You may have heard of people who are allergic（過(guò)敏）to seafood, smoke or pets. But did you know that some people were allergic to Wi-Fi signals(信號(hào))?

Rose White, a 44-year-old woman from Britain, first found herself being allergic to Wi-Fi signals in 2015.She

had a cough, heart trouble and great pains in her head when she stayed at the places covered with Wi-Fi signals.

Rose has tried many ways to keep away from Wi-Fi signals. In the past six months, she either slept in her car or in tent which she had put up in the woodland and in the fields. She even tried sleeping in a shed(棚子). Being completely tired, Rose had no choice but to quit her job and moved 370 kilometers away from her home to avoid Wi-Fi signals, but failed. Because of the hard life, she got a stomach problem.

She is now living in a small house in the rural(鄉(xiāng)下的) area in England. There are far fewer Wi-Fi signals. However, the house, which belongs to her friend, will be sold to others, so she has to move again soon.

Rose is planning to move to a more rural area. She is also planning to buy a camper van(野營(yíng)車) so that she can drive away from Wi-Fi signals whenever she is feeling uncomfortable. As she can not work to make money, she has to raise money online. She is hoping to raise 15,000 pounds. So far, she has raised over 1,600 pounds. She still has a long way to go.

1.Which is not Rose’s allergic symptom(癥狀)?

A. Cough B. Heart trouble C. Headache D. Stomachache.

2.What did Rose do to keep away from Wi-Fi signals?

A. She slept in tent in the woodland.

B. She bought a small house in the countryside.

C. She moved to a more rural area.

D. She bought a camper van.

3.What does the underlined word “quit” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. leave B. begin C. change D. continue

4.Why does she have to move again soon?

A. Because the place she lives in is near the Wi-Fi signals.

B. Because her friend decided to sell the house.

C. Because she wants to move to a new place.

D. Because she tries to find a job in the more rural area.

5.What does the sentence “She still has a long way to go.” in the last paragraph refer to(指的是)?

A. She will live long.

B. It’s not easy for her to raise enough money.

C. There will be a lot of difficulties for her to deal with.

D. It’s difficult for her to find a place without Wi-Fi signals.

Some travellers have found that they always spend much more than they planned. Here is how it happens:

1Preparing too much before travelling

Some people, especially women travellers, like to travel as if starting a new life. Several weeks before the trip, they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better sunglasses and so on. They always like to fill their travelling bags with all fashionable things. Just travelling? Attending a fashion show more like it. They only care more about their appearance (外表) than the views they see during the trip.

2Following other travellers blindly (盲目地)

They can’t stop shopping for objects they would never really buy and would certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers “getting ahead” to buy “Christmas” presents even in summer.

3Buying the same thing that they have left at home

They don’t remember to bring things like trainers, cool bags, or beach towels. The price of the towels (毛巾) near beaches is very high. They spend a lot on those things. However, plenty of new towels are sleeping in their bathroom at home.

閱讀以上信息，用恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~完成下面的短文，每空一詞。
