Epigraph for the Lesson

To hit the road – an English Idiom to hit the road Перевод: 1) отправиться в путь, двинуться в путь 2) (разг.) проваливать, убираться с глаз долой, сматываться Синонимы: to set out, to depart, to skedaddle, to scram, to make off, to take to one's heels, to scarper Примеры: If I could be a country music star, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I'd hit the road and just jam out. (Justin Deeley) Age is just a number. Unless, that is, you live in Hollywood, where there's this notion that if you haven't hit it big by your 20s, you may as well hit the road. (Kate Walsh) Происхождение: Идиома «to hit the road» известна даже тем, кто не владеет английским, исключительно благодаря легендарной песне «Hit The Road, Jack» Рэя Чарльза. Сегодня она по-прежнему настолько популярна, что в США исполняется в моменты удаления с площадки во время баскетбольных или хоккейных матчей, и все трибуны подхватывают: «Hit the road, Jack, and doncha come back no more, no more, no more, no more!» – «Скатертью дорога, катись отсюда!» По одной из версий, эта идиома в своем «агрессивном» значении появилась благодаря звуку, который издает тело нетрезвого человека, когда его вышвыривают из питейного заведения. Изначально идиома появилась в эпоху, когда лошади были основным видом транспорта, который создавал постоянный уровень шума на улицах, а каждое путешествие проходило под аккомпанемент равномерного цокота конских копыт. Сейчас используются множество равноценных вариантов идиомы – «to hit the pavement», «to hit the bricks», «to pound the pavement», «to hit the trail». Проверьте себя: I’m ready to hit the road and go to Goa, life is so cheap there that you can travel on a shoestring budget. you’ll need a companion to pay your bills. you’ll have to save up to afford going there.

Tourism Tourism has changed a lot over the past few decades. It is actually quite a new thing. It probably didn’t exist fifty years ago. The only people who travelled then were rich, and they were called travelers. I guess tourism started in the late 60s and early 70s when airplane travel became cheap. The idea of foreign travel suddenly became very popular with millions. Everyone wanted their two weeks of sun in the summer. Tourism today is a multi-billion-dollar industry. There is hardly a corner of the Earth untouched by tourism. The number of tourists is also rocketing. Millions of people from Russia, India and China are now taking vacations. Tourism really is making the world a global village. I’m not sure if this is a good or a bad thing.

Virtual Tourism Special cameras, setups, and software are used to do this. The final product can then be seen using a virtual reality headset, a standard computer, or a mobile device. Many people believe that virtual reality content can only be watched with a specialized VR headset, however, this is not the case. Although viewing VR in this manner makes it more immersive, it can also be viewed on any platform, including mobile phones. VR tourism films produced for VR headsets are sometimes referred to as virtual reality travel experiences. These virtual travel experiences are designed to provide the impression of being at the real destination as closely as possible.  Virtual reality travel experiences, which are at the bleeding edge of 360 VR, offer the user something really unique and unforgettable. The number of travel agencies and organizations using this technology is steadily increasing, indicating that the sector has a bright future ahead of it.A virtual platform might potentially allow individuals to tour regions where terrorism is affecting or being combated. Imagine visiting the Gurez Valley in India's union region of Jammu and Kashmir, with its rich fauna and snow leopard.
