herarticleandanswerthefollowingquestions.)
Iliketravelling.Ithinktravellingisoneofthemostimportantactivitiesnowadays.
During the winter holiday, I took a five-day trip to Hongkong with my parents. We visited two
famous theme parks——Disneyland and Ocean Park. They are children’s
favourite. People always think museums can help us learn more about a city
and its culture. So we also visited some museums in Hongkong. Besides, we
trieddeliciousfoodthereanddidsomeshopping.
Manyofmyfriendsalsochosetotravelonholiday.Thenwhydowetravel?
First, travelling helps us broaden our knowledge. When travelling, we can learn things we can’t
learn in the classroom. For things told by other people, we should test and verify (验证) by ourselves.
Only in this way we can bear the knowledge in heart and let it become a part of ourselves. For
experienceuntoldbyotherpeople,itwouldalsobegoodforustofirstunderstanditbytravellingandtell
otherpeopleafterwards.
Second,travellinghelpsuswalkawayfromthecircleofeverydaylifeandenvironment.Mostofthe
time, we will find out that when we step into a new environment, our opinions will also change. By
travelling, we will switch into a new and different environment, which can let us get to know ourselves
againandhelpusgetoutofthetrouble.
Third, travelling lets us understand ourselves better. Not only can we better understand our own
thoughts, but we can also know more about our abilities. Many people think the world is a mirror,
throughwhichwecanseeourselvesclearly.
Withoutadoubt,travellingalsohelpsustakearestandenjoylife.Makingfriendswithotherpeople
is an important source of happiness. Except for staying at home or studying at school, spending some
timetravellingoutsidecanenhancepeople'ssenseofhappiness.
It's very meaningful to spend some time travelling every year because we can gain enjoyment and
growthduringthejourney.
