English Around the World

(by 5 minute English)

 

[1]   Have you ever had the desire to wander the world and see what was out there? While

some people prefer to stay in the comfort of their own home, others have been bitten by the

travel bug and can't wait to explore the world. Exotic places call to them. "Come visit me and I

will show you my mysteries," they say.

[5]     Every year millions of people pack their suitcases or put on backpacks and flock to visit

the seven continents of the world. They wander through the castles and museums of Europe,

and the cities and natural wonders of North and South America. Some visit the vast exotic

cultures of Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The great outback of Australia is a wonderland for

those who go there. And a few lucky people even make to the most mysterious continent on

[10] the earth- Antarctica.

     Why do people want to explore the world? It gives them a better perspective about the

earth and the people living on it. It opens their minds, it gives them a feeling of

accomplishment, and it makes them feel alive. So save some money, get your passport ready,

and see the world. It will change your life forever.

 

Mark a correct synonym for “forever” (line 14).
