We certainly did not find this to be the case and, except for a few places in faraway mountain areas, the roads were wide, and well-paved(鋪設(shè)). We drove for 12 days along the Western Coast of Turkey and had no problems at all. We found the Turkish drivers to be very polite and well educated. We also found that eating lunch in the smaller towns was difficult, so we picnicked almost every day. The following day after our arrival was Turkeys Childrens Day, started by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Ataturk loved children and he often said: “Children are a new beginning of tomorrow.” He even dedicated (奉獻(xiàn)) the day 23rd of April to the children which today is celebrated as Childrens Day as well as the date when the Republic of Turkey was founded.On that day certain children are picked to take over the places of the government, and a lucky kid will be the president of Turkey for a whole day. He can decide whats going to happen and whether or not he is going to have the president next to him. There are a very large number of possibilities of things he can do but some shops arent open because they are celebrating the day as well. All in all， it was a more enjoyable trip.

The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals. Think twice before you decide The decisions you make when it comes to eating meat or other animal products can go a long way toward stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian(素食的) diet. If you arent ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy animal products from companies known to use practices that go against the law such as using drugs to increase milk production in cows.Help get the word out Getting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important issues that are related to animals. Give some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem were facing. Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give your friend. Write a letter Weve all heard the saying, “The pen is more powerful than the sword”. Put this idea to the protection of animals. If some companies have practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know you are angry about them, and that you wont buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to the state and local legislators(立法者) to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote. Be more loving If youre considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless- animal house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to those who are responsible for taking care of pitiful animals. Let your actions be an example to others It may sound simple, but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living creatures wit
