Have you ever been to Singapore For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, so it’s also a good place to practice your English!
Why is Singapore a wonderful place to take a holiday for many Chinese tourists
wonderful adj. 极好的
population n. 人口
quarter 四分之一
Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China Maybe you fear that you won’t be able to find anything to eat in a foreign country. In Singapore, however, you’ll find a lot of food from China; you won’t have any problem finding rice, noodles, or dumplings. However, if you’re feeling brave, Singapore is an excellent place to try new food. Whether you like Indian food, western food, or Japanese food, you’ll find it all in Singapore if you look!
What food can you enjoy in Singapore
fear v. 害怕；担心
brave adj. 勇敢的
excellent adj. 卓越的；极好的
Indian adj.印度的；印度人的
Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night Singapore has a night zoo called the ‘Night Safari’. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the daytime, you might understand why this zoo is so special. A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time to watch them. If you go to see lions, tigers, or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than a normal zoo.
dark n. 黄昏；黑暗
fox n. 狐狸
natural adj. 自然的；自然界的
environment n. 环境
Why is Night Safari so special
One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like—spring, summer, autumn, or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far from China!
temperature n. 温度
all year round 一年到头；终年 (=all year long) all day long / round 整天 all night long / round整夜
equator n. 赤道
spring n. 春天
autumn n. 秋天
When is the best time to visit Singapore
whenever conj. 无论如何

When I was a young girl, all I ever wanted to do was travel , and I decided that the best way to do this was to become a flight attendant.I’ve been a a flight attendant for two years now. It’s a really interesting job because I travel all over the world. I discovered that the most important requirement was to speak English well, so I studied English at the Hilltop Language School for five years before I became a flight attendant. It was because I could speak English that I got the job. Thank you, Hilltop Language School!
