III. Read the passage and answer the following questions.
Camping holidays are always popular with students and young people – they are a cheap and easy way to see a country. People often travel by train, by coach or on foot, so one thing is important to remember before starting: you can only take with you what you can carry – usually in a rucksack on your back. If you travel with a friend, of course some items can be shared – a tent, a gas stove, food. Other things must be taken by each person – clothes, footwear, a sleeping bag. So you must be sure of how much you can carry. Most people find 10kg about right. Much more than that and you need another holiday when you get home! And remember, if the weather is wet your rucksack is heavier. Many people who go camping for the first time take too much and then find they have forgotten the essentials. But with practice and good advice you can have a fantastic holiday.
