3、 the region for a few days or a few weeks,these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.Take a scenic hike.It s easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot.The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro.It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful s

4、cenery of the sea,architecture and vineyards(葡萄园).It takes about six hours to go across,with short breaks,but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.Eat seafood in a cone(锥形).Dessert lovers might think that Italian ice-cream is the best thing to be served in a cone but m

12、and James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.The beauty of reading books that were introduced to you as a child is that you are already familiar with the plot.As a result,you can work out some of the definitions of words with your prior knowledge of the story.At first,I used to read with the book in

13、one hand and a dictionary in the other,but this method did not work well for me.The method I would recommend is to read a chapter of your chosen children s book and at the end of that chapter,highlight the words you do not know and then look up the definitions.If you can wait a bit before you use a

19、o carry small or medium-sized packages.The battery-powered vehicle,which moves at a regular walking pace,has been programmed to avoid pedestrians,animals,and unexpected obstacles,such as garbage cans.Its powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.To accelerate S
