【推荐1】The advantages of solo (独自) travel
● One benefit of solo travel is that it forces you to become independent, make decisions, and step out of your comfort zone on a regular basis — something you wouldn’t necessarily do if you weren’t traveling alone.
When you travel solo, you have nobody to rely on but yourself, and that pushes you to learn how to function in the world.
●
● One of the biggest benefits of solo travel is how easy it is to meet people on the road. All you need to do is wander into a hotel room and within minutes, someone will strike up a conversation with you.
● Solo travel can be helpful for your mental state, too. Solo travel builds confidence as you travel through an unfamiliar city, chat with strangers and figure out how to get from one place to another.
● Another item in the “pro” column for solo travel is that it can be a time for reflection and can help bring peace to your mind.
| A．It’s sink-or-swim time! |
| B．You’ll get to know yourself better than you ever have before. |
| C．Solo travel is something everyone should try at some point in their lives. |
| D．Your social skills will be improved by meeting people and talking more. |
| E．Another benefit to solo travel is not having to compromise on your travels. |
| F．When traveling solo, you’re much more approachable than when you’re in a group. |
| G．Not having someone to share all those amazing experiences with can lead to depression. |
【推荐2】Cities are taking steps to support wildlife populations and educate citizens about the importance of the environment. Here are four of the most wildlife-friendly cities in the United States.
Austin, Texas
Austin, the capital of Texas, earns the rank as the top city for wildlife in large part due to its work to help improve declining monarch butterfly populations. Austin sits within the main migration pattern of the monarch, which means that monarch butterflies pass through it twice annually. Austin also leads all US cities with 2,616 certified (经认证的)wildlife habitats.
Atlanta, Georgia
Atlanta secures the second-place ranking thanks to its Climate Action Plan, which aims to expand on the 3,000 acres of parks that the city already manages. Already classified by the US Forest Service as one of the most forested urban centers in the country, Atlanta also calls fbr planting more trees and creating more green spaces based on its climate plan. Six neighborhoods in Atlanta have been designated (指定)as Community Wildlife Habitats. Put together, these areas of vegetation can help reduce the urban heat island effect in the city.
Seattle, Washington
Seattle is home to 489 parks that span 6,441 acres, including 2,500 acres of forested public land. The city’s largest park, Discovery Park, covers 534 acres and serves as an important protected area fbr birds and marine animals. Due to the amount of forested land in Seattle, the researchers use the city to study how urban environments can be designed to support wildlife. The Seattle Urban Project enlists the community to report wildlife sightings, which helps to demonstrate how and where flesh-eating mammals can coexist with humans.
Chula Vista, California
Chula Vista, a city in southern California, ranks high on the list due to its efforts to combat water use issues. The city’s NatureScape Program encourages citizens to replace lawns with gardens of native plants that attract pollinators (传粉昆虫)and conserve water. The city has also formed the CLEAN group, a partnership between the government, businesses and community groups designed to address environmental issues.

【推荐3】When the bus screamed to a stop in Nazareth, Israel, 5 Australian backpackers boarded and struck up a conversation with me. They asked typical travelers’ questions -- where was I going and why was I traveling alone? My plan was to travel with a friend of a friend, I explained, but when I called her that morning, she didn’t pick up and I had no other way to reach her. My stomach was in knots, but I decided to head out anyway, thinking I might run into her if I traveled to Tiberius, where we had planned to go together.
“Why don’t you travel with us?” one of the backpackers offered. They were experienced adventurers who would work for a few months, save, then travel for as long as they could. Their current plan was to explore the Middle East and Europe in three months while working in London.
It seemed risky to travel with strangers. but my instinct said yes. For the next two weeks, I explored Israel with the backpackers and learned to trust my instincts in all types of new and interesting situations. When they hook a ride, I took the bus, but when they wanted to steal into the King David Hotel’s swimming pool, I led the way. The world opened up to me because I chose to travel alone. I joined complete strangers, who become close friends. Years later, one couple from the backpacking group even flew from Sydney to Phoenix to be in my wedding. The trip was such a special experience that it gave me confidence in all areas of my life. Since then, I’ve backpacked alone across South Africa, sky-dived from 12,000 feet in New Zealand and even moved across the U.S. with no job lined up.
On my third day wandering in Israel with my new friends. I bumped into the woman I was supposed to meet. Though I was happy she was all right, I was grateful she hadn’t picked up the phone.

