Are you sorry for not traveling during the National Day ? If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. Why? Because there are too many people everywhere. In many places of interest in China, it’s too crowded to do anything.
Look at the picture. It was too crowded on the Great Wall on October 1st, 2012. You even couldn’t take photos for you or your friends. All what we could see were people. It was reported that there were about twenty people per meter on the Great Wall. My friends told me they could see nothing but many people on the Great Wall. “We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” he said. He showed us a photo on the Great Wall. In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
So some people give the advice that we should not have the gold week (黄金周) any more. But other people say no about this advice. What’s your idea of it? Are you sorry now for not traveling during the gold week? I love staying at home more than traveling next National Day.
【小题1】How did the writer feel about staying at home on National Day?

Liu Yun, 13, pretty and smart. She is a good student. But many students try to stay from her because Liu Yun’s mum has AIDS(爱滋病) and her father has died of AIDS. Luckily, Liu Yun didn’t get it.
AIDS means fear for most people. Nobody wants to play games with her. Even a teacher who used to like her turns his back on her now. The biggest problem is how other people look at her. She sometimes wants todrop out of schoolbecause she can no longer face others’ indifference(冷漠)。
It is said if a person has AIDS, it’s still safe to eat and play with him. So I think Liu Yun’s classmates and teachers are afraid of AIDS because they don’t know much about AIDS. And Liu Yun needs their love and understanding. Even a friendly smile means a lot to her.
