    I had a summer camp with my classmates last year. Early in the morning, we gathered at the bus station .After saying goodbye to our parents, we got on the buses. It took us more than two hours to arrive at the camp ground

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    We got off the buses cheerfully. Laughing and shouting, we jumped and ran all over the place. It was the first time for us to be away from the parents. Some of us started to feel homesick However, when the night party find dances began, the homesickness(想家)was gone.

    The next day, everybody rushed to the boating class, hoping to be at the head of the others. At first, my friends and l worked hard, but the boat wouldn't listen to us and kept going round and round. Then the teacher taught us how to work together. After many tries, we did much better.

    Swimming class was my favourite. It was about the hottest time of a day and the best time to stay in the cool water. The swimming teacher was a funny man, and during the class he often made us laugh happily.

    During the week I learned a lot of new things and made many new friends. I also learned how to take care of myself.

    When Mike was little, his father died. Life became difficult for Mike and his mother. Sometimes they couldn't have enough food to eat. Though it was difficult, his mother worked hard to raise Mike up with the best possible care and education.

    When Mike grew up, he got a chance to move to America for his further study. He studied hard and became an engineer, living a good life. He often sent home letters with much money for his mother. However, with many reasons, he didn't go back to visit his mother year after year.

    When his mother died, Mike returned and held a big funeral (葬礼). His mother left behind a box that she always carried around. Mike opened it and started to cry loudly.

    The box was filled with $100 dollar bills and a piece of paper. It read, "Son. I don't need to spend much money. I miss you a lot. Every time I hear a car passing by, I run out of the door but it isn't you. I save the money for you so that you can use it whenever you need it."

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}One of my friends sometimes takes aside another friend to talk to her about something she doesn't want me to hear. It makes me feel sad. What should I do?

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Some of my friends are in a fight. like them all equally(同样地), but they say I have to choose sides. Help!

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}I look up to my sisters. They're both intelligent(聪明的) feel that I'll never be as good as them.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}I am the shortest person in my class, and my classmates call me "Tiny Mouse." How can I make them stop?

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}I always use the computer and can't stop I feel that I'm not getting any smarter and the computer is warping(扭曲) my brain.
