If you want to travel with a partner, you may ask for one on the Internet. There are some tips about how to choose a right partner on the Internet:

Unluckily, you can’t ask a person if he has a good feeling. If you ask, everyone will tell you that they do! It is important that you have to get to know your travel partner to find out what kind of feeling he really has.

You can tell a lot about a person’s feeling by the words he uses. Ask him about his worst trip. Is he laughing about it now, or still unhappy? Does his worst trip sound like an adventure to you? If so, he doesn’t match you. Having a good feeling is important for having a good time.

Talk about the hotel you would like to stay in. See if you have the same habit of spending holidays. This is such a quick way to find a partner.

What’s more? Always keep in contact with(联系) your travelling partner when travelling. Don’t simply hang out without telling them, and don’t let them do it to you, either.

Are you ready to take action to protect Planet Earth? You may think it impossible，but you can begin by taking some small，but important，first steps．Many children and their classes in the USA are taking action．

Children Campaign Against Waste

Children are paying attention to the packaging(包装)of the things they buy．Packaging includes all the things you throw away when you unwrap anything new．One third of all rubbish is packaging．Mrs. Perez’s 4th grade class decides to make their school and neighbourhood know the waste in packaging．They want people to think before they buy．They also want to let people who make the products know that they want less waste in packaging．So they start a campaign to help people change how they shop．

Children Save Water

    Another class decides to help save water．Here’s how they got started．

Miguel Salazar lives in Meridien, Texas．Every day he walks home from school and passes Carrollton Creek(小溪)．The creek is filled with rubbish．But the creek was not always this way．Miguel’s grandfather remembers flowers and plants grew along it．Many people fished there．So Miguel’s class decides to clean up the creek．They make a plan．

Having returned from her round trip (往返旅程), the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes (应给予) me￡12,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office, “you sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ￡12.”
Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, madam,” he said politely, “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”
The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburnt,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
“Yes,” She answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!”
“That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three…”
“I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll be four and a half.” Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, madam,” he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”
“Err, well…” the woman looked at the child. “I mean… she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”
“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs… let me see…￡13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe ￡1.50. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”
The woman stood up, took the child’s hand and left the office.
