Hi, friends! Do your parents encourage you to travel? Greg’s dream was 21 (travel) around Asia. He got the
idea after he 22 (finish) a long bike ride. At first, he 23 (fear) his parents wouldn’t agree to let
him go. He didn’t tell his parents his idea. He 24 (simple) told his friend Brooks about it. Brooks also
enjoyed 25 (ride) a bike. They made a plan to travel from Tokyo to Mumbai (孟买) by bike.
To pay for the trip, Greg and Brooks tried to save some money. Before setting out (出发), they told 26
(they) parents about their plan. It was 27 (believe) that their parents agreed. And they got two new cameras
from their parents. Then they could take some photos with them.
On their way, they saw deserts, rainforests and mountains. They visited modern cities and 28 (peace)
villages. And they made many friends. They also learned two new languages — Indian and 29 (Japan).
Here are some pieces of Greg’s advice.
To have a perfect vacation, you shouldn’t carry too many things with you. Be flexible (灵活的). Don’t plan
everything. Then you’ll be more relaxed and 30 (happy). Be polite. And people will be more likely to help you.
