Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions from 28 to 32. (1.25 points)
The first thing to do when you have a trip abroad is to check that your passport is valid. Holders of out-of-date
passports are not allowed to travel overseas. Then you can prepare for your trip. If you don’t know the language, you
can have all kinds of problems communicating with local people. Buying a pocket dictionary can make a difference.
You’ll be able to order food, buy things in shops and ask for directions. It’s worth getting one.
Also, there’s nothing worse than arriving at your destination to find there are no hotels available. The obvious way to
avoid this is to book in advance. This can save you money, too. Another frustrating thing that can happen is to go
somewhere and not know about important sights. Get a guide book before you leave and make the most of your trip.
It’s a must.
Then, when you are ready to pack your clothes, make sure they are the right kind. It’s no good packing sweaters and
coats for a hot country or T-shirts and shorts for a cold one. Check the local climate before you leave.
In addition, think carefully about how much you pack in your bags. It’s easy to take too many clothes and then not
have enough space for souvenirs. But make sure you pack essentials. What about money? Well, it’s a good idea to
take some local currency with you but not too much. There are conveniently located cash machines (ATMs) in most
big cities, and it’s usually cheaper to use them than change your cash in banks. When you are at your destination,
other travelers often have great information they are happy to share. It could enhance your traveling experience.

A. The benefits of traveling B. Things to avoid when you go abroad
C. Tips for travelers overseas D. How to find ATMs in big cities
