Taking a cup of tea, reading a book and sunbathing were my most memorable and peaceful moments on my summer holiday． And to everyone’s surprise, I finished 12 books: the two series of Percy Jackson．
How? Why?

When the book ended, the happiness of reading washed over me, leaving me wanting more．
One book after another came and went, and those touching moments in them left unforgettable memories in my heart． I felt everything, even the goose bumps (鸡皮疙瘩) on my arms． My heart rose and fell like a roller coaster, with all the exciting moments that followed each other like heart beats．

Host: Welcome to today’s chat show! We’re excited to have Karen, a talented writer． here to share her writing journey with us． Hello, Karen． It’s a pleasure to meet you． When and how did you get into writing?
Karen: I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember, starting with letters and my diary． I wrote down my feelings almost every day． But I really became hooked when I became a reporter for my school newspaper when I was in the third grade． I also remember writing a play called The Silver Locket in the sixth grade．
Host: What kind of training do you need to be a writer?
Karen: Many writers say the best way to improve writing is by living． I totally agree with that． I think good writers also need hard work, creative talent, and a little luck too． Writers are natural readers． Reading what others have written helps you not only enjoy good writing but also understand different writing styles． If you’re serious about being a writer, it’s also important when you have the chance, to take writing courses．
Host: What gives you ideas?
Karen: I get ideas all the time when I’m driving to the store, in a meeting, watching TV, cooking, or even relaxing on the beach!
Host: Do you write all at once or in fragments (片段)?
Karen: It all depends on what I’m writing． If I’m writing a nonfiction article that requires a lot of research and interviews, I do the research first, taking notes along the way． I organize my notes and then I start writing． I pay more attention to content than sentence structure, how it reads, or how long the piece is running． Making sure it reads well, catches the readers’ attention, makes sense (言之有理), and is the right length will come later． I’ll solve that when I begin editing and rewriting． And, believe me, editing and rewriting are worth taking time!
Host: ▲ ?
Karen: I have several books in mind, both fiction and nonfiction, but the first one—a children’s picture book— is ready for publishing． I even entered it into a competition and it won a prize．
Host: …

Modern travellers enjoy safe, comfortable transportation from high-speed trains to planes． We also have lots of information to stay updated on our journey． But in history, travel was different． Let’s explore ancient China． What was travelling like back then?
Travel in control
Before the Song dynasty, the country strictly controlled the movement of common people． Commerce (商业) began to appear in the Song dynasty, and the growing wealth led to the rise of an early tourism industry．
However, this golden period ended． Zhu Yuanzhang, the ruler of the Ming dynasty, renewed (重新开始) strict travel control． Movement was still common if it was managed by the country． The government would send soldiers and craftsmen wherever they were needed, and everything was planned before．
After the Ming dynasty, the country allowed more freedom for people to travel on their own．
Danger on the road
Ancient travel was very dangerous． People worried about the many dangers they could face on their journeys．
For example, distances (距离) didn’t often stay the same over time—“Ten li” in one place might be different from “ten li” in another． This could be a big problem． Failing to understand the distance could leave travellers alone in faraway areas with no hotels around． This was very dangerous for single travellers．
Travel guides also warned readers about dangerous roads and areas to avoid． Theft and robbery were also common on the road． In short, it was very dangerous out there．
Ancient Travelogues(旅行日志)
We’re not short of travel records from ancient people． School textbooks often include famous articles like “Eight Records of Excursions in Yongzhou (《永州八记》),”“An Account of the Old Drunkard’s Pavilion (《醉翁亭记》),” and “Night Tour of Chengtian Temple (《记承天寺夜游》)．” All of them come from travels．
Writers paid more attention to sights and feelings instead of detailed travel travelogues． However, these records show their personal interests, giving us a clear look into ancient daily life．
Much like how we take holiday photos today, ancient people added drawings to their travelogues． In the Ming dynasty, Wang Shizhen, an officer, travelled from Taicang to Beijing． He brought a painter who made drawings for each stop． They created 30 to40 paintings that are still kept today． These drawings give us valuable knowledge．
36． When did the early tourism industry start?
A． Before the Song Dynasty． B． In the Song Dynasty．
C． In the Ming Dynasty． D． After the Ming Dynasty．
37． What result did Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang’s rules lead to?
A． Making travel plans was more popular．
B． Tourism industry was further developed．
C． People were allowed to travel by themselves．
D． Movement was strictly managed by the country．
38． What did travel guides advise ancient travellers to do?
A． To fight with thieves and robbers． B． To carry maps with clear pictures．
C． To avoid travelling with strangers． D． To stay away from dangerous roads．
39． How did ancient travellers record their journeys?
A． By hiring writers to record travels． B． By telling others sights and feelings．
C． By writing travelogues and drawing． D． By collecting drawings for each stop．
40． What’s the best title for the passage?
A． Travel in ancient China B． Works of ancient travel
C． Changes of travel styles D． Challenges of ancient travel
