Recently, a campaign called "Great Names for Great Britain" asked the Chinese people to give Chinese names to British tourist landmarks. Some British tourist attractions already have a widely-accepted name in Chinese. Stonehenge is Ju Shi Zhen. Then there's Da Ben Zhong, the Big Ben. Sometimes it's also translated as the Big Silly Clock, as "Ben" in Chinese sounds like the word for "stupid" or "silly". Yet there are plenty of British attractions that don't have Chinese names, so the British national tourist agency VisitBritain is launching a contest to name the tourist attractions in Chinese. The agency has invited Chinese consumers to come up with the best names for 101 of Britain's most loved attractions, as well as lesser-known places around the country. They can make their suggestions through social media. One of the aims of this campaign is to attract Chinese travelers. VisitBritain believes that creating Chinese names for Britain's famous sites will promote engagement between the British and Chinese populations and encourage the Chinese people to choose Britain as a holiday destination.【缺少答案，请补充】
In today's program we will talk about tourism, but in a very special place: Antarctica. It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Yes, in Antarctica there are only research stations and few tourists. Not so few - about 74,000 tourists went there from October 2019 to April 2020. That many? Yes. By the way, do you know anything about the current conditions of the South Pole? I've read somewhere that the ice caps there are melting because of global warming. Yes, that's worrying. I'd like to visit Antarctica before it melts too much. And I want to see the penguins. They're amusing!【缺少答案，请补充】
Windy: Hello, Neil. In today's program we will talk about tourism, but in a very special place: Antarctica. It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Neil: Yes, in Antarctica there are only research stations and few tourists. Windy: Not so few - about 74,000 tourists went there from October 2019 to April 2020. Neil: That many? Windy: Yes. By the way, do you know anything about the current conditions of the South Pole? Neil: I've read somewhere that the ice caps there are melting because of global warming. Windy: Yes, that's worrying. Neil: I'd like to visit Antarctica before it melts too much. And I want to see the penguins. They're amusing! Windy: Yes, they are. But you are not allowed to get any nearer than five meters from Antarctic wildlife, and you cannot touch the penguins. Neil: Sure, I understand completely. I love traveling, but I wonder whether it's fair to allow tourists in Antarctica. It has such a sensitive environment. You know, all visitors leave a footprint. I wonder what we can do to preserve its environment. Windy: I just read an article by a news reporter who visited Antarctica with a tourist group. Neil: Oh? Were there any restrictions on tourists? Windy: She said that tourists had to clean their clothes before they left the ship to go on land. There was no eating or smoking on land; tourists were instructed to take nothing away, not even a bit of snow, except photographs, and leave nothing behind. Neil: Good for the environment. Windy: And it's said that carefully-controlled tourism is in fact not just OK but useful. Tourism creates a global community of people ready to support and fund its preservation. Neil: Sounds reasonable.【缺少答案，请补充】
Mark: Hi, Jane. How's it going? Jane: Pretty good. I've been thinking about our trip to Ireland all week. Mark: Me too. I'm excited about it. Jane: Shall we start planning for it? You probably have a list of things we need to plan, don't you? Mark: Yes. Jane: So, what's the first? Mark: Well, the first thing we need to do is book our tickets. Let's look online for the cheapest flights we can find. Jane: Sure. Mark: The second thing we need to do is book a hotel. Jane: Can we just wait until we get there to find something? Mark: No. Summer is a busy time to travel. If we wait until the last minute, all the hotels might be full. Jane: I guess you're right. Mark: I've found two travel websites about Ireland. Here, have a look. They both have sections about the hotels. Jane: Great! Mark: Why don't we read through the hotel sections and choose two hotels that we think are good and affordable? Jane: Sure. That's a good idea. Mark: Now, we also need to work out what we will do in Dublin. Jane: Wow! You want to plan everything. Mark: Well, we shouldn't get there and waste time trying to figure out what to do at that point. Jane: I know. I'm just kidding. Mark: The websites also have sections about attractions, and things to do. Let's read them and make a list of things we want to see. Jane: OK. Mark: So, we have flights, the hotel and things to do. Shall we meet again this week to talk about things and then make bookings? Jane: Sure. How about Wednesday? Mark: That works. Jane: OK, see you on Wednesday then. Mark: See you.【缺少答案，请补充】
If you know a millennial, then you know how important travel is to this generation.【缺少答案，请补充】
