I’m Rory Blake. My family is travelling in London now. And I live on a houseboat (游艇) with my family. Now the boat is staying on the River Thames. We use it to travel and at the same time, it is our “hotel”.
People may think that houseboats are simple, but we have everything—two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. There’s even a “garden” on the roof of the boat. We grow many vegetables up there.
Our houseboat is usually in the center of London. It’s a cool place to keep the boat—we’re near some famous museums and a good library, and the view is amazing.
The only problem is the ________. When it’s windy, the boat goes up and down! Also, the boat needs painting every year. In fact, my dad and his friend are painting it now.
When visitors come here, they walk into our living room first. It’s a bright room as the sun can shine in through the window. You can find a big TV, a sofa, two beautiful paintings and many other things in it.
The kitchen is my favorite room. My mom is making dinner there now. We’re going to eat in our “garden”, on the roof!

When Dena would go for a free weekend trip to an unknown place, her sister worried she’d have problems.
In fact, the offer was not only real, but also a lot of fun. The advertisement(广告)said next to nothing about the trip. It only suggested wearing heavy clothes and sports shoes.
Mystery(神秘)trips becoming more popular
In parts of the US, mystery trips have developed quite well recently. Whether travelling by bus, train or plane, these vacations have different costs and take you to different places. Organizers(组织者)don’t tell people where they’re going.
Denise started Magical Mystery Tours 10 years ago. Her company plans hundreds of trips every year.
“The magical thing about a mystery trip is that you don’t have control,” she said. “Surprises are really fun.”
Other companies(公司)such as Pink Bus Mystery Trips, Pack Up+Go and Surprise Me Trips. Rustic Pathways mainly offers summer group tours.
Mystery is part of the adventure(冒险)
The group Dena went with enjoyed dinner, nature and horse riding. They visited the towns of Davis and Thomas. They watched musical acts and spent the night at a lovely mountain hotel. Dena was back home the following night, and her sister didn’t have to worry anymore.
“I would certainly do it again,” Dena said, “If I can go on another unknown trip, I’ll not plan anything. It’s part of the adventure!”

四、阅读回答问题
Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off(起飞)and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport and into the city.
I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
31.Why do many people like to travel by plane
______________________________________________________________
32.What does the writer think of the plane
______________________________________________________________
33.Which is not the good thing about the train
