Attitudes to leisure have been much influenced by the modern love of moving around and by the ease of travel. The British enjoy the family outing. Most people choose well-known beauty spots, or seaside beaches. Others choose a lonely place, where there are very few people. They may follow tracks between the mountains and lochs and watch seals and seabirds. Food in British hotels and restaurants is reasonably cheap, but hotel rooms are not. The English people rent house or flats for their holidays, but one of the traditional ways of spending a summer holiday is in a boarding house. A house like this may have a card in its window advertising bed and breakfast. In seaside towns there are whole streets of houses, almost every one of which has such notice in window. In recent years several new holiday habits have developed. Among them; the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps. They consist usually of great numbers of small, and often quite comfortable, suburban houses, together with central dining halls, dancing halls and swimming pools. Camping holidays with tents are not so well developed in England as in France. The summer weather too often can be very unpleasant for tent-dwellers. What is true about the British people

A. They don’t like going outing with family members.
B. Seaside beaches are very popular for most of them.
C. They like driving their cars to travel.
D. They prefer to stay in hotels.

The air surrounding us is important to everyone. Without air, we could not exist. Everyone understands that. But air is necessary in many other ways — ways that are not always so obvious or widely known. If we did not have air, there would be no sound. Sound travels through air. Where there is no air, there is no sound. Without air there would be no fire. There would be no automobiles, since motors need air in order to operate. Without air, there would be no wind or clouds. The night time would be very cold and the days very hot. We would be forced to seek shelter from the sun, as there would be no atmosphere to protect us from the sun’s deadly rays. In this huge ocean of air surrounding the earth, there is more energy than in all the coal, oil and gas we have on the earth. Electrical energy is collected in the atmosphere as water is collected and stored in a dam (大坝). The existence of electricity in the air has been known for centuries. Men have gazed in wonder at the bright patterns of lightening in storm clouds. But thorough (彻底的,深入的) study of electricity in the air was not possible until the development of radio. It is not widely known that ______.

A. air is important to human being
B. air is important to the earth
C. air is necessary in many other ways
D. air is necessary to the animals
