    Maxime and Lise are a young French couple. They are ready to travel across China from Beijing to Yunnan Province on a tandem bicycle(双人自行车). They have two main purposes and one of them is that they want to encourage green 1 through it.

    Maxime, 26, works helping farmers raise their cows, 2 his wife Lisa, 26, is a teacher. The two also like sharing their travel stories on Facebook.

    “We choose a tandem bicycle because it makes it 3 to communicate with each other about interesting people and things we come across during the journey. 4, bicycling is healthier. And it's a cheaper and more environment-friendly way of traveling than 5 cars, motors and so on,” the couple said.

    As for the other 6 of their journey, the two said they wanted to get people's good ideas on topics such as health, economy(经济) and politics. When they were asked 7 they chose to visit China, they said it was because they often talked about its long history and beauty and how much of the country is competitive (有竞争力的) in the world.

    “We know China is a country with a large population and will be the 8of the economy around the world in the future. We want to get a better understanding of the country and its people. We 9 the country,” they said.

    The couple will be on their journey to China soon. We hope they can make more people further 10 China by sharing what they see and hear on the way. Meanwhile, we hope they enjoy their travel in China.

    The World Tourism Organization says that space will soon become a popular place to go on holiday-possibly by 2020. One Japanese company is planning a space holiday centre. It will look like a bicycle wheel and have a very modern hotel for 100 people and a park. It will travel round the Earth at a height of 300 km. The company hopes the centre will be ready in 2017. The company manager says he thinks that flying to the centre will probably be quicker than flying from Hong Kong to Singapore.  After they arrive at the centre, tourists can take trips to the moon or go for walks in space. What about the cost? Well, the company believes that people will be happy to pay about $100, 000 for a trip.  But they think that if more people want to go, the trip will become much cheaper.

    An American company is also thinking of building a very modern hotel, called the Lunar Hotel, on the moon. Most of the hotel will be under the ground, so it won't become too hot or too cold. The rooms will look just like they do on Earth. The guests will eat normal food for lunch. The cooks will just push a button(按钮) to mix dried food with water to become a meal! There will be little or no dirt (尘土) and there won't be much water. So the hotel won't wash the towels and sheets (床单) —they will be thrown away.

    Traveling has always been a good way to relax. But this is not true for Xiao Lin(not her real name).

    In November, Xiao Lin took a trip to Lijiang, a tourist city in Yunnan province, and had dinner at a restaurant. She had a fight with a group of local people because they made a joke with her while she was eating. Later, they beat her heavily and her face was injured(受伤)badly, reported CCTV.

    This made the public very _________(anger). In fact, she is not the first person to be injured at famous scenic spots(景区) in China. Last month, the National Tourism Administration(国家旅游局) gave serious warnings to three national 5A scenic spots. It also asked them to change and improve in six months.

    The three spots are the Old Town of Lijiang, Jingpo Lake in Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang, and Laohutan ocean Park in Dalian, Liaoning. According to People's Daily, the three spots received the most complains(投诉) from visitors during this Spring Festival.

    “We're sorry for our bad work,” the Old Town of Lijiang government wrote on its Sina Weibo account. “We are open to tourists' suggestions, and will make things right.”

    If the three spots don't correct themselves in six months, the National Tourism Administration will remove(去除) them from the 5 A scenic spot list,  reported Guangming Daily. 

    “I'm glad to hear that the spots will improve themselves,” said a Sina Weibo user, who once went to Lijiang but had a bad experience there. “I hope they will change into better ones.”

    One day, we hiked to a popular hiking way in Canada. Everything was beautiful. My cousin and I saw lots of animals like squirrels(松鼠) and chipmunks(花栗鼠). Surprisingly we saw a chipmunk with dirty hands. His hands were of berry juice! My cousin and I named it Jairo. We 7 that Jairo was a very clever chipmunk. He us the whole time. My cousin said, “Do you want to shake with him?” So I held out my hand. I could believe it when he touched my hand! It was the time in my life I had touched a wild animal. I did it! What an moment!

    At that moment, I believed that animals could be friends. People and animals should live together .
