Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question

I am Josh, I like travelling. Should we go and see cathedrals, museums and
monuments when travelling? I like many things about travelling, but queuing up to
buy museum tickets then having your visit ruined by noisy tour groups is not one of
them. The things making places special are all around the famous buildings, not inside
them.
My recent trip to India is one example. The most interesting part of it was getting
to know people - policemen riding elephants or children trying to earn some money by
cleaning shoes. It was all so amazing that I didn't need to do any 'proper' sightseeing.
I also have fantastic memories of Florence. It was boiling hot and the queue to the art
gallery was at least a kilometre long. Instead of joining it, I sat in a shady square and
listened to a man singing opera songs to only a few listeners.
One of the best things about travelling is creating memories to bring back. When I
got back home from a holiday in Malaysia, I made some of the dishes I'd tasted in the
food market. Maybe my results weren't as good, but they reminded me of the places
and the people I'd met - far better than anything from a souvenir shop. 41. What
