Modern life is impossible without travelling

1.

2.

Modern life is impossible without
travelling. Thousands of people travel every
day either on business or for pleasure. They
can travel by air, by train, by sea or by
road.

3.

Of course, travelling by
air is the fastest and
the most convenient
way, but it is the most
expensive too.

4.

5.

Travelling by train is slower than by air,
but it has its advantages. You can see
much more interesting places of the
country you are travelling through.

6.

Modern trains have very comfortable
seats. There are also sleeping cars and
dining cars which make even the longest
journey enjoyable. Speed, comfort and
safety are the main advantages of trains
and planes. That is why many people
prefer them to all other means.

7.

Travelling by sea is popular mostly for
pleasure trips. On board large ships
and small river boats people can visit
foreign countries and different places
of interest within their own country.

8.

It is very pleasant to see the rise
and fall of the waves, to feel the
fresh sea wind and hear the cry of
the seagulls. Trips on the Volga,
the Dnieper, the Yenisei, the Black
Sea are very popular today.

9.

Many people like to travel by car. It is
interesting too, because you can stop when
and where you like, you do not have to buy
tickets or carry your suitcases.

10.

A very popular means of travelling is hiking.
It is travelling on foot. Walking tours are very
interesting. Hitch-hiking is a very popular
means of travelling among young people. But
it is not so popular in our country as abroad.

11.

The Black Sea is one of the most
wonderful places which attracts
holiday-makers all over the world.
There are many rest-homes,
sanatoriums there.

12.

But it is also possible to rent a room
or a furnished house for a couple of
weeks there. Sometimes we place
ourselves in a tent on the sea shore
enjoying fresh air and the sun all day
long.

13.

As a rule I make new friends there. In the
daytime we play volleyball, tennis, swim in
the warm water of the sea and sunbathe. In
the evening I like to sit on the beach
watching the sea and enjoying the sunset.
