In general, pack lightly, with only the most basic clothes. People dress casually(随便地) in Eastern Europe, so you dont need to bring along your smartest clothing.Batteries: If your camera, flash, or other appliances run on batteries, bring enough supply along. Certain types of batteries dont exist in Eastern Europe, and those that do often dont last very long.Cash: We have found it good to have supply of small-unit U.S. bills($1and $5) to use in hardcurrency stores, to buy international train tickets, etc. The hardcurrency stores never seem to have the right change.Electric Current Adapter(转换器): If you bring any appliances, remember that the electricity in Eastern Europe uses 220 volts A.C., not the standard 110 volts of North America. A 110 volts appliance will soon burn out when attached to an unchanged 220-volt plug.Language Tools: One of Europes biggest challenges is communicating with the local people since their languages are so different from our own. To help overcome difficulties, you might buy phrasebooks before you go you wont find them once you are in Eastern Europe.Money Belt: A money belt is especially helpful when you have many documents to carry around ( as you always do in Eastern Europe). The best one we find is made by Eagle Greek Travel Gear, 143 Cedros Ave. (P. O. box 651), Solona Beach, CA 92075 (tel. 619/755 9399, or toll free 800/874 9925) outside California.Travelers Checks: These are necessary. Bring your travelers checks in small to medium unit ($10, $20, or $50) to change a little bit at a time, so as not to be left with a lot of local money. To be on the safe side, be sure to copy down the check numbers in two places, just in case something happens to the checks. （1）How many tips are mentioned in the passage?A . 6.B . 7.C . 8.D . 9.（2）Which of the following things may be the biggest challenge in Eastern Europe?A . Appliances.B . Money.C . Language.D . Clothes.（3）Which of the following statements is NOT a fact according to the passage?A . No shop in Eastern Europe accepts hard currency.B . Travelers may need to carry many documents in Eastern Europe.C . The electricity in Eastern Europe uses 220 volts A.C.D . Eastern European languages can be a problem to foreign travelers.（4）Whats the writers purpose of writing this passage?A . To tell you its not easy to stay in Eastern Europe.B . To give you some advice on what you should pack when youre in Eastern Europe.C . To tell you something about the life in Eastern Europe.D . To show you the life in Eastern Europe is different from that in your country.（5）What do the underlined words “change” and “check” probably mean according to the given dictionary entries(词条)?change1. V to become different改变；变化2. V to exchange money into the money of another country 兑换3. U the money that you get back when you have paid for sth giving more money than the amount it costs 找给的零钱；找头check1. V to examine sth to see if it is correct, safe or acceptable 检查；审查2. C an act of making sure that sth is safe, correct or in good condition by examining it 检查；查看3. C a printed form that you can write on and sign as a way of paying for sth instead of using money 支票A . 1; 3B . 3; 3C . 2; 3D . 2; 211. （10分） (2011咸宁）One afternoon, my son came home from school and asked me, “Are all people the same even if their skin color is different?” I thought for a moment, then I said, “Ill explain.