If you know a millennial, then you know how important travel is to this generation. Research has shown that today's 20-somethings are spending more on travel than other traditional investments. For millennials, life is all about the experiences. They seek adventures that are authentic and unforgettable through traveling. Millennials travel to experience new cultures. They aren't heading to popular tourist attractions to party anymore. Instead, their trips are all about authenticity, and cultural immersion is the best way to achieve that goal. To experience the local culture, they also rank sampling the local cuisine as an important part of their travels. Millennials travel to seek self-discovery. As many of them are still at the beginning of their professional life, a travel experience can open their eyes to what they really want. Traveling to different places may help them find themselves more capable than they ever thought possible, which can fuel their pursuit of dreams and change the course of their life. As digital natives, millennials use social media for travel inspiration. Seeing friends head off to distant destinations makes them want to book tickets, too. They often check social media to find the places they want to see and experience on their own. Smaller, more unique destinations are getting lots of likes and shares among them. Whether or not you are a millennial, you can learn from their traveling style: Hit the road and find unique adventures. The authenticity of your experiences will shape who you are and who you will become.【缺少答案，请补充】
My name is Cindy Cave, and I am a travel documentary director. I have always loved traveling since I was just a little kid. It makes me feel alive - that I'm growing, learning and expanding. It opens my mind and my heart to new ways of living and looking at the world. However, producing travel documentaries is very different from being a traveler. When you are making a travel documentary, everything is a lot more complicated because you not only have to raise the money, hire the crew, and make sure they do their jobs and have all the equipment you need, but have to work out all the travel, food and sleeping arrangements. Also, related experiences and resources really matter. Before producing my first travel documentary, I had worked in the movie business for more than 15 years. I have worked in both production and the camera department on major movie commercials and music videos all over the world. So when I decided to start producing travel documentaries, I already had lots of contacts and was able to gain lots of favors and get professionals to work for me. I have won some awards for my work over the years. But when people ask me about the most rewarding aspect of creating travel documentaries, I always say that the most rewarding part has been inspiring people to move out of their comfort zones, travel across the world, and learn not only about other cultures and people, but also about themselves. Inspiring people to broaden their horizons is extremely fulfilling for me.【缺少答案，请补充】
Volunteering to help people in need combined with traveling to faraway places is a new trend in the travel industry. It is called voluntourism. People travel to other countries, learn languages and other cultures, and gain new experiences. They also volunteer to help others who are not as well off as they are. Statistics show that voluntourism has been one of the fastest-growing areas of tourism. About 1.1 billion people around the world are volunteers in other countries. They work in orphanages, help build schools, assist in hospitals and do farming work in developing countries. Some of them establish lasting bonds with people far away. There are many reasons why people want to engage in voluntourism. Students see it as a gap year after school. Some people regard it as a cheap way of traveling; some simply want to take time out from a job and do something else. Still, there are those who want to challenge themselves and seek adventure.【缺少答案，请补充】
Kate: Hi Sam, you look very relaxed today. Sam: Oh, thanks Kate. I've just come back from a camping holiday, actually. Kate: A camping holiday? Most people come back from camping looking tired because of the lack of comfortable facilities! Sam: Ah well, actually I cheated. I went glamping. Kate: Glamping? Sam: Yes, glamping. I was staying in a tent, and it was already set up when we arrived at the campsite. We slept on proper beds and even had a kitchen with a cooker and a fridge. Kate: Wow! That sounds more glamorous than camping! Sam: Exactly! Glamorous camping. Put those two words together and you get ... Kate: Glamping. Now I see, "glamping" is a word made up of two words: "glamorous" and ... Sam: And "camping". It's glamorous because there are lots of facilities you don't normally get in a tent, such as proper beds and a kitchen. Kate: So, do people really use this word - glamping? Sam: Yes, it's quite a new word and a bit of a joke, but you can read about it and you do hear people use it because there are more and more companies offering glamping holidays. Kate: Hmm ... Sam: I know you like traveling a lot. Would you like to try glamping? Kate: I'm not sure about that. Is there room service? Sam: Room service? That's a step too far! I'm afraid that's too glamorous even for glamping! Kate: OK, how about a spa and massage room? Sam: A spa and massage room? Honestly, it's still camping. Kate: Ha-ha!
