1、Some claim that people travel just for leisure.However,I don\'t agree with this point.To tell the truth,we can catch much leisure through traveling,but it isn\'t all.We can also learn a lot and get a lot when traveling.
For one thing,travel is a very good means of broadening a person\'s perspective.It makes you come into contact with different colors and go through peculiarities and ceremonies.Traveling much,you will not only enrich your knowledge and experiences,but also be aware of the vastne of nature.For another,travel can refresh you.You can go to Desneyland and experience what it\'s like to be \"A child again!\"You can visit the Grand Canyon and feel the magnificence of nature!You can taste the \"magical\"ice water on a glacier,which can help you become more beautiful and make you live longer.
The origin of the word \"travel\"is most likely lost to history.The term\"travel\"may originate from the Old French word travail.According to the Merriam Webster dictionary,the first known use if the word travel was in the 14th century.Reasons for traceling include recreation,tourism or vacationing,research travel for the gathering of information,for holiday to visit people,volunteer travel for chaity,migration to begin life somewhere else.Motives to travel include pleasure,relaxation,discovery and exploration,getting to know other cultures and taking personal time for building interpersonal relationships.Travel may be local,regional,domestic or international.As we can see,Travel was produced by human nature acticities.
Experience is a type of living knowleg.You\'ll be sure to experience many new things when traceling.You don\'t even need a tour guide if you long for more freedom.Just don\'t forget to bring your backpack!
2、Many people prefer to travel by air.This is because air travel has some advantages.In the fist place,airplane,the miracle created by man,is the fasted means of transport.It takes the least time for one to travel by air from one place to another.Secondly,traveling by air is convenient and comfortable.Friendly air hostees are affectionate and considerate.They look after paengers all the way to their destinations.Moreover,on long distance flights there are films and music for people to entertain themselves.
As a popular saying goes,\"Every coin has two sides.\"The same is true of air travel.It has some disadvantages,too.For one thing,air travel costs a great deal.The average Chinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air fares.So they prefer to take trains,which save a lot of money.For another,although paengers are aured of their safety,they are still worried about it during the journey because flying always involves more or le risk.
As far as I\'m concerned,the advantages mentioned above exceed the disadvantages.If I were given choice between traveling by air and train,I would certainly prefer the former.For me,time is money and it is the most important thing I have to tale into consideration whatever I do.
3、
When I was a child,I liked Venice,a place where many people think it is romatic.I always feel that Venice is a city full of mystery,which has been known as \"city of water\" .While in China,there is also a city of water,Wuzhen,which is located in the center of the six ancient towns south of Yangze River.Wuzhen displays its history through its ancient stone bridges,stone pathways and delicate wood carvings.The town also has a rich cultural background.
Both Venice and Wuzhen have many bridges.They not only make life convenient but also beautify the environment.However,the architectural styles of the bridge is different.Venice has a rich and diverse architectural style,the most famous of which is the Gothic style.It is the same used in bridges.The most famous bridge in Venice is the Bridge of Sighs.Indeed,the Bridge of Sighs is a beautiful sight,strcetching high above the canal.Italian Renaiance in style,the 11 meters wide bridge is made of white limestone and two windows with stone bars sit at the summit of the enclosed bridge.And it is decorated with sculptures depicting sad or angry faces.In Wuzhen,the traditional buildings are still preserved after paing so many years.In this town,with a dense network of rivers,people build their house along the river.Bridge is an indispensable factor in Jiangnan water village.It is said that in Wuzhen\'s history the amount of bridges has topped to more than 120,a truly\"hundred paces a bridge\".The \"Bridge within a Bridge\"is a scenic attraction created by two ancient bridges,the Tongji Bridge which croes the river from east to west and the Renji Bridge running from south to north that jions the former at one end.Either of two bridges can be seen through the arch of the other,hence the name.
The bridge in Venice reflects the western gopmetrical beauty while the bridge of Wuzhen reflects the characteristics of China Garden.This reflects the different thoughts of people and differen culture.Both Venice and Wuzhen are beautiful towns.If we say that Wuzhen is a ink wash painting,then Venice is a rich and gaudy colorwater painting.
4、Tourism in China has greatly expanded over the last few decades since the beginning of reform and opening.According to the WTO,in 2020,China will become the largest tourist country and among the largest for overseas travel.However,China\'s tourism is facing a lot of problems.It is still in a low level stage.For eaxanple,tourism in China is largely driven by ticket sales and \"pushed shopping\".What\'s worse,problems are more than these.Many people just go to the tourist attractions and don\'t for enjoyment,but just for photographing.In addition,all kinds of service is not comprehensive,various laws and regulations is not sound.The neglecting of environment pollution and damage of cutural heritage is another problem.
Neverthele our tourist services are not as developed as what they should have been.In keeping with international practice,our tourism should be improved in the following ways:
First,the query of service should be improved.The guides should be not only fluent in speaking a foreign language but also knowledgeable enough to provide ready information on whatever is being visited.Secondlly,the standard of food should be properly regulatated ill order to attact more tourists.Finally,transportation should be made more convenient so that tourists have easier acce to some famous but remote spots.
In shot,I believe if the above are perfectly done,tourism in China will see an immediate rise.
5、It is reported that tourism is considered the most suitable one mode of e-busine field.With the explosion of the Internet,e-busine has contributed a lot to tourism in China.Tourism in developing e-busine can not only reduce the cost,generate new profit growth point,but also can enhance the competitivene of enterprises.
Firstly,China\'s travel service sector has encountered revolutionary changes due to the e-busine.Busine from IT industry take advantage of e-busine,and become on-line agencies,such as the tourism division of 163.com,Byecity.com,Ctrip.com and eLong.com.These new entrants are often backed by advanced technology companies and competitive tourism organisations with funds from Chinese and foreign conglomerates.In China\'s marketpace,around 17.5% of Internet users search travel information on line.These individuals are actually lookers.During 2013,16.6% of Chinese eCustomers purchased tickits and 13.4%booked hotel rooms.
Secondly,as for me,e-busine has brought great convenience to my travel.Through e-busine ,I have a wider range of options.I can search the Internet to find the cheapest ticket and in this way I can save a considerable of money.It is really suitable for a student like me who don\'t have much money.What\'s more,I can order the hotel on the Internet saving lots of time.
Be in China at present,tourism e-busine is not perfect,but also in the proce of implementation also apeared many problems,but tourism e-busine is inevitable trend,its development will replace traditional tourism mode of operation.
