    Some students may want to travel by car. Be sure to think about going with other students— many colleges have "ride boards" that list when and where other students plan to travel.

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[参考译文] 学生们如果遵循以下建议,就能花费很少的钱在美国游玩。
   旅行社会提供特价火车票、汽车票和飞机票的信息。你也可以考虑在部分旅途中徒步或骑车,这样不仅可以省钱,还可以欣赏到更多的乡村景色。
   有些学生或也许想要自驾出行。那一定要考虑和同学一起出游。很多大学都有“旅游信息板”,上面会列出何时何地有什么学生打算出游。许多电台也会提供同样的服务,他们会告知谁开车去那里,可以搭乘多少人,以及花费是多少。
   在汽车站或火车站旁边会有很多便宜但稍旧些的旅店。查阅一下旅游手册,找到最好酒店的名字。美国很多地方都有青年旅舍,年轻人只需花几美元就可以住一晚上。
   你不需要每次都在饭店用餐,但是我们也不建议你吃太多甜食、喝太多可乐。通常在在饭店里,你可以吃到健康便宜的早餐。如果天气暖和,你可以在超市或路边摊铺买些食品,来次野餐做午餐。至于晚餐,你可以从旅行手册上或朋友那里了解到一些便宜又好吃的饭店的名字。
