almost all people are fond of travelling. it is very interesting to see new places, another towns and countries. people may travel either for pleasure or on business. there are various means of travelling. for me there is nothing like travel by air; it is more comfortable, more convenient and, of course, far quicker than any other means. there is none of the dust and dirt of a railway or car journey, none of the trouble of changing from train to steamer and then to another train.

with a train you have speed, comfort and pleasure combined. from the comfortable seat of a railway carriage you have a splendid view of the whole countryside. if you are hungry, you can have a meal in the dining-car; and if a journey is a long one you can have a wonderful bed in a sleeper.

travelling by ship is also very popular now. it is very pleasant to feel the deck of the ship under the feet, to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing in the face and hear the cry of the seagulls.

many people like to travel by car. it is interesting too, because you can see many sights in a short time, you can stop when and where you like, you do not have to buy tickets or carry your suitcases.

a very popular means of travelling is hiking. it is travelling on foot. walking tours are very interesting. hitch-hiking is a very popular method of travelling among young people. but it is not as popular in our country as abroad.

mass media (that is, the press, the radio and television) play an important role in the life of society. they inform, educate and entertain people. they also influence the way people look at the world and make them change their views. mass media mould public opinion. millions of people in their spare time watch tv and read newspapers.

everybody can find there something interesting for him. on the radio one can hear music, plays, news and various discussions or commentaries of current events. multiple radio or tv games and films attract a large audience. newspapers are used in different ways, but basically they are read.

there is a lot of advertisment on mass media. some of the tv and radio stations and newspapers are owned by different corporations. the owners can advertise whatever they choose.

but it is hardly fair to say that mass media do not try to raise cultural level of the people or to develop their artistic taste. mass media brings to millions of homes not only entertaiment and news but also cultural and educational programs.

there are more then six tv channels and lot's of radio stations and newspapers now in the russian federation.
