Weve been planning this vacation for months!”“Yeah, I dont feel like it. Well go some other time.”Over the coming weeks, I tried to get my friend to reconsider, but failed. Our trip to Australia was off. And none of my friends wanted to replace him. If I wanted to travel, it would have to be on my own.Its taught me that if I wait for others, Ill never go anywhere. But there are places I want to visit, people to see, experiences to have, and food to tryand only so much time to achieve it all. So I refuse to wait. I wont let others keep me from realizing my dreams. It can be scary travelling alone, especially then youve never done it before. But, to me, growing old without experiencing everything you want from life is more frightening.If youre been putting off a trip because youre waiting for someone to go withstop. Just go. Dont let others hold you back from your dreams. Trust me, along the way youll make plenty of friends. More than that, travelling alone gives you real freedom. You wake up and its just youwhat you want, where you want, when you want. In that freedom and great space of possibility, you meet yourself.Its sink or swim and you have to learn how to survivewho to trust, how to make friends, how to find your way around alone. Thats the greatest reward（奖赏） of travelling alone. Each time you go away, you learn to become a little more independent and confident.Travelling alone is not for everyone. Some people return home soon after starting off, some cry for weeks before accepting it, and others just accept it right away. But youll never learn that if you dont travel once by yourself. Whether a weekend away, a two-week vacation, or a trip around the world, try it at least once.20 .

In many countries, it happens on your 18th birthday, but in some parts of the world, you have to do something special to enter the world of adults. On the island of Papua New Guinea, the Niowra tribe lives near the Sepik River, which is full of crocodiles(鳄鱼). The people believe that crocodiles made the earth and its people. When it is time for teenage boys to become men, acrocodile ceremonytakes place.The boys are taken to a hut called the Crocodile Nest .The hut is full of crocodile teeth and skulls. The boys are told to think of their crocodilefathers and mothers.This helps them to be strong and brave during the ceremony. They stay in the hut for six weeks. As part of the ceremony: bamboo is used to make small cuts on their backs and chests. The Niowra say that if the boys think of their crocodile mothers and fathers, they dont feel the pain. The boys also play drums and even tell jokes during their time in the hut to take their minds off the pain. Amazingly, some boys sleep during the most painful parts of the ceremony!The Niowra believe that this ceremony makes the boys stronger and braver. After the ceremony, the boys will have the marks of the cuts on their backs and chests for the rest of their lives. The marks are symbols of the teeth of the crocodile. The boys are now crocodile men and can survive living in the dangerous forest. When the boys finally leave the crocodile hut, there is singing and dancing, and the new crocodile men are given adult responsibilities in the village.24 .

Even though it can fly, it cant fly through the open roof. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of 3 or 4 meters. Without space to run, he will not even try to fly, but will stay in his small jail(监牢) for the rest of his life.The ordinary bat that flies around at night cannot take off from the ground. If it is placed on the ground, all it can do is shuffle(穿梭) about helplessly. If it reaches a higher place, it will be able to throw itself into the air. Then it takes off quickly. But on flat ground, it will never fly.A bee dropped into a cup will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but keeps trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom.
