Perhaps you should consider taking your next vacation there. Once you arrive in Cyprus, you may think that you have landed in the UK. There are lots of Englishmen everywhere. Most people in the country speak excellent English as a second language and it's taught in all the schools. They drive on the left and all the road signs are in English as well as Greek.

For people who just want to relax, Cyprus is the perfect holiday destination(目的地). With miles of sandy beaches and pleasant bays, you are sure to find somewhere to calm down while you enjoy the sun. The island is filled with centuries of rich cultural history, and if you want to see more of it during your holiday, be sure to go to those places of interest. When you decide to enjoy your holiday there, whether to relax on the beach or to enjoy the night life of the bars and restaurants, the island has something for everyone.

For example, some people do better with specific mileage(英里数), while others understand simple driving time best. Tell the person about important and hard­to­miss landmarks(地标). Landmarks will give the person an idea of the progress they're making. They'll also let the person know if they're still on the path you advised them to take. Also, landmarks will draw the person's attention to each part of the whole route(路线). Describe whether something is on the left or right of the road. Don't take for granted(理所当然) that the person knows which side of the road a turn, a landmark, or their place will be on. To avoid(避免) getting the person lost, always show which side of the street they need to either turn to or look for a landmark on. Provide travel time for the whole trip and each part of it. Specify how much time the whole trip will take. Also, tell the person how much time certain parts of the trip will take. This will give the person an idea of when they need to be ready to turn. Let the person know that if they're traveling within the speed limit(限制), they should be able to arrive at their place in a certain amount of time. If they have to make some turns, tell them how long they'll be on certain roads before they should turn. For example，“__▲__”. (　)1.What can we know from the first paragraph?
