On a Saturday morning, I went camping in Green Natural Park with some friends. We were happy because it was a sunny day. All the way there, we sang songs and made jokes. 36, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, it started to rain. Unluckily, none of us brought a(n) . We ran about but couldn’t find any places to .

Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There was a long way to go we reached the campsite (野营地). It was worse because our compass (指南针) showed that we went the wrong way.

We had to make a quick decision because it was raining heavily. Chris said we could a tent (帐篷) to hide in, so Mary and Tom to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were not able to light the fire, because everything was . We dried ourselves, talked and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We to stop the camping trip because all of us were very tired.

This camping trip might not be very but we got to know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

2.Green is an important color in nature.It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees.It is the color of most growing plants,too.
Sometimes,the word green means young,fresh and growing.Sometimes,it describes something that is not yet finished or plants that are not ripe..
For example,a greenhorn is someone who has no experience,who is new to a situation.In the fifteenth century,a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed.A century or so later,a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in war (战争).By the eighteenth century,a greenhorn had the meaning it has today--a person who is new in a job.
About one hundred years ago,greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west.Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east.The greenhorn didn't have the skills that he would need to live in the hard,rough country.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb.The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.
A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well.You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution (革命) is the name which was given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains.The new plants produced much larger crops.The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural (农业的) scientists who had green thumbs.
