第一节（共15个小题; 每题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A , B,C,D）中，选出最佳选项并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Thailand’s Phuket Island is an internationally famous beach destination .Beautiful sandy shores, parated by rocky headlands, give beauty to the entire west coast of the island, the largest in Thailand .The surrounding Andaman Sea is warm, clear and inviting, one of Phuket’s main attractions.
Onshore Phuket is a welcoming place that can quickly begin to feel like home. More than 100,000 foreign residents have chon to make a life here .Foreigners from across the globe have joined into the local community, transforming Phuket into a multicultural, international retirement destination.
One of the biggest appeals is the cost of living. Rent, especially, is a global bargain. You
can find a comfortable rental for as little as $350 to $400 per month, and most rentals come fully furnished. All things considered, including groceries, entertainment and your own motorbike for transportation. A retired couple could live here on a monthly budget of as little as $1,000.
Phuket Island’s l arge foreign population is scattered throughout veral towns and villages. Patong is the largest town on the west coast; it’s the one famous for its nightlife. To the north and south of Patong are the peaceful coastal towns of Surin, Kamala, Kata, Karon and many smaller
villages.
Another reason Phuket is so appealing as a retirement destination is that everything you need is available on the island, including top medical care and Thailand’s cond busiest international airport. Locals like to point out that they never have to go to Bangkok ever.
Phuket has something for nearly every budget .Again , if your retirement budget is limited ,
you could live inland , in Phuket Town or in one of the smaller villages on the north or south ends of the island , and enjoy a very comfortable and full life on as little as $1,000 per month . If your nest egg is more generous, you could live an elegant and affordable lifestyle in Patong or another upscale coastal village such as Surin and Karon.
