【小題2】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Trips to museums and culture centers are also organized.”可知去博物館和文化中心是活動(dòng)的一部分內(nèi)容。故B正確。
【小題3】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)費(fèi)用這一欄，如果住在親戚家，可以節(jié)省賓館費(fèi)用400元，只需支付其他500元。故D正確。
【小題4】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)steps這一欄“The letters should be written in English with all the necessary information.”可知自我介紹和推薦信都應(yīng)該用英文書寫。故C正確。

Dear Friend,
The recent success of children's books has made the general public aware that there's a huge market out there.
And there's a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth of children's books bought each year ... plus stories and articles needed by over 650 publishers of magazines for children and teenagers.
Who are these needed writers? They're ordinary folks like you and me.
But am I good enough?
I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didn't know where to turn for help.
Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude（潛能）, and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.
The promise that paid off
The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you show basic writing ability:
You will complete at least one manuscript（手稿） suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course.
I really didn't expect any publication before I finished the course, but that happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute.
Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published children's books and over 300 stories and articles.
Free test and brochure
We offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.
Realize your writing dream today. There's nothing sadder than a dream delayed until it fades forever.
Sincerely,

Kristi Holly, Instructor
Institute of Children's Literature

Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.
AVOID BIG EVENTS  Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £169.15 at Booking.com. A week later, the same room cost £118.15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.
STAYAWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £62.95.
LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for £420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.
GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).  (358 words)
【小題1】 The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may __________.

A．help travelers pass time
B．a(chǎn)ttract lots of travelers to the UK
C．a(chǎn)llow travelers to make flexible plans
D．cause travelers to pay more for accommodation
【小題2】“Farringdon” in Paragraph 5 is most probably __________.
A．a(chǎn) hotel away from the train station
B．the tube line to Covent Garden
C．a(chǎn)n ideal holiday destination
D．the name of a travel agency
【小題3】The passage shows that the O’Neill Flat __________.
A．lies on the ground floor
B．is located in central London
C．provides cooking facilities for tourists
D．costs over £100 on average per day in late September
【小題4】Cardiff’s program allows a free bike for a maximum period of __________.
A．half an hour B．one hour C．one hour and a half D．two hours
【小題5】The main purpose of the passage is __________.
A．to tell visitors how to book in advance
B．to supply visitors with hotel information
C．to show visitors the importance of self-help
D．to offer visitors some money-saving tips
