第一篇:
Many students and young people travel to Europe. It may seem like an expensive land, but there are some ways to
explore Europe on a budget.
First, research your trip before you go. Read more travel guides and online articles, and you will have a better chance to
find less costly places.
Second, stay in a B&B instead of a hotel. Short for “bed and breakfast”, a B&B is a kind of homestay where breakfast is
served, and may cost just half of a hotel price. Look for a B&B that offers cleaner rooms and serves large, hot breakfasts. And
you may not need to eat lunch. Eating only two meals a day will save a lot.
Third, eat where local people go. Do not always go to restaurants that are for tourists. This will not only save you money
but also let you experience the local culture. You may even meet new friends and have great conversations. Fourth, remember that there are many ways to move from country to country or from city to city in Europe. Trains, buses
and airlines are all available. Therefore, it is better to wait until you arrive in Europe. Then you can find out which is the best
choice at the best price. Sometimes, buying a ticket at the last minute will save you a great deal. Also, flying can be much
cheaper than you think. There are discount airlines that fly between countries and cities at very low prices. Finally, keep in mind that many of the best attractions in Europe are free. Just sightseeing will not cost anything.
Knowing how to tour Europe with less expense will give you a longer trip with great memories and no worries.
【題組】43. Why does the article say that many attractions in Europe are free?
(A) You are free to go to those places at any time or any day.
(B) You are free to do or say almost anything at those places.
(C) If you just take a look at the scenery there, you don’t need to pay.
(D) Those places are free if you go there with a European citizen.

A word first coined in 1918, but rarely used today, may become a more frequently used part of
the English lexicon. That word is "hangry," which is a combination of the words "hungry" and
"angry". It means to be bad tempered or irritable as a result of hunger. The word is making a
comeback because of research that suggests "hanger" is a diagnosable feeling. Researchers believe
"hangriness" could be a genuine medical phenomenon. Scientists from the UK's Anglia Ruskin
University examined how hunger affects emotions during our daily lives. Lead author Professor
Viren Swami said the research indicated a strong link between hunger and feelings of anger,
irritability, or low pleasure. The researchers analyzed data from 64 volunteers aged between 18 and 60. The participants
had to complete surveys on a smartphone app five times a day for 21 days. The app helped people
to give researchers real-time information on their feelings when they were hungry. Dr. Swami
explained this provided a "meaningful" link between hunger and emotions. He said that the results
of the study suggested that the experience of being hangry is real. He added: "We show, for the first
time in a non-laboratory setting, that feeling hungry is associated with greater anger, irritability and
lower levels of pleasure." He suggested that if people knew they were hangry, they could control
their anger better. 【題組】47. What might people be able to control if they understand hanger?
(A) Their pleasure (B) Their desire (C) Their anger (D) Their sorrows
