The Surprising purpose of travel No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his headon his old, familiar pillow.

Of course, this mental flexibility doesnt come from mere distance, a simple change in latitude and longitude. Instead, this renaissance of creativity appears to be a side effect of difference. (Para. 8, L6) d. We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret cornerstones of creativity. (Para. 9, L4) 我 們 旅 行 是 因 為 我 們 需要 旅 行 ， 因 為 距 離 與 差異 是 創(chuàng) 造 力 的 秘 密 基 石 。 我 們 回 家 后 ， 家 還 是 那個(gè) 家 ， 但 是 我 們 的 思 維已 經(jīng) 有 所 改 變 ， 而 這 就可 以 改 變 一 切 。 。 e. When we get home, home is still the same. But something in our mind has been changed, and that changes everything. (Para. 9, L6) 1 What is the most useful purpose of travel in your opinion?2 Do you agree that cultural difference is the biggest barrier in travel?3 Can travel affect our personalities? If so, how? To see new places and meet new friends. To have a break from the routine life. For business. To visit friends and relatives.1. What is the most useful purpose of travel in your opinion? 2. Do you agree that cultural difference is the biggest barrier in travel? Yes, I agree. Cultural difference poses a huge problem to travel. If we dont know the language, the customs, and history of the place we are visiting, we will face many embarrassing problems in communicating with the local people and may even violate the taboos in another culture without being aware of it. Im afraid not. Cultural difference is not a problem at all. On the contrary, it can serve as a stimulus to enable us to be more curious about this world and gain a deeper understanding of other cultures as well as our own culture. I think travel can affect our personalities. In most situations, peoples personalities will be more or less changed when travel comes to an end, just as the green and luxuriant plants after a rain. We can see such differences from peoples lively appearance, relaxed spiritual state, cheerful ways of talking, walking, and even smiling.3. Can travel affect our personalities? If so, how?To be continued No, I dont think travel can have an effect on our personality. Personality is our whole character and nature and is greatly affected by the environment in which we live. Personality is relatively stable. Maybe during a travel, our personality may change a little since we are in a different environment, but this change is temporary and shouldnt last long. When we come back, we are still in the old environment. Obviously, our personality will regain its old traits just in a couple of days or weeks.3. Can travel affect our personalities? If so, how? How do you understand the following quotes “ 讀 萬 卷書 不 如 行 萬 里 路 。 ” and “ Travel is fatal to prejudice.and narrow-mindedness ” ? This old Chinese saying tells us that travelling is a good way to experience life. Getting ahead in your career is not just about getting good grades or test scores in school. It is also about having real experience with the world beyond your borders experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own. To be continued How do you understand the following quotes “讀 萬 卷書 不 如 行 萬 里 路 。 ” and “Travel is fatal to prejudiceand narrow-mindedness”? But Mark Twain, the famous American writer, believes that travel to foreign places, experiencing new foods, unusual sights, strange sounds and
