Terry's Travel Advice Our travel expert, Terry Tripper, helps to give advice to some travelers in need. | |
·A woman fell down in front of us during our trip. While we were helping her, someone stole(偷窃) our money! If we weren't so nice, we would still have our money! —MARGARET, BOSTON | |
Terry says:I am always willing to help others, too. But if there is a common(骚动), I keep my money in a safe place. And remember, sometimes the person instigating the common is working together with the thief(小偷)! | |
·I want to share a tip my friend gave me. If you' re worried about losing your passport(护照), don't carry it around with you. Just keep it in your hotel room. —SERGIO, RIO DE JANEIRO | |
Terry says: Sorry, your friend was not right. Keep your passport with you at all times. If someone sneaks(偷偷地走) into your room, you will probably still try to get home! | |
· Help!I didn't plan well before the trip, and now I'm in London in a busy season, and the only hotel rooms we can find are too expensive. —KIM, VANCOUVER | |
Terry says: Try a travel website. And in the future, plan before you go. If you do some preparations at home, you will not have such a bad vacation now. |
Man has invented four kinds of satellites(人造卫星).
The first kind of satellites studies the geography of the earth. They are used to make maps. They also help countries to see where they may find oil or gold. |
The second kind of satellites is used to guide ships and planes. A ship or a plane can send a message to the satellite, and the satellite can find out where the ship or the plane is. |
The third kind studies the weather. These satellites watch clouds and strong winds moving across the earth. They warn countries to make preparations when very bad weather is coming. |
The last kind is used for communications(通信). Telephone calls between countries can be sent. by these satellites. Some can carry hundreds of calls at the same time. The call is sent to the satellite, then the satellite' sends it to a station in the country and this country is being phoned. These satellites also carry pictures; they can receive and send about eight programmes at a time. |
