Train travel is becoming more popular.Amtrak,the US.national passenger rail company,reports that rider ship (公共交通工具的客流量) continues to grow each year.The passenger kilometres and numbers of passenger journeys are also increasing.There's every reason to believe train travel will continue to attract more passengers as fuel (燃料) prices climb.
   As you plan your vacation,you'll need to consider the advantages and disadvantages of train travel.Here are some things that you need to keep in mind.
   Train travel is fast and direct between major cities,especially in countries with high-speed trains.It's relatively easy to book a train trip.In many countries,you can book your tickets online or go to a train station to buy them.For single or couple travelers,travelling by train can be much less expensive than renting (租) a car,especially when you consider the cost of fuel and tolls (通行費).
   However,train schedules may not match your preferred travel times and days,so you might have to change your trip.This is especially true for long-distance train travel in the US.You may have to get off the train at midnight in a small station in an empty town in order to make a train connection.
   You need to bring your own food and drink onto the train as the food and drink served on trains can be expensive.Conditions on the train may be crowded,dirty or uncomfortable,especially at busy travel times or in developing countries.
   In the end,you'll need to do some research on train ticket prices,check schedules against your own plan and weigh the advantages and disadvantages of train travel against your personal preferences.

  • 1.How to Raise a Child Who Loves Reading Give your kids good books to read.
       By "good" I mean quality literature that makes kids think,not just entertains them.Some books can be fun.(1)
    Keep away from lightweight (內(nèi)容平庸的) books,because they may teach them to turn away from anything that makes their brains work too hard.A diet of lightweight books does not promote the patterns of thought that produce intellectual and personal excellence.
       (2)
    Kids love listening to their parents read,even as they get older,so don't stop reading aloud to your children just because they can read on their own.This is a perfect opportunity to challenge their abilities,vocabulary and worldviews by reading books.
       Remove distractions (使人分心的事物).
       With hand-held devices (3)
    Parents should have these devices powered down and phones put away,and ask them to pull out their books.Once kids finally get into their books,it creates the same quiet,peaceful atmosphere home.
       Talk about books with your kids.
       (4)
    Ask every family member,even the youngest,what they have read that day and what they've learned from it.This will arouse discussion and debate about the issues raised in the books.
       Give our kids paper books,not e-books.
       Studies have shown children keep information better when they read it on paper,as opposed to a screen,so avoid giving your child e-books to read.A paper book allows them to create a relationship with the book,to reread and to become familiar with a book's feel and smell.(5)


    A.Read aloud to your kids.
    B.Take chances to challenge your kids.
    C.That's where parental responsibility comes in.
    D.All these are very real parts of the reading experience.
    E.Parents should inform their kids of the harmfulness of hand-held devices.
    F.The dinner table is a great place to start reflective conversations about books.
