Strange things happen to time when you travel because the earth is divided into twenty-four zones（时区）, one hour apart（一个时区相差一个小时）. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-fours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.
If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean（大西洋）, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back, traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.
If you travel by ship across the Pacific Ocean（太平洋）, you cross the International Date Line（国际日期变更线）. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins.

Dear Rona,
How’s everything going? I’m now in Fuzhou because my father has just found a new job here. I’m studying in No. 101 Middle School. It’s very clean and beautiful with many trees in it. There is a big swimming pool in my school, so I often go swimming after school. Every Friday afternoon, I like to go to the English Corner to practice (speaking) English.
I get on very well with my teachers and classmates.They are friendly to me.
I like my new school. I really enjoy my school life here.
Love,
Jenny
