Question: What is the best way to travel from London to Amsterdam
I am planning to travel from London to Amsterdam. How long does the journey take and what is the best way to travel Could you please tell me about the trains or ships to get there The more information, the better. Thanks!
Best answer: There are four ways to travel.
A journey by train is more relaxing than by coach, but a lot more expensive. When you go by train, buy your ticket a long time before you travel. It is usually cheaper.
You can go by car and by ship across the North Sea. This is the most comfortable way to travel but also the most expensive. Book your ticket before you book your hotel. Remember that parking in Amsterdam is very expensive, so stay outside the city centre and travel in by bus or by train.
The third choice is by coach! This is usually the cheapest, but in summer, the coaches sometimes get crowded! And it takes you about twelve hours to get there. However, it will not cost as much as going by train.
Finally, you can fly. It is the fastest and the second cheapest, but you may have to wait for hours at the airport because of bad weather.
Well, I hope this helps! Have a great trip!

Hello, everyone! Thank you very much for coming to this concert. I hope you have enjoyed the performance. As you may know, all the performers have given their time to help us.
This concert is to raise money for children in Africa. Every day, hundreds of children in Africa die because they don’t have enough to eat. There are two reasons. First, there is no work for the children’s parents. Second, the governments in many African countries do not have the money to help the poor.
Most African countries are poor. The land is not good for growing food and the weather is also bad for farming. The Feed Africa Fund spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like you—kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.
Every dollar you give this evening will go to the Feed Africa Fund. Just one dollar can buy enough food to feed a family of four for three days. Think about it: only one dollar can feed four people for three days.
How much do you spend on food every day Ten dollars Twenty dollars I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.
Please be kind and generous! Give your family with a helping hand. Your money can make a difference in others’ life and yours. Thank you!

Question: What is the best way to travel from London to Amsterdam
I am planning to travel from London to Amsterdam. How long does the journey take and what is the best way to travel Could you please tell me about the trains or ships to get there The more information, the better. Thanks!
Best answer: There are four ways to travel.
A journey by train is more relaxing than by coach, but a lot more expensive. When you go by train, buy your ticket a long time before you travel. It is usually cheaper.
You can go by car and by ship across the North Sea. This is the most comfortable way to travel but also the most expensive. Book your ticket before you book your hotel. Remember that parking in Amsterdam is very expensive, so stay outside the city centre and travel in by bus or by train.
The third choice is by coach! This is usually the cheapest, but in summer, the coaches sometimes get crowded! And it takes you about twelve hours to get there. However, it will not cost as much as going by train.
Finally, you can fly. It is the fastest and the second cheapest, but you may have to wait for hours at the airport because of bad weather.
Well, I hope this helps! Have a great trip!

Hello, everyone! Thank you very much for coming to this concert. I hope you have enjoyed the performance. As you may know, all the performers have given their time to help us.
This concert is to raise money for children in Africa. Every day, hundreds of children in Africa die because they don’t have enough to eat. There are two reasons. First, there is no work for the children’s parents. Second, the governments in many African countries do not have the money to help the poor.
Most African countries are poor. The land is not good for growing food and the weather is also bad for farming. The Feed Africa Fund spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like you—kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.
Every dollar you give this evening will go to the Feed Africa Fund. Just one dollar can buy enough food to feed a family of four for three days. Think about it: only one dollar can feed four people for three days.
How much do you spend on food every day Ten dollars Twenty dollars I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.
Please be kind and generous! Give your family with a helping hand. Your money can make a difference in others’ life and yours. Thank you!
31. In the speech, the biggest problem in many African countries is ________.
A. hunger B. the bad weather C. the poor land D. water pollution
