Discussion
Which place would you like to visit most?
Why? What will you have to do before your visit?
I would like to travel to Jing Shajiang River.
Because I like rafting. In one part of the river,
the water gets very rough. I think I can go
rafting. This sport is very exciting. I want to
challenge myself. At the same time, I can also
learn more about the history. Of course, I need
to get everything ready before I go there.
There our raft will be easy to get turned
upside down or sink. So I will take the special
clothing, a helmet and a life jacket.
