阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。
1 .This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.
In 1970, a young German school master had an idea which changed this situation.He decided to turn his little school into a dormitory(宿舍楼)for the summer holidays.Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money.The idea was a success.A few years later, the school house was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. 2 .This was the first hostel.(青年招待所).
Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to know each other.When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their cards of membership in a hostel organization in their own country. 3 .
Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or world will happen to meet at the same hostel.They may put their food together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of dishes.Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs, or short talks followed by a question period. 4 .For this reason, a few weeks spent“hosteling”can be just as useful a part of one's education as classes in school.
