【题目】I'll never forget the days when I camped (野营) with my classmates last summer.Early in the morning, 200 children from the 4th grade gathered at the bus station. After saying goodbye to our parents, we stood in line to get on the buses. It was more than two hours after we arrived at the campground.
We got off the buses cheerfully like birds flying out of their cages. Laughing and shouting, we jumped and ran all over the place. For us, it was our first time to be away from Dad and Mom. Some started feeling homesick(想家) even before dark. But as the night party and dances began, the homesickness was gone.
The next day, everyone 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 boating teacher taught us how to work together. After many tries, we did better.
Swimming class was my favorite. It was about one o'clock, the warmest time of a day and the best time to stay in the cool water. The swimming teacher was an interesting man. During the class he often made us shout happily.
A week passed before we knew it. During the week I learned many new things and made many new friends. I also learned to take care of myself without parents around me.
