Ⅱ.阅读理解七选五
Question：I'm an active mom with two boys. __1__ Both of us enjoy swimming, but my sons enjoy hanging out on the beach. Can we enjoy our family vacation with two young kids? Do you have any good suggestions for our family vacation?
Answer: For many people, the idea of taking their young children on vacation means there will be no vacation at all. __2__ Here are some tips for making your first family trip enjoyable.
•Plan ahead

There is no such thing as the “best” family resort. Which resort is best for your family depends on the age of your kids and the interests of every member in your family. __3__
•__4__

•Once you know what your family need, search for the best place for vacation that has a little of something for everyone. Many parents think they have to give up their 2 weeks' vacation a year and give totally to the kids. In fact, plenty of places offer things for adults as well as little ones.
•Consider your child­care needs
Most places have child­care during the day, but then you have to take care of your kids in the evening. __5__ Choose such place so that you can enjoy some time alone.
A. Strike a balance
B. Don't forget to take the camera
C. My husband and I are planning our first family vacation.
