Ⅰ　阅读理解
A
When I decided to quit my job as a wedding photographer, I was in my late twenties, fresh from my divorce from Bob who had left me empty and confused. I decided to leave the US and travel. I had no savings, plus more than $5,000 in debt. What I did have were two sponsored tasks as a travel photographer—and with that along, I thought, it would be easy.

My first experience was a road trip from Toronto to Las Vegas, paid for by a car delivery service. Other trips followed and then I started a travel blog (博客). It was intended to be my calling card for assignment travel photography. Yet even with my blog and past experience, email after email I sent to publications, trying to get work, went unanswered. When they did get in touch, editors told me that I had no chance of making a career with travel photography. While I struggled to get on the path that I wanted, and as I expanded my blog to help get me there, I found myself wearing the hat of a full­time blogger.
Luckily, I got in at the right time. It was 2010, and the travel industry was just starting to turn its attention to bloggers. As I never could have predicted, my blogging—not my photography—did take me around the world successfully. At first, I thought it was for personal reasons, but I realized later that it was for free marketing for my blogging.
Within two years, I was being asked to speak at travel blogging conferences, which helped me to raise a network of friends around the world. Even more meaningful, however, was when I saw that my travels were also helping other people. My blog and social media followers saw that I chased my dreams and told me over and over again how they needed that kind of example, which was absent in their lives elsewhere.

Dear Emily，
Glad to hear from you. You have asked me for my advice on travelling in Yunnan. It's my great pleasure to give you some suggestions.
To begin with, I suggest that you fly directly to Lijiang Town, which is a beautiful town with an altitude of about 2,500 meters. Not only can you experience Naxi culture but also you can see different styles of outdoor bars. Besides, it would be a good idea if you pay a visit to the wonderful Shangri­La. It is filled with world­class sights and sceneries, which draws millions of tourists every year. Moreover, having a walk in the Yunnan Nationalities Villages is a good choice. You can get in touch with a variety of minority cultures of China.
I hope you will have a good time travelling. I am looking forward to hearing from you and can hardly wait to share your joy of the trip.
Yours，
Li Hua
