Backpacking travel and Tour travel trip

People go traveling to release their tension and to have wonderful time with friends. However, the ways people go traveling are various. The two that people mostly think of are backpacking travel and tour travel trip. Backpacking travel and tour travel trip have not only some differences but also several similar aspects.
Firstly, take the expenses for example; compared to backpacking travel, tour travel trip takes fewer expenses because it is more predictable. However, one must plans every detail very carefully so that he or she not spending too much traveling budget during backpacking. Another difference is that one can always does a lot more sights while backpacking; the tour agents arrange everything for one. That is to say, one has less autonomy due to the discipline. It is totally ones own decision about where to stay, how long to stay and what to do next in a journey.
It is likely that one tends to make himself more independent by traveling around the world or just simply wants to have fun. This makes the two ways of going traveling the same. No matter one goes by backpacking or tour travel, his purpose is the similarity of the two ways of traveling.
Well, both of them sounds good for me. I have not really go traveling to somewhere; so I guess it is time to step out and have a great adventure.

Mid-term Exam rated by John

Mid-term Exam
Many people enjoy reading in their leisure time. However, where do they go to purchase the books they are interested in? Nowadays, more and more people use the source of Internet Bookstores to choose or read all kinds of books. In that case, they will not have to leave home but enjoy the happiness of reading. Another way to purchase books is to go to a book fair. There are also many kinds of books to choose from. Moreover, it will be great that you spend your time with your friends and have a cup of coffee in a late afternoon. By the way, you may get discounts in a book fair. Why not just invite your friends and go out for one.
From so many different types of books, I like novels the most. It does not really matter what the novel is about. Because different kinds of novels bring you different imagination. Furthermore, novels can easily bring us to the world of fantasy. However, it is always good to choose one we can really learn something from. Whenever you feel bored, you may read a novel to kill time. To make a conclusion, let’s go out or just stay at home to have fun in reading.

Exercise 2

The “battle of the sexes” started with Adam and Eve. Probably, it will continue forever. Indeed, the opinion that men are superior to women has long been accepted in many cultures. However, the feminist movement is trying to change this view. In addition, feminists claim that boys and girls are exactly equal at birth but become unequal because of the way they are treated by society. Therefore, feminists believe education has contributed to the gender inequality. On the other hand, recent research contradicts the view that males and females are innately alike.

Test 1 marked by John

In the recent years, more and more people are becoming vegetarians. The reason for this situation is that the food we eat is salty and oily. Vegetarians believe that having only vegetables would make their body healthier and stronger. On the other hand, they think having vegetables is good for the earth and animals. They believe having meat is to kill lives.
In my opinion, having only nutrition from vegetables is not enough. We might get sick easily because of not having efficient nutrition from animals. We need to have meat to support our body energy. We can save the earth by using environmental friendly products or something like that. Killing animals does not do harm to the mother earth. It is how nature works.

Exercise 1

1. People who choose vegetarianism may think that eating only vegetables is more healthy.

2. It is likely that same-sex marriage not be legalized because this might make impact on and mislead teenagers who are sexually confused.

3.One of the possibilities that people choose tattoos is that they think tattoos make them become cool. They may also regard tattoos as fashionable marks.

Journal 1

It has been three weeks since we studied here in Chaoyang. We have met a lot of new friends; learned many new things. There have been also many extracurricular activities for us to participate in.
One of the most popular clubs is Popular Music club. We can not only make friends from different departments but also learn how to play instruments. Another welcome club is Dancing club. We do not really have time to do exercise. However, by joining Dancing club we can at the same time have fun with friends and keep fit. As for me, I would like to participate in a club which provides us chances to interact with kids. I feel relaxed and happy when I play with children. And it will be my pleasure to serve the community kindergarten or something like that.
Anyway, I believe with so many choices of clubs, the next four years will be full of fun and be colorful.

How to improve English writing skills

English writing skills are essential to be cultivated for people nowadays. In the working world today, we should have some abilities that others don't have.
In our leisure time, it is possible for us to keep English journals. Not only can we take down our mood and memories but also form the habit of practicing English writing skill. On the other hand, we can also read the English newspaper or magzines to improve the sense of the structure of sentences.
Hopefully, by keeping the habits, I believe we all can make progress of English writing skills in the near future.
