“Only this backpack,” Tom answered. ”You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”

　　“That’s right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”

　　“Thanks.”

　　Is Tom a criminal (罪犯)? Not at all. He is an air-courier(空中信使). And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.

　　Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone. But if you have very little money, can be flexible (灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!

　　61. Why was Tom wearing so many clothes for his travel?

　　A. Because they were the uniforms for air couriers.

　　B. Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.

　　C. Because that made him easier to be recognized.

　　D. Because he did not have any luggage with him
