Many people dream of going on a great travel adventure. Most of us keep dreaming; others make it happen.
Gregg Beakney's dream was to travel around the Americas from top to bottom. He got the idea after he finished a 1, 600-kilometer bike ride. Gregg's friend, Brooks Allen, was also a cyclist. The two friends talked and set their goal: they would travel from Alaska to Argentina by bike. To pay for the journey, Gregg and Brooks worked and saved money for years. Once they were on the road, they often camped outdoors or stayed in hotels. In many places, along their route(路线), local people opened their homes to the two friends and gave them food.
During their trip, Gregg and Brooks cycled through deserts, rainforests(热带雨林)and mountains. They visited modern cities and explored ancient ruins(遗迹), such as Tikal in Guatemala(危地马拉). In many places, they met other cyclists from all over the world. In May 2007, they traveled twelve countries in two years, and over 30, 500 km(19, 000 miles). Later, Gregg finally reached Ushuaia, Argentina, at the top of South America. Gregg and Brooks kept a record of their adventures in an online blog. The trip taught both men a lot about travelling.
Here is some of Gregg's advice:
Travel light.
The less baggage you have, the less you'll worry about.
Be flexible(灵活的).
Don't plan everything. Then you'll be more relaxed and happier, even when there are challenges along the way.
Be polite.
A traveller told Gregg, “Always remember that nobody wants to fight or cheat a nice guy”.

Lots of people love chocolate. Do you know how to make it? What does a chocolate factory look like? My class had a field trip to a chocolate factory in Toronto.
We visited an old building in ten groups. In the beginning, we put on some special clothes to make sure that we couldn’t dirty the workplace. After preparation(准备), we went to the second floor and walked into the chocolate-making place. The floor was filled with different kinds of machines. Each machine has a different job. There are only two people working on the floor, because machines do most of the work.
In the next room, we learned about the history of chocolate making. There was a picture of the factory 100 years ago. They had more than 1,000 people working there. The factory is very different now. How greatly the technology(技术) is changing our life!
Later, we saw how machines made chocolate. We got a cocoa bean(可可豆), some powdered(粉末的) chocolate and a final chocolate. I opened the cocoa bean and tasted it. It doesn’t taste sweet at all, and it’s like dark chocolate. The best cocoa beans come from South America and Africa. Farmers dry them in the sun. Next, workers cook the beans at a high temperature. Machines took the shells(果壳) off the beans and made the beans into chocolate liquor which looks like water. Then, they put chocolate liquor and sugar together to make dark chocolate. If adding milk, they made milk chocolate. The machine made them smooth like silk.
Finally, we bought some chocolate at a shop in the factory. It was at a very low price. This field trip taught me how important technology is and I also leant a lot of knowledge about chocolate.
1.Why did the writer’s class visit the chocolate factory?
A.Because they were interested in the amazing technology.
B.Because they could get some chocolate at a low price there.
C.Because they wanted to learn something new about chocolate.
2.Where do the best cocoa beans come from?
A.North America. B.Australia. C.Africa.
3.What makes the writer think “How greatly technology is changing our life”?
A.The whole floor only has two machines working.
B.Machines are doing most of the work in this factory.
C.People are making more and more delicious chocolate.
4.The writer thought the field trip was________ .
A.tiring B.unforgettable C.meaningless
5.Which is the RIGHT order about how to make chocolate?
①Cook the beans at a high temperature.
②Dry the cocoa beans in the sun.
③Put chocolate liquor and sugar together.
④ Take the shells off the beans, and made the beans into chocolate liquor.
