Last Sunday, my friends and I went on a day out to the countryside. We were all excited about the trip. We started early in the morning and took a bus to a small village.
When we arrived, we were greeted by the beautiful scenery. There were green fields everywhere, and the air was fresh and clean. We first visited a farm. The farmer showed us around and taught us how to feed the animals. We got to feed the chickens and cows, which was really fun.
After that, we went for a walk along a small river. The water was clear, and we could see fish swimming in it. Some of us even tried to catch the fish, but we didn't succeed. We also found some wildflowers by the river and picked a few to make a small bouquet.
At noon, we had a picnic under a big tree. We brought sandwiches, fruits, and drinks. We enjoyed our food while chatting and laughing. It was a really relaxing moment.
In the afternoon, we visited an old temple in the village. The temple was very quiet and had a long history. We learned a lot about the local culture and traditions from the old people there.
As the sun started to set, we had to leave. We all felt a bit sad to say goodbye to the beautiful countryside, but we took many wonderful memories with us.

A day out doesn't always mean going to a far - away place. Sometimes, a trip to a local park can be just as interesting.
Last weekend, I decided to go to the park near my home. It was a sunny day, and the park was full of people. Some were walking their dogs, some were having a picnic, and others were playing sports.
I first went to the lake in the park. There were ducks swimming on the water. I bought some bread from a nearby store and fed the ducks. They swam towards me quickly, quacking loudly. It was so cute to watch them fight for the bread.
After that, I walked along the paths in the park. There were beautiful flowers and trees everywhere. I took many pictures of the colorful flowers. I also saw some children flying kites. Their kites were in different shapes, like birds, butterflies, and even dinosaurs.
Then, I found a bench and sat down to enjoy the peaceful environment. I listened to the birds singing and watched the clouds moving in the sky. It was a great way to relax and forget about all the stress of study.
Finally, I went to the playground in the park. I saw some kids playing on the swings, slides, and seesaws. I couldn't help but join them for a while. It made me feel like a child again.

Going on a day out with family or friends can be a great experience, but it needs good planning.
First, you need to decide where to go. Think about everyone's interests. If your friends like history, you can go to a museum. If your family loves nature, a national park or a forest might be a good choice.
Next, consider the transportation. If the place is not too far, you can go by bike or on foot, which is not only good for the environment but also a great way to exercise. If it's a bit farther, taking a bus or a train can be convenient. And if there are many people going together, renting a car might be a good option.
Then, plan what to take. If it's a sunny day, don't forget to take sunglasses, sunscreen, and hats. If you're going for a picnic, bring food, drinks, and a picnic blanket. Also, take a camera to capture the wonderful moments.
Finally, make sure to check the weather forecast before you go. You don't want to be caught in the rain or in extremely hot or cold weather.
11. What should you do first when planning a day out
A. Decide the transportation. B. Plan what to take.
C. Decide where to go. D. Check the weather forecast.
12. If your friends like history, where can you go
