2 . Arbeia Roman Fort and Museum
Location and History
Arbeia Roman Fort is situated on Hadrian's Wall. It was the most important structure built by the Romans in Britain, and now it has been a World Heritage Site. Built around AD 160, Arbeia Roman Fort was the military supply base for the soldiers who were stationed along Hadrian's Wall. The fort has been gradually uncovered and some original parts have been revealed. There are reconstructions that show how Arbeia Roman Fort would have looked.
The Reconstructions
The reconstructions of the Commanding Officer's house and soldiers' quarters are strikingly different. The accommodation for soldiers is dark and uncomfortable, while the Commanding Officer's house is spacious and luxurious, with courtyards with fountains for him and his family to enjoy.
The Museum
Visit the museum and see many objects that were found at Arbeia. They are historically important and show what daily life was really like at that time. You will see weapons, tools, jewellery, and so on. You can also discover how the Romans buried their dead and see tombstones which survive to this day. There is a "hands-on" area allowing visitors to dig on a certain site and study their findings with the help of museum staff. You can piece together pottery (陶器), or try writing just as the Romans would have done. For children, they can build this Roman fort with building blocks by themselves.

4 . As intros to backpacking go, this might be pushing it. At noon on a brilliant Tuesday in March, my 12-year-old son Kai and I are a mile and a half into a four-day, 27-mile walk through the Grand Canyon—his first backpacking trip—when he asks, “Are we almost to camp?, Um, no. Camp, at Hermit Creek, is seven miles and nearly 2,500 feet below, that will take us several more hours.
We are here largely because of a birthday note Kai wrote to me two years ago in which he declared, “You used to be a wild 10-year-old like me and now you’re a wild 53-year-old. We can do so many things together! I am excited for when I’m old enough for the Grand Canyon.”
There are, I suppose, dads who could resist that, just as there are fathers who would plan an experience-appropriate trip for their sons. I am neither, so here we are. Never mind that; aside from simply being 12, Kai has done almost nothing to physically prepare for this. Or that I haven’t backpacked for 13 years.
We go down a poorly maintained path off the canyon with twisty trees and twining bushes. Gradually the view broadens, the landscape in Vishnu fascinates Kai greatly. “This place is amazing,” he says. Nightfall in the canyon can be magical. Darkness surrounds us, pressed by cool air. Hearing the sound of a waterfall, we lie down to take in the stars. Twice I suggest we turn in. “Not yet,” Kai says. “This is too unbelievable.”
Wednesday, we travel three miles to Monument Creek, and hike a mile and 1,000 feet down to the Colorado River. The next morning a t 7:30 when we march out, I’m optimistic, and Kai sets a quick pace. Friday, we rise before dawn and are the first ones out of camp; for an hour we have the Bright Angel Trail and its soaring (高耸的) scenery to ourselves.
In that birthday card, Kai had also written, “Even when you’re 100, you will always be wild.” Nice. If I’m lucky enough to make it there, it looks like I’ll have company.

5 . How to Enjoy Your Holiday Alone
Spending a holiday alone can actually be more enjoyable than hanging out with other people.
Stay in your pajamas (睡衣) all day. If planning to spend the day at home, you don't need to bother with real pants. Put on your softest sweatpants or your comfortable robe and wander around the house while staying comfortable.
Sleep in. It's your holiday!
You could also try doing simple yoga. Even 15 minutes can help you feel relaxed and centered.
Reach out to family and friends. If you want to see your loved ones but you can't be there in person, a quick phone call or a video chat will probably help.
| A．Do something meaningful |
| B．Give you some emotional support |
| C．Take a short sleep in the middle of the day |
| D．And you might even find that you like it more |
| E．Send them a text to see when they're available |
| F．Turn off your alarm and let your body wake up naturally |
| G．You can look up classes in your area, or try classes in your area |
6 . Whether you’re travelling to the islands or the mountains of Thailand, you’re likely to spend at least one night in its capital city on the way. Bangkok might be noisy and polluted but it’s also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay?
Where to stay
The Khao San Road was a famous traveller spot even before Leonardo di Caprio’s character in the film The Beach stayed there. But it’s noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For something more authentic, Phra Kanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic street markets where everyday Bangkok people eat, work and live. It’s not as convenient for the main tourist sites, but it has a Skytrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20 minutes.
How to get around
Bangkok’s traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi – if you want to spend hours stuck in traffic jams – but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat river taxi or a longtail boat along the Chao Phraya river and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the Skytrain is a fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit, and the famous Chatuchak street market.
Where to eat
The simple answer is: everywhere! Thai street food is among the best in the world, and for around $5 you can eat a filling and delicious meal. Some food stands have little plastic seats where you can sit and eat and they cook the same dish over and over, like fried chicken on rice or Pad Thai noodles. Head for Chinatown – Yaowarat Street – and choose whatever looks most interesting from the many excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants and food stands.

