     Americans think that travel is good for you . Some even think it can help to solve one of the country’s worst problems—crime .
     Crime worries a lot of people . Every year , the number of crimes goes up and up . They often come
from sad homes , with only one parent at all . There are problems with alcohol(酒精) and drugs(毒品).
     There are many young criminals in prison . But prison doesn’t change them-60 to 70 percent will go
back to crime after they are out of prison .
     One man , Bob Burton , thought of a new idea . In the old days , young men had to live a hard life on
the road . They learnt to be strong and brave , and to help their friends in time of danger . This helped
them to grow into men . So Bob started "Vision Quest ".
     He takes young criminals on a long , long journey with horses and wagons(四轮马车) 3,000 miles
through 7 states . They are on the road for more than one year .
     The young people on "Vision Quest " all have bad problems . Most of them have already spent time in
prison . This is the last chance .
     It’s hard work on the road . The day starts before the sun comes up . The boys and girls have to feed
the horses . Some of them have never loved anyone before . But they can love their horses . That love can help them to a new life .
     Not all young people in “Vision Quest” will leave crime behind them , 30 or 40 percent will be in the
prison again . But that’s a lot better than 60 to 70 percent . Bob is right . Travel can be good for you .
Even today , Americans still say , " Go west , young men . "
