A
Saturday, June 16th
In the morning, we went camping along a path in Green Natural Park. We were happy because it was a sunny day. We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday. On the way, we kept singing and making jokes.
However, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, there was a shower. Unluckily, none of us brought an umbrella. We ran about but we could find no place to hide.
Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There were hours to go before we reached the campsite (野营地). It was even worse that our small compass (指南针) showed that we went to the wrong way. We lost our way!
We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent to hide in, so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were unable to light the fire, as everything was wet. We dried ourselves, chatted and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house How will you escape Do you know how to save yourself Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average(平均高度的) person, hanging by the fingertips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leak(渗) into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely.
Dropping onto cement(水泥) might end in injury. Bushes(灌木丛) and grass can help to break a fall.
56. It is important to ________.
A. put out the fire in the burning house
B. know the ways to escape the fire
C. jump off a burning house
D. keep the door closed
57. It is possible to escape through the windows ________.
A. if there are some bushes on the ground
B. if you are strong enough
C. if you live on a lower floor
D. if you have a long rope
58. Which of the following escaping ways is NOT right
A. You can escape through stairways.
B. You can choose fire escapes.
C. Escape from the windows that open onto a roof.
D. Use a lift to come down at once.
59. Open the window so that ________ if the building is on fire.
A. you can get fresh air
B. you can call for help
C. you can easily jump off
D. you can be seen first
