暑假攻略之户外运动新体验

In summer, some people avoid outdoor activities because they don't want to get hot and sticky, sunburnt or dehydrated. Luckily, there are some outdoor activities which don't involve breaking sweat.

夏天时，一些人总对户外运动唯恐避之不及，原因是他们不想变得又热又黏，遭遇晒伤或脱水的危险。幸运的是，有些户外运动并不会让你流汗。
River rafting
漂流

Hot summer weather and cool water - what a perfect match. River rafting can be both scenic and exciting. When the raft follows a gentle stream, the views of the countryside or valley is like a traditional Chinese painting. And when you enter white water where the riverbed creates a natural roller coaster, you feel a rush of adrenaline. Paddle your raft to the riverbank to have a picnic or barbecue which will taste best when you are starving.
夏季炎热的天气和清凉的河水简直就是天生一对。漂流既可以欣赏风景又可以体验刺激。当皮筏随着涓涓细流缓缓而下时，沿途乡村或山谷的景致就像一幅水墨画一样。当皮筏驶到一朵朵浪花之中，体验由河床为你打造的天然过山车时，你将会感受到肾上腺素分泌带来的快感。当你饿了的时候，可以将皮筏划到岸边，来一次野餐或烧烤，简直美味极了。

Where to find: River rafting trips are usually on offer in mountainous or valley regions such as the Three Gorges.
去哪里：通常一些山区或峡谷地带会开设漂流项目，如三峡。

Tips: Wear a helmet and life jacket at all times; bring enough sunscreen; and bring lots of water.
小贴士：确保安全帽和救生衣不离身，带足防晒霜和饮用水。
