Travel tips that are no longer true

We all love an inside trip, but some of the classic tips for travelers no longer hold true. 【1】

1. Book a plane ticket far in advance to save money.

This myth may have been true back in the 1960s, when flights were less common than they are today. Back then, the demand for a flight would naturally increase as the date approached, there being few other options. 【2】 According to recent studies, the best time to buy a domestic ticket was between six and seven weeks before.

【3】

Don’t ignore the benefits of going straight to the hotel to negotiate (商談) a good deal on a room. Many hotel chains offer rate guarantees and encourage customers to book directly. Hotels also frequently have discounts or some offers that third-party websites don’t know. Apart from this, hotels give the upgrades, not the booking agents.

3. Avoid street food.

【4】 If this means standing up at a cheap street stall (攤位), then follow the crowd. Don’t sit down at a restaurant and spend four times more, on the simple assumption that it’s the only safe option. Can you see what’s going on in the kitchen?

4. Carry your money in a special pocket or pouch.

This is the fastest way to stand out from locals who will have their money in a wallet or purse. Only take what you need when you leave your hotel room. 【5】

A. When in Rome, do what the Romans do.

B. And make sure to put your wallet in a front pocket.

C. This is only true if you are buying products that are heavily taxed.

D. Let yourself relax in a warm room for one or two people in single beds.

E. Check the updates on these tall tales (說大話) to save cash and add experience to your trip.

F. These days, many alternatives for the most popular routes mean that demand stays steady.

G. The best hotel prices are on travel websites.

【題目】According to a new study by a Chinese newspaper, many young Chinese people are forgetting how to write their traditional Chinese characters. It is quite common that most Chinese school children grow up remembering more than 3,000 Chinese characters. However, the study shows they seldom need to write them by hand and are forgetting these characters. Instead, young people today are using their mobile phones and computers to write in a system called “pinyin” on the key board. A list of characters then appears on the screen for the writer to pick out the right one. The report said 83% of the 2,072 respondents (調(diào)查對象) have problems writing characters, while 43% said they only write when they need to sign something.

The problem is that they often take up their pens and forget the characters. Chinese characters are the oldest writing system in use in the world. They date back over 3,000 years. University student Li Hanwei, 21, said, “I can remember the shape, but I can’t remember the strokes (筆劃) when I need to write it. It’s a bit of a problem. The phenomenon is common in China as well as in Japan, where Chinese characters are also used in writing.

【寫作內(nèi)容】

1. 以約30詞概括上文的主要內(nèi)容;

2. 以約120個(gè)詞就“Don’t forget Chinese characters” 為題,寫一篇短文,內(nèi)容包括如下要點(diǎn):

1)簡述漢字的遺忘現(xiàn)象;

2)簡析遺忘漢字的原因;

3)我們應(yīng)如何防止遺忘漢字,傳承中華文化。

【寫作要求】

你可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容但不得直接引用原文中的句子。
