Traveling alone is very popular among the young people, because they are independent and chase³ for freedom, so they like to go without friends. Then they are easily becoming the gangster’s targets. Therefore, having someone accompany not only can share the opinion, but also can be safe. Second, it is better not to go to the place which is dark and less people. The bad guys like to choose this place because they will not be noticed and are easy to do the criminal⁴ things. We need to learn to protect ourselves, life is precious⁵. 

最近，新闻报道说一名大学生去广州旅游，但是失踪了，最后，警察发现了她的尸体。这是多么可怕啊。这样的事故警告人们要保护自己，特别是女孩子。第一，我们最好和朋友旅行。独自旅行在年轻人当中很流行，因为他们独立，追求自由，因此他们不喜欢和朋友走。这样他们很容易成为歹徒的目标。因此，有人陪伴不仅能彼此交流，还能变得安全。第二，最好不要去黑暗和人少的地方。坏人喜欢选择这样的地方，因为没有什么人会注意到他们，方便他们犯罪。我们需要保护自己，生命是很可贵的。
