Welcome to Banktown Bushwalking (丛林徒步旅行) Club! Here are some things you need to know:
Most walks are in faraway places. You need to take enough food and water for a full day of activity on each walk. This is the most important thing to remember.
Wear good lace-up shoes, because you need to do some climbing sometimes.
Each walk has a grade. If you haven’t been bushwalking before, we suggest that you start with an easy walk- Grade 1 or 2. If you have been bushwalking before, then a Grade 3 walk may be suitable.
All beginners need to call or e-mail the leader of an activity 48 hours before the start of the activity. They need to make sure that you are fit and able to finish the activity as planned.

John has a pet dog named Sunlight. He loves him very much. He ever told others that Sunlight was one of his family members.
One midnight, John’s house was on fire suddenly. John was sleeping and didn’t know what was happening. At that time, Sunlight noticed the fire and woke up John. John called the police. Soon the fire was put out by the police.
Now John often says to others, “ The dog is really my good friend. In the thick smoke and big fire, he could have run out of the house first, but he didn’t. No matter how dangerous it is, he first thinks of his owner.”
Today more and more dogs are wandering ( 流浪 ) in the street. Many people don’t want to keep their dogs because they move to another place. Even some people say that they can’t stand the dogs’ dirtiness. Animals are one part of our society. Maybe our pets will give us a hand like Sunlight someday.

2.The police put out the fire that night.
3.Sunlight ran away because he was afraid of the fire.
4.Some people don’t want to keep dogs because they move to another place.
