2 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever thought about travelling abroad but worried that you can't afford to visit all the places on your wish list? That doesn't mean you have to choose to stay at home. With a careful preparation, you can travel practically. How? 1 ______ Here are some suggestions for getting your accommodation for free or next to nothing.

2 ______ This exchange includes trading homes for a fixed time that both sides agreed on. It works best if your home is in a place where someone wants to pay a visit, and of course, your dates coincide. 3 ______

Or how about being a caretaker? Now things start to get interesting. 4 ______ If you're up for watering plants, taking care of the kitties now and then, and generally doing what needs to be done around the house, then you can stay for free. Learn more and start your search for a caretaking place by surfing the Internet.

There is another choice. 5 ______ Consider volunteer work or paid work exchange. If you've got a unique skill set, make the most of it and work for your accommodation rather than pay for it. It is also a good way to get insights into the local culture and lifestyle.

A. You can work for your accommodation.
B. Try home exchange.
C. Try to find it by yourself.
D. By thinking out of the box when it comes to where you stay.
E. There are many websites which you can use to look for fellow traders.

G. You don't have to share your own bedrooms with somebody else but to look after someone else's.
1. D
2. B
3. E
4. G
5. A

答案： 1. D 考查上下文语境。回答 How 提出的问题，用 by doing...，故选 D。2. B 考查段落主题句。空白处后面的内容介绍了换房旅行的具体做法，故本段的主题是房屋交换，因此选 B。3. E 考查上下文语境。本段的关键词是交换，而如何找到交换房屋的对象是很多人要考虑的，E 项给出了这方面的建议。4. G 考查段落主题句。本段的主题是告诉读者除了交换房屋外，要想借住他人房屋，有一个义务就是要照看好房子。5. A 考查上下文语境。空白处后面的内容介绍了用工作换取住宿的做法，A 项与之吻合，故选 A。
