When I was a college student, I did a lot of traveling abroad. That was because a professor 【小题1】 me to do so. She said, “Now it is the time for you to travel around the world, 【小题2】 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun?” I 【小题3】 her.
Since I started to work for a 【小题4】 company, however, I have done most of my traveling through the Internet. By using the Internet, I have seen the 【小题5】 of many cities on my computer screen. And I have really made business 【小题6】, too. With the help of the Internet, I have also got 【小题7】 about food in different countries.
Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 【小题8】 necessary when I happened to read a famous chef's (厨师) comment on the Internet. He said, “It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the
【小题9】 around us at the same time. So why don't you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 【小题10】? “Those words reminded me of my 【小题11】 advice. As information technology 【小题12】 , you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various 【小题13】 you can get from traveling.
Today there are people who 【小题14】 direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet. It is not surprising to see a group of people 【小题15】 not with each other but into their micro phones. It seems as if such people are 【小题16】 by an invisible wall. They seem to be losing out on a good chance to 【小题17】 and talk with other people. I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology. We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily 【小题18】 more fruitful. However, we should never let it 【小题19】 our time for face to -face communication. Let's make use of information technology more 【小题20】 , and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.
Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses（球场） in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.
There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.
Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.
