Xu Hui is very excited. The Senior 1 student in a middle school in Beijing will go to South Korea with his parents during the Spring Festival.
“Overseas touring has always been a dream for me,” he said happily.
Nowadays, Chinese people enjoy longer holidays, such as the three “Golden Week Holidays”(the Spring Festival, May Day and National Day). They have more time to travel. Rising ines also make travelling abroad realistic for ordinary Chinese people.
Nearly 7 million Chinese travelled overseas in 2001, according to the National Tourism Administration(国家旅游局). The most mon problem travellers face is how to choose the best routes(路线).
By the end of 2002, Chinese citizens were allowed to travel to 19 foreign countries and regions at their own expense.
The top 10 places included Hong Kong, Macao and Thailand. European countries are also being increasingly popular.
“More and more Chinese people have shown interest in travelling to Europe, particularly France and Finland,” said Tan Wen, a general manager of China Youth Travel Service. “Sooner or later, there will be a peak(高峰) in European tours.”
Another consideration is choosing the right travel agencies and finding the best price. The China Consumers’ Association(CCA, 中国消费者协会) offered tips to consumers on choosing the right travel agencies to help prevent a relaxing vacation from turning into a costly disaster.
“Price should not be the single most important factor in choosing a travel agency,” said Zhang Yuanchao, CCA vice-secretary general. Consumers are advised to choose large State travel agencies with good reputations(名声) and official approval to organize overseas tour groups.
Zhang’s association dealt with more than 5, 000 plaints about travel agencies(旅行社) last year. And the majority of the plaints were about random changes in travel routes, bad tour guides, and forced shopping.
Travellers were warned to look carefully at their contracts(合同) with agencies and to buy travel insurance(保险).

(答案→)A
解析：中国人旅游的时间多了；收入又持续增长使得去国外旅游成为可能。去国外旅行最总要考虑自己经济能力。找一个靠得住的旅行社很不错。在选择旅行社时，每年都有很多的投诉，其中有中国消费者协会向消费者提供建议选择正确的旅行社以帮助不让一个放松的假期变成一个代价高的灾难。
【小题1】细节理解题。根据第三段段意：中国人旅游的时间多了；收入又持续增长使得去国外旅游成为可能。据此判断文章提到中国人去国外旅游原因有二。故选A。
【小题2】推测判断题。根据第二段: Rising ines also make travelling abroad realistic for ordinary Chinese people.(收入又持续增长使得普通的中国人去国外旅游成为现实。）和Price should not be the single most important factor in choosing a travel agency.（价格不应该成为选择旅行社的一个重要的理由。）判断:中国游客考虑的最大的问题应该是花费。结合常识理解D最佳。
【小题3】推测判断题。根据第八段的The China Consumers’ Association(CCA, ) offered tips to consumers on choosing the right travel agencies to help prevent a relaxing vacation from turning into a costly disaster. （中国消费者协会向消费者提供建议选择正确的旅行社以帮助不让一个放松的假期变成一个代价高的灾难。故选B。
【小题4】词义猜测题。把四个选项的意思代替random changes带入原句：And the majority of the plaints were about random changes in travel routes, bad tour guides, and forced shopping. （大多数的抱怨是关于随意改变旅游路线，旅游向导很糟糕，还有强迫购物。）推断：如果游客同意改变就不会有抱怨，所以排除A；如果旅行社按计划不做任何改变，那么也不会有抱怨产生，所以排除B；C意为旅行社拒绝改变路线，也和抱怨的意思相违背。通过排除法判断选D。
【小题5】归纳大意题。分析四个选项，结合文章大意判断：想给中国游客一些建与文章的大意更贴近。故选D 。
