By the end of the year, the waiting time     4    （get) in was three hours. For a while, Hongyadong became the     5    （big) attraction in China after the Forbidden City, says     6    well-known travel website.

During my recent travels in China, I went from the top to the bottom of the country. I was astonished at     1    different the weather was in different cities.

The weather was    2     (extreme) cold in Harbin, but felt much warmer in Shanghai, Guilin, Qingdao and Yangshuo. Each city has a different feel and allows you    3     (experience) different things.

In Qingdao, we ate seafood,     4     (drink) beer and swam in the sea. In Harbin, we wore our warmest jackets and saw the    5     (amaze) ice and snow sculptures. Shanghai reminded me    6    a city in Europe or America. There were lots of Western cafes there. Guilin was a good place to be touring around during the Spring Festival. Fireworks filled the sky and the streets were filled with happy people.

But Yangshuo    7     (be) my favorite city of all. I could not stop taking    8     (photo) of the beautiful mountains and the Li River. I rode a bicycle along the Yulong River in the warm sun and I ate strawberries and drank tea    9    came from farms in the mountains.

Now, Back in Beijing, I am looking forward to the next trip. I suppose I    10     (go) to another warm place next time.

Before setting off, they visited the sights in Vancouver. Though it was rainy, they were able     3     (take)a boat ride out into the bay. The next day, they too a pleasant hike in a forest just a short     4     (distant) away.

The next morning, they took the train to Lake Louise and after     5     (get) off, a taxi took them to Lake Louise    6     they were struck by the beauty of the blue water.

Then they went to Jasper,     7     ( enjoy ) the beautiful scenery as well as many different creatures. There, they took the train to Toronto. One of the train's first stops was in Edmonton, which has one of the     8     ( large ) shopping malls in North America. From Edmonton, the train     9     (head)southeast across the great Canadian Prairie. They were amazed to see such     10     open country.

What will post-pandemic (疫情后)travel look like? People are anxious     1     (get) out of their houses, but they may not take the plane as their first choice.

One way is a good old-fashioned road trip. Recently, many states     2     (relax) their rules on tourism, so they're encouraging people to move around within their home state to help promote local     3     (business). A road trip in one's own car allows for a sense of control.     4     is easy to get home when you need to, and you know whose germs (细菌)are in your space.

Also, with post-pandemic comes the golden age of camping. That     5     (be) because travelers will be nervous about crowds and dying to avoid them. It will result in an increasing number of visitors to     6     (nation) parks, mountains, beaches, and other places     7     crowds are less likely to go. In this case, people choose to camp while keeping social distance,     8     (use) their own cars, and spending less money.

Whatever travel will look like, health is     9     major concern in everyone's mind. Meanwhile, people are sick of being indoors, so it's likely     10     tourism will reflect a growing need to promote good health while getting outside.

If you     1     (consider) Australia as a travel destination at the moment, please do some research before buying your tickets.

With pennies, for example, customers’ payments may be rejected if they try to use more than 25 one-cent coins at a time.
