People travel for a variety of reasons. It may be for pleasure or it may be for business. It may be to visit family or it may be to pay respects to their deceased ancestors.(祖先) But most often we think of travel as something exciting, something that we like doing, for it is really a good way to see a new place, learn about a new culture, and experience many new things.
Traveling has a long history; ever since nomads(游牧民) realized
that living under certain climatic conditions meant they would have a better means to feed their families. In such cases, they thought there was a need to move to those better conditions areas. Until now, nomadic lifestyles exist as they did centuries ago.
Today people still move from poorer regions of their countries to more developed parts. They hope to find better jobs and live a better life. In a word, people travel to improve the conditions of their lives.
Besides that, people travel for enjoyment purposes. They want to get away from their busy lifestyles. So they travel to quiet environments or distant places to enjoy the comfort that allows them to relax. There is also an emotional(情感的) reason to travel. For example, people travel to reunite(团聚) with family or friends from distant places, or to meet their lovers.

C
Forty years ago, I was in Grade One. One day, I was asked to go to the principal's office (校长办公室). I was rather nervous. When I pushed
the heavy door open, I found my parents were sitting in the office, too. My father walked to me, with some of my drawings in his hand. “Why do you only use a black crayon (蜡笔) when you draw?” he asked.
I said nothing. “Show me to your desk.” said my father. So we returned to my classroom. My father pulled out my crayon box. There was only one black crayon in it. “Where are the rest of your crayons?”
I quickly explained that I'd given all the other crayons to my friends.
I shared my things with others as my parents had taught me.
Then I looked at my father, then at the principal---both their faces were red. Years later, I learned that my father's face was red because of anger and the principal was red because he was embarrassed. When the principal saw all my pictures, he thought I had a deep emotional problem. So he had called my parents in to discuss “my problem”.
In fact, I was too shy to ask for my “shared” crayons back. I didn't stand up for myself! That night, my father told me about the difference between sharing and giving. He also gave me a new box of crayons. He said, “Th ese crayons are for you. I don't want you to share or give these crayons to anyone else.”
