With the improvement of life standards, there are a {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
(grow) number of people traveling each year, {#blank#}2{#/blank#} is a good way to enjoy life.
Some people would like to take a package tour (跟团游), {#blank#}3{#/blank#} others would rather travel on their own. I prefer the
latter, because I feel that it's much more convenient and cheaper than taking a
package tour as I {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (do) before.
First of all, traveling on my own, I can arrange my time and
route {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (free). For example, when I get to someplace I like, I choose to
stay longer and don't have to think about others. Secondly, the schedule is
relatively tight joining package tours, and tourists can only stay very short
time in tourist attractions. {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is difficult to enjoy every landscape
carefully. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (three), in order to earn money, some travel agencies force
tourists {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (buy) things. In the meantime, traveling on my own is much
cheaper. Finally, the trip is designed to relax. However, many people say that
package tours are not to make them feel really {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (relax), but even more
tired.
On the whole, I feel like {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (travel) on my own, which
is more convenient.
