Compose an essay.If you are going to travel as a tourist to a place of interest in China, would you like to go with a tourist group or on your own? Write a 300-word expository essay stating your views.
     WHEN IT COMES TO TRAVEL MODE, DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT PREFERENCES. SOME PEOPLE ARE IN FAVOR OF THE PACKAGE TOUR. HOWEVER, OTHERS WOULD LIKE TO TRAVEL ON THEIR OWN.
     THOSE PEOPLE WHO HOLD THE FIRST OPINION BELIEVE PACKAGE TOUR SAVES THEM A LOT OF TROUBLE, SUCH AS FINDING THE ACCOMMODATION. IN ADDITION, THEY SAY, PACKAGE TOUR CAN RELATIVELY ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE TOURISTS. THEY DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT TRANSPORTATION, ACCOMMODATION, TICKETS AND ROUTES, WHICH HAVE BEEN ARRANGED FOR THEM.
     HOWEVER, STILL OTHERS THINK DIFFERENTLY. IN OTHER OPINIONS, THEY CAN GET A GREATER DEGREE OF INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM, AND CAN TAKE THEIR TIME TO APPRECIATE THE VIEWS. AS WE ALL KNOW, THE BIGGEST DISADVANTAGE OF PACKAGE TOUR IS THAT THE TOURISTS HAVE TO FOLLOW EXACTLY THE TRAVEL AGENCY’S SCHEDULE, THIS IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN TO A DIY TOUR, YOU ARE FREE TO STAY IN THE SCENIC SPOTS AS LONG AS YOU WANT. IF CONDITION PERMITS, SELF-DRIVING TOUR WOULD BE WONDERFUL, YOU DON’T HAVE TO BOOK TRAFFIC TICKETS AND WAIT FOR TIME TABLE, YOU ALMOST CAN TRAVEL TO THE PLACE WHENEVER YOU WANT.
     WEIGHING UP THESE TWO ARGUMENTS, I PREFER TO THE LATTER ONE. FOR ANOTHER, I CAN DECIDE BY MYSELF WHEN TO START ON MY WAY, WHERE TO LINGER A LITTLE LONGER AND WHICH SPOT TO SKIP OVER. CONSIDERING ALL THESE, I THINK TRAVELING ON MY OWN IS A BETTER MODE OF TRAVEL.
