【走向高考】2014届高三英语二轮专题复习 强化提升 习题狂练（高考体验题组：11-13年真题+高考模拟题组：13年一模二模）：阅读理解 题型1 高考体验题组 (一) A (2013·全国Ⅰ，A) Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my familys last vacation. It was my six-year-old sons winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip.
