Modern life is impossible without traveling. The fastest way to travel is by air. With a modern plane you can travel in one day to places which took a month or more one hundred years ago. Traveling by train is slower than by air, but it has its advantages. You can see the country you are traveling in. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable. Some people prefer to travel by sea when it is possible. There are large liners and river boats with which you can visit many other countries and different places. Traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday. Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty miles a day, just as you like .You can stop wherever you wish: where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or a hotel to spend the night. That is why traveling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are traveling on business. |

As the capital of Germany, Berlin is a city changing constantly-and especially so over the past 20 years, during which its eastern and western sides have been reunited after the long period of division (分裂). Berlin impresses visitors with a dynamic cultural identity with green spaces, flowing rivers and canals; it is a city full of artistic atmosphere and youthful vitality (活力). Berlin offers excellent food at reasonable prices, bars and cafes where breakfast can be served until late into the afternoon. As people here demonstrated perfectly when the Wall came down 20 years ago, Berlin is also a city that knows how to party. British Airways (0844 493 0787; www. ba. com), has five flights a day from Heathrow to Berlin. The Grand Hyatt (0049 30 2553 1234; www. berlin, grand. hyatt. com) on the Marlene Dietrich Platz in the glitzy new Potsdamer Platz, is a great place to get a sense of this fastmoving city. Sixty years ago, this spot was Berlin"s answer to Piccadilly Circus; 20 years ago it was a forbidden piece of noman"s land. Now it is a buzzing commercial center with restaurants, bars and cinemas. The Grand Hyatt is modern, graceful and arty. It has a bar with more than 200 kinds of whisky and a swimming pool with views on to Berlin Philharmonic (交响乐团). Rooms from 220 euros. Too modern? Traditionalists should head for the Adlon (0049 302 2610; www. hoteladlon. de; doubles from 220 euros, excluding breakfast), a stone"s throw from the Brandenburg Gate. Too expensive? The Circus Hotel (www. circusberlin. de) in Berlin Mitte has doubles from 68 euros a night and a programme of Berlin Wallrelated tours. Further information...

Many people all over the world speak English as their second language and it is not too much to say that it has become an international language. Studying English can make life fun.
