Reading strategy:
What should we pay attention to when we are reading diaries? When you are reading diary entries recording someone’s travels, you should look for: ⑴ dates and place names

distant
Difference
Some of them are still existing now, but the others are nowhere to be seen.
So we call the ancient buildings, cultures and countries that no longer existed “Lost civilizations”.
⑵ facts and historical information ⑶ personal feelings and opinions
