Top lists are lecturing people on everything from “100 places to visit” to “100 books to read ”.
Aren't you just tired of being told what to do with your time?
Now you have a list to end all lists!
Take a look at the following two examples from the list of “101 things not to do”:
Swim with Dolphins(海豚)?
Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming and pushing around them in the water. Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded with tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers(螺旋槳).
Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening their mouths.
Go to See the Mona Lisa?
There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的)smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong, after all. But they can be quite annoying, standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds at most.
If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she’d be laughing.
So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit www.not2dobeforeidie.co.uk and buy the book at a 20% discount.

     There's no need to say it, but there are really more than a few benefits to educational tours. From the
word itself, an educational tour is something done to gain knowledge while traveling and touring to some
place. It creates opportunities for people to think out of the box and see things and places that aren't
usually seen in their normal environment.
     Educational trips aren't always those that cover far distances. As already said, it is done to gain
knowledge and you wouldn't need to go very far to have it. Sometimes, an educational trip could be in
your hometown.
     Historic places and museums are always on top of the lists of the places to go in an educational tour.
Educational tours like these would make you know your country better. Your country's history is rich and
it is the reason why you came to be. But remember that the history of other states, counties and countries
are as important as your own.
     When you go on a trip to another country, it is advised that you learn their culture first. Different
cultures have different understanding and perspective of different acts, and it could be dangerous or
offending if you cannot understand a culture.
     When you go on an educational tour, it is likely that you would have the opportunity to socialize with
other people. Students are encouraged to talk to locals and natives and learn from them, because it is
with understanding that students gain knowledge. When students talk with local people, they are gaining
insights to their life and their culture. It is said that when in Rome, act and think as the Romans do, and
this is a valuable skill that not all people could do.
     There are millions of people who want to travel, and an educational tour is the perfect time to do so.
Traveling opens new doors and opportunities; it always makes you want to learn more. Cultures are
many and widely different, and it is a very valuable talent to understand the people of different cultures.
     Traveling with groups of other students is safer than traveling alone, and bulk travels like those could
also be helpful on the budget. Group of friends could stay at one place and get discounts on the place
that you wouldn't get if you are traveling alone. Traveling is fun and more budget-friendly when with other
people on an educational tour.
     Travel abroad for a month. Try and see if you wouldn't miss your own country. Traveling would let
you see your own country in a different way. The benefits of an educational tour are all important, but
this one creates patriotism in a person.
     A school isn't a place where they teach you to find the answers; it is a place where one teaches you to
find the questions and learn the answers for yourself. Educational tours are valuable this way. They teach
you that you are not the only one seeking for questions and that there are other people who are willing to
help you on your way too.

1.What's educational tours according to the passage?

A. Something done to gain knowledge while traveling.
B. Something done to know more about one's own country while traveling.

2.What are on the top lists of the places to go to in an educational tour?

A. schools and churches  
B. government buildings  
C. places of amusement

A. Educational trips always cover long distances.
B. When on educational trips, you seldom have the chance to talk with other people.