【推荐1】Britain's brilliant bridges have aided trade and brought communities together and are always the most exciting part of the journey. These must-see bridges are now tourist attractions in their own right.
Clifton Suspension Bridge, Bristol
Described by its legendary engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel as “my first love, my darling”, in was originally designed for horse-drawn traffic. Now, more than four million vehicles a year cross the 1,352ft-Jong toll (收费) bridge over the Avon Gorge. The £ l toll for every journey pays for its repair. The history of the bridge, dating back to 1864, is kept alive through a programme of tours, events and exhibitions.
Infinity Bridge, Stockton-On-Tees
A pedestrian and cycle footbridge across the River Tees, its working title was the North Shore Footbridge, before it was given its grander name when opened in 2009. It is particularly spectacular (壮观) at night. The arches of the bridge are also lit white and, on calm nights, their reflection in the water appears as an infinity symbol, thereby inspiring the name which was chosen by the public.

An engineering wonder built from thousands of tons of Cornish granite, Portland stone and steel, it took construction workers eight years to complete. More than 120 years old, it's a popular tourist attraction, as well as a functional bridge. Visitors can take in the views over the capital and experience seeing London life through the Glass Floor.

【推荐2】Donating to charity is a great way to get rid of things that you no longer want or need when you're moving. And if you donate through one of the charities that pick up your stuff, you don't even have to leave your home to make a difference. To help make your life even easier, we'd like to recommend Salvation Army that offers donation pick-ups right from your home. Get to organizing, schedule a pick-up date, and find out just how easy it is to give new life to your unwanted items.
When you think about where to donate unwanted belongings, your mind might go to Salvation Army first. And it makes sense—the Salvation Army has been in operation for over 150 years, and its locations can currently be found in more than 7,000 American towns and cities. Items are either brought directly to those who need them or sold at a steep discount to those in need at a Salvation Army store, and the organization offers free furniture pick-up, among other things.
What they accept: Furniture, clothing, various household items and appliances, electronics, books and used cars.
Who they help: The Salvation Army assists those in need across a wide variety of areas, including victims of domestic violence, at-risk youth, the elderly, and natural disaster victims.
How to schedule a Salvation Army pick-up: To schedule a Salvation Army pick-up, head to satruck.org/donate/choose and enter your address and phone number. From there, you'll list the items that you plan to donate and then schedule a pick-up date. Note that you don't have to be home for the pick-up-you can simply leave the items outside your home, provided you mark them "SA."

【推荐3】The Best Destinations to Visit in 2023
Poland
We could list new openings in Poland, such as Hotel Verte in Warsaw, which will throw open its golden doors in August. But this is not the only reason you should visit Poland in 2023. Sharing a 300-plus-mile border with its neighboring countries, where there are forests, lakes and mountains, means now it’s your chance to take a vacation there.
Western Australia
On April 20, 2023, a total solar eclipse (日食) will be visible over the northwestern edge of Australia. For an event that will likely last about one minute, the town of Exmouth has been planning for over a year. There will be outdoor viewing platforms where observers can safely watch the solar miracle.
Liverpool, England
Best known around the world as the birthplace of The Beatles, Liverpool is adding another chapter to its musical legacy. In May, it will be the host city of Eurovision Song Contest 2023, which is expected to bring thousands of flag-waving fans from across the continent. In June, the city will celebrate the Liverpool Biennial contemporary visual arts festival, as more than 30 international artists and collectives takeover spaces in the city until September.
Charleston, South Carolina
Charleston shows its past like no other US city, but it often glosses over (掩饰) the history of its Black residents. It has been taking steps to fix that. Enter the International African American Museum, which promises to make an opening announcement soon for 2023 after pushing back its January date. The museum is on the shoreline of the Cooper River in the spot where many Africans first set foot in North America.
