单选题 Food is one of the most pleasurable things in life, but may he the most terrible thing when you're traveling with kids. When kids get hungry, they get noisy, and no matter where you are, it's no fun. Food is also a big part of travel expenses for a family. Eating out in restaurants all the time can cost a lot of money and no kids want to wait for a long time to eat a meal. Here are some tips to help you to have fun and save money. Start the day right. Breakfast can be a simple matter. To save money, if you're traveling by car, bring breakfast with you, or shop in a supermarket after you check into your hotel. Many hotels have fridges, so all you need is milk, juice, fruit, bread, cups and plastic containers.
After eating in your room, breakfast is out of the way. When you leave your hotel, you're ready to start sightseeing. Have picnics. Picnics are fun for everyone in the family. You don't need to wait for a long time for food to be served, or keep telling your kids to behave. Whatever you're eating, it tastes delicious. Afterwards you can relax while the kids run around. You can have a picnic anywhere-in a grassy city park, at the seaside, sitting next to a stream. And picnics aren't for lunch only-bring a picnic to the beach at sunset. You can have a picnic wherever you are, even in a big city, and picnics don't cost much! Buying your picnic is part of the fun and you can shop to please everyone's tastes in your family. Supermarkets are open day and night, and usually have a deli(熟食店) where you can have everything you need for a picnic.

单选题 Compared with eating out, bringing your own breakfast ______.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析] 细节题。第四句Eating out in restaurants all the time cost a lot of money,and no kids want to wait for a long time to eat a meal.暗示在饭店吃饭太贵,等待时间又长,因此A和D选项不对。根据文中when you leave your hotel, you're ready to start sightseeing. Have picnics.可以推断C选项不对,应该是Picnic allows you to eat when you go sightseeing.文中说Breakfast can be a simple matter. To save money, if you're traveling by car, bring breakfast with you,…。由此可以推断出来旅行时带上自己的早餐要方便得多。
