Many people do not like to stay at home on holidays. They want to go out to see something dif-
ferent or do something exciting. So people from the countryside go to the city and people from the
city go to the countryside for holidays. During the holidays, trains, buses and planes are all very
busy. It s very hard to buy train tickets or air tickets. Many people take cars or buses for traveling.
Last May Day, my family went to the countryside by car for our holiday. There was too much
traffic on the road, so we had to move very slowly. It took us about an hour to get out of town. After
some time, we came to a farm. It was clean and beautiful. The animals were very lovely. We
thought it was a nice place for a picnic, so we stopped and took the food, fruit and drinks out of the
car. We sat down under a big green tree and began to eat. Suddenly, a strong wind blew and soon
it started to rain. We had to run back to our car and had our picnic in the car. Then we drove back
home. What a bad trip it was!

完成图表。 根据短文内容,完成图表中所缺信息。
Yesterday I visited a museum. There I learn about a lot of amazing(令人惊奇的) facts about
man and animals. What interested me most were a talk and some stories about animals.
Do you know how much TV you watch in your life In yesterday s talk, the scientist(科学家)
said that a man watched TV for over 70,000 hours in his life. It means(意味着) you sit in front of
a TV for 8 years. Do you know how long your hair can be if you don t cut it The scientist said that
it could be as long as 9 meters! Another amazing thing was that you said about 4,200 words a day.
That means more than 100 million in your life!
I didn t like camels(骆驼) before. I thought they were dirty and slow. But now I know they
have some amazing abilities(能力) . Camels can run over 15 meters per second(秒) . And it s a-
mazing that they can keep walking for days without any food or drinks. Camels can help people in
many ways. They can carry things for people.
In the past, I disliked some animals and thought they were dirty and lazy. But now, I find them
interesting. Man should be kind to them. It will be great to study animals and do something for
them. Let s work hard to make the world a better place for both man and animals.
