It is going down and the water is going up. In 2040, Venice will be under water. The Adriatic Sea will cover the city. The Venetians (威尼斯人) love their city and want to stay there. So they want to save Venice from the sea. They do not want to leave. How can they save Venice? They can build some strong huge walls and gates in the sea.

Usually, I would spend months preparing for my trips, but this time, I just packed my bags and started off. I felt a little nervous (紧张的) but excited to explore Hong Kong. At first, I didn’t feel anything special. Hong Kong looked just like any other big city, with tall buildings, busy streets and lots of cars. It reminded me of my home city, Mumbai. But later, I found many special things about it. Here are some of my favourite moments from this trip. One evening I hiked up Victoria Peak to see the city lights. The scenery was amazing! When it was time to go down, I chose to take the tram (有轨电车). The ride was fast and exciting! During my stay in Hong Kong, I spent a lot of time ferrying (乘渡轮) from one island (岛) to another. One evening, I took a ferry across Victoria Harbour. The city lights shone around me as the soft wind blew through my hair. I enjoyed every second (秒) of the ride. One day, after climbing a hill in Cheung Chau, I was out of breath. But guess what? At the top, I found a Chinese-style pavilion (中式亭子). I sat there for a long time. The scenery was so beautiful that I didn’t want to leave. Hong Kong is also a great place for food lovers. I don’t eat meat very often, but I couldn’t resist a bowl of beef noodles there. The beef, noodles, and even the soup were very delicious. Now I can still remember how good they tasted! 26．What did the writer think of Hong Kong at first? A．It was very modern.
