Ex 4 Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Staying in hotels and resorts has been a traditional part of travel since the beginning of mass

tourism But nowadays, many tourists want a more intimate experience For this reason, they

are choosing to “go native” This often means staying in the kinds of places that local people inhabit In big cities, you can try staying with the friend of a friend You may end up sleeping

on the couch or floor, but the advantages outweigh the discomfort The biggest plus is that you'll be staying with a local and seeing the city from a local perspective

Another option is house-swapping Several websites allow you to connect with people who want to trade living situations It's usual to exchange emails about favourite places in the city before the swap, meaning you can have a truly local experience But of course, you can only do this if you don't mind having strangers staying in your house

For the more adventurous, staying in a native structure in an African village or a hut on the water in Vietnam or Thailand can be a real thrill These might not even include plumbing or

electricity, and that is part of the charm The experience of dealing with oil lamps and carrying

water really gives you a sense of how the people live

Ex 4 Dịch bài đọc:

Ở trong khách sạn và khu nghỉ dưỡng là một nét truyền thống kể từ đầu kỳ nguyên du lịch đại chúng Thế nhưng ngày nay nhiều du khách muốn một trải nghiệm gần gũi hơn Vì lý do này họ chọn “loại hình du lịch bản địa" Điều này thường có nghĩa là ở tại nơi cư trú của người dân địa phương Trong các thành phố lớn, bạn có thể thử ở với bạn của một người bạn Bạn có thể phải ngủ trên ghế dài hoặc săn nhà, nhưng có nhiều ích lợi hơn sự khó chịu Điểm cộng lớn nhất là bạn sẽ ở với người dân địa phương và quan sát thành phổ từ góc nhìn của dân địa phương Một lựa chọn khác là hoán đổi nhà Một số trang web cho phép bạn kết nối với những người muốn hoán đổi hoàn cảnh sống Thường có trao đổi thư điện tử về những địa điểm yêu thích trong thành phố trước khi đổi, có nghĩa là bạn có thể có trải nghiệm địa phương thực sự Nhưng

dĩ nhiên bạn chỉ có thể làm vậy nếu không bận tâm đến việc có người lạ ở trong nhà bạn

Phiêu lưu hơn, ở trong một kiến trúc bản địa thuộc một ngôi làng châu Phi hay một túp lều trên mặt nước ở Việt Nam hay Thái Lan có thể là một chiêm nghiệm thực sự Ở đó thậm chí không

có đường ống nước hay điện, và đó chính là điều làm nên sự hấp dẫn Trải nghiệm với đèn dầu

và gánh nước thực sự giúp bạn cảm nhận cuộc sống của con người

Bạn thấy thiếu phiêu lưu thể nào không quan trọng, bạn có thể muốn cân nhắc việc gạch các khách sạn ra khỏi danh sách Tim hiểu cuộc sống của người địa phương là phần đáng giá nhất của chuyến du lịch Còn cách nào để làm điều đó tốt hơn là ở tại chính nơi ở của người địa phương?
