Helen Pier B There are many ways of travelling in the modern world. Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport (機場) is usually far from the city. You must get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off(起飛) and it is often late. You can’t open the window. You can’t choose (選擇) the food. Planes are fast, but it takes hours to get out of the airport and into the city. I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe(安全的) . Railway stations(火車站) are usually in cities.

I also like cars. You can go traveling at anytime when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road. A friend of mine likes traveling by sea. He says it’ s nice to enjoy the beautiful view of the sea. But I feel sick when traveling by sea. ( ) 61.

In some ways, it’s because they are different listeners. When having classes, some of them listen carefully. We call them effective listeners. Some just daydream or talk to others. They are ineffective listeners. How are some listeners effective? First of all, they don’t care about some poor situations, like an unfortable seat or a personal problem. They say “No” to anything that will stop them from understanding and remembering. After leaving a class or meeting, they remember what the speakers said, not the room conditions or the speaker’ s accent (口音 ). Effective listeners always pay attention to(關(guān)注 ) the message itself. They try not to be influenced (被影響 ) by their own feelings or ideas.
