Question 3.2 - True/False · Inglés PAU Galicia Extraordinaria 2022

TEXT B

Single people who are over thirty but certainly not in their old age have a lot to rejoice about. There are specialised holidays for them- some of them offered by computer dating services- and at least one company specifically states that its holidays are for the «Over 30's». For those who don't like to be herded and organised there are certain holidays emphasized for singles, with no restriction on age and a welcoming cocktail as the only arranged event. Best of all, the number of available hotel rooms without the dreaded «single supplement» has increased.

Holidays don't have to have a singles tag to be the right ones. A number of packages where the key is informality, where everyone eats together family-style, where sports facilities don't cost extra, are perfect for those on their own. Sometimes this type of holiday is termed «houseparty» when it is designed for much smaller groups of strangers accommodated in a large house or lodge. In most cases there is a chalet host who not only does the cooking but socialises with the group as well. Many singles find this an excellent way of meeting new friends.

You may want to consider activity holidays, which aren't necessarily for sporting-types only. Keep-fit and dance programmes are held at many hotels abroad; organised painting holidays overseas and in the UK are available; and special interest weekends in Britain range from learning about computers to hot-air ballooning. Serious wine lovers, botanists, geologists and so on are also catered for by specialised itineraries which might take them across the Channel to France or as far afield as South Africa.
