In July, my friend Jim and I are going to have a camping trip. We will travel for four weeks and will tour the United States and part of Canada.

    We decided to go camping because we didn't have to spend much money in that way.

    We had to make our plan very carefully. First, the car we are going to drive is very small, so we decided to take only one small suitcase(皮箱) each and as few camping things as possible (尽可能的). We will take some medicine with us to stop insects(昆虫) from hurting us, and also food for outdoor meals. Second, there is a lot to see in the United States and Canada, so we had to decide on which way we wanted to drive before we started.

    All of this planning took a long time.

    The date we are leaving is July 2nd. We want to see and do many things on our camping tour. We want to climb the hills and swim in cool rivers and lakes. We want to go sightseeing in many cities and talk to many people. We also want to find a hotel room if it rains at night. We hope to have an exciting and interesting trip.

    James William comes from America. People call him “Big Cat” because he's two meters tall. He is famous because he plays for the Chicago Bears, an American football team . American football is different from European  football . American football players need to be big and strong , so James needs to eat a lot .

    Every day James has three big meals . For breakfast ,he has orange juice , fruit , bread , milk , eggs and cakes. For lunch , he has fish , meat ,vegetables and ice cream. He loves ice cream best.

In the evening he has his big meal, tomato soup, pork and beef, potatoes, chicken, rice and his favorite chocolate cakes.

    But that isn't everything , James also eats between meals, bread, hamburgers, sweets and two or three bars of chocolates.

    Mr. Smith is a teacher. He is near-sighted（近视的）. But he doesn't wear glasses. One day, he is walking in a street. He is thinking something. Suddenly a strong wind blows his cap off his head. Mr. Smith runs after it.

    He wants to catch it but he can't. At this time, an old woman from a door of the house says to him,

    "Hi! What are you doing, sir?"

    "Running after my cap."

    "Your cap? Aha… that's my black cat," she says.

    "Your cat? Sorry, but where is my cap?"

    Last year, I went to Beijing Qizhi Special Education School for community service（社区服务）.Before we took the bus, my friend asked me a question, "Why are you here?" I did not know how to answer the question.

    The school was not far from my school, but it looked like it was in a different world. A group of children were waiting for us. A boy walked toward me. He held my hands and pulled me to the ground. I kissed the earth and tasted nature.

    I could not understand what he was doing at first, then I was very angry. Though I was very angry, I controlled my anger.

    A teacher stopped this awkward（尴尬的）silence when she shouted at the boy. "What are you doing right here, right now?" she said. "You will never see your mom again if you keep doing this. Now, say sorry!" "Sorry," he cried fearfully and nervously. I said nothing, but I realized something about this child. After lunch I asked the teacher for information about the child's parents.

    She said that the child was very different from other students because of an illness. His family could not afford to treat him. He needed the kindness of his family, but they had abandoned him. So he depended on the support from the teachers and community service workers like us.

    I suddenly realized I could answer the question my friend asked me at the beginning of the day.

    Community service workers help others and make everyone feel better. There are so many people in the world that need help. Playing with lonely children may not make a big difference. But it can light a corner in the children's hearts, making them know they are loved by people.

Long long ago, there was a boy called Cao Chong. He was the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} son of Cao Cao. He was very smart.

Once, one of Cao Cao's friends {#blank#}2{#/blank#} him a big elephant. Cao Cao was very happy and thanked him. He looked at the big animal and {#blank#}3{#/blank#} to his friends," What a big and heavy elephant! Can you tell {#blank#}4{#/blank#} how to weigh it?" They thought {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, but nobody could think of a good way. Just for that moment, Cao Chong was playing games with brothers. As soon as they heard this, they stopped playing. They all tried their best to come up with a way. After a while, Cao Chong thought up a great idea. He asked a man to take the elephant into a {#blank#}6{#/blank#}, and then marked(标上……作为记号) a line where the water went up. After that the man took the elephant out of the boat. Cao Chong asked other persons to put some {#blank#}7{#/blank#} into the boat instead of the elephant. {#blank#}8{#/blank#} the water went up to the marked line, he told them to weigh all the stones. In this way, he could know {#blank#}9{#/blank#} heavy the elephant was. All of Cao Cao's friends spoke highly of Cao Chong. They thought he would be somebody(大人物) when he {#blank#}10{#/blank#} up.

What an interesting story!
