Section Ⅰ Listening and Speaking & Reading and Thinking
Travelling
Travelling is of course one of the most exciting experiences a person can have in their lifetime. With the improvement of people’s living standards, more and more people tend to travel to relax and enjoy their life. They travel to see other countries and continents, modern cities and some ancient towns. It is always interesting to discover new things and new ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food, and to listen to different types of music.
