Unit 4
JOURNEY ACROSS
A VAST LAND
Words and expressions
A photographer was enrolled in a winter camp and on a freezing cold day, he boarded the train bound for a harbour city. The anticipated arrival time was six in the evening.Drawing back the curtain, he was astonished to see misty clouds floating on the peak of a massive mountain.Contrary to his initial belief, what he considered boring on the train proved to be one of the highlights of the awesome trip with the train thundering on, he reached the destination at dusk.Spectacular scenery and pleasant fresh air literally took his breath away.Tall buildings of glass and steel arose everywhere.He was attracted by the exceptional advertisements in the shopping mall, selling crafts, antiques and bunches of flowers.Feeling a little hungry, he bought a piece of toast in the supermarket alongside the street, where he chatted with people with different accents.Anyhow, he owed his happiness to the winter camp.The next evening, he would proceed to the next stop.
