<![CDATA[Read the following selection carefully. Do NOT translate, but answer the questions in ENGLISH. **YOU WILL BE PENALIZED FOR DISREGARDING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.** ### A Visit to Costa Rica Hace dos meses viajé a Costa Rica para pasar una quincena con Lilly, mi prima. Escogí la temporada seca para poder visitar todos los parques nacionales. Comenzamos en San José, la capital, pero pasamos sólo una noche allí ya que el alojamiento es muy caro. Al día siguiente salimos para Arenal, un volcán activo. Allí con nuestro guía turístico, Carlos, fuimos de camping por dos días en un parque cercano. Subimos el volcán y desde la cima vimos todos los barcos pescando en el lago cercano. Después, Carlos nos llevó en carro a Monteverde, otro parque nacional. Descubrimos monos con cara blanca, serpientes peligrosas e insectos raros, frutas exóticas y vimos muchas orquídeas, la flor nacional costarricense. Mis vacaciones terminaron con una visita a Puerto Viejo en un coche alquilado por mis Tíos Raúl y Carmen. Pasamos cinco días pescando, nadando en el mar y tomando el sol caribeño. Comí gallo pinto, el plato nacional que consiste en arroz con frijoles negros, natillas, huevos revueltos y plátanos fritos. ¡Nunca olvidaré esta visita! Ya estoy planeado mis próximas vacaciones allí con mi mejor amigo. Answer, in ENGLISH, the following questions based on the selection you have just read. Use a complete sentence for EACH response.[20 marks]
