【题目】You drive down the highway with your family or friends in the car,camping equipment and spare clothes in the back.Your windows are down and the wind is hitting you in the face.These are the makings of a classic US road trip.

Road trips are quite common in the country,especially during the Thanks-giving holiday,which is the busiest travel time of the year in the country for families and friends who want to get together.

And for students,going on a road trip is traditional after graduating from high school or college with their schoolmates.It usually involves traveling great distances across the US and camping out whenever possible. Destinations are different depending on where in the country someone is located.But they all show the same kind of adventure.Popular spots to travel to include Yellowstone National Park,the Grand Canon.

However,the most famous of all road trip journey is travelling across the US on Route 66.Route 66 begins in Chicago and ends in Los Angeles.The route goes past many of the lesser-known states.However,it's the bizarre(稀奇古怪的)and wonderful small attractions that draw many road trippers to them.The attractions one sees on these trips are quite strange and very difficult to explain to non-American.They are filled with gas stations that still look like they did back in the 1950s and small restaurants known as "mom and pop restaurants" where you can eat a greasy cheeseburger with a delicious milkshake.Route 66 is also filled with quite unusual,but still fascinating wonders.

Deep down,US road trips show the spirit of freedom and openness.The idea is that if you have a car,you have freedom to escape,to discover,to find yourself,to lose yourself.It's a powerful call,one that is part of the US' identity and culture.It is a must-do for anyone who plans to spend time in the US to see the country and all of its wonders.An old saying—"It's not the destination,it's the journey"—best explains what the experience of a road trip truly offers.
