    I had a summer camp with my classmates last year.
    Early in the morning, we gathered at the bus station. After saying goodbye to our parents, we
got on the bus.①It took us more than two hours to arrive at the campground.
    We got off the bus cheerfully. Laughing and shouting, we jumped and ran all over the place.
It was the first time for us to be away from the parents. Some of us started to feel homesick (想
家). However, when the night party and dances began, the homesickness was gone.
    The next day, ②everybody rushed to the boating class, hoping to be at the head of the others.
At first, my friends and I worked hard but the boat wouldn't listen to us and kept going round
and round. Then the teacher taught us how to work together. After many tries, we did much better.
    Swimming class was my favourite. It was about the hottest time of a day and the best time to
stay in the cool water.  The swimming teacher was afunny man, and during the class he often
made us laugh happily.
    During the week I learned a lot of new things and made many new friends.I also learned how
to take care of myself.
