People's tastes in recreation differ widely. At a recent festival of pop-music in the Isle of Wight, crowds of teenagers flocked to listen to their favorite singers and musicians. They went with single railway tickets and slept in the open, a very risky thing to do in the climate

of Britain, even in August. They were packed together like sardines for four days. There were innumerable thieves, a gang of roughs tried veral times to break things up, and police were everywhere. At the end of the festival many young fans found themlves broke, with no money left,and they had difficulty in getting back home. Most people would consider the conditions a nightmare of discomfort; the fans appeared to enjoy it all enormously.
Even in the overcrowded United Kingdom there are large tracts of open un-spoilt country, where people with more traditional tastes can go for quiet, and for the n of freedom they derive from contact with nature. In the national parks especially, modern development of housing and industry is strictly controlled. Visitors may walk for miles through landscape of the greatest beauty and wildness, and often of considerable historic or scientific interest. Along the coasts of some of the maritime counties, public pathways have been created; the paths stretch for many miles along cliffs that look out on the Atlantic Ocean or the English Channel. Another path,lying inland, goes along the range of mountains in the north of England. It is called the Pennine Way. Here, the long-distance
waller and the nature-lover can find much to enjoy, without feeling disturbed by large numbers of their fellows.
Yet few people make full u of the national parks established for everyone's benefit. The commonest thing nowadays is for family groups to motor out to a beautiful spot and park their cars in a lay-by ( 英国的路旁停车带 ). A picnic basket is produced, along with a folding table and chairs, a kettle and a portable stove. They then ttle down to a picnic in the lay-by beside the car. Apparently their idea of enjoyment is to get into the fresh air and amongst the country sights and sounds without having to wall a yard. They em almost to like to hear and to smell the traffic.

Passage Two
Questions 61 to 65 are bad on the following passage.
昆明一日游 Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping becau he needs something. His purpo is ttled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a condary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on proceeds at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction.
For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have eactly what he wants. In that ca the salesman, as the name implies, tries to ll the customer something el--he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly; he does so with skill and polish. "I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned. " Few men have patience with this treatment, a
nd the usual respon is: "This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on. "
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.
Her shopping is not often bad on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only"having a look around". She is always open to persuasion; indeed she ts great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent n of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the look-out for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dress, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps,before lecting the dress she wants to try on. It is a laborious process, but apparently an enjoyable one. So most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
