Writing tips for travel journals

There are many benefits of keeping a journal when you’re traveling. It helps you remember your visit and learn more culture and customs. Also, it helps you reflect on what you have learned.     1     Here are some writing tips for your travel journals.

Write about what you imagine it will be like

Sometimes when you travel, your destination is wildly different than what you expected. Maybe you expected the local food to be bad but it turned out to be delicious.     2     . Maybe you thought you would be more comfortable with the language. Whatever it is, write it down before you arrive. It will be interesting to compare these predictions to your actual experiences.

Write during your trip

    3     . Therefore, try and write as much as you can while traveling. Your journals don’t have to be long, but you should let them highlight what you feel. Before going to bed, try and recall what you did that day, what you thought and how you felt. This will serve as a great way to help you reflect and grow from what you experienced.

    4    

Even though your journal is meant for writing, pictures are still worth a thousand words. Combining pictures with your first-hand accounts of what they represent, or what happened when they were taken will make for an even more comprehensive narrative of your travels.

Write about your trip after you leave

It is necessary to write about your trip before you arrive.     5     . It is important to reflect on your travels to develop new understandings and apply them to future adventures. This is also a great way to learn about yourself. Step back from all the things you did and try to see the big picture. It may surprise you.

A.Activities on the list.
B.Add pictures to your journal.
C.Such refection can be later applied to other parts of your life.
D.Maybe you imagined the town to be smaller than it actually is.
E.Equally importantly, you should also write about it after you leave.
F.It is always easier to remember things when they are fresh in your brain.
G.Keeping a travel journal offers opportunities to fix your feelings on the page.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。蜜蜂以我们可能没有意识到的方式为我们提供食物等。文章介绍了我们如何帮助蜜蜂存活的方式。

【推荐1】Bees (蜜蜂) touch our lives in ways we may not realize. They are responsible for as much as one third of the food that we eat, and even play a role in growing the cotton (棉花) used in much of our clothing.     1     Here’s how you can help:

1. Plant more flowers

Bees depend on garden flowers to ensure they have different kinds of diet. By planting flowers in your garden you can create a pleasant place for bees.     2     Another idea is to add hanging baskets of flowers next to your front door.

2. Find a space for a beehive (蜂窝) in your garden

Many would-be beekeepers find it difficult to find a safe space for their bees. If you have some space, contact your local beekeeping organization.     3     You will be surprised what a difference a beehive will make to your garden.

3. Give bees water

    4     They use water to produce food for their bee families and control the temperature in their hives. Bees look for a clean source of water. Leave out containers filled with clean water in your outdoor spaces and refresh them often.

4. Be bee friendly

Bees are good neighbors, and only sting (蜇) when they feel threatened. Beekeepers wear protective clothing when they are dealing with bees. If a bee flies in front of you when unprotected, do not flap (拍打) your hands.     5     The bee will soon lose interest.

A.Stay calm and move slowly away.
B.Fight the diseases that affect bees.
C.They could find a beekeeper in need of a site.
D.One way to help bees is to buy local produce.
E.Like every living creature, bees need water to survive.
F.But more than one quarter of the species is facing extinction.
G.You don’t even need a garden space to attract bees; your window box will do.

【推荐2】Gratitude in difficult times

You may be without a job, have an illness or face a difficult situation of some kind this Thanksgiving. We often face difficult times that we must go through.     1     But by being more grateful for what we do have, we can increase our happiness by 25%. Here are some ways to practice gratitude, especially helpful during difficult times.

Look for a Hidden Opportunity.

In bad times, look for an opportunity that may exist, yet may not be so obvious.     2     However, perhaps it’s time to change life’s direction and look for work that is more suited to your talents and passions. Life changes, even the bad ones, can lead to good things and perhaps be the blessing of a lifetime.

Create a Gratitude List.

Are there 10, 20, 30 or 50 things you can be grateful for? Try 100! This may be easy for some people, but for others a little more difficult. Start to think about things that you might be taking for granted like your warm bed, a hot cup of coffee, the unconditional love of a child or your health. Blessings exist everywhere.     3    

Each Day Is a Gift.

Reflect on all that you are grateful for before the day begins.     4     You can simply say thank you for the day as soon as you wake up. This puts us right in the morning and starts our day on a good note instead of starting the day out with negative thoughts.

    5    

Showing gratitude to our loved ones and to strangers every day can be uplifting for both the giver and receiver. We are often so consumed with our daily routines that we may take people for granted. But if we say thanks, we can make someone’s day.

A.Make Gratitude a Habit.
B.Express Your Gratitude.
C.For example, a job loss can present all kinds of fears.
D.You can refer to your gratitude list when feeling down.
E.This starts the day with feelings of hope, peace and happiness.
F.You can set aside some time each day to think about feelings of gratitude.
G.When we are in difficult times, it’s harder to see the good among our troubles.

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了习惯是逐渐养成的,早年养成的好习惯有助于事业的成功。

【推荐3】    1    When a person does a certain thing again, he is impelled by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; thus a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of.    2    Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits, and sometimes become ruined by them.

    3    Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and thoroughness.

Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on.    4    Unfortunately older persons often form habits which ought to have been avoided.    5    

A.There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help.
B.Whether good or not habit are, they are easy to get rid of.
C.We ought to keep from all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will prove good for ourselves and others.
D.Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed.
E.It is very important for us to know why we should get used to good habbits.
F.These are all easily formed habits.
G.It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits.
