Last summer, I went to a river trek（徒步旅行）with my mother and some British friends. The rocks in the river were so slippery （滑的） that it was hard for us to walk. We walked carefully, but the freezing water still flooded into our shoes and trousers. I was getting very cold and tired. I wanted to give up, but when I saw other kids moving so fast, I decided to follow them, even though I was far behind. It was even more difficult during the last part of the walk. I became so tired that I lost my footing and fell several times. But with the help of my mother and my friends, I got to my feet and kept going each time I fell.
At last, we arrived at a waterfall. Everybody jumped into the river from a high rock. When it was my turn, I was very scared and tried to hide around a corner. My friends noticed this and encouraged me, “Come on, Kevin! You can do this！” With my eyes closed, I jumped into the river.
Although I am not as strong as my British friends, I completed our trek. This experience made me realize that perseverance（坚持不懈）is, and will always be important to everyone in life!

Last summer I went to India with my family. We spent 10 days traveling around Rajasthan and I will never forget it. We saw lots of things like the Taj Mahal(泰姬陵) and we went to a tiger reserve(保护区). Our guide was called Krishna and he was really nice especially when I didn’t always understand things he would explain it to me and answer all my stupid questions. Also when I got ill with a fever， he was really kind and gave me medicine and got a priest(神父) to give me a blessing in a Hindu temple we visited， and then I got well again very quickly.
There were lots of amazing parts of the holiday. One was when we got to ride on elephants in Jaipur. My sister and I rode an elephant called Lucky. We were in a camel cart but Krishna talked to the camel’s owner and we were allowed to ride on them， which was really cool. I also really liked the Taj Mahal because it was even prettier than I imagined. My sister lost her shoes. But the people in India are really kind， so we found them again. The weather was really hot which was nice because Krishna gave us lots of time to spend in the pool and relax in-between going to see all the amazing places.
This was the best holiday that I have ever been on. I wish I could come back another year.

I am Alice. My sister and I spent our last summer holidays with our uncle who is a geologist (地质学家) and loves to collect stones.
One day he bought us two backpacks and asked us to go to the mountain with him. We walked the whole day. Every now and then he put stones in our backpacks. To our surprise, he also took some stones out from them. But we thought he had just found better stones.
When we returned to the house, we were very tired. The backpacks were so heavy that we felt relief （轻松）when we took them off. Yet our uncle’s backpack was half empty.
"Why did you give us so many stones?” we asked.
"I didn’t. You did." he said. “You didn't know it, but I gave you a little attitude(态度) test today. I listened to every word you said. Whenever you were complaining (抱怨) , I added a stone to your backpacks. whenever you talked about something with positive (积极的) thinking, I took out a stone. And now look at your backpacks."
Our backpacks were full of stones.
“Your negative( 消极的) thoughts are just like stones. You carry them in your mind just like those stones in your backpacks. The mote negative thoughts you have, the heavier your mind will be.” said our uncle.
