8 . Plan a Day of Leaf Peeping (观赏秋叶)
Autumn can be a great season to experience the outdoors with your friends and family. One popular activity is leaf peeping-spending time outdoors admiring the changing colors of the leaves.
Understand the science
Some trees have green leaves most of the year due to the chlorophyll (叶绿素) they use to absorb energy from the sun. As the day gets colder and shorter in the fall, the leaves get less sunlight, which causes the green to fade and reveal other colors.
Pick a destination
You can experience fall leaves in almost every state in the USA. Depending on where you live, you might want to plan to head out into the countryside or mountains to see the best leaves.
Once you have your destination set, it’s time to go further planning. You can visit the Internet to see when the leaves are expected to change colors at your planned destination. You’ll notice that leaves first start to change in more northern areas, then later in more southern areas.
Document your observations
When you head out to look at the fall landscape, keep a visual record of what you see. You can use a camera to take photos of some of your favorite sights. You can get creative, such as by lying on the ground and capturing the colorful leaves above you, or taking a close-up of an especially beautiful leaf.
A.Time your trip |
B.Set the first destination |
C.Let's start learning about leaves |
D.Here is some practical advice for getting started |
E.You may preserve the beauty of the fall forever through it |
F.You may first talk to your parents about planning a day out |
G.After the leaves change colors, they eventually fall to the ground |
9 . For families on vacation, a playground provides a welcome break. It can also provide a glimpse into the local culture, from the setup of the park to the ways families interact. Here are the designs that live up to that challenge.
Fruit and Scent Playground, Stockholm
Is there a picky eater on a steady diet of chicken fingers and cheese? Perhaps a trip to Sweden’s Fruit and Scent Playground will change his or her culinary (烹饪的) tune. This playground features a banana slide, an orange seesaw, pear huts, a watermelon jungle gym and a pair of cherry swings, all designed by public artist Johan Ferner Strom. Now, who can say you can’t play with your food?
Nishi Rokugo Park, Tokyo
Located between central Tokyo and the city of Kawasaki, Nishi Rokugo combines recycled rubber tires (橡胶轮胎) with traditional playground equipment. In total, more than 3,000 tires of different sizes are used to create tunnels, bridges, tall sculptures for climbing and, of course, tire swings. There’s little shade, so you can visit here in the early morning or late afternoon for the most comfortable weather, and be sure to wear your play clothes.
Bicentennial Children’s Park, Santiago, Chile
Bicentennial Children’s playground in Metropolitan Park was built to celebrate 200years of Chilean independence and improve the lives of Santiago citizens. Dozens of slides are built into the slope, creating a design completely complementary (互为补充的) of the surrounding landscape.
