Horizon：Cruise ship
【明報專訊】Travelling on cruise ships is an attractive option for some people. There is always a great variety of entertainment you can enjoy on the ship.
What can you do on cruise ships?
Simulators around the ship
Most cruise ships have their own water parks where you can find exciting waterslides and water cannons. Some are even equipped with surf simulator (模擬器) that surf-lover must not miss! If you want more excitement, try the skydiving simulator to experience free-falling.
Sports inside the ship
With different sports facilities available on the cruise, you can do weightlifting and bodybuilding in the gymnasium, play a game at the basketball court, or jog on the jogging track. You can even practice your golf skills at the driving range. Just make sure not to swing the golf ball into the sea!
Poolside movie theatre
We usually watch films at home or in a movie theatre, but have you ever imagined watching a romantic movie under the stars with your family and friends? On some cruise ships, you could sit by the pool and enjoy the poolside movie party. You could even swim while watching the film!
■English highway﹕Even
We use ''even'' to emphasize something that is surprising or unusual.
e.g. It is so difficult to find a job in 2020, even you graduated from a prestigious university.
