2019-2020年高中英语 Unit37 向友人再次告知旅游近况函书信通February 18, xxDear Joyce,As you can see from the postmark, Im now in Nepal. Katmandu is a really cool place. There are a lot of narrow, winding streets, ancient temples, and even cows wandering around. Its like Ive gone back in time. Of course, even here they have cars and Coca-Cola, but a lot of things dont seem to have changed in centuries.The people are interesting, too. Since Nepal is a poor country, its not surprising that there are a lot of beggars. There are also holy men called sadhus who wear colorful clothes and wander about asking for alms. The other day I spent an hour sitting on the steps of a temple watching people pass by.My next stop is India. Ill write you from there in a week or two.Sincerely,Vincent亲爱的乔依丝：你可以在邮戳上看到，我现在正在尼泊尔。加德满都真是一个很棒的地方。有很多窄而曲折的街道、古老的庙宇，甚至还有母牛四处走动。我仿佛回到了过去。当然连这里也看得到汽车和可口可乐，但许多事物似乎好几个世纪以来都没有改变过。这里的人也十分有趣。因为尼泊尔是一个贫穷的国家，所以有很多乞丐并不令人感到意外。另外也有很多身着华美衣裳称为圣人的宗教人士到处化缘。前几天，我在一座庙宇的台阶上坐了一小时观察来往的人群。我下一站要到印度。一、两个星期内我会从那里写信给你。文森敬上xx年2月18日字词解说：1. postmark 邮戳2.
