Question

Ann was on her first package trip in Rosas, Spain.

At the hotel, she checked in, and then went to her room to change before dinner. She was just ready to go downstairs when she found that her Spanish money wasn’t in her handbag. She carefully looked in all her luggage, but she couldn’t find it. All she had was a small purse with ten English pound notes in it!

Ann found a place to change her English money. She had very few pesetas(西班牙貨幣單位), and she would be here for two weeks. On her way back to the hotel, Ann bought some cheese, some bread and some oranges. When she got back, she told the manager that her doctor had told her not to eat Spanish food; she’d just have breakfast each day, as she knew the price of hotels included breakfast.

For the rest of her holiday, Ann swam in the hotel swimming pool, or lay on the beach and got a sunbath. When the other tourists went to interesting places, she always said she wasn’t well. In fact, her holiday wasn’t bad, except that she was always hungry. After all, a piece of fruit for lunch, and bread and cheese for supper isn’t very much.

Late in the afternoon of their last day, a girl, Jane, asked her why she never ate with them in the hotel restaurant. Ann told her about her money problems. Jane looked at her for a minute, and then said, “But didn’t you know? The price of this holiday includes everything!”

試題分析：本文敘述了Ann在一次去西班牙旅行的時候，由于不小心把自己的錢弄丟了，這嚴重影響了她的吃飯問題，她認為這次旅行只提供早飯，不包括午飯和晚飯，因為自己的錢不多了，所以她也不敢去看名勝，剩下的兩頓飯只吃些水果充饑，把自己餓壞了，最后Jane告訴了她這是一次大包干的旅行，她非常吃驚。

1.細節理解題。根據The price of this holiday includes everything!”大包干的旅行，包括吃飯住宿等，故選D。

2.細節理解題。根據Ann told her about her money problems. 她把錢丟了，所以她怕拿不出錢來吃飯，故選A。

3.細節理解題。根據After all, a piece of fruit for lunch, and bread and cheese for supper isn’t very much.可知她買這些是為了午飯和晚飯吃的，故選B。

4.推理判斷題。根據因為Ann認為這次旅行只包括早飯，不包括午飯和晚飯所以她聽了Jane的話后應該感覺很吃驚，故選C。
