One possible version
Wang Kun and his sister Wang Wei dreamed about taking a great bike trip ever since their middle school days. After graduated from college, they got a chance to do it. It was Wang Wei who first had the ideas to cycle along the Mekong River from its source. They both bought expensive mountain bikes. They also got their cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang to go who were interested in cycling, too.
Wang Wei was a stubborn girl. Although she didn’t know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that they should find the source of the river and began their journey there. When she heard the source of the Mekong River was in Qinghai, she wouldn’t change her mind. She was even excited when she knew that their journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5000 meters. She also thought that it would be an interesting experience.
Before the trip, they went to the library, where they found a large atlas with good maps. From the atlas, they learnt more information about the Mekong River.

Section 2: Background information on TRAVEL JOURNEY

I. How to plan your travel wisely
Traveling can be a fun way to gain life experiences, especially during Spring Break—a week-long school vacation in the United States.
But what if you’re a student and don’t have enough money for a trip? Don’t worry. Here are some useful tips.
Save: This probably is the most important preparation for traveling. Cut expenses(开支) to fatten your wallet so you’ll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.
Plan ahead: Don’t wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought at short notice(短期内). Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security (安全) and savings.
Do homework: No matter where you go, research the places you will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.
Plan sensibly(合理的): Write down how much you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.
