When you are traveling in Thailand(泰国), which means of transport is the best choice?
You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand。 It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north。 The most popular bikes are the little 125 cc Honda Dream which you can get for about 150 baht (铢) a day or as little as 3,000 baht per month，making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries。
Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi。 When you are in cities in Thailand， especially in Bangkok, always remember to get a taxi that is going on the roads。 Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the milometer （计程表） .They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter！
The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good,so renting cars is another way to get around. The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable （合理的） price. It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West。 Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand， more expensive than American prices, but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe. In the past, Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in-signs were generally in Thai（泰语) only， making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around。 But now, the situation is improved. In a lot of places， even the farthest corners of the country, street signs are in both Thai and English.
8。 To a foreigner， the cheapest way to get around Thailand is renting a ________。
A。 car B。 taxi C. bike D. motorbike

A. there were too many traffic jams on the roads
B。 there were no signs showing directions
C。 the signs were written only in their own language
D。 the quality of the roads was not good
11. In which part of a magazine can this passage be found?
A。 Entertainment B。 Tourism
C. Market D. Advertisement

A good relationship between students and teachers makes the classroom a more inviting place。 When you like your teacher， it's easier to pay attention to his explanations and improve your grades. When your teachers consider you as a friend， they’ll feel more open in class。 16 Now here are some tips to develop a friendly relationship with your teachers。
17 If you have any questions， ask them. That will make them notice you。 But never ask questions you already know the answers to. If your teachers realize that you are not asking real questions, they might think that you’re not actually trying to learn, but only trying to make an impression。
18 When you see one of your teachers in the hall， greet him and ask if he’s going to that concert. Most of the teachers are happy to chat with their students。 After a while， they may start to talk with you abut non-school subjects in the classroom。
19 It is very easy to develop a friendly relationship with any of your teachers。 20 However， don't forget that no matter how good friends you are， they will still be your teachers and deserve your respect.
