阅读理解     Traveling should be easy and enjoyable, and one of the ways to make sure your trip remains fun is
to know exactly how to keep your valuables safe.
      If you are traveling alone, distribute (分散) your money through your luggage. Place most of it in
a wallet and put the wallet in your main suitcase or bag. Make a rough estimate of how much money
you will need on the journey, till you reach your destination. Add, say, $100 to that. Place this money
in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket. Spend from this wallet till you get to your destination.
If you are traveling with someone, distribute the money among yourselves.
      Instead of wearing your jewelry(珠宝), you can put your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or
bag. DO NOT carry it in your purse; just in case somebody is very quick in stealing your purse; or in
case you misplace your purse. In addition, if you are going to be frequently opening your purse for
things like tickets and phone numbers, what if you accidentally just drop it?
     Have you ever seen a mini backpack purse? It looks really fashionable and is very smart. Plus, it"s
really convenient to use. The best thing to do is to sling(悬挂) the mini backpack purse in the front, like
a baby carrier. There are two big advantages to do this: one, your hands remain free to carry your
luggage and other things; and two, your purse is always monitored, and it is just under your nose.
     Credit cards are very useful in many ways. But if you misplace your credit card, it is quite easy for
someone else to find it and use it to his/her maximum benefit before you even realize you have lost it!
If you lose cash, you lose only that much cash as you are carrying. But a lost credit card means the
money in your bank account is lost. So always try to use cash instead of credit card while traveling.

1. Which of the following statements does the author probably disagree with?

A. Putting your money in different wallets.
B. Putting your jewelry in your purse.
C. Carrying a mini backpack purse.
D. Using cash instead of credit cards.

2. Carrying a mini backpack purse can help you because _____.

A. it is convenient to carry and monitor.
B. it is easy for you to carry your baby.
C. it reduces the burden on your back.
D. it can be used to carry more things.

3. What can we learn from the text?

A. You shouldn"t spend money until you reach your destination.
B. Putting jewelry at the bottom of a bag is safer.
C. One should carry a fashionable backpack purse while traveling.
D. Credit cards are not as convenient as cash while traveling.

4. What is the main idea of the text?

A. Ways to make traveling fun and enjoyable.
B. Tips on carrying valuables safely while traveling.
C. Advice on travelers" personal safety.
D. Things to consider before traveling.

A twisted sense of humor and a strong voice cast(演出人员) make "Open Season" fun for kids and adults. It"s a great start for Sony"s animation studio.
Boog is a full-grown grizzly(灰熊)bear that has been raised among humans by park ranger Beth. He has a warm place to live, all the food he wants, and is safe from hunters.
However, when he crosses paths with the spastic(大脑性麻痹的) mule deer Elliot, all that changes. Thanks to a series of misunderstandings, everyone believes Boog is dangerous and out of control. Beth is forced to release(释放) him back into the wild.
Once Boog finds himself in the great outdoors, he has no idea what to do. He gets lost, can"t find food, and is attacked by unfriendly forest cutters. Boog is forced to rely on the idiotic Elliot to help him find his way back to civilization(文明). But can they make it before open season begins for hunting?
The movie also has a really strong voice cast. Martin Lawrence voices Boog, and his attitude and persona(人格面具)perfectly fit the bear. The same goes for Aston Kutcher as Elliot. Even if you can"t stand him in the real world, you"ll be surprised how well he brings the annoying deer to life in the movie.
