When traveling abroad, it is wise to carry your money in traveler's checks because checks are protected against loss or theft. If your checks are lost or stolen, the issuing authority will refund(賠償) your money.

Not only are they safe, they are also convenient. They are available in different currencies(貨幣) and they can be cashed at most banks throughout the world. Most shops, hotels and restaurants also accept them. Traveler's checks are very easy to use. When you collect them, you sign each check once. The cashier enters the amount in your passport. When you cash, you sign each check again. The cashier will usually ask to see your passport again too.

To get traveler's checks you usually go to your bank. They can be paid in cash or in other ways. Large amounts, however, must be ordered in advance.

For the safety and convenience of traveler's checks, you are charged two commissions(傭金，酬勞): an insurance commission when you buy them and an encashment commission when you cash them.

It is suitable to make a note of the serial numbers of your checks. Keep this separate from your traveler's checks.

72 . People like to carry their money in traveler’s checks when traveling abroad, because______

A. they cannot be lost or stolen           B. they can be used anywhere

C. they are safe and handy         D. they can save travelers plenty of money

73.  If your traveler's checks are lost or stolen, who will refund you?

A. The authority that issues you the passport.

B. The insurance company. 

C. The bank where you buy your checks.

D. The travel agency that arranges your travel.

74.  You sign your traveler’s check for the second time in order to ________.

   A. get your passport                      B. cash it

   C. claim(要求) insurance                  D. pay for commission

75 . Which of the following statement is TRUE?

   A. You need not pay a commission for the safety of your traveler’s checks.

   B. People usually get traveler’s checks from foreign banks.

   C. Traveler’s checks can be exchanged for the money of the country you visit.

   D. You cannot get your passport until you get your traveler’s checks.

       The winners，with an average age of 47．5，were selected by women officials and journalists of the nine women’s newspapers in China，whose standard was men promoting equality between the sexes．

       Li Zhong hua, a 46-year—old air force officer who test-flies planes，said he thought he was chosen because” he takes good care of his family，and is a gentleman”．

       ”Gentlemen get more respect in our society．They should be like those in the movie Titanic，who let women and children lave first in life rafts�！県e told China Daily．

       His team has rescued more than 180 women who were taken away by force and sold as wives in the mountain regions of Fujian Province．

       Some other” Men of Our Time” are：

       Lang Jinghe，67，gynecologist at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing，who has made breakthroughs in ovarian cancer；

       Ma Li，33，official in Xuzhou of Jiangsu Province，whose shelter has helped 196 victims of domestic violence；Li Mingshull，43，lawyer in Beijing，who is active in campaigns against family violence；Liu Ri，51，a mine worker in Lu’an of Shanxi Province，who took care of his paralyzed
