Jim Green has been in
China for more than two years. He has been to many
interesting 31 in Beijing, but he has not yet been to many
other parts of 32 . Last week he went to Mount Emei in Sichuan with
his 33 .
Many people like to
travel by 34 , but the Greens think that travelling by train is the best. It is
much 35 and far more enjoyable than a rushed journey by air. They had a
won?derful train ride to Chengdu 36 they went on to Mount Emei by bus.
The train was quite
nice and tidy, and there weren't too many people in 37 sleeping car. The
Greens could stand up and 38 around. It was a long journey, 39 none of
them felt tired. They kept 40 the beautiful things out of the window.
They talked, laughed and played cards. The conductor kept coming to give them
hot water and 41 them newspapers. People nearby 42 with each other.
A young man tried to speak English with Mr and Mrs Green. Jim thought the train
was like a big moving party. He went to sleep quite 43 . He enjoyed
listening to the sound of the running train and then fell asleep.
When Jim woke up the
next morning, the train was already 44 Chengdu. His train ride seemed really 45
, but his memory (记忆) of the pleasant journey will last
long.
