I was very exciting when I boarded the flight for Taiwan. The plane flew for about four hours after it landed on the island. On arrival, we were greeted by local guide. We stayed in Taiwan for eight day. During our stay, we went boating in Riyuetan Pool, that is a beautiful lake. We visited Mountain Ali, where we went hiking. We also have a good time in Tailu Pavilion and Kending Park. That impressed us mostly was that the local people were very friendly. Wherever we went, they were given a warm welcome. Although our trip was very busy, but it was pleasant.

Shoopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. ____1.____. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman immediately produces it and the business of trying it on takes place at once. _____2.____.
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. 3. . She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look around”. 4. . She will try on any number of things. The most important thing in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. They are always on the look-out for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail(挂衣杆) to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a painful process for husbands, but obviously an enjoyable one for wives. 5. .
A. Her shopping is not often based on need.
B. Few men have patience with this treatment.
C. So most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
D. He knows what he wants and his goal is to find it and buy it.
E. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants.
F. She is “always open to persuasion”; indeed she even takes seriously what the saleswoman tells her.
G. Finally the deal is often completed in less than five minutes with hardly any chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.
Must-Read about Notting Hill Carnival(狂欢节)
Route
The carnival procession itself begins at 9am on both Sunday and Monday. It starts on Great Western Road, winding its way along Chepstow Road, then on to Westbourne Grove, and then down Ladbroke Grove. See our Notting Hill Carnival map for the full route.
While extra services will be in operation, no buses will enter the Carnival area from first thing Sunday morning until the first service on Tuesday morning. On both days bus services begin from Notting Hill Gate in the south and from Harrow Rd (close to Elgin Avenue) in the north.
Bike
Last year the nearest bike-parking stations – Chepstow Villas and Pembridge Road – were removed for Carnival, so don’t rely on being able to park your bike nearby this year.
Safety
Avoid carrying expensive items, such as jewellery and digital cameras. Take a bag with a secure zip to keep your more valuable possessions in and avoid putting your valuables in your back pocket.
Do tell police if you see an incident. Officers will be stationed throughout the Carnival area. Don’t try to walk against the flow of the crowd, as you won’t get far. Drink plenty of water on the day too, especially if the sun makes an appearance.
Children
Children’s Day on Sunday is recommended for families as the smaller crowds and kid-friendly floats(游行花车) create a fun atmosphere. Arrange meeting points in case you become separated. The smaller the buggy(婴儿车), the better. Ear defenders may be necessary for very young children.
