3 . Surfing: Famous Beaches, Famous Waves

North Shore, Oahu, Hawaii: Famous for being the birthplace of surfing

Wide, and beaches stretch nearly 20 miles along the Pacific Ocean. Between October and February, this surfing destination is suitable only for experienced surfers, as its big waves can reach 30 feet. In summer, the ocean can be almost completely flat, making it perfect for swimming.

Huntington Beach, California: Famous for the US Open of Surfing competition

This busy 8.5-mile-long beach attracts 8 million visitors a year for bodysurfing, boogie boarding (趴板冲浪) and board surfing at every level, beginner to expert. At night, the beach's fire pits draw families as much as the waves do during the day. The best time for surfers is winter, when the swells can hit 15 feet.

Jeffreys Bay, South Africa: Famous for being the setting of the classic movie The Endless Summer

This area of the ocean may contain the most consistent waves on the planet, with some up to 10 feet. The best waves are between late May and late August. The beach sometimes closes because of sharks, but at other times, surfaces are lucky enough to surf alongside dolphins.

Tamarindo, Costa Rica: Famous for being featured in the movie The Endless Summer II

This beach has waves up to 12 feet high, which are good for long boarders or short boarders, beginners or expense, with the best waves from April to July. Bodysurfing is not recommended because of offshore rocks. The relaxed atmosphere and nearly perfectly year-round weather make it feel like the California beaches of the 1950s.

Zoos are more than just a place of entertainment and education for people, but also a place    3    animals are kept in safe enclosures. Zoos allow us to enjoy    4    (view) animals, or we would have to make a trip to Africa to view them.

My first trip to the zoo    5    (be) years ago during an elementary school trip. That was the first time I     6    (find) myself close to wild animals like tigers, lions, giraffes and zebras, The last time I visited the zoo was about a year back when I took my kids there. Children especially are interested in such animals on display and in terms of     7    (education) value, I would say that the trip was worth every minute    8    (spend). However, there are some of us who feel that animals shouldn't be kept in enclosures is     9    form of cruelty. But looking at it from another perspective, the same animals may not survive this far had they been left on their own in the wilderness because of the     10    (present) of their enemies.
