"You're so brave!"

Why is it that a woman travelling alone, as I have often done for months at a time, is perceived to be "brave", whereas men who travel alone are entirely unremarkable？

You are only brave when you are afraid of something but still do it anyway.I have never been afraid of travelling alone.

The first time I travelled alone was when I was19.I was due to travel in Europe with a friend at the end of the summer.She announced by letter two days before our departure that she would be leaving me halfway at Vienna.It was too late by then to rope in another friend, so it was either to go home after Vienna, or keep going by myself.I kept going.I got on trains by myself, checked into hostels by myself and found my way around by myself.It was weird at first, but later I stopped worrying about it.

When I got back to Ireland after that trip, I felt proud of myself.I had done something I had assumed would be hard, and it had turned out to be not hard at all.

That was three decades ago, and since then I have travelled all over the world, usually on my own.I still do what I did then, which is to keep a diary.The greatest gift of solo travel has been those I've met along the way.I may have set off alone each time but I've encountered many people who became important to me.I met my husband in Kathmandu, Nepal.I met lifelong friends in Australia, Poland, Hungary, Turkey, India, Indonesia and many other places.

听力原文：W: Dan，did you want to see me？

M: Oh，yes，Sue，please sit down．We need some help．

W: What can I do？

M：Look at this schedule．There are four conferences in April．And there aren't enough representatives to cover all of them．

W: But I am not on the executive staff．

M: I know，but you have studied management and merchandising．And we have openings for more managerial people．There is a good opportunity for you here．

W: That sounds wonderful．But what do you want me to do？

M: There's a conference in Seattle on the 18th of April．I want you to represent us．

W: That's a big responsibility

M: You'll do very well，and I'm pretty sure．

W: Is there a lot to learn？

M: There are a few things，but they aren't difficult．

W: There isn't much time left．Can I start now？

M: There are some reports on the previous conferences in the files．You can study those．

W: Can you give me any guidelines about etiquette in other countries？

M: There are several overall guidelines that apply to international conferences．

W: Then where can I find all the country-specific information？

M: Usually you can call that country's embassy or consulate．Most of them have printed materials for business visitors．And there are also travel books available at public libraries．If you don't have enough time，you can also ask Sally，as she attended the conference there last time．

W: Great．And will our company arrange for transportation？
