¡¡¡¡China is planning to readjust its public holidays to relieve the increasingly heavier burden placed on its hot tourist attractions during the¡°Golden Weeks¡±, officials from the China National Tourism Administration was quoted as saying by Hong Kong-based Wen Wei Po£®

¡¡¡¡The newspaper on Monday said that the administration had drafted a proposal suggesting several adjustment strategies£®The proposal is expected to be submitted to the National People's Congress for discussion£®

¡¡¡¡At the close of the nation's National Day holidays, also the 21st¡°Golden Week¡±since the system was introduced in 1999, golden weeks over the past eight years have brought about huge returns for the nation's tourism industry£®However, voices calling for cancellation of the nationwide holidays are becoming ever stronger as such travels have posed big pressures on nationwide transportation, accommodation and environmental protection£®

¡¡¡¡According to a survey launched by a mainland media outlet, 61.46 percent of a total of 3,071 participants in the survey are in favor of making changes to such public holidays£®

¡¡¡¡Experts also say that current week-long holidays that fall on every May 1 and October 1 are not an ideal way for people to take a break£®Holiday makers blindly follow the overwhelming push of the tourism administration to rush between different sightseeing spots without even taking enough rest£®Moreover, these travelers have also caused a big headache to accommodation and transportation services in tourist locations, said Wang Jianmin, a researcher from the Tourism Research Centre of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences£®

¡¡¡¡The survey also finds that there is an increasing number of advocates who suggest the prolonging of rest days over traditional Chinese festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival£®

¡¡Everyone told me to make my travel preparations early£¬ but I thought I had plenty of time£® I had no idea how much there was to do and I waited too long before I began getting ready£®

¡¡First£¬ I had to apply for a passport (»¤ÕÕ) and visa (Ç©Ö¤) because I was going to ¡¡1¡¡I had to get several inoculations (Ô¤·À×¢Éä) at 2 office£® Then I needed to drop by the bank and get some traveler's checks£®(֧Ʊ)

¡¡¡¡3¡¡£¬ there were many things ¡¡4¡¡at home£® I had the phone disconnected (¶Ï¿ª) and the dog ¡¡5¡¡the kennels (ÎÑ)£¬ but I almost forgot to have the milk and newspaper deliveries stopped£® The postman had to remind me to leave my forwarding address at ¡¡6¡¡office£® I know it would have slipped my mind if he hadn't mentioned it£®

¡¡The day I was supposed to leave£® I realized I still hadn't received my passport and visa£® I simply couldn't believe the time ¡¡7¡¡to quickly£® I was really afraid I would be left behind£®

¡¡Fortunately£¬ the mail was delivered early and my passport arrived£® ¡¡8¡¡I got to the airport£¬ they were already calling my flight£® I just barely had time to make it£® As soon as I sat down ¡¡9¡¡£¬ I remembered that I hadn't taken my camera£¬ but it was too late to worry about that£® I would have to buy another one if I wanted to take pictures£®

Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that¡¯s only superficial£¨±íÃæÉϵģ©.    1    , in good restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork,    2    you find the chopsticks not helpful    3    .

There have been many great inventions, which have changed the way we live. The first great invention was    1     that is still very important today¡ªthe wheel(ÂÖ×Ó). This made it easier to    2     heavy things and to travel long distances.

For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that have as much   3   as the wheel. Then in the early 1800¡¯s the world started to    4    . There was little unknown land in the world. People did not    5     to explore any more. They began to work so as to

    6    life better.

In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. ¡¡¡¡7     them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These all became a big   8     of our life today.

The first part of the 20th century saw more great    9    : the helicopter in 1909; movies with sound in 1926; the computer in 1928; and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time    10 

a new material was first made. Nylon came   11     in 1935. It changed the   12     of clothes people had been wearing.

The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over   13    .

They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live    14     lives. By the 1960¡¯s most people could    15     to live at least 60.

By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions    16     to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The world was ¡¡¡¡17    to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into    18    . Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries,    19     China and Japan have made their steps into space.

In 1969 man took his biggest step away from the earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly just a ¡¡¡¡20     thought. New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never dreamed of.

There have been many great inventions, which have changed the way we live. The first great invention was    1     that is still very important today¡ªthe wheel(ÂÖ×Ó). This made it easier to    2     heavy things and to travel long distances.

For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that have as much   3   as the wheel. Then in the early 1800¡¯s the world started to    4    . There was little unknown land in the world. People did not    5     to explore any more. They began to work so as to

    6    life better.

In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. ¡¡¡¡7     them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These all became a big   8     of our life today.

The first part of the 20th century saw more great    9    : the helicopter in 1909; movies with sound in 1926; the computer in 1928; and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time    10 

a new material was first made. Nylon came   11     in 1935. It changed the   12     of clothes people had been wearing.

The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over   13    .

They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live    14     lives. By the 1960¡¯s most people could    15     to live at least 60.

By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions    16     to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The world was ¡¡¡¡17    to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into    18    . Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries,    19     China and Japan have made their steps into space.

In 1969 man took his biggest step away from the earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly just a ¡¡¡¡20     thought. New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never dreamed of.
