Studies have shown that books in the hands of children have a meaningful influence on improving literacy (识字). Little Free Library spreads the idea that literacy is of great importance and pushes people to learn and grow in their own literacy.

I just live in such a world where books, and the knowledge that comes with them, are highly valued.” Catherine, an American woman, said, “I’ve even received a note of thanks from a gentleman named Esteban. He was especially thankful to have a “friend” on a cold night: ‘Thank you for this wonderful gift of a book. It’s an excellent friend on this cold and lonely night. I’ll return one in its place as soon as I can!’”

As the saying goes, “Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles”. In modern society, travelling is a very common thing. Almost everyone can go on a trip at any time as long as they want to. In fact, centuries ago, some famous people already travelled around China and they got a lot from exploration (探险).

Xu Xiake, a geographer and writer in Ming dynasty, spent more than thirty years on the road four hundred years ago. With his mother’s encouragement, Xu Xiake travelled around China. He met with many difficulties on the road. But he never stopped travelling and writing.
Xu Xiake was on the road all his life, and his travel notes covered as much as his knowledge. His 600,000- word travel notes finally came out in 1776, about 135 years after his death. China Tourism Day is set on May 19th, the date when he started The Travels of Xu Xiake.

They reached Shangdu in Inner Mongolia in 1275. Kublai Khan gave them a warm welcome there and took them to Dadu.
Macro Polo’s hard journey created one of the world’s first best sellers The Travels of Macro Polo. Medieval (中世纪的) readers fell in love with Polo’s wonderful descriptions of faraway lands and got to know China and Middle Asia.

【50题详解】

【答案】例文
There is no denying that it is important for us to make a reasonable choice in life. I am a volleyball fan so I choose to join the school volleyball club, which is beneficial to my growth.
In my childhood, I fell in love with volleyball. Then when I was in Grade 8, I was eager to be a member of the school volleyball club. However, my parents wanted me to focus time and energy on schoolwork. I had a long talk with them calmly. After that, I trained hard with persistence in the club and learned what the true meaning of the teamwork was. Meanwhile, I reviewed my schoolwork as long as I finished training. To my joy, I got a satisfying result in the test. All this showed that my choice was right.
Needless to say, no matter what the choice is, if it is reasonable, just make it to follow your heart. Only in this way can it bring out the best in you.
