34、not travel for pleasure but to find new places where their herds could feed, or to escape from hostile neighbors, or to find more favorable climates. They traveled on foot. Their journeys were tong, tiring, and often dangerous. They protected themselves with simple weapons, such as wooden sticks or
35、stone clubs, and by lighting fires at night and, above all, by keeping together.Being intelligent and creative, they soon discovered easier ways of traveling. They rode on the backs of their domesticated animals; they hollowed Out tree trunks and, by using bits of wood as paddles, were able to trave
36、l across water.Later they traveled, not from necessity, but for the joy and excitement of seeing and experiencing new things, This is still the main reason why we travel today.Traveling, of course, has now become a highly organized business. There are cars and splendid roads, express trains, huge sh
37、ips and jet airliners, all of which provide us with comforts and security. This sounds wonderful. But there are difficulties.

So the day after her birthday, Mrs Smith went shopping. She queued for a bus, got on and sat
42、 down next to an old lady. After a while, she noticed that the old ladys handbag was open. Inside it she saw a wad of pound notes exactly like the one her husband had given her. So she quickly looked into her own bag the notes were gone! Mrs Smith was sure that the old lady who was sitting next to h
43、er had stolen them. She thought she would have to call the police; but, as she disliked making a fuss and getting people into trouble, she decide to take back the money from the old ladys handbag and say nothing more about it.

44、ully put her hand into the old ladys bag, took the notes and put them in her own bag.When she got home that evening, she showed her husband the beautiful hat she had bought.“With the money you gave me for my birthday, of course.“ She said proudly.“Oh?

47、 laws that prevent us from running risks with our lives? If so, then perhaps laws are needed prohibiting the sale of cigarettes and alcoholic drinks. Both products have been known to kill people. The hazards of drinking too much alcohol are as bad as or worse than the hazards of smoking too many cig
48、arettes. All right then, lets pass a law closing the liquor stores and the bars in this country. Lets put an end once and for all to the ruinous disease from which as many as 10 million Americans currently suffer alcoholism.But wait. Weve already tried that.
