【推荐2】Going on holiday should be an exciting moment.    1     Here are some suggestions as to how you can stop that from being the case and make the whole experience a little more enjoyable.

Choose Wisely The first way to make sure you have a comfortable flight is of course to choose your ticket carefully.    2     Many flights let you book your seat ahead of time so you’d better check in early or look online early and make sure you get it with the most space for your legs.

Relax       3     People just can’t associate being on a plane with being comfortable and they tend to think that the experience is going to be unpleasant.Remember that tossing and turning won’t make you any more comfortable and instead just focus on the fact that you are sitting down without a care in the world during at least the period of the flight.    4    

Medication If you do get travel sick then this is of course not conductive (有益的) to your comfort.    5     The other kind of medication that might help you relax and sleep quickly could be anti­anxiety if you are nervous about flight or sleeping tablets.

A．Take some travel medication before the flight if this is the case.

B．Think long and hard about the airline you are going to fly with and the seat you are going to book.

C．It is actually unnecessary to worry about how to make a long flight comfortable.

D．In fact， the biggest problem with people on planes is the psychological factor.

E．Avoid booking a seat beside a window in case you are dizzy.

F．But many of us feel an amount of anxiety because the trip might be long while you still have to get there.

G．It is a rare opportunity now to just relax and read a book.

【推荐3】Summer is a fun time to get away from busy work and spend quality time with your family. Research has found that spending quality time with the family benefits both parents and children.    1    Here are some of these activities.

Have a picnic. Going for a picnic with the whole family is always enjoyable. You can get away from the house and enjoy foods together in nature.     3    It is a great time to chat with the family and appreciate the fantastic scenery.

Go camping. Having a camping trip with the whole family in state parks is also a good idea. There are many fun things you can do when you go camping. But you need to check on all your camping equipment. And make sure your tents have been put up well enough to resist any weather.    4
