    The summer holiday is coming. What a perfect chance to plan a trip! How about backpacking (背包旅行)? Maybe you're too young to do it. But it doesn't matter. Follow me and you'll learn about an interesting way to travel.

    Have you ever noticed foreigners with big bags on their backs? They wear jeans and T-shirts, and have guidebooks or maps in their hands. They look curious (好奇的) about everything they see. They enjoy themselves without a tour group. That's right! They are backpackers.

    Backpacking is a popular way for Westerners to travel outside of their country. It's cheap so that people can travel more and see more places. Most backpackers are young people because backpacking needs a strong body, courage and freedom.

    Backpackers usually do some homework before setting out. They search for information about their destination (目的地) country: food, fun places to visit, hostels (青年旅舍) and things to buy. They are sure they know how to change planes or where to get the train.

    Backpacking is a freer way to travel. You can change your destination whenever you want. It also allows travelers to explore and see more. And you can decide how long to stay there. If you go with a tour group, there may be a lot of rules and you may not be free to do things as you like.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Sara--I went to Beijing this summer vacation. I climbed the Great Wall on a sunny day. The Great Wall is very tall. It was hard to climb, but I got to the top.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Jack-I went to Huangguoshu Waterfall with my parents. Huangguoshu Waterfall is really wonderful. We rowed a boat near it. We all enjoyed ourselves.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Andy- I took a trip to Sanya with my uncle in the summer holiday. We went there by air, because we wanted to get there soon. I loved swimming in the sea. It made me feel cool.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Mary I didn't take a trip. I just went to my grandparents' house. There is a mountain behind their town, so I climbed the mountain with my brother. We took many photos on the mountain.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Lily I went to Beijing, too. But I didn't go to the Great Wall. I went to Tian' anmen Square. I never saw such great buildings like them before. Look, this is a photo I took there.

    As a mother of three young girls, Alison Cowan worried about her daughters growing up too fast. From asking for the latest toy to wanting to wear make-up, it seemed to Alison and her husband. Alan, that their children were never satisfied with what they had.

    The girls would ask for a toy, but would lose interest in it as soon as their friends had something new. Birthday parties were no longer just a few party games and blowing up balloons. All the parents seemed to invite professional performers and compete over who could give the most expensive party bag. At just seven years old, Amy and her friends were paying more and more attention to their appearance. It was a feeling that many parents would have.

    However, few would dream of leaving a comfortable family life and a comfortable house to move their family 3. 000 miles away to Africa in search of a simpler life. But last June, Alison and her husband, Alan, moved with their daughters to Kampala in Uganda, to show them a different lifestyle.

    For almost a year, the girls play in the red, dusty streets with local children and visit markets to buy fresh fish and vegetables for dinner. They have been able to play and use their imagination away from the distractions(分心) of the consumer-driven society. Now, instead of competing over who has won a computer game, the girls think about things like the frequent water shortages and electricity cuts in certain areas. "At times, we've been without water for five days. The girls always accept it, though. Their world before had been so small, but now they understand 93."
