8．Monday：Here I am，in the middle of nowhere．This camping trip idea is not getting off to a very good start．It's raining and the tent leaks．The hiking seemed to take forever，and I still can't understand how it could all have been up hill!How did I ever let my brother talk me into this？When we get home-if we ever get home-he's going to have to do something great to get back on my good side．Maybe he should sponsor a shopping spree （狂购） at the mall!Tuesday：Things are looking up．The sun came out today，so we were able to leave the tents and dry out．We're camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn't see before because of the rain and fog．The mountains are all around us，and the forest is absolutely beautiful．We spent most of the day dragging out everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting it where the sun could dry it out．Later in the afternoon we tried to catch the fish for dinner，but the fish were smarter than we were．At night we built a fire and sang songs happily．
Wednesday：We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak．From there we could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us．On the way up we passed through a snowfield!
Thursday：I caught my first fish!We followed the stream that fed the lake．After about two miles，we came to a section that Carol said looked"fishy"．She had a pack rod（竿），which can be carried in a backpack．I asked to cast it，and I caught a fish on my first try．Carol caught a few more．But they were just too pretty to eat for lunch，so we put them back in the stream．
Friday：I can't believe we are going home already．It will be nice to get a hot shower，sleep in a real bed，and eat junk food，but the trip has been wonderful．We're already talking about another camping adventure next year where we canoe down a river．It's hard to believe，but I think this city girl has a little country blood in her veins．

| Homonym：a word that has the same spelling and the same pronunciation as another world，but a different meaning Same spelling，different meaning Imagine，then a situation where two words are spelt and pronounced exactly the same way，but have completely different meanings．Welcome to the world of homonyms．Take，for example，the word‘fail'---it can be a kind of festival，and adjective to describe the color of your hair or how you should play a game． Don't take it literally So how do you know which meaning someone is referring to？---You don't，except by the context．Obviously，if someone asks you to‘give them a hand'，they don't want you to remove what is at the end of your arm． What's in a name？ Sometimes even the context doesn't help much---the result can be amusing．These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun： I used to be a banker，but I lost interest． Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils？ A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital．When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was，the nurse said：‘No change yet'． More ambiguity And these examples play with the different meanings of a verb： I wondered why the ball was getting bigger．Then it hit me． No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation． A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat． Double trouble And sometimes a word can be a noun and a verb，but have different meanings．Can you work this one out？ Time flies like an arrow．Fruit flies like a banana． If you like these homonyms，you will be pleased to know that English has plenty more! Explanations of jokes in the text I used to be banker，but I lost interest．（I became bored with the job/I lost money） Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn't control his pupils？（students/parts of his eyes） A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital．When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was，the nurse said：‘No change yet'．（no difference in the situation/no money） I wondered why the ball was getting bigger．Then it hit me．（the ball hit me/I suddenly realized） No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation．（became known/fell out） A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat．（can't be better/difficult to mix with a fork） Time flies like an arrow．（time goes quickly） Fruit flies like a banana．（insects enjoy eating fuit．） |

1．When we think of green buildings，we tend to think of new ones----the kind of modern，solar-paneled masterpieces that make the covers of architecture magazines．But the US has more than 100million existing homes，and it would be incredibly （51）B to tear them all down and （52）C them with greener versions．
