Last summer, I wanted to take a short vacation in the forest. My family weren’t free, but I really wanted to see the Perseid meteor shower (英仙座流星雨). So I went camping by myself.
With the sleeping bag and some food, I was on my way. I was a little afraid. When I arrived at the camping place, I asked the guide if he thought I’d be all right camping by myself. “Sure,” he said. His answer made me feel brave.
After supper, I made a fire easily. Looking up, I couldn’t see much of the sky through the trees. I got to sleep quickly. A few hours later, I woke up. And then there came a big and scary sound. Thankfully, after a few minutes, it stopped. But I was afraid all the time. I didn’t think it was a good idea to go out and look at the stars after this. There, I heard some animals calling. I was so glad that I could hear this sound of nature (自然).
The next morning, someone talked about how a bear visited in the night. Luckily, the bear did nothing bad. Although I was unhappy at not seeing the stars, now I feel more confident (自信的) about camping by myself. Bear or no bear!

阅读下面短文,按要求完成下面小题。
What can you do to stay in good health when taking a vacation There are some things you should remember when you take a vacation: relax, sleep, and eat well.
A vacation should be a time for relaxing but very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are traveling (旅行). There are so many places to visit: museums, shops, parks… You may spend most days walking around these places. This can be very tiring. Do not ask your body to do too much. A tired body means (意味着) a not good enough body. And you may get sick (生病) easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice and quiet place.
Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable (不舒适的), so you may not get good sleep. You may want to stay out late at night. Then you should sleep for an hour in the day. That hour can make a big difference.
At last, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of foods that are good for your health.

An Unforgettable Trip
I had an unforgettable trip to Beijing last year. I went there by train with my parents. During the trip, we visited many famous places, such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum and Tiananmen Square. I took a lot of photos and learned a lot about Chinese history. I also tried some delicious local food. I really enjoyed this trip because it not only broadened my horizons but also made me feel the charm of our country. I hope to have more chances to travel in the future.
