二、任务型阅读。
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容完成下列各题。
There are several ways you can find out about the countries and cities you wish to visit. You can talk to your friends who have traveled to the places, you can see a color film about them, or you can read a travel book.
It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first kind is the book that gives a personal, subjective(主观的) idea of travels which its writer has got in person. This kind of book can be useful if the writer shares his traveling experiences with others. The second kind is the book which gives objective(客观的) information of things to be done and seen. If a cultured person has written such a book about the facts of a place, then it is more useful. The third kind is the book which is called “a guide” to a place. If it is good, it will describe and explain the place in detail for visitors. Like the first kind, the third kind can be interesting and exciting, but the main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way. Whatever kind of travel book you get, you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting, exciting or fantastic. You must also pay attention to its time of publication(出版), _________ many things change quickly in the 21st cen-tury. Finally, you should make sure that it’s easy to find the useful information for your travel.
It’s necessary to plan the journey be-fore you start it. We often advise visitors to get a good travel book to help with it.
