            Tony Wheeler was born to travel. His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life, Wheeler and his family lived in many different countries.

            In the early 1970s, Tony met a young woman named Maureen. They soon married. Before getting jobs, Tony and Maureen wanted to travel. They took a year-long trip from England, through Asia, to Australia. On the trip, they visited places like Iran(伊朗)and India.

    When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia, people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions, Wheeler wrote a book called Across Asia on the Cheap.

    Hello Sandy,

          We have just returned from our holiday. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.

          Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as he used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!

          I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峡谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火车)are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.

          Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early (we usually expect snow in January). It rained all day, and then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine! Both Jenny and I are well. I don't know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.

    Please write to us to tell us your news.

    Yours,

    Victor

         At present, more and more people are crazy about travelling. Why do people travel? “To see more of the world,” many people would say. But travelling abroad now means much more than that for the growing number of Chinese tourists. Of course it offers us good opportunities to meet people from other countries and learn about their culture and customs.

          According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 1 billion people travelled to another country in 2012. In 2012, Chinese people travelled abroad 30 percent more than in 2011. The prosperity (繁荣) of the tourism industry can also bring both our country and foreign countries great economic benefits (经济利益). Chinese people usually join large tourist groups and visit several countries in one trip.

          Chinese people don't just travel for sightseeing. The China International Travel Service Company said that all their tour trips were sold out a month before Christmas Day. Stores offered discounts (打折) during that time, so shopping in Europe and the United States is popular among Chinese travelers.

          In December, China is going through a very cold winter. So many people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia because the weather there is quite pleasant.

    The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can travel abroad. But many of them don't have a sense of public manners. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world's second worst tourists.

          If you want to change that bad name, remember to avoid the following: littering, spitting, snatching bus seats, line-jumping, taking off shoes in public, talking loudly and smoking in non-smoking areas. Besides, we should learn some necessary manners of foreign countries.

    1. (1) Chinese people travel abroad not to ________.

      A . go shopping B . see more of the world C . go sightseeing D . make money
    2. (2) According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, ________.

      A . 30% of the people who travelled abroad are Chinese    B . the number of people who travelled abroad rose by 30%   C . more than 1 billion people travelled abroad in 2012 D . more than 1 billion Chinese people travelled abroad in 2012  
    3. (3) Which of the following is NOT true about Chinese people?

      A . Chinese people like joining large tourist groups. B . Many Chinese like to go to Southeast Asia in winter for sightseeing. C . More and more Chinese people can travel abroad now. D . Chinese are the second worst tourists in the world.
    4. (4) As a good tourist, you should ________.

      A . litter and spit here and there       B . jump the line and take off the shoes in public    C . have a sense of public manners D . speak loudly and smoke as you like  
    5. (5) What's the best title of the passage?

      A . Travelling B . Travelling abroad   C . Chinese tourists D . Chinese people like travelling
