19.Here are some of the movies that inspire you to travel.
The Lord of the Rings
The story is about Frodo,his friends and their adventurous journey through Middle Earth.Filmed in about 150locations all over New Zealand,this traveling movie shows its beauty.From the rolling hills of Matamata to the volcanic region of Mt Ruapehu,this is the best movie to see New Zealand.Also,this travel movie might have the only distinction of being inspired by travel too.The director of the movie Peter Jackson first read the novel on a train going from Wellington to Auckland when he was just seventeen.
Indiana Jones.The Complete Adventure Collection
Indiana Jones and travel are inseparable.Everyone remembers the red line on the world map that shows up on screen when he flies.The Egypt scenes in Raiders of the Lost Ark were filmed in Tunisia.Temple of doom was filmed mostly in Sri Lanka and Macau.The Last Crusade was filmed in Italy,Spain and Jordan including an excellent view of Petra.Unlike the other,Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was filmed almost entirely in the United States.However,their shots of Iguazu Falls are amazing.
Romancing the Stone and jewel of the Nile
This movie series focuses on a romance writer Joan and her adventures with a soldier of fortune named Jack.In Romancing the stone Joan goes to Colombia to save her sister who was kidnapped(绑架).In the sequel Joan goes to the fictional kingdom of Kadir set somewhere in the Middle East.Romancing the stone's scenes were shot mostly in Mexico.For Jewel of the Nile,the scenes were mostly shot in France and Morocco.
The Talented Mr Ripley
Tom Ripley is a working class young man.Through a case of mistaken identity,he is asked to go to Italy to convince a wealthy businessman's son to come home.This travel movie starts in New York and heads to the fictional resort of Mongibello.The last section of the movie is filmed mostly in Rome and Naples.The locations are beautiful.They also did a good job of showing Italy as it looked in the 1960s.
25.If someone is interested in seeing views in Sri Lanka,he/she would most probably watch the filmA.
A.Temple of Doom
B.The last Crusade

9.On the way to California,my family stopped for lunch.As we walked toward the entrance to the restaurant,a man with a dirty face jumped up from a chair,opened the door for us and greeted us in a friendly way.
Once inside,my daughters said in a low voice,"Mom,he smells."After we ordered our lunch,I explained,telling the kids to look beyond the dirt.Seeing this rudeness truly upset me,I wanted to set a good example to my children,but sometimes being a good example was difficult.When our meal arrived,I realized I had left the car-sick pills in the truck.With the windiest trip ahead,the kids needed them,so I went back to the car for them.
Just then,the"doorman"was opening the door for me,I said a loud"thank you"to him as I exited.
When I returned,we talked a bit.He said he was not allowed inside unless he bought food.I went back and told my family his situation.Then I asked our waitress to add one soup and sandwich.The kids looked puzzled,but when I said the order was for the"doorman",they smiled.When it was time to continue our trip,I noticed the"doorman"enjoying his meal.Upon seeing me,he stood up and thanked me heartily.He then lifted his hand for a handshake and I gratefully accepted.I suddenly noticed the tears in his eyes-tears of gratitude (感恩).What happened next drew great astonishment:I gave the"doorman"a hug.

10.In October 2010,I left my hometown and family in Virginia and moved to Iowa so I could be coached by Liang Chow.I'd been dreaming of an Olympic gold medal since I was eight--but gradually,that dream seemed like a million miles away.
On January 2,2012,while Mom was visiting me in Iowa,I told her,"I don't like gymnastics anymore.I want to try dancing,or become a singer.I can get a job in Virginia.I just want to come home."
Mom's eyes narrowed and her expression turned to stone."You're breaking my heart Brie."She said."you've been doing gymnastics for ten years,and now you want to quit?Have you lost your mind?"
I hadn't lost my mind,but I had lost my fire.It's an entirely different thing to push toward that dream when you feel alone.
"I'm not trying to break your heart,Mom,"I said."I just don't want to do it anymore."
"I know you miss home.But you've signed a contract that says you will represent your country to the best of your ability.You've got a responsibility to your teammates.And now you just want to walk away?I will not let you be dishonorable.If you don't like gymnastics,then at the very least,you will finish the season."
The next afternoon as I dragged myself into Chow's gym.I thought of the efforts Mom had made in order to pay for my training.I thought of my two sisters:Arielle,who gave up ballroom dancing,and Joyelle,who stopped ice skating so that our single mom could afford to keep me in gymnastics.
For now,here's what you need to know:Exactly 210days before I ever attempted my first vault(跳跃)in the London Summer Olympics,my leap of faith came this close to ending in a crash of disaster.
