Helen: Are you ready to put up with hardships?

Paula: Well, I know for sure that I’m not going to make a

mountain out of a molehill. A fortnight of fresh air and exercise will do me a world of good, I suppose.

Helen: Good? You are subject to colds.

Paula: I need a bit of hardening, I think. That’s what makes

me go hiking.

Helen: Oh, that accounts for it.

Ann: Have you heard the news?

Nick: What news? Anything exciting? Out with it!

Ann: Irene is planning to go mountaineering.

Nick: Irene? She isn’t the one for camping out, I’m afraid.

Fancy her carrying ajieavy rucksack. She’ll never put up with any lack of comfort, if you ask me.

Ann: I don’t think she will. She is sure to complain of hard­

ships the very first day.

Nick: Well, I’ve never thought she is keen on mountaineer­

silly. It’s Peter who is keen on mountaineering and she is head over hills in love with him.

Ann: Ah, that accounts for it.

Это туризм особый: больше всего молодежь любит ходить в походы по стране, плавать по рекам и озерам, отдыхать на турбазах, откуда также можно совершать турпоходы. В походы ходят и на один- два дня в субботу и в воскресенье, и на 2—3 недели, уез­жая далеко от дома.

Маршруты путешествий разнообразны: одни едут на север страны и в Карелию, путешествуют по северным рекам и озерам, другие отправляются на Кавказ или Крым, где теплое море, горы и много солнца. Есть туристические группы, которые из европейской части страны едут путе­шествовать по Дальнему Востоку, на остров Сахалин и Камчатку.
