Read the article. Then circle all the correct answers. Great Travel Gear  By Damian Rush The last post on TravelWithMe was all about staying safe on the Internet when you make travel plans and when you travel. Hopefully, you’ve followed my advice and verified the authenticity of your vacation rental or used secure websites when paying for a hotel online. Don’t forget to make sure those Wi-Fi hotspots are secure if you’re going to send personal information while vacationing or working out of town. Now that you’re ready to travel and know all about Internet safety, consider getting these must-have travel items for your trip. Travel Apps  There are so many good travel apps available that it doesn’t really matter which brand you choose. However, I recommend having the following types of apps on your phone. You should always have an app with a good map, as this allows you to find almost any place in any city. I also recommend an app to keep all your travel tickets in one place. There are many good apps that let you store your plane tickets safely, for example. The tickets are available even if a Wi-Fi connection isn’t. Of course, it’s always convenient to have your favorite social networking site on your phone. After all, if it weren’t for posts about your trip, how would your friends know what you were doing? Although I do caution against posting exactly where you are and for how long you’ll be away, especially if you’re concerned about someone breaking into your home while you’re gone. Headphones  Almost everyone listens to music or watches movies on their phones while they travel these days. Do your travel neighbors a favor, and get a pair a pair of decent headphones. No one likes to hear someone else’s noise through a pair of cheap earbuds. In addition, noise-canceling headphones will make your trip better because you won’t hear all that annoying background bus or airport noise. However, be careful. Josh Gordy, a frequent business traveler from San Francisco, says he missed a flight because of his noise-canceling headphones. He said, “I wouldn’t have missed the announcement about a gate change if I hadn’t been listening to music!” Remember to listen for announcements before a flight, bus, or train departure. But after you’re on your way, get out those headphones! Carry-on Luggage  I recommend buying a good carry-on bag that meets airline requirements. You want your bag to be able to fit in the overhead bin of an airplane, which means it will fit in most overhead bins on buses and trains as well. I feel it’s essential to get a bag that is light. If your bag is heavy when it’s empty, imagine how heavy it will be once you pack. In addition, I suggest a bag that is easy to carry, like a backpack or a small suitcase on wheels. Lastly, consider the items you almost always pack for a trip. Do you

need a place for a laptop or tablet in your carry-on bag? Do you want a small outside pocket for your phone and headphones? Neck Pillow  Dana Hudson, an adventure vacation traveler from Chicago, said, “If I hadn’t had my neck pillow with me on my flight to South Korea, I would have been miserable!” It took her almost 20 hours to get to her hotel in Seoul. Dana suggests that neck pillows are nice for short flights, too. They can be used on buses, planes, and trains, and they’re even good for passengers in cars. Many varieties are available, such as a pillow that wraps around your neck and lies on your shoulders, or a simpler, smaller one that rests just behind your neck. If space is an issue, buy a neck pillow that you can blow up with air. Comfortable Shoes  No matter where you go, you want to be comfortable, and one of the best ways to accomplish this is to keep your feet pain-free. If you are flying, you may want a pair of shoes that are easy to take on and off when you go through security screening. And think about what kind of shoes you need for the rest of your trip. Do you need professional shoes for meetings or hiking boots for outdoor adventures? No matter what kind of trip you have planned, there’s a shoe for it. It’s a good idea to wear new shoes a few times before your trip for maximum comfort. These are some of the many travel items that can make your trip more comfortable and hassle free.

WRITING

(5 marks)

Choose a topic from the following list. Write a four-paragraph essay that compares and contrasts the two things: Airplane travel and travel by train, Travel by train and travel by bus, Work travel and traveling for vacation

Some people prefer short, fast trips, but others prefer long trips with varied scenery and spectacular views. For the comfort of all people there are several ways of traveling, each with its own pros and cons. Firstly, we are going to take a look at airplane trips, if you choose to travel in an airplane you will have a fast and comfortable trip, with a spectacular view at the time of takeoff and landing but this view becomes monotonous when the plane flies higher than the clouds. On the other hand, if you choose train trips, you will have an amazing view throughout the trip but the trip will last many hours longer than if you travel by plane. Unfortunately train transportation is not very common in my country. In conclusion, each type of trip has its advantages and disadvantages, but each one allows you to reach your destination and give you a unique experience. Personally, I prefer train travel because I like to fully enjoy adventure.
