

A. are found everywhere B. do business in summer

C. are made of glass D. are made of snow and ice

2.Which of the following about the ice hotels is true?

A. They are just like usual hotels.

B. The glasses are made of wood.

C. They serve cold drinks.

D. The rooms are made of bamboo.

3.You can’t see ______ in the ice hotels.

A. hot food B. reindeer skins

C. sleeping bag D. mattresses

4.Why are bathrooms heated in the ice hotels?

A. Guests want to eat in them.

B. Indoor temperature are very low.

C. Guests ask the hotels to do that.

D. It is as cold indoors as it is outdoors.

5.What happens to the ice hotels in spring?

A. They melt away. B. They are rebuilt.

C. They are repaired. D. They need more ice.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來源：北京市城六區(qū)2018屆初三一模英語(yǔ)分類匯編之綜合閱讀 題型：回答問題

（豐臺(tái)一模）閱讀短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

If you’re going to travel the world this summer, you should make up a travel budget (預(yù)算) before you hit the road. This budget will help you know how much

you need to save before leaving home so that you don’t need to call mom and dad, begging for help halfway through your trip. Here are three tips to help you plan your money for the trip you have planned for this summer vacation.

Pick a location that fits your budget

The countries you choose to visit will have the greatest influence on the necessary size of your travel budget. Road tripping across America or backpacking through Europe, while popular, are two of the more expensive choices for a vacation. In contrast, a visit to Asia or South America will be much less expensive than back home.

“Fun” activities are expensive

It seems to be necessary to plan your travel budget around three major costs…

1.Transportation

2.Hotels

3.Food

Paying for these necessities is part of travel, but you might be surprised to learn that they could add up to less than half of the money you’ll spend abroad. If you’re like me, your “dream vacation” includes more than sitting in your hotel bed.

When I was living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, I owned a small apartment and ate delicious Asian noodles 3 times per day. With the room at $5 per night and meals for $1, I spent about $8 per day.

One of the coolest things to do in Chiang Mai is to go on a zip line adventure. It cost me $60 to get into the trees, which is about what I paid to live for 1 week in

Thailand. If you want to go on an excursion (遠(yuǎn)足) every day, you’ll easily spend

five times as much on “fun” as you do on necessities. This is true all over the world, so make sure you plan excursions into your travel budget ahead of time.

● Plan for the unexpected

You won’t always be prepared for everything that comes your way while traveling. You need at least $1,000 to help you deal with the unexpected.

First, there’s the good kind of unexpected…

When I was traveling through France on my summer vacation three years ago,

I had no idea that the annual bull running festival (奔牛節(jié)) was happening in Spain. A traveler who had just arrived from Spain told me about the festival and because I had some extra money I was able to change my plans and attend!

There’s also the bad kind of unexpected…

When I entered Thailand, I forgot my visa expiration date (簽證截止日期). I

ended up overstaying by nearly 1 month! When I crossed the border (邊境), I was politely told I needed to pay the Thai government nearly $400!

Giving yourself some extra money is very important to your safety and the enjoyment of your trip.

1.What should you do if you’re going to travel the world?

2.How much did the writer spend getting into the trees in Thailand?

3.What does the writer think of going on an excursion?

4.Why could the writer attend the annual bull running festival?

5.What’s the passage mainly about?

1.We should make up a travel budget before we hit the road. 2.$60. 3.It costs much./Expensive./ You’ll easily spend five times as much on “fun” as you do on necessities. 4.Because he had some...
