Enjoy free “Happy Hour”. The hotel Embassy Suites by Hilton offers a “Manager’s Reception (招待会) ” every day from 5:30 p. m. to 7:30 p.m. During this time, you can get free drinks and snacks. Although it’s hard to find another hotel that does this, there are some hotels which offer “Buy one, get one free”.

Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land. Why? You weigh about 90% less in the pool. It is better for your knees than running or walking.

In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the worrying things. The cool, quiet environment makes them feel good.

②Each country or culture raises some animals for food. In the United States, people mainly eat meat from cows and chickens. In other countries, people might raise sheep or buffalo for meat. These differences come in part from weather and other environmental conditions. People around the world eat all kinds of fish and shellfish from oceans and rivers. In some countries, people don’t always choose some animal groups, such as dogs, for food while in other countries such animals may become people’s favorite food.
③In West Africa, animals provide humans with more than food. They have been helping people do daily work for thousands of years. Horses, oxen, and other work animals pull heavy things. Elephants, camels, and other animals carry people and things from place to place. Carrier pigeons (信鸽) have been used to send messages.
④People also receive health benefits (利益) from animals. For example, dogs and cats can help calm people down. This is helpful for people in fighting illnesses.
