Planning your holiday? Whether you’re going to Yunnan or UK, it’s important to make sure you’re well-prepared. Here’s a handy checklist to help you.
Location
The first thing you have to decide is where you want to go. Of course a lot will depend on your time and budget. Do you want to relax on a beach, visit some famous landmarks, or hike through some beautiful scenery? All these things are available in China, but if your budget stretches, why not look at somewhere else in Asia, or even farther.
Packing
There can be such a thing as being over prepared when traveling, but you don’t want to forget something important. It can be a good idea to wear pants with zipped pockets. In certain countries local thieves will target unsuspecting tourists for their money. It can also be worth packing some basic medical supplies. If you are going to be moving around a lot, buy a good backpack. Finally, remember to pack clothes that are going to be suitable for the weather.
Accommodation
There are several things to consider when picking where you want to stay. Location is often the most important. When staying in hotels, it is often a good idea to book your first night in a new city. After all, you will not be familiar with the surroundings and will want somewhere to leave your luggage. However, don’t spend more than a couple of days at the same hotel. When you get to a new place, you might soon discover there’s somewhere better to stay.
Don’t forget
The key to a good holiday is detail. When you’re traveling, especially in a foreign country, don’t forget to change some money before you leave. If you’re traveling somewhere tropical, you might need some injections or pills to avoid disease. And it’s always worth taking out travel insurance, just in case you find yourself in a spot of bother during the trip. Don’t forget to check the exchange rates. The strong yuan has made traveling abroad cheaper recently. It can also be a good idea to write down the phone number of the closest Chinese embassy, in case you need help while abroad.
【小題1】You have to take all the following into consideration EXCEPT _______ when deciding where to spend your holiday.

A．culture B．purpose C．money D．time 
【小題2】Pants with zipped pockets are recommended mainly because _______.
A．it’s a good measure in case of emergencies 
B．you’ll be expected to buy a lot of souvenirs 
C．you’ll carry many small things with you 
D．it will help you guard against local theft 
【小題3】As for accommodation, the writer’s tip is _______.
A．to stay away from the downtown areas to get cheap places  
B．to book one or two nights in the same hotel in case you don’t like it 
C．to choose your location after you arrive at your destination 
D．better not to leave your luggage in unfamiliar hotels 
【小題4】It can be inferred from the last part that we should _______.
A．choose the most suitable kind of travel insurance 
B．use RMB in all foreign countries since the yuan is strong 
C．check the exchange rates so as to decide what currency (貨幣) to buy 
D．get in touch with Chinese embassy if we need help when abroad 
【小題5】What’s the purpose of the passage?
A．To attract the tourists to travel abroad. 
B．To tell some travel information to tourists. 
C．To help the tourists make good preparations for their holidays. 
D．To remind tourists of the safety during their journey.

A few years ago my sister moved from her home in Alabama to Buffalo, New York. Since moving to Buffalo she’s become a big hockey fan and has encouraged me to start watching it. Unfortunately it’s very difficult to find hockey on television here in Alabama. Since hockey games don’t air very much on television I’ve had to look for different ways to watch hockey games.
I often see websites that claim if you go to their website you can watch television on your computer. I try out many of these websites hoping that one of the television stations is a northern station that airs hockey games. Unfortunately, most of them don’t work. Either the site doesn’t really give you what they advertise or their video player doesn’t work properly. But finally I’ve found one website that actually works.
Free Tube is a site that you can go to and watch Television online for free. You don’t have to download any kind of special software or pay money or even sign up for anything. All you have to do is go to Free Tube, choose your channel and start watching. 
The different channels to choose from are separated into different categories like news, business, entertainment, music and sports. You’re not going to find channels like NBC or ABC so you can watch the latest episode of Heroes or Grey’s Anatomy but it does include some popular channels like Cartoon Network and ESPN.
There is also a movie section. Each movie channel airs different sorts of films like adventure, classics, comedy or horror and that channel will always air that kind of movies. The movie section also includes my favorite station called Maxx Trailers (預(yù)告片). Maxx Trailers airs nothing but movies trailers 24 hours a day. Some of the trailers are for movies coming out and some are for movies that have already been released but already released movies don’t go back farther than a couple of months.
So far I haven’t had any problems with Free Tube’s video player either. Whenever I choose a channel, the video almost always works and usually loads every quickly. The only problem I have with Free Tube is that there is currently a glitch if you’re using Firefox. Once you choose a channel you can’t select another channel to change to, your web browser will freeze up. So if you’re using Firefox, the only way to switch channels is to leave the site and re-enter the site, when choosing what channel you want to go to. However, Free Tube is aware of this glitch and is working with Mozilla to get it fixed right away.
If you’re missing some show everyone is talking about like Grey’s Anatomy or Heroes, this isn’t really a solution for that. But Free Tube is a good way to find channels that you weren’t aware of; there are several good stations to be found.
【小題1】The author mainly ________ in this passage.

A．tells us his experience in using the Web
B．introduces Free Tube to the readers
C．shows us the disadvantages of Free Tube
D．shows us how to enjoy films online
【小題2】The author got interested in watching hockey games ________
A．because he is a sports fan
B．due to his sister’s influence
C．since everyone enjoys the games
D．because he has nothing to do all day long
【小題3】From the passage we can learn that ______________
A．the author is also very fond of movies
B．Maxx Trailers airs to-be-released movies
C．ABC is a very famous TV station in America
D．Firefox is the only software used to watch films online
【小題4】 The underlined word “glitch” probably means _________
A．coverB．changeC．noteD．fault

Bamboo flooring（竹地板）is a growing trend in home flooring and is also a great improvement to traditional hardwood floors．It is the most environmentally friendly kind of natural flooring that you can select for your home．It is also a renewable（可再生的）resource,is stronger than steel,and does not suffer from problems as a result of temperature changes．
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on earth,and only takes five years to grow to adult form．Bamboo is harvested every five years,and starts to re-grow immediately after being harvested．For this reason,bamboo is a kind of grass,not a tree．Bamboo is hollow（空心的）but very hard and can stand up to 50,000 pounds of pressure per square inch．
