Monkeys and other animals soon died out in the same way.

Dear Ace Travel,
My family and I want to take a trip this summer somewhere in eastern China. I hope you can provide me with some about the kinds of vocations that your firm can offer. We would like to travel to an place and we don’t mind how far we have to go. It has to be a place where we can do lots of activities; we especially love hiking and swimming, but any kind of outdoor activity is fine. We also need to stay in an hotel or apartment. It would be nice if we could get a room with a kitchen so we could save money by cooking our own meals. The room needs to be for three people. Also, we’d like to stay at a place with a big pool or somewhere near the ocean. Could you please give me some suggestions for vacation spots?
Thank you very much!
S. T. Zhang

Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18, 1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices（偏见） of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously （匿名）.
But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced （增强）by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.
The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related（相关的） books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.
You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen's Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.
