【答案】
【1】D
【2】A
【3】C

【5】F
【解析】
试题分析:这是一则说明文。主要介绍了旅行中所出现的最常见的错误以及正确的做法。
【1】D后半句的意思是但是如果在旅行时有不好的事情发生,并且你也没有上保险,那么你就要付数千美元了。根据but可知前后句为转折关系,因此在意思上是相反的。故选D项,许多人认为“我离开的时间很短,我不会有事的”。这样前后句在意思上衔接紧密。
【2】A前面提到如果在旅行时有不好的事情发生,并且你也没有上保险,那么你就要付数千美元了,因此应该做的事情就是要买保险。故选A项。
【3】C横线后的句子为提示句。意思是使用ATM取出现金,使用信用卡去购物。看看你所要去参观的那个地方是否有你卡所在银行的ATM,这样就会毫不费事地从当地取到钱。
【4】B这一段是关于订机票的介绍。这两种做法是马上订机票或者一直等到最后一刻才去订,两种都是错误的。根据句意故选B项,与前后句在意思上衔接紧密。
【5】F根据小标题Asking where to eat the wrong way可知本段介绍的是和吃有关系的内容,再者根据横线前的句子,可知F项正确。
