【题目】In 50 years of travelling, he has visited every country in the world except three. And everywhere he goes, he sends himself a postcard. He always chooses a postcard with beautiful scenery( 风景). Usually he writes just a short message to himself.

Colin McCorpuodale was born in London in 1938. On one of the walls in his room, you can see a large map of the world. There are hundreds of little red pins( 别针) stuck in it. "These pins mean a lot to me," says Mr McCorpuodale. "I follow the rule. I can stick one in only if I've been in a place for more than 24 hours."

Of course, Mr McCorpuodale has his favourite places. He describes New Zealand as "a wonderful country". About China, he says, "This is a special country in the world. I like her wonderful culture and friendly people.

Wherever he goes, Mr McCorpuodale takes with him a photo of his wife, a candle, a shirt with a secret pocket and a pen.

So why does he do so? For the postcards or the travels? Mr McCorpuodale laughs, "Neither. Only for the meaningful life. "
