Introduction. 1.1 The relevance of the theme I am a student of school №11. In my future I am going to continue my studying at university. I would like to connect my life and my job with languages. And so I would like to become a tourism guide or translator. I have always been interested in travelling, other countries’ culture and history. I also have already visited four countries. I am sure, I have some things to share. Because of these reasons, I decided to make a project about travelling. I would like to learn more information about countries’ features, advantages and disadvantages. Our world is amazing and I would like (to try) to prove its beauty. I know that travelling has a lot of benefits for people. It improves our language skills, makes us more erudite and happy. But some people have another point of view. They consider that we can learn our world without leaving our home, via the Internet or even books. Their opinion also may be the case, but... Is it the same? 1.2 The advantages of the travel: 1. Meetings with different cultures. 2. It helps to learn and practise lots of languages. 3. It develops and widens our mind. 4. With its help we can make new friends. 5. Enjoying sites of culture and history. 1.3 Disadvantages of travelling: 1. Sometimes travels are expensive. 2. It can be dangerous in some countries. 3. It can be hard if you don’t now English at least. 2.Main part 2.1 Targets and goals of project 1. Make a research, which would help me to understand, why people enjoy travelling. Improve my English vocabulary. 2. Compare pluses and minuses of travelling. 3. Make a presentation of the project. 4. Make a film, which will show my own experience in travelling. 5. Make other teens interested in my project and travelling. 2.2 Social test To begin with, I decided to make a social test among students. I would like to know, what do they think about travelling. Their opinion also would help me to understand, if travelling has minuses too. They were asked three questions: 1. How many times a year do you travel? 2. Who do you prefer to travel with? 3. What is the main advantage of travelling? 4. Are there any disadvantages of travelling? 3 2.3 Results of my test 2.3.1. Result of the first question Result of the first question looks this way. We can see, that most of teens travel regularly, but not very often. 2.3.2.Result of the second question Speaking about second question, we can see, that half of respondents like to travel with friends. Almost tenth part of students like to travel alone. Other respondents get pleasure travelling with family. 4 2.3.3. Result of the third question So, what can I tell about answers third question? The main advantage of travelling for students is/are … 2.3.4 Result of the fourth question So, which disadvantages travelling has? 2.4 Meaning of travelling for me and my life As for me, the best way to break the monotony of our life and learn a lot about different places and cultures in the world is travelling. I think that our modern life is impossible without travelling. People get tired of their daily routine, they need to change the surroundings. So they go to a travel agency, buy tickets to some nice place, pack their suitcases and set off on a journey. Travelling has a great educational value for me because it is a chance to meet new people, visit museums and ancient sights, discover different ways of life, taste national cuisines and practice foreign languages. It makes me more appreciative of other cultures. The best way to study geography is to go to distant countries and cities. It is not a secret for anybody that travelling becomes more popular and more available day by day. In our modern world there are a lot of ways to explore different countries and many people just don’t can miss this opportunity. This way, I think that this theme is relevant nowadays. 5 3.My travel’s diary 3.1 Description of my travel Firstly, I bought a ticket for a plane. Many people think, that nothing can be compared with traveling by air, because it is the most comfortable, and, of course, the quickest way of moving. But I believe that there is no travel better than by ship. It's wonderful to feel the deck of the ship under the feet, to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing in the face, hear the cry of the seagulls. My trip took 10 days. I have visited three countries, five cities and saw lots of attractions. Our first stop was old port city in Italy. It is called Genova. Architecture in this city is magnificent. The main attraction is central square. There are a lot of monuments of culture and history there. Peace and quiet reign in this city. Everybody will get pleasure. The next step of our cruise was boating. Cabins on the boat were very comfortable. There were a lot of events for people of all ages on the boat such as theatre performances, night parties and listening live music. Also there were children’s rooms and round-the-clock food. The second stop was La Spezia, Italian city. We decided to go to the national park called Cinque Terra, which is located near La Spezia. Cinque Terra is Unesco World Heritage Site. This park is unusual and peaceful. We had good amusement there and really enjoyed beautifulness of five old villages and nature of the park. The next stop was Chivitaveccia. It is typical European city with excellent architecture and fantastic promenade. Also there are a big variety of souvenirs’ shops and café’s with tasty dishes. Food on boat was delicious too. There were fruit and vegetables, meet, pizza, sweets and variety of garnishes. The fourth stop was French city called Marseille. It was rainy and we had fun spending time at the boat. The fifth stop was sunny and warm Spanish city called Palma de Mallorka. The weather there even in November was very pleasant. This city is extremely atmospheric and has a big variety of cultural values. Finally, we got to our last stop – Barcelona. It is the largest industrial and commercial centre of Spain. More over, it is the centre of world tourism. I cannot express by words beautifulness of this city. It is magnificent and people there are full of kindness. The main site that I saw in this city is a church of holy family – Sagrada Familia. It has been building since second part of 19thcenture. This journey was amazing! I would like to repeat it again. 6 3.2 Film about my travel and photo gallery Now I want to introduce you photos that were taken while my travel . 7 8 9 5. Conclusion In conclusion I would share with you some insights, which I got while creating my project. From my point of view: 1. Travelling doesn’t have disadvantages at all. You will never practise your language skills as effectively, as you can do it while travelling. 2. It is a wonderful opportunity to develop our mind and find answers for lots of questions. 3. Young generation is really interested in travelling. More over, people of all ages can enjoy this activity. 4. Travelling makes us closer to each other. It also helps to make new contacts. 5. But not all people can afford to travel because of lack of money and financial problems. To tell the truth, travelling is an expensive pleasure for some people in our country! I think that I performed all tasks well. I had pleasure doing this work. 10
