Safety information for study abroad
Remember you are responsible for the choices you make regarding your safety! Be careful all the time. Not knowing about the culture, language, people and situations may put you at higher risk. Learn what women and men do in the culture to protect themselves.
☆ Avoid walking alone at night. Do not agree to meet a person whom you do not know in a lonely place. Be cautious when meeting new people. Don’t give out your address and phone number to strangers or let out too much personal information about yourself.
☆ Do not attract attention to yourself by speaking English loudly in public in America or wearing expensive jewelry. These manners will certainly attract thieves, or worse. Do not be afraid to be impolite when faced with unwanted situations. Do not let anyone push you into taking risks. If you feel unsafe, you probably are.
☆ Taxis are not safe everywhere, especially late at night. Men and women are often robbed by taxi drivers. In many cities, taxis have gotten so dangerous that people use Radio Taxis to get the names of good companies.
☆ When using public telephones, especially in a lonely place, stand facing out so you can see your surroundings. If someone stops you to ask for the time or to ask for directions, step away to a distance that is safer. Why would they consider asking an obviously foreign person for directions?
☆ Your life will always be more important than any of your possessions (財(cái)產(chǎn)). Let them go and run away if necessary.
57. For whom is the passage written?
A. Parents who worry about the safety of their children.
B. Foreign people who are traveling in the USA.

C
Where do you want to travel this year? What are some of your favorite vacation spots? See some places we have picked as the top destinations for 2010.
● Sri Lanka
The island feels like one big tropical zoo: elephants roam freely, water buffaloes (水牛) idle in paddy fields and monkeys swing from trees.And then there's the beautiful coastline.Among the most scenic is Nilaveli Beach in the Tamil north.Vacationers can lie on poolside hammocks (吊床) under palm trees or swim in its crystal-clear waters.Or they can order cocktails at the Nilaveli Beach Hotel.
● Shanghai
Following up on Beijing's successful Olympics, Shanghai is expecting 70 million visitors to its World Expo.From May 1 to Oct.31, more than 200 nations and regions will turn a two-square-mile site by the city's Huangpu River into an architectural playground: Switzerland will be represented by a building shaped like a map of that country, while England is in the celebrated hands of the designer Thomas Heatherwick.However, by contrast, the United States pavilion might be mistaken for a suburban (郊區(qū)的) office park.
● Copenhagen
Last year, thousands of environmentalists challenged world leaders in Copenhagen for the climate summit, but the Danish capital has already emerged as one of the world's greenest, and maybe coolest, cities.In Copenhagen, long, flat roads all have bicycle paths where locals cycle around the city.Away from all the modernism and the happy cyclists, cultural thrill-seekers are being attracted to the district of Norrebro, where the city's young crowd the cafes and galleries or dance in local clubs until the early hours.
