题目内容
1.Reports tell us that Americans work more and vacation less than people in other major industrial countries.Still,millions of Americans do try to get away from home for a week or two in the summer months.Some might even have the time and money to spend longer on vacation.For example,many retired Americans can be found driving around the United States in big recreational vehicles,known as R.V.'s.These serve as a home away from home.In fact,it might even be their only home as they see the country.
Some American families get in their cars and drive to historic places like Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia.There,they can experience what life was like for early Americans.If that is not exciting enough,also in Williamsburg is a water park and an amusement park with rides.
Other Americans visit national parks like Yellowstone or Yosemite out in the West.They want to spend time with nature.Or they take their vacation by a lake or the ocean.They might swim or fish.But many just want to sit and enjoy the feeling of doing nothing,except maybe read a book.
Some families fly to other countries on vacation.Or they go on a cruise ship(大型游轮)and stop in different ports.Cruise ships are like floating cities.
But not everyone goes someplace special on vacation.This might be the only time for people to work on things like home improvement projects.And while they do that,they might think of all the fun their friends are having.
