Last month, our family took trip to Hong Kong. When we reach Hong Kong International Airport at night, we took a taxi to the hotel we had been booked online. The next morning we went on a city tour. Then they had lunch in an Indian restaurant. Afterwards we went to Disneyland, in what I saw Snow White, Mickey, Donald Duck and many other characters. And I was lucky enough to taking photographs with all of them. We played with water or watched a Mickey Mouse 3D show as well. In the evening we watched a wonderfully fireworks show near one of the castle there.
On a word, I will never forget this trip in my life.

3 . Did you watch the popular TV series Meet Yourself during your winter vacation? In the TV series, the heroine Xu Hongdou travels to a village in Yunnan province and volunteers at a local cafe. She gets free meals in return. As the show finds a growing audience, volunteer travel - an old-yet-modern form of travel similar to Xu*s type of work - has attracted more attention.
Volunteer travel refers to taking a trip where all or part of the purpose of the trip is to participate in an arranged service opportunity to help others, according to Wise Tour, an online provider of tourist information.
These volunteer trips are usually arranged by church organizations, human interest groups or nonprofit organizations, and they take form of equal exchanges. During the trip, volunteer travelers often provide services like teaching, cooking, animal caring, and cultural activities. In exchange for their help, the volunteers may get free or discounted accommodation, meals and laundry (洗衣服务 ),activities, or classes.
It seems as if these long journeys could only be made possible in recent years by modern transportation. Nevertheless, volunteer travel dates back to the 1960s, when Alec Dickson and his wife Mora from the UK founded Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO), an international volunteer organization.
Traditionally, the volunteer activities take place in a foreign country. However, just as what Meet Yourself describes, more volunteer trips have taken place within the same countries or regions the volunteers originate from in recent years. Sanlian Lifeweek magazine commented that volunteer projects in rural areas are now attracting more urban visitors as a break from the fast and stressful pace of urban living. Yang Yan, a founder of a volunteer platform, told the magazine that it has indeed been a growing trend for urban residents to volunteer in rural areas.
People try volunteer travel for several reasons. By working voluntarily while traveling, travelers may make a real, positive impact on the world. The services volunteers provide can be through charities with lower costs for the communities they serve. Another benefit of volunteer travel is that it helps urban dwellers(居民)to get a taste of rural life. For those who are sick of urban pressure but can’t make up their minds whether to move permanently to the countryside, volunteer travel can be a solution. In this way, as Yang comments, travelers can catch some relief from their busy lives, while rural communities also benefit by receiving more customers for local tourism industries and temporary high-quality labor.

4 . This Spanish city is almost car-free. Pontevedra, a city located in the north-west of Spain, gives pedestrians priority (优先) on city streets. With a population of 80,000, the local government has spent decades redesigning the city so that it is walkable.
“Everything here is pretty close,” Elena Herroro, who moved to the city from Madrid. “I have the health center almost behind my house. The hospital is also close by. I have several supermarkets right under my apartment.
The city’s pedestrian-friendly (对行人友好的) layout has attracted local businesses and shops. And restaurants are flourishing. That’s because the streets are perfect for strolling and shopping.
“Every city has its main commercial street, which defines its character,” said city official César Mosquera. “
The first area to be closed off to cars was the old town in Pontevedra, which was transformed in 1999. That’s because in the 1990s, the city was choked by traffic.
“This city was basically a giant warehouse for cars, full of private vehicles that filled our public space, generated noise and emissions, and stopped our citizens-especially children and the elderly-from having true autonomy in the place where they lived,” said Pontevedra’s mayor Miguel Anxo Fernández Lores.
A.So nothing essential is far away |
B.If you make it pedestrian-friendly |
C.If you want to experience the city’s beauty |
D.Over 80,000 people drove through the city center every day |
