Vocabulary Exercises:       Many people in my place now have more and more leisure time to enjoy their lives.  Young people may choose to become backpackers or take hiking trips.  They will go white water rafting in  a canoe,  for instance, or they will try to complete a journey by hitch-hiking.  Some go in for extreme kinds, like bunjee jumping or hang-gliding. Others prefer educational or spirituality tours,expeditions or eco-tourism. Some would go for ethnic tourism (learning local customs, traditions and culture). However, some  people prefer safe journeys.  They may often pick package vacations and before their journey, they will consult  with the travel agent.   And most of them tend to visit the same famous resorts.  Используя лексику урока и данный текст как образец, расскажите, как предпочитают отдыхать люди в вашем городе/регионе.

A Cruise on River Thames    We have planned to go on a river cruise on the River Thames when we go to London next summer.  We went to consult a travel agent and chose a seven-day package vacation in London for our trip. The travel agent gave us the itinerary, and offered us cheap cut-price tickets for flights to London.  Besides, in order to save money, instead of staying at the hotel, we would like to stay at the youth hostels. We are looking froward to the cruise to avoid the congestion on the land in London. 3. Types of Attractions. Переведите на русский. Что из нижеперечисленного популярно в вашем городе/регионе?
