Vending machines (自动售货机) sell many different kinds of things. Some of
them sell cold drinks like coke or orange juice, or hot drinks like coffee or
tea. Others sell sweets, stamps, tickets, newspapers, and other small things.
In some cities, vending machines are even used to sell a lot of hot meals.
These machines have been welcomed for two reasons. They save (节省) time
and they are convenient (方便的). Things sold in vending machines need no shop
assistant or cashier. In many places people can use the machines at any time
of day or night, and they can find vending machines everywhere.
Although there are many different sizes and kinds of vending machines, they
all work in nearly the same way. People put money into the machine and then open
a door to receive what they buy. Some machines will also return change to the
people, and a few will even give change to paper notes. But the idea is the same.
People like to save time and are usually willing to pay a higher price for this
convenience.

can enjoy the sunrise( 日出). After checking in at the hotel, you can spend the
rest of the day visiting some interesting places.
Day 3
The last day will give you a break at the indoor swimming pool(室内游泳
池) in the hotel. Seawater comes into the pool every day. So even on cold days,
your dream (梦想) of swimming in seawater can come true. Going back to Beijing,
visitors need to get on the ship. It leaves at 6 pm.
Day 4
The ship returns to Tanggu Port at around 6 am. In another three hours, you
