To travel around the world is the dream of many adventurous people. But very few people can afford a global tour because hotels, food and airplane tickets are too expensive. Some people, however, have thought of some ways to realize their dreams.
Laura Cody and Tanbay Theune, a couple from Britain, decided to travel around the world. They have found a good way to pay for their trips. They look after pets for rich house owners. In exchange, they can stay in the houses for free. They have looked after horses, cows, cats, dogs and fish. In two years, the couple has been to Australia, Germany, Spain and Italy. They have stayed in big cities and small villages. The home owners are usually very generous and have given them food, wine and day trips.
Another person who tries to realize her travel dream is photographer Rhiannon Taylor. She travels around the world to visit, review and take photos of the best hotels. She shares the places she stays in and the food she eats on the Internet with tens of thousands of followers.

In America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort(度假勝地): brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides sure to appeal to kids. Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.
Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, to enjoy the happiness and excitement the beach offers.
The number one safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguard post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.
Never swim alone. Many drownings involved single swimmers. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.
Don’t fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean
beaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip (撕裂的)current, don’t fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip current are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.
1.When coming to Virginia Beach, children cannot enjoy the happiness of______.
A.walking on the road made of wood B.joining the nightspots
C.Riding a horse or a pumper car D.Skiing in the sea
2.Many people believe the best time to visit Virginia Beach may be____.
A.After autumn school term beginning
B.In the summer vacation
C.During the Christmas holiday
D.In the cold winter
3.From the passage we can know ____.
A.one in five persons swimming in the sea is drowned
B.if one with lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguard would be
C.some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards
D.some 20% drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards
4.The passage mainly tell us ____.
A.Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort
B.the happiness and excitement the beach offers
C.some safety tips when swimming in the sea

Research shows that pets help reduce stress.Do you know why and how?
1.
For those who love animals, it's virtually impossible to stay in a bad mood when a pair of loving puppy eyes meets yours, or when a super - soft cat rubs up against your head. Research supports the mood - enhancing benefits of pets.A recent study found that men with AIDS were less likely to suffer from depression if they owned a pet. According to a study, men with AIDS who had pets were only about 50 percent more likely to report symptoms of depression, compared to men with (AIDS who didn't have pets.)
2.
While ACE inhibiting drugs can generally reduce blood pressure, they aren't as effective on controlling spikes in blood pressure due to stress and tension.However, in a recent study, a group of patients who got dogs or cats were found to have lower blood pressure and haut rates than those having no pets.When they heard of the results, most of those in the non - pet group went out and got pets !
3.
Whether we walk our dogs because they need it, or are more likely to enjoy a walk when we have companionship, dog owners do spend more time walking than non - pet owners, at least if we live in an urban setting.Because exercise is good for stress management and overall health, owning a dog can be credited with increasing these benefits.
4.
When we're out walking, having a dog with us can make us more approachable and pave people a reason to stop and talk, thereby increasing the number of people we meet, giving us an pop corduroy to increase our net - work of friends and acquaintances, which also has great stress management benefits.
5.
Peels can be there for you in ways that people can't.They can offer love and companionship, and can also enjoy comfortable silence, keep secrets and are excellent companions.And they could be the best killer to loneliness.In fact, research shows that nursing home residents reported less loneliness when visited by dogs than when they spent time with other people ! All these benefits can reduce the amount of stress people experience in response to feelings of social isolation and lack of social support from people.
