【解析】在應(yīng)歸旅游期間租用汽車是一個不錯的選擇，文章介紹了租車的詳細(xì)規(guī)定及注意事項。

【1】C

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)廣告中What’s not included a) Personal accident insurance.可知答案為C。

【2】A

推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段Should you be forced to cancel your car hire booking after payment in full (two weeks before date of hire),a cancellation charge of 12 will be made.如果要取消租用預(yù)定，要交 12的違約金，正好與預(yù)定費一樣多，可推知如果汽車租用者在支付雇傭全成本后改變他們的想法，租金不退回。故選A。

【3】B

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。在“ Conditions of Hire”的第1 條中，講的最優(yōu)惠的價格是訂3天。故選B。

【題目】This is a photo of a similar car I own. It’s a photo of a Skoda Fabia, I drive one too. A young guy also got out of a similar car as I was getting close to mine. I laughed and was prepared to leave. The young guy continued to have a conversation with me.

He asked me how I found the car. It turned out that it was his first day to drive the car and it was new and it was a gift from his parents and he’d just passed his driving test today! What a coincidence (巧合)!

Well, this was a special moment for Nicholas. Who gets a new car the day they learn to drive and then drives into a garage and has a talk with a woman who’s driving the same model of car? Yes, beautiful synchronicity (同步性) in full view.

I wanted to make this moment special for Nicholas, and I wanted to gift him something. Thinking on my feet, I thought I’d buy him a lottery ticket (彩票) but it wasn’t special enough.

I got into my car and removed my Guardian Angel key ring which I had attached to my front mirror. It was there to keep me safe. My birthday is on Guardian Angel’s Day too, so this is very special to me. I gave it to Nicholas and he was happy to receive it. Nicholas gave me a big hug.

Nicholas was not an overconfident guy. He also told me his mum was only out of hospital and now he’d be able to help her get about.

I’ll order myself another Guardian Angel key ring for my car for fear that my Guardian Angel will not be protecting me without the key ring. As for Nicholas, well, I wish he and his passengers a lifetime of safe driving.

【1】What caused the conversation between the author and the young guy?

A. A similar car.

B. It was a coincidence.

C. It was unlucky for him.

D. It was untrue.

【3】What did the author do for the guy?

A. She drove him home.

B. She bought him a ticket.

C. She offered him a birthday gift.

D. She gave him a special present.

【4】What was the author going to do next after meeting the guy?

【題目】Spider monkeys have long, thin arms with hook-like hands that allow them to swing through the trees. They do not have opposable thumbs (對生拇指).

The brown-headed spider monkey has a prehensile (纏繞性的) tail, which means it can grasp and can be used like a fifth leg to grab trees. During the day, the spider monkey searches for fruits, which make up the main part of its diet. They will also eat flowers, seeds，leaves, and small insects during the dry season when fruits aren’t available. They spend most of the daylight hours climbing and swinging through the high branches of trees.

The brown-headed spider monkey lives in a large community of about 20 to 100 male and female monkeys. They split into smaller groups for feeding. Females usually give birth to only a single baby each year or two. Young monkeys are carried on their mothers’ stomachs until about 16 weeks old. Then they are strong enough to ride on their mothers, backs. All brown-headed spider monkey babies are born with pink faces and ears.

Spider monkeys hug each other and wrap their tails around each other. They are very intelligent and have strong memories. They were named spider monkeys because they look like spiders as they hang upside down from their tails with their arms and legs swinging. Their genus (屬) name is Ateles, which means “imperfect”. This refers to the fact that they don’t have thumbs.

Hunting the brown-headed spider monkey is now barred in Ecuador, a country in northwestern South America, but humans have killed them for their meat for hundreds of years.

【1】Spider monkeys live mostly on .

A. insects B. fruits

C. flowers D. leaves

【2】What can we learn about spider monkeys?

A. They have five legs.

B. They live in small groups.

C. Their tails can take their weight.

D. Their genus is the same as spiders.

【3】What does the underlined word “barred” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. Permitted. B. Forbidden.

C. Encouraged. D. Ignored.

【4】Where do newly-born spider monkeys stay?

A. In a large community.

B. In trees with high branches.

C. On their mothers’ backs.

D. On their mothers’ stomachs.
