问题      Not all trips are holidays. For example, when people travel on business, they don’t have the time or the peace of mind to enjoy themselves. But when people take a vacation, do they always have fun?
    The fact is some people who travel for pleasure get no pleasure from it at all. Others, who travel because they must travel, have a lot of fun doing it. What makes one trip more enjoyable than another?
     Any trip can be enjoyable if it is well planned. Every minute that you spend planning your trip may save ten minutes of trouble during your trip. It may also add an hour of pleasure!
     Many resorts and cities around the world are popular during some months of the year and less popular during other months. Find out if the places you are visiting have an "in" season and an "off" season. This may help you decide when you want to go.
     There are some very good reasons to travel during the off-season. Usually everything is much cheaper. It is also less crowded, of course. If you don’t have a lot of money or if you don’t like crowds of tourists go in the off-season.
      Some places are not as exciting during the off-season. The weather may be too cold or too hot. The beaches may be closed. Hotels and restaurants may be shut. Be sure to find out before you go.
     There was a time when a person could decide to leave the country on Monday and get on a boat on Tuesday. Now everyone must give a passport to go abroad. It is not hard to get a passport, but you should ask for one a few months before you begin your journey. To get one, you must have your birth certificate or another legal document to prove that you are a citizen. You will probably also need to bring a few photographs of yourself and some money. For more information call or write the passport office.
      Sometimes you need a visa to visit a country. If a visa is necessary you can ask for one at the country’s embassy. Sometimes getting a visa takes many months, so it is very important to plan early. The same is true of health certificates. For this information it is a good idea to call or write the embassies. You may also get a lot of other useful information from them.  
What is unnecessary when applying for a passport?
选项 A、Your birth certificate.
B、Legal document to prove that you are a citizen.
C、A few photographs of yourself and some money.
D、Professional qualifications.
答案D
解析 细节题。文章最后一段讲了需要准备的材料，可知申请护照时职业资格是不需要的。所以应选D。
