A company called Space Perspective is planning to use its new balloon, called Space Neptune, to take people to the edge(边缘) of space. It is expected to take common people on an out-of-the-world vacation. Taking off from Kennedy Space Centre, the trip will take six hours— two hours travelling up, two hours enjoying the view and two hours travelling back. Below the hydrogen(氢气)- filled balloon, a spaceship is large enough for eight travellers to stand and walk freely within. Inside the ship are comfortable seats, free Wi-Fi and even a bar. During the six-hour trip, the guests will be able to send photos or videos to people on the ground while enjoying food and drinks. Although the balloon won't really fly into space, this won't be a problem for the guests.At 20 miles above the Earth, they will experience 360° views of the planet Earth and stars, feeling like they are in space. But the tickets are expensive. Seats on board were sold for $125,000 each. Unlike rockets, Space Neptune doesn't give out carbon dioxide which always leads to hotter temperatures on the Earth. The spaceship will also get its hydrogen from clean and renewable energy. This is why space travel with hydrogen balloons is thought to be the most environmentally friendly so far. The great news is that no special training is needed for this ride, but the bad news is, you'll probably have to wait because the first year's tickets have been sold out. So, start saving up! 1.新考法 写作手法 How does the writer start the passage? A. By asking a question. B. By telling a story. C. By giving an example. D.

Popular trips include relaxing on a warm beach. Or they involve sightseeing in a beautiful city.Increasingly, though, many of us don't want to just visit a place. We want to experience it. Experiential travel allows us to get closer to local people and their culture. For example,experiential travellers might stay a few weeks with local hosts. They might take classes to learn crafts. In other words, these travellers immerse(沉浸) themselves in a different culture. One such trip is in Fujian. There, a small group of travellers meet with a local fisherman. They learn how to fix nets and throw them in the water. They can fish together.Afterwards, they all cook and eat a meal with the fisherman's family. Experiential travel helps people become better citizens. First of all, it lets them understand a place more deeply than tourists usually do. As one traveller says, traditional travel is“like” studying science without ever doing a scientific experiment. Since they often stay and work in one place, travellers learn more about the lives of local people. It exposes(使体验) them to different ways of living and working. Experiential travellers often make lifelong friends with local people. They stay in touch after the trip has finished. Experiential travel helps travellers and local people feel like they are 课时of a global community. You don't need to use a travel company to get the benefits(好处) of experiential travel.You can do it by yourself. You can ask local people questions when you travel. Ask a driver about his or her life. You can also join in a soccer game in the street.
