3The next morning, the two girls arose early to take the train to Lake Louise, passing through the Canadian Rockies. Seen from the train window, the mountains and forests of Canada looked massive. When the train arrived at the station, they took a taxi to Lake Louise, where the blue water literally took their breath away with its exceptional beauty. They spent the night, and then took a coach bound north through the Canadian Rockies to Jasper. Looking at the beautiful scenery, they both agreed that it was the most awesome journey they had ever taken. In addition to seeing spectacular mountain peaks and forests, one highlight of their trip was being able to see many different creatures, including deer, mountain goats, and even a grizzly bear and an eagle.

Use discourse markers to show relationships
Discourse markers are more commonly known as “linking words”. They are used to show relationships between ideas. Such as
①to add something (e.g. also, besides, additionally)
②to show contrast (e.g. however, on the other hand)
③to explain a reason (e.g. because, since)
④to show a result (e.g. therefore, as a result)
Without discourse markers, the connections between sentences and paragraphs in a text would be less obvious.

Further thinking
What can travel bring to us
broaden one’s horizon/expand one’s range of knowledge
enrich/enlarge one’s life experience
build ones character
find what they really want in the heart
relax one’s mind
relieve one’s pressures of life and work
refresh oneself and build up one’s strength
be an escape from the boredom of one’s everyday life
widen one’s circle of friends
You can either travel or read,and either your body or soul must be on the way.
Post-reading
Q: What can travel bring to us
(Make a list of possible benefits.)
voice yourself
“It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”
读万卷书不如行万里路
在一段足够远的旅行中，你会遇到(内心的)自己。
