Do you like traveling? How can you make your trip more interesting? Here’s some advice.
Read!
Before we leave, we should search for some information online about the place we want to go to, such as its geography, its history, and its famous people. And we should read them carefully, so, we can really understand that place during our trip, even though we don’t have much time.
Take photos!
Most of us take a camera when we travel. If you want to take some photos, remember to choose the most special sights (景点). Don’t choose the sight we can see in other places. For example, Beidaihe, Qingdao, and Zhuhai are coastal(沿海的) cities. Don’t only take photos of the sea. You should take photos of something special, too.
Taste
Don’t buy the food that you like most because you can buy it in your own city or town. You’d better taste something special in the local (当地的) place. Food in some places is very delicious, and from the food, you can find its food culture. So why not taste it? Maybe you have just one chance to taste it in your life.
Write!
When you visit a place, you should take a pen and a notebook, so you can write down what you see and what you think during the trip. Later, when you read it, you’ll feel that you can find the pleasure (乐趣) during the trip.

Do you like traveling? How can you make your trip more interesting? Here’s some advice.
Read!
Before we leave, we should search for some information online about the place we want to go to, such as its geography, its history, and its famous people. And we should read them carefully, so, we can really understand that place during our trip, even though we don’t have much time.
Take photos!
Most of us take a camera when we travel. If you want to take some photos, remember to choose the most special sights (景点). Don’t choose the sight we can see in other places. For example, Beidaihe, Qingdao, and Zhuhai are coastal(沿海的) cities. Don’t only take photos of the sea. You should take photos of something special, too.
Taste
Don’t buy the food that you like most because you can buy it in your own city or town. You’d better taste something special in the local (当地的) place. Food in some places is very delicious, and from the food, you can find its food culture. So why not taste it? Maybe you have just one chance to taste it in your life.
Write!
When you visit a place, you should take a pen and a notebook, so you can write down what you see and what you think during the trip. Later, when you read it, you’ll feel that you can find the pleasure (乐趣) during the trip.
Before we travel to a place, we should ________46________. (不超过6词)
