But travel does more than all that. It can also make us more creative. In recent years, some professors have been doing research on what many people have already learned from travel experiences. They believe that spending time abroad has the to affect (影响) people’s mind. For example, they found that the students who lived abroad for a longer period were better at problems creatively than those who did not. If you stay in the same place, you can’t experience new sights, new smells, new sounds and new cultures. All these can your mind and make it more active.
, that doesn’t mean the more places you’ve been, the more creative you’ll become. Another group of professors have been doing research. They found the people who often travelled from one place to another didn’t have enough to immerse（使……沉浸）themselves in a new place and a new culture. They weren’t as creative as the people who spent the time getting to know a place. You have to interact（相互影响）with the places you go to and then you can benefit（得益）from it.
If you go travelling. which do you prefer, staying in a place for a certain period or rushing all the way ?

The boy was about 10 years old. He was walking around the people inside the and asked them to buy his sunglasses. But would buy any from him. He tried from one person to another. From the look on his face, I knew he would not anyway.
Now, I decided to have a with him. I went up and asked, “Do you go to school?” He nodded his head. Then I continued, “Why do you sunglasses?” He said nothing. I gave him $20 and said that I was not in of the sunglasses but he could keep the money. To my , his face changed a lot, which is still in my memory today. I didn’t know to say next. Then he replied, “Either you buy sunglasses or you back the money. I don’t need your pity.” I felt very for what I did, and I told him that I would buy two pairs.
I took these sunglasses home and kept myself, “Did such a young boy need to do it for his self-respect（自尊）?” He could take the $20 and left. But he chose to sell his sunglasses and get the money not because of others’ . I will remember this lesson forever.
