In America, boys and girls often join clubs. The members of a club work together. They also
learn certain skills and share good times.
Many boys belong to Boy Scouts. Boy scouts enjoy hiking and camping out together, and they learn many things. Scouts learn safety rules, first aid, and what to do when in danger. Members have a chance to learn outdoor living. They learn to build fires and cook out in the open.
Girl Scouts and Camp Fire Girls are clubs for girls. These two clubs give their members a chance to have fun and learn. The girls in a group take trips, have parties and go hiking and camping together. The Camp Fire Girls earn honor beads( 荣誉珠) for learning such skills as swimming and cooking. The Girl Scouts earn badges(徽章).
Both boys and girls can be members of 4-h clubs, Children who live in either the city or the country may belong to 4-h. A project such as raising a pig or a calf can be carried on only by farm children, while city children can take part in gardening and cooking projects.

I live in Missouri, near a river called the Jacks Fork. Before I was born, my grandparents had decided to help keep the_____ clean. So they started a club called Stream Team 713. I like its another_____ better—the Jacks Fork River Rats! Our club makes sure the water is clean and healthy for fish and people. And now I'm old enough to help_____ the river, too.
Picking up rubbish is_____ a treasure hunt (搜寻). My friends and I look for plastic bags, bottles, paper and other things. There used to be even more rubbish here. On one weekend, my grandparents_____ picked up 6 tons of rubbish. That's as much as an elephant weighs!
The rubbish was_____ to the river or the animals and plants that lived there. So the River Rats taught people who were playing around the river to take rubbish with them rather than_____ it. Now there's much less_____ for us to pick up. Maybe one day we won't find any rubbish here.
My favorite job is to look for water bugs (虫子)! The bugs like to stay at the river bottom. Some bugs don't_____ how dirty the water is, but other bugs can only live in clean water. ______ we find lots of bugs that need clean water, then we will know the river is clean enough for fish and for us.
I love taking care of the Jacks Fork River Rats. I will try my best to help make sure it's a clean, safe place for people to play.
