Nowadays more and more people prefer to go fishing or hiking in the woods. Experiencing nature is {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, but when you're doing this, always keep yourself safe. It's important to remember several basic rules if you don't want to turn a pleasant outing into a {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

First, be fully prepared for different weather. Before you set out, always get warm clothes and raincoats ready, just in case! This is especially true in the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} of travelling in the mountain areas. The weather is really {#blank#}4{#/blank#} in high mountains. Sometimes you can experience two or three seasons in one day.

Second, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} a map, a compass, and a flashlight in your bag. Even experienced travelers get lost. Before you start your trip, study the map to get familiar with the area you are going to. The flashlight is important if you do get lost. Many trips that start out in daylight will {#blank#}6{#/blank#} become nighttime adventures when people can't find their way.

Third, bring a first-aid kit and know how to use it. Small cuts can be more serious when there is no doctor {#blank#}7{#/blank#}.

Finally, tell people where you are going and when you plan to come back. That way, someone will go search for you if troubles {#blank#}8{#/blank#}. This will increase your chance of being found quickly.

My friend Jack is a taxi driver. He has done this job for ten years. It's a nice job most of the time. He can meet a lot of people every day. He usually goes home after two o' clock in the morning. There are some very strange things, which often happen at night.

 One day, Jack was taking a young lady back home from a party at three o' clock in the morning. She had her little dog with her. When they got to her house, she found that she had lost her key. So Jack waited in the taxi with the dog while she climbed into her house through the window. Jack waited for about half an hour outside, but the young lady didn't show up. So he decided to find out what was going on. He tied the dog to a tree and started to climb in through the window.

 At that moment some policemen came. They thought Jack was a thief who wanted to get into the house to steal things. Luckily, the young lady came downstairs. She went to sleep and forgot about her friend and the dog.

Last summer, Sam went to a river to catch fish with his friends near his home. They had great fun walking in cool running water to catch the small silver fish.

Before going to the river, Sam found a bag first. As soon as he reached the river with his friends, they took off their shoes and socks and put their feet into the running water. It was so cool. Walking carefully, Sam looked for the right place where the fish shone. Often Sam fished with his friend and it was easier. But this time Sam fished by himself because he wanted to have a try. Taking two corners(角) of the bag, he stood in the water and slowly put the bag down to the river. Little by little, he put it down to the bottom(河底) . Then he waited, not making any sound, or moving a bit. When the fish went above the bag, Sam moved the bag up quickly and carefully. He got it. The bag was full of little silver fish.

But the greatest fun was not just in catching the fish, but also in letting them go back into the river to go on their natural lives. Sam put down the bag into the river, and the small fish swam off. Other children would also do the same and let the fish go away.
