The May Day holiday gives Chinese families a good chance to travel and leave behind the daily routine(日,嵤拢.
When the seven-day vacation was first put in place in 2000, groups of Chinese tourists went to the mountains “to see temples and get off buses to take photos”. However, as Chinese travellers diversified(使多樣化) their interests, more and more people decided to travel on their own.
Millions of families with their own cars prefer to travel by car.
Cui Xiaotang, a career(職業(yè)) woman, and her two friends left from Beijing Saturday in a car. They did not have a firm destination but drove southwards. “Maybe when there is no road for cars, we will stop and stay one night in a local farmer’s house,” Cui said excitedly about her plan.
Exchanges between north and south and between cities and rural areas are two trends emerging(出現(xiàn)) during the holiday.
Northerners can enjoy the beauty of southern rivers, while southerners can travel to cooler parts of the country.
While millions of travellers made their way to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, people there decided to go somewhere else.
A large number of tourists join groups with plans to travel abroad. Every year, those groups go farther and farther away. There are also those, however, who choose to stay where they are.
Sun Bin, a graduate student representing a large number of “stayers”, chose the simplest way to avoid tourist crowds during the holiday. “I’d rather stay in the Beijing Library for the seven days to read National Geographic magazine. I have the whole world in my mind but avoid queuing up in the airport,” he said.
1. More and more people would like to travel on their own, because ______.

認真閱讀下列短文,并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一個最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意:每個空格只填1個單詞。
You probably have lists of remember and steps to follow in order to have the best pet-friendly trip.There are, however, a few things that are best left at home.Here are a few things to forget when you’re traveling with pets.Forgetting them will make your trip run more smoothly and more effectively.
Time
Traveling with pets will take longer and will have unexpected turns.In reality, forgetting about time means leaving impatience behind.Don't be in a rush.Your pets will require more extra stops than you will, and they'll often surprise you with unpredictable delays.Plan on leaving early and arriving later and you'll be right on time.
Anger
Getting angry at the delay will only make matters worse.Your feelings can add unnecessary stresses to you and your pets’ travel experience.If you feel yourself becoming out of control, stop and take a deep breath.Your pets have little control over their emotions, bowel movements, or motion sickness when traveling.Remember to be kind and understanding at all times, especially when under pressure.
Work Attitude
This may seem like a no-brainer, but when you are traveling, leave your work attitude behind.Traveling is not a task to be accomplished; it can be an enjoyable and memorable experience for both you and your pets as long as you have the right attitude.
Control
Part of the joy of traveling with pets is dealing with the unexpected.You can't control everything and trying to do so will only end in frustration and anger.Knowing that things will happen beyond your control will bring great relief to you and your pets.Messes happen; accidents happen.Once you accept that, traveling with your pets will be far easier to manage.
Selfishness
Traveling with pets often requires an extreme amount of selflessness.Your pets rely on you to take care of their needs, and sometimes you will need to put their needs before your own.Leave your selfish ambitions behind when traveling with your pets.They need your attention and care more than anything else because of the stresses and strains of traveling.
Traveling with pets can and will be a joy if you remember to leave these five items behind.It can be difficult at times to handle, but the traveling will go well if you can manage to do so.

Students and Technology in the Classroom
I love my blackberry—it’s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer,as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices(設(shè)備) and truly communicate with others.
On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule —no laptop, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.
Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.
The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion.
I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.
I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I’m sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.
1.Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with____
A.the course material B.the author’s class regulations
C.discussion topics D.others’ misuse of technology
2.The underlined word “engage ”in para.4 probably means ____
A.explore B.a(chǎn)ccept C.change D.reject
3.According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may ____
A.keep students from doing independent thinking
B.encourage students to have in-depth conversations
C.help students to better understand complex themes
D.a(chǎn)ffect students’ concentration on course evaluation
4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ____
A.is quite stubborn
B.will give up teaching history
C.values technology-free dialogues in his class
D.will change his teaching plan soon