Traveling really makes people healthier. Traveling is not always a pleasant experience. Treats taken in small quantities benefit people. Chocolate has a positive effect on people's health.【缺少答案，请补充】
We know certain treats taken in small quantities, dark chocolate for example, can be good for our health. But could traveling really make us healthier, too? A U.S. travel association thinks so, and it's willing to spend a few million dollars to prove it. The association launched Travel Effect, a multi-year, multimillion-dollar campaign, to study and promote the benefits that travel brings to an individual's health, as well as the health of the community and the economy. With this research, the industry is hoping to convince consumers that some pleasurable experiences can be good for them. "We will now prove travel has a positive effect on health, relationships, business performance and the well-being of communities," said the President and CEO of the association in a press statement. Over the coming years, the campaign will work with academic institutions to conduct research on the beneficial effects of travel. The first research project will examine the effects travel has on relationships and its power to create lasting memories for children and adults. Subsequent studies will examine the impacts of business travel, as well as the effects of travel on private sector development, local communities and the economy. By doing this, the campaign hopes to change the way people view travel, and encourage them to do more of it.【缺少答案，请补充】
Since COVID-19 brought huge changes to our life, employees around the world have settled into the rhythm of remote work. Now, as companies try to decide the best way forward, it's clear that many employees don't want to give up this new way of working. A recent survey showed that 55% of U.S. workers want a mixture of home and office working. In the U.K., employers expect the percentage of regular home workers to double, from 18% pre-pandemic to 37% post-pandemic. In China, it is estimated that in 10 years' time, 60% of workers will work onsite and 40% remotely. At the moment, companies are managing in a variety of ways. Some have given employees permission to continue working remotely in the near future. Others have recalled staff to the workplace on different schedules. Still others are leaving it entirely up to individual workers to decide where to base themselves. Businesses around the world are also starting to think about the longer term, including alternative ways to structure work communication, work hours, as well as physical presence.【缺少答案，请补充】
The World Economic Forum conducted a survey about workplace well-being. The 10 survey questions were broken down into three sections: workplace environment, appreciation and emotion. The survey was conducted among 14,000 employees from 15 countries. On average, 71% of the employees are positive about their well-being at work. But this proportion varies across countries, cultures, national economic environments, job markets, and employee expectations. Indian employees are the happiest about going to work, with almost nine in ten feeling positive about their well-being. Then follow American countries like Mexico, the U.S., Chile and Brazil. Germany ranks sixth, with 74% of its employees reporting positives about workplace well-being. Japan's employees are least satisfied with their work. The survey further reveals that well-being at work strongly impacts motivation. To truly build a more productive workforce, employers should value their employees' well-being just as much as their technical skills.【缺少答案，请补充】
A U.S. company is paying its employees to sleep more. Staff will get $300 a year added to their salary if they sleep for at least seven hours at night. That works out at over an extra dollar for each night they sleep for more than seven hours. Staff can either record their sleep automatically using a wrist monitor, or manually record how long they have slept every night. The idea is to improve work performance. It is found that employees will work better if they sleep well. A workforce that is more awake and alert means the company will perform better. A number of studies warn that not sleeping enough affects our ability to do our job. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine said that the average U.S. worker loses 11.3 working days of productivity a year because of not getting enough sleep. Another study in Europe found that staff who slept for less than seven hours per night were far less productive than workers who had eight or more hours of sleep.【缺少答案，请补充】
Susan: Hi Tom. You look upset. What's the matter? Tom: Hi Susan. I feel like I'm at a crossroads in my career, and I don't know what to do. Susan: Why do you feel so, Tom? Tom: You see, I'm in the IT field, and my job pays well. But the issue is I'm not as happy as I used to be when doing this type of work. Susan: Do you mean you are considering changing? Tom: Well, maybe. But my fear is that if I switch careers now, I won't be making that much money. Susan: Actually your situation is far from unique. Many people feel trapped in jobs that they don't really like, but cannot quit because of financial reasons. Tom: If only there were jobs that we liked and were well-paid! But that doesn't seem easy. Susan: Of course not! Now it seems that you are faced with two options: an unpleasant job with higher pay or an enjoyable job with probably lower pay. Tom: Yes. What would you choose then? Susan: I'd rather have a low-paying job that I love. A rewarding career is more about personal fulfillment than making big money. It's very difficult to develop motivation and be creative in a job you dislike. Tom: That makes sense. You're more likely to succeed if you're doing a job you care about. Susan: And research shows that if you have a job that matches your personal values, you're much more likely to be happy than if you're doing something meaningless to you. Meaningful work is one of the keys to personal fulfillment. Tom: Yes, absolutely. It's worth sacrificing a high income to find a job that is meaningful and fulfilling.【缺少答案，请补充】