| B．The river boat taxis often get stuck in traffic too. |
| C．Taking the Skytrain is a faster way to see the city than going by taxi. |

| A．A text book. | B．A science report. |
| C．A guidebook. | D．A book review. |

There is a Chinese saying goes like this: Traveling ten thousand li is better than reading ten thousand books. Indeed, travel benefit us a lot.
Firstly, travel broadens our mind and enriches our knowledges. We can experience more about the outside world by traveling. Secondly, we feel more relaxing when traveling, what is good for our body and health. Naturally, we will become more energetically after a much pleasant travel. In addition, we are more likely to make new friends on your journey.
To sum up, travel is really good to us. If possible, I wish I could travel around world in my lifetime.

9 . When the season switches, the first thing on everyone’s mind is the question “where can we go to relax,” right? Advice from TraveliGo is just what you desire.
Rome, Italy
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Right? Rome, a wonderful place where modern civilization started, is enriched with history, style, elegance, and advanced techniques. We do suggest Colosseum to you. It was the place where the Roman Empire was dedicated to slave owners, nobles, and free men to watch the beasts or slaves.
Paris, France
For almost anyone, an association with love and romance is Paris, France. The city speaks about love from your first steps on the streets. The Eiffel Tower, a memorial to French Revolution, is certainly a must-see, and remember to include the Louvre Palace, the first of the four major museums in the world, in your tour.
Machu Picchu
Another adventure is a trip to the Andes Mountains in Peru to visit Machu Picchu. The very reason to explore the Amazon jungle is to reach this destination and see and feel the cultural heritage once considered to be out of this world. Note that it will take you some time before reaching the top, whether hiking or taking a bus or train. We suggest investing the whole day or two even to get the real experience that Machu Picchu can offer. It will all be worth it in the end
The Great Wall of China
On the top of our list of suggested destinations is, of course, The Great Wall of China. There are no adequate words to describe it, simply said, one of a kind. This historical monument, once a symbol of protection to its people, stretches 13,000 miles from east to the west. It was deliberately created with many twists and turns, uneven steps to slow down the potential enemies, but the fact that over 10 million tourists visit it each year is evidence that you definitely should check it out.

10 . Kangaroo Island Penguin Centre at Kingscote offers so much more than just a chance to see the inhabitants of the local penguin colony(领地）where they live.
When you join us for guided tours of both the Little Penguin Colony and our Saltwater Aquariums, you'll begin to understand that the heart of our business is supporting, protecting and caring for the penguins and sharing our fascination with Kangaroo Island's sea creatures so our visitors can understand the importance of caring for the ocean's complex wildlife.
Best Time to Visit the Kingscote Penguin Colony
The best time to visit our colony is between April and November when Kingscote's penguins are concentrating on building their homes and families. During these months, penguins are either nest building, laying eggs or raising chicks.
Don't Let the Moon Spoil Your Penguin Viewing
If you are able to plan your penguin tour so that you don't come on a moonlit night, you'll be much more likely to see penguins on the Kingscote foreshore. Little penguins all over Australia become very quiet on land when the moon is bright. No matter the time of year, moonlit nights mean calm waters and penguins are likely to stay feeding out at sea when they occur.
Tour Times
During Daylight Saving tours start at 20:30 and 21:30 and in the winter tours are at 19:30 and 20:30. At peak Daylight Saving in December and January, tours start at 20:45 and 21:30. Our building opens half an hour before the first tour begins.
Disabled Access
The Kangaroo Island Penguin Centre building is wheelchair accessible and includes DISABLED ACCESS toilet facilities. For those wanting to join the evening tour, the Hospital Beach Penguin Colony features DISABLED ACCESS boardwalks suitable for wheel chairs.
1. What's the main purpose of the guided tours?| A．To protect and care for the penguins. |
