2019年中考英语一轮复习 第一篇 教材梳理篇 课时训练(十一)

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 and 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(远足) 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

5

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(奔牛节) 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(签证截止日期).I ended up overstaying by nearly 1 month! When I crossed the border(边境), 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. 21.What should you do if you're going to travel the world?

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

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

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

25.What's the passage mainly about?
