【推荐3】Year after year, UNESCO(联合国教科文组织)gets some new wonders in its list. These places will be given special protection according to their culture or location. So, if you’re not sure where to go for your next trip, here are three of our favourite new wonders just for you.
The Lake District, England
Rolling hills, large groups of sheep, and fresh air, but the Lake District is more than the countryside.
Every year, it attracts about 18 million tourists from around the world who come to see the beauty of its fantastic mountaintops and clear lakes. Usually a day trip isn’t enough, better to choose a nine-day hike where they will get the chance to explore every corner of this English wonder.
City of Yazd, Iran
With centuries of history, red mud-brick(泥砖)houses and special historical and traditional buildings are common sights in this desert city. While Yazd is quickly becoming among the must-see cities in Iran, it’s worth visiting, although the trip might be quite difficult and tiring. However, this problem can easily be solved with the help of many guided tours there.
Los Alerces National Park, Argentina
Located in Chubut Province, Argentina, the park is 2, 630 square kilometres of paradise. The park is named after a kind of tree, which is among the longest living trees in the world, and some of them even aged 3,000 years old. Enjoy the beauty of the colours of the water, lie yourself in the silence away from the noise of city life and let yourself be one with nature.

His hiccups began one Sunday lunch time and continued day and night for two weeks. After the first week, Harry's parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.
Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.
“When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn't do any good. That evening I had hiccups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. My father even tried to give me a shock but that didn't work either.”
After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital. The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they couldn't find anything wrong.
“They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the medicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.”
Harry was very lucky. The world record holder is the American farmer Charles Osborne, who hiccupped for sixty-eight years. He stopped in 1990 at last, but nobody knows why.

【推荐2】I was waiting for my train in the hall when a young man came into my sight(视野). He was talking with an old man not far away. It seemed that he was asking for something. I could see that the old man refused him politely. The young man looked disappointed. But he said something in a low voice and then he moved away.
I closed my eyes to have a rest. I was told at home that never say anything with a stranger(陌生人) if he or she wants to ask for something. “They are cheaters(骗子)!” they told me.
“Excuse me!” A soft voice appeared. I opened my eyes and saw the young man standing in front of me. He seemed a little nervous, and his face was red.
“Could I use your mobile phone, please?” the young man said. “My mobile phone and wallet are lost, so may I borrow yours to give my mom a call?” he asked.
I looked at him. Something inside my body told me to help him.
“Sure,” I said. I took out my mobile phone and gave it to him.
“Thank you so much!” He was surprised and excited.
Then he dialed the number and told his mom that he missed the train. He also told her not to meet him at the station because it was snowy and cold in his hometown.
“It’s very kind of you! Thanks a lot!” he said gratefully(感激地) to me when he finished the phone call.
“There you are!” Suddenly a woman with a little girl rushed to us. “Thank you so much for helping me send my sick child to the hospital! But you left your mobile phone and wallet in the hospital.” “It’s nothing.” the young man answered, looking a little shy.
