A
It is a good time to travel in summer for many Americans. They can take their children who don’t need to go to school. And most important of all, people all need a rest after working hard for half a year. When Americans take a rest, they often go to their favorite places.
Most Americans want to make their vacations very special. So families would like to plan their trips with the kids ahead of time. There are special programs for children in more and more “family friendly” vacation resorts so that children can also have a great time there.
Not only Americans like traveling. People from all over the world choose to relax themselves in different places. For example, history lovers search for places of interest and museums where they could see some wonders. Some parents take their children to see many flowers and animals very closely, without disturbing(破坏) the sensitive(敏感的) balance of nature. Some people like to go boating, fishing or skiing. Still others even travel around the world.
Nowadays, it is very easy and fast for people to travel by plane, train, car or bus. Though traveling makes people very busy, we can get knowledge and relax ourselves. So try our best to spare some time to travel and enjoy ourselves.