Molly: Hi. You're new in this building, aren't you? My name is Molly. Frank: Hi, Molly. Nice to meet you. My name is Frank. Molly: So, Frank, what do you do? Frank: I'm a computer technician, self-employed. Molly: Wow! That must be nice. Frank: It is. I have a lot of flexibility in terms of working hours and the work that I choose to do. I love not having to go into an office and sit at a desk all day. Molly: How many hours a week do you usually work? Frank: Usually around 20 hours a week. It depends on how much work I have. Molly: So you have a lot of free time. Frank: I do. What do you do, Molly? Molly: Well, I work full-time as a graphic designer. Frank: Do you like it? Molly: Yeah. I get to be very creative and design websites, print materials and other things like T-shirts. Frank: I've seen you walking around with your dog in the middle of the day. How can you afford to do that if you work full-time? Molly: I'm really lucky. My position is a full-time salaried one, but I get to work flexitime. Frank: What does that mean? Molly: It means that I can work flexible hours. I have to work 40 hours a week, but I can work anytime I want. Frank: That sounds really great! I've heard a lot of companies are starting to do that now. That's a great benefit for employees. Molly: It definitely is. Well, I've got to go for an online meeting. See you around. Frank: See you!【缺少答案，请补充】
Dr. John Graham and Professor Micheal Shier, who focused their research on social work, sent a survey out to 2,500 social workers in Alberta, Canada. Seven hundred people responded. From that group they took 13 people who scored highest and then through interviews followed closely their lives at home and at work. Here's what they found makes those people happy: 1. Flexible work schedules. The workers could provide "self-care" as they have the freedom to manage their personal lives. 2. A strong sense of engagement with their work because of support from their bosses and employers. 3. A feeling of being appreciated and valued, which often stems from their involvement in decision-making. 4. A high degree of freedom built into their jobs. They'd like to try new things and expand out of their comfort zone. 5. A pleasant physical workspace and good relationships with clients and colleagues. 6. A diversity of responsibilities, which might include training or teaching others, research, and policy development work. 7. A mentor to talk to about their lives, career decisions, and their day-to-day job. Graham and Shier are currently researching whether those factors make other types of workers happy as well. They expect that those factors would be important to all workers.【缺少答案，请补充】
The traditional ideas of work and leisure have blurred a lot in recent years. Businesses and individuals both re-evaluate the nine-to-five workdays. Instead of the daily grind at the office, work now invades leisure time and leisure time invades work. The phenomenon has been called "weisure time" by sociologist Dalton Conley. "Weisure time" often refers to free time spent doing work or work-related tasks. Because of increased responsibilities at work, many people work more than ever before. A lot of work relies on creativity and teamwork these days, which also means that employees should keep in touch. They may need to be in touch with colleagues and business associates while hanging out with their families. Nowadays, many people are not only busier, but also enjoy their jobs more than before. They don't mind if both of their lives mix. Computer and social networks are important in "weisure time". For one thing, social media enables people to stay connected during business hours. Talking with friends online stimulates a pleasurable response in people's brains, thus making the business days much more enjoyable. Social media also makes it more convenient for people to maintain connections with their co-workers during off time. Dalton Conley explains that at some point there could be a negative reaction because there is less time to relax. Although people see weisure time as a solution for now, they may not always be willing to mix their personal and professional lives.【缺少答案，请补充】
Sometimes your job can really be a grind, but quitting isn't a desirable option. So what can you do to become happier with your job? The findings from a recent study suggest that seeing your job as meaningful can make you happier at work. In the study, a team of researchers followed two groups of hospital cleaners to interview them and observe their work. The first group saw their jobs as merely a paycheck while the second group saw their jobs as something more meaningful. As it turned out, the first group described their job as boring and meaningless. But the other group described the same work as a calling, and the hours they spent at work as meaningful. This second group of hospital cleaners also did things differently from the first group. They had more interactions with nurses, patients and visitors, taking on their responsibilities to make everyone they came into contact with feel better. Generally, they saw their work in its broader context. They were not only cleaning the rooms and removing the trash, but contributing to the health of patients and the smooth functioning of the hospital. Cleaning the floors in a hospital may not be anyone's dream job. Emptying trash cans in patients' rooms doesn't feel special or important. But the research shows that if you see your work in a larger sense, you will be able to get more meaning out of it and achieve a stronger sense of fulfillment from it.【缺少答案，请补充】
China has built a "Mars Camp" in the town of Lenghu in Qinghai Province. The camp has created environmental conditions like those on Mars, as part of China's preparation for Mars exploration. Lenghu is known as China's "Mars Camp" due to its strange desert landscape that looks like the surface of Mars. The red rock area of the Qaidam Basin in western Qinghai has been named "the most Martian place on Earth". Experts claim that the landscape, rocks, sand, and even the temperatures there are similar to those on Mars. The camp was launched with a base designed for space enthusiasts and professionals. The aim is to provide a better understanding of Mars as visitors experience an environment similar to that on Mars. Covering 53,333 square meters, the "Mars Camp" has a tourist center, a Mars community, a simulation base, and other facilities. The camp was welcomed by schools and other Chinese education institutions. A number of university students have volunteered to serve as assistant teachers and support crew at the camp.【缺少答案，请补充】
