1 . Boracay, Philippines
Boracay is a tiny island and its main attraction is “White Beach”, a perfect postcard white sand beach surrounded by palm trees, dive shops, bars and restaurants. Our favourite seat to enjoy the sunset is “Diniwid Beach” located to the north of White Beach. After the perfect sunset, choose a bar to enjoy live music and party all night long.
Santorini, Greece
Santorini offers a unique landscape of beaches in exotic (异国的) colors of black, red and white, a product of volcanic sand. Imagine swimming in the warm mythic Aegean sea, with volcano and sunsets as a background. The island architecture is very distinctive, churches are built into caves and the whitewashed
houses, blue-domed churches and paved paths are astonishingly beautiful.
Lofoten Island, Norway
The Lofoten Islands are a wonderful sight indeed. With deep bays and splendid mountains, this is a wilderness unequalled in its beauty, where giant sea eagles soar. Milder in climate than their position suggests, visitors are attracted to the islands to experience the Northern Lights and Midnight Sun.
Saint John Island, Caribbean
Life moves at a slower pace here, where wildlife abounds (大量存在). The National Park dominates here, covering more than half of the island. It is just nine miles from one end to the other and with countless bird species to spot and dolphins in the warm Caribbean waters, it's no surprise that this is a destination that draws nature lovers. This is a place to rest and relax.

9 . A batch of new houses across California is selling unusually fast. In the past two months, 82 have been snapped up, and the waiting list is 1,000 long. That demand should, though, soon be satisfied—for, while it can take weeks to put up a conventional bricks-and-mortar dwelling (砖混住宅), the constructors behind these houses are able to build one in less than 24 hours. They can do it so rapidly because their products are collected from prefabricated (预制的) components printed in a factory.
Three-dimensional printing has been around since the early 1980s, but is now developing fast. It is already employed to make things ranging from orthopaedic (整形外科的) implants to components for aircraft. The details vary according to the products and processes involved, but the underlying principle is the same. A layer of material is laid down and somehow fixed in place. Then another is put on top of it. Then another. By varying the shape and the composition, objects can be crafted that would be difficult or impossible to produce with conventional techniques.
Not only does 3D printing allow greater versatility (用途广泛) and faster construction, it also promises a more environmentally friendly approach. That may make it a useful answer to two challenges now facing the world: a shortage of housing and climate change. More than 20% of Earth’s population lack adequate accommodation. And the construction industry is responsible for 11% of the world’s man-made carbon-dioxide emissions. An important benefit is that there is less need to move lots of heavy stuff. Palari Homes, for instance, estimates that prefabricating its products reduces the number of lorry journeys sufficiently to cut two tonnes off the amount of carbon dioxide released per home. If successful, building by 3D printing is likely to spread beyond housing. Opportunities also exist in warehousing, offices and other commercial buildings.
