40、ey for it解析：解析：根据题目中的 at the point of arrival 定位到第一段第二句。该句谈到如果在到达目的地后找不到行李，必须立即告知航空公司；第三、四句则说，航空公司会负责必要的寻找工作，并且会在找到后送达你的住所。B 项的 where you live 与文中的 your place of residence 同义，故为正确答案。(2).Before taking your air trip, you have to make sure _.（分数：2.00）A.of the restriction on luggage B.of the insurance f

41、or luggageC.who will pay for the excess luggageD.how much CIDA will pay for the excess luggage解析：解析：四个选项都涉及 luggage 的问题，根据选项定位到第二段。该段一开始就提出航空公司对行李的数量和重量有限制(restriction)并且各个航空公司有不同的规定，接着建议乘客在旅行前向航空公司询问关于行李的限额事宜(Inquire about luggage allowances)。所以推知 A 项为正确答案。(3).The charge for the excess luggage shou

43、attendB.the airline you travel withC.the Canadian International Development Agency D.the executive agency given in the Training Agreement解析：解析：本题询问如果你完全不知道应该把行李送往何处，你可以把它送到哪个地址。全文最后一句话表明，如果你对上述地址(指执行机构和要参加机构的地址)都不清楚，也可以使用 CIDA(加拿大国际开发总署)的地址。所以 C 项为正确答案。(5).The passage is mainly about CIDAs advice on

44、 _.（分数：2.00）A.the charge of your luggageB.the handling of your luggage C.the insurance of your luggageD.the transportation of your luggage解析：解析：文章第一段是关于行李丢失方面的措施以及投保的规定；第二段是关于行李的限额和付费方面的规定；第三和四段都是关于行李的运送地址的建议。总而言之，CIDA 是在说明如何把行李运送到一定地址，即如何处理你的行李，因此 B 项与其他各项相比最具有概括性，为正确答案。3.Task 2Directions：This task
