Appendix 1.

Read the text and complete the diagram. Choose the reasons why people travel.

Travelling had always been a popular hobby for some of the most adventurous people. The reason is of course the increasing transport facilities (расширение транспорта). This however is not the actual reason as to why people travel around the world to see exotic countries located far away from their homeland. Travelling of this sort is of course done to relax, enjoy and take a break from everything, including the weather. People often take a vacation to take a look at the other kinds of cultures and traditions around the world.

Sometimes if people feel down and want to cheer up or change their life they look for a new job, develop relationships or meet new people. Some of them travel to learn new languages. Relatives and close friends travel to different parts of the world in order to stay for a few days with people close to them.

Travel and enjoy yourselves!
