The longest train journey in the world is from the Pacific over to the Atlantic, going across Asia and Europe. You can do this famous journey with only a few changes of train. Some people start in Hong Kong and take the train to Beijing. This is a very good way to see a lot of Chinese passing by the window while you talk or eat. You can stay at a hotel in Beijing, and then take the train for a five-day journey to Moscow. It is a long time, but you can walk up and down the train and get out at some of the stations. You can take some good books and maybe some games too.
There are the horses of Mongolia. Don’t they look lovely? Many people stay in a hotel in Ulan Bator to do some sightseeing. Later the train goes past Lake Baikal, one of the world’s largest lakes with 20% of the world’s fresh water. As we go west the food changes. This is one of the best as well as the longest train journeys. Here is Moscow—with lots to do and more trains going on to Paris, or even, under the sea, to London.

【推荐2】Going camping is the best fun in the world if we know how to do it. Every healthy boy and girl, if possible, should enjoy living outdoors for a week or two every year.
A group of four members makes a good number for a camping trip. They will probably agree better than two or three. They can do much of the camp work in pairs. No one needs to be left alone to look after the camp while the others go fishing or hunting or to some nearby towns for food and drinks.
It is always better to go camping with someone who has “camped out” before. If he cannot be found, then make your plans, decide what you will do and how you will do it, take a few cooking lessons from your mother or someone else.
First, choose a leader, not because he is more important than the rest but because if someone goes ahead and gives directions, the life in camp will run much more easily and everyone will have a better time.
If it is your first experience in camping, you had better go somewhere near home. The best place is one that can be reached by car. If you have to carry your supplies(必需品) on your back or in a canoe(独木舟), the amount(数量) you can take will be much less.
After you have had some experience near home, you can safely try the other way. Where you go is of little importance. Near every large city there are some lakes or rivers where you can find a good camping site. Campers always have more fun if they are near some water, but if such a place is not easily found where you live, go into the forest. Try to get away from towns or villages. The wilder the place is, the better.

【推荐2】Carpooling (拼车) for School
In the UK, students often carpool. When your school doesn't have a school bus and your home is not near, you can carpool. Usually three or four students go to school in the same car. Their parents take turns (轮流) in taking the students in their cars.
The students have to be on time, because nobody wants to be late for class. If you are in the car and wait (等) for a friend for a long time, you will be unhappy. Your friends will feel the same way when you let them wait. Students learn a great lesson—to be on time.

Can you cook? If so, what dishes are you good at cooking? For students, being able to cook will become a skill in the near future. They will also need to learn how to plant vegetables, feed chickens or ducks and repair the TV or lights.
From September, 2022, students will have labor classes（劳动课程）at school. The first kind is about doing chores, including cleaning, cooking and repairing. It will be normal for students to cook in the classroom. The next kind is about making something by hand and using new technologies（科技）, such as 3D printing and laser cutting（激光切割）. The third one is service work. Students can volunteer to do something in the neighborhood.
Most parents welcome such classes. They think it is necessary for kids to learn some life skills. Liu Fang, a mother of a 6-year-old boy in Zunyi, agrees to have the classes. For the past years, she has taught her son to do chores and make dishes for the family. Liu said, “He should share chores with other family members.” These labor classes can make students become independent early. And they can also help to develop students’ labor skills.

Jingzhe is a solar term（节气） of spring in China. Days will get warm, more rain will fall, and nature will change quietly.
Jingzhe brings energy to insects. Butterflies fly from their pupas（蛹）from the winter cold. Snakes wake up from their caves to come out and look for food. This is the perfect time for us to watch insects. Try to move stones and check flowers, leaves and the soil. You may use a magnifier（放大镜）to watch what insects do.
Not just insects, plants also show their changes. Trees and flowers begin to come out.
You can smell spring in the air.
As the weather gets warmer and the air becomes drier, people feel their mouths becoming dry, which can cause colds or coughs. Sweet and juicy pears are popular fruit for Jingzhe as they are good for our lungs（肺部）.
In some southern parts of China, some kinds of flowers are in blossom（盛开）because of the warm weather. Is there anything better than having a picnic and enjoying the beautiful flowers on a warm spring day?
Around Jingzhe, fish also wake up. They swim from the deep water to shallow areas to find food. It is a good time for fishing, which is a healthy activity especially for people living in the cities. You can find a place to fish while enjoying a perfect weekend.
