My mther always tld me,“Yu shuld explre yur wn cuntry befre stepping ut int the wrld.”Hwever,it seems like a tugh missin t travel all acrss its expansive surfaces.But luckily fr me,Via Rail Canada ffered yuths between the ages f 18 and 25 the chance t ride the train acrss Canada fr the mnth f July.The ticket was a bargain $150.My friends Trevr,Jel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the pprtunity and secured fur tickets n the great Canadian railrad.
Fr a grup f 20-year-lds,this was like the first flight f yung birds frm the nest.When we apprached the train statin in the mrning,ur 22-day adventure frm Sudbury t Vancuver was t begin.Eyes baggy frm lack f sleep,we jumped n bard as if it was the train t Hgwarts in Harry Ptter.Althugh the thught f three full days n thse tracks cvering clse t 3,000 kilmetres crushed ur spirits a little,what happened next caught us by surprise.
The three days n bard turned int a summer camp n rails.At night,we wuld climb up the glass-dmed train car,which gave us a scenic view f the starry night sky,untuched by the harmful light pllutin.Befre we knew it,the warm sun rays beating dwn n ur faces wke us up fr anther day n the rails.T my surprise,a sea f glden grain fields dminated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies.
Anther day slipped away and we set up fr anther night in the dme.And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstrm.Lightning was striking at an incredible rate.The spectacular and memrable light shw left everyne in the glass bubble in cmplete disbelief.
Arriving in the Rcky Muntains was ne f the mst surreal(超现实的) experiences f my life.Befre the train adventure,if I culd have skipped the travel and arrived at the destinatin,I wuld have.That is n lnger true.I’ve learned that the jurney can be mre enjyable than the destinatin.

A.A brain in lack f imaginatin.

27.What did the authr learn frm the train adventure acrss Canada?
A.Opprtunities are hard t get.
