A trip with your family and friends to Disney World can be one of the best vacations of your life. When you decide to travel to this destination, you can be sure in the knowledge that you are going to have a great time.
Many travelers may be worried about the exorbitant amount of money that one has to pay for a comfortable and fun trip to Disney World. We all want to give our family and children the best time since it may only be a once in a lifetime vacation. However it would not be wise to end up in debt over a week-long stay in Disney World. A few handy tips and a little planning can make a lot of difference and can reduce some of your financial (经济上的) worries.
You need to start planning for a vacation to Disney World well in advance. The first step is deciding what time of year you wish to visit it. The peak seasons of the year will be costly for the accommodations (膳宿) whether you are staying within or outside the theme park. Staying outside the resort is a choice that may save you a large amount of money if you plan to stay for a week or two. Also, there are plenty of budget (价格低廉的) hotels outside Disney World that offer cheap and pleasant accommodations with shuttle services. Another money saving tip is to buy food ahead of time. If you have most of your meals at your hotel or at cheaper restaurants, it will save you a lot of money. You can try not to buy food in and around Disney World. Carrying food and beverages and enough cold water would help you reduce the cost, too.
【小题1】The first paragraph mainly tells us that ______.

A.a trip to Disney World must be the best vacation of your life
B.you are sure to have a good time by visiting Disney World
C.when you decide to travel to Disney World, you should bring your family and friends with you
D.you can get rich knowledge during your travel to Disney World
【小题2】The underlined word “exorbitant” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.
A.too lowB.too high
C.too expensive D.too small
【小题3】Why do you need to start planning for a vacation to Disney World well in advance?
A.You can get more information about Disney World ahead of time.
B.You can make it more economical to travel to Disney World.
C.You can spend longer time traveling in Disney World.
D.You can receive a warm welcome in Disney World.
【小题4】How can you save money if you visit Disney World according to the passage?
A.By going there in the peak seasons.
B.By staying outside the resort for a week or two.
C.By buying food ahead of time in Disney World.
D.By carrying enough food and drinks.


【小题1】B
【小题2】C
【小题3】B
【小题4】D

解析【小题1】主旨题。结合best vacations和have a great time,可知第一段的大意是:如果游览Disney World的话, 你一定过得很开心。
【小题2】推测词义题。结合worried about和end up in debt可断定应该是花钱多的含义,故选C项。

A TAXI driver taught me a million dollar lesson in customer satisfaction and expectation. Inspiring speakers charge thousands of dollars to give his kind of training to corporate directors and staff.  It cost me only a $12 taxi ride.

The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door. As be got in the driver’s seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me for my use. He then showed me several tapes and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.

Well! I looked around for a “Candid Camera!” Wouldn’t you? I could not believe the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, “Obviously you take great pride in you work. You must have a story to tell.”

“You bet,” he replied, “I used to be in Corporate America. But I got tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to find my right position in life, somewhere I could feel proud of being the best I could be.
