With the rapid development of economy, Chinese people are becoming richer and richer. To improve life quality, they will try to find chances to travel. And also the Chinese government has arranged for two golden weeks to that people can have more time to enjoy traveling. As you have seen from the pictures, some places of interest are crowded with tourists. More people are now going out for sightseeing. Then why is traveling becoming more and more popular
As a matter of fact, many of you have ever been to some places of interest, can you tell us the names of the tourist attractions Well, all these places are located in China. Have you ever been abroad for a visit Neither have I. Then it doesn’t make any difference. We can travel abroad by reading. Here is a passage about An adventure in Africa. (Teach the students how to pronounce the word “adventure and explain the meaning.)

Further thinking:
(1). Should Toby drink the cow’s blood
(2). Should they get as close as possible to the wild animals
After all, wild animals are wild animals. If they are hungry, they might attack anything.
5. It is certain that staying with Kenya local people for Toby and Colin will be quite an experience and they had a good time watching the wild animals. So they are continuing their exciting trip. Do you know the name of the highest mountain in Africa Kilimanjaro. In which country does it lie

Discussion:
If you feel exhausted in climbing mountain, should you give up half way
Adventures such as mountain climbing and white-water rafting can be dangerous. Why do some people risk their lives for these kinds of adventure
Do you think it is worth risking your life for adventure Why or why not
