Road trips are one of the most popular holiday options, due to the high levels of excitement they bring. 1 Preparing for road trips can be a discouraging task. Below are some tips to be considered before starting one.

Get the travel documents ready. 2 In case the countries you want to visit demand a visa, it should be pre-arranged. This ensures a smooth relationship with the authorities, and faster processing at various border points.

Get the car ready. 3 In the case of a car hire, the driver needs to pick it a few days in advance and drive it around familiar roads. In the case of using a personal car, it should be driven into a service center for checks. One can also choose to put new tires on and ensure the engine is in condition.

4 When crossing borders with a personal car, you will need to have insurance that is recognized in the new country. The easiest way to ensure this is by getting an internationally recognized insurance company.

Have a map ready. The worst thing to do on a road trip is get lost in another

country. Car hire companies offer maps of various regions to their clients (客户). These maps have all the notable (显著的) physical features and main highways outlined well. 5

Though it’s somewhat mysterious (神秘的), sleep talking is a common phenomenon. 1 (and less than 10% do it every day). And roughly 67% of adults talk in their sleep at least once every three months. It often runs in families and tends to be more common among men.

2 — ranging from mumbling (咕哝) to complete sentences. Sometimes it may seem as though the sleep-talker is giving a speech, while at other times it can sound as though the person is carrying on a conversation with someone else. The chatter can occur during any stage of sleep.

If a friend or family member has ever told you that you talk in your sleep, your first concern might be whether you said something offensive or let out a long-held secret. 3 , as far as your health is concerned.

Sleep talking is considered a sleep disorder. In terms of what causes it, inadequate sleep, alcohol or drug use, illness, stress, anxiety, and depression are common causes of such unconscious thinking. 4 . In rare situations, sleep talking is associated with a psychiatric disorder (精神障碍).

If you’re frequently waking up tired, or you feel overwhelmed (不知所措的) or sad most of the time, it’s worth talking to your doctor about sleep talking. 5 . If you

talk in your sleep only occasionally and you are not experiencing symptoms of any other sleep disorders or health conditions, then it’s probably nothing to worry about.

A. It can be annoying to be a sleep-talker

B. Sleep talking can vary considerably in its content

C. About half of kids talk in their sleep at least once a year

D. Just make s ure that it isn’t a red flag for another health problem

E. Therefore, for most people it is a rare and short-lived occurrence

F. Your second thought might be whether sleep talking is something to worry about

G. Sometimes this nighttime chatter accompanies other sleep disorders such as sleepwalking

At the start of the 20th century, a new city was beginning to grow on some flat land near the sea in southern California; its name was Los Angeles. 1 . In America, they talked of “motion pictures (电影)”, but th is soon became shortened to “movies”.

America’s movie industry began life in New York, but by 1910, movie-makers were moving to Los Angeles. In New York, everything was too expensive, such as workers, land, and taxes. 2 . By contrast, the Los Angeles region was full of advantages. In California, they could make films all through the year, and everything was cheaper. 3 .

The movie-makers found what they needed a few miles outside Los Angeles, and before long, large new studios were being built in an area called Hollywood, at the foot of some small dry hills.

Movies quickly became very popular, particularly after “talkies (有声电影)” first appeared in 1925. 4 , and film companies needed money — lots of it. For this reason, Hollywood rapidly became dominated (支配) by a small number of big companies such as MGM, 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros. and Paramount.

5 , but most of them are still there. Some old names have disappeared, but some new ones have appeared, such as Walt Disney and Steven Spielberg’s

company Amblin.

Naturally, Hollywood has changed a lot so far! Today the biggest studios belong to huge international firms. For instance, News Corporation, which now owns Fox, also owns newspapers on three continents (including The Times of London), and satellite TV networks in America, Europe and Asia.

A. We now often go to the movies

B. However, movies were expensive to make

C. In particular, there was lots of land for sale

D. Like it or not, we all now live on planet Hollywood

E. Since then, the big companies have had their ups and downs

F. At the same time, a new industry was just being born: the cinema

G. Worse than that, it was difficult to make movies in winter, because it was too cold 答案
