Question

Oxfam Trailwalker has been one of Hong Kong's biggest money­raising events since 1981. It is organized by Oxfam Hong Kong to raise money for helping poor people. People over eighteen can group themselves into a team of four people and join this walk.

Oxfam Trailwalker is a hard hike because you have to finish walking 100 kilometers in 48 hours. It means you may have to walk two days and nights without sleeping. The trailwalkers have to walk through eight country parks and over twenty hills and mountains.

It is a good chance for people to learn team spirit. All the team members must walk together to finish the hike because only the team's finishing time will be recorded. It is necessary for them to support and help each other. You should plan what you are going to carry during the walk. You cannot carry everything with you, so it is useful to have supports from your teammates. Warm and dry clothes are also necessary. Each team must raise at least HK$6，000.

本文主要讲述香港乐施会组织的乐施会毅行活动。乐施会毅行自1981以来一直是香港最大的筹资活动之一。它是由香港乐施会组织筹集资金来帮助穷人的。18岁以上的人4人分成一组，参加这次徒步旅行。 “毅行”很难，因为你必须在48小时内走完100公里。这是人们学习团队精神的好机会。所有的队员必须一起步行才能完成徒步旅行，因为只有队员的完成时间会被记录。他们需要互相支持和帮助。你应该计划好在徒步时要带什么。你不可能随身携带所有的东西，所以得到队友的支持是很有用的。每队必须筹集至少6000港元。
