I go camping in the mountains with my classmates．After hiking all day, we find a place to camp for the night．We make a campfire so that we can cook our dinner．We roast(烤)some hot dogs and potatoes and drink lemonade(柠檬汽水)．Then, when it gets dark, we tell ghost(鬼)stories around the campfire．
Later when we lie down to go to sleep, we listen to the sounds of crickets(蟋蟀)and small animals moving around in the grass．We think there are some ghosts nearby．“What’s that?” my friend Ann asks．“What?” we ask．“I think I hear someone walking in the woods(森林)．”Ann says．Soon we all hear footsteps and we are all so scared that we can’t get to sleep．
Of course, there’s no one there, but we have very active imaginations(丰富的想像力)．
