The Spring Festival is approaching and many students want to go travelling. But I had made up my mind not to go anywhere. The reasons are as follows. Firstly, as senior three student, I have to work hardly to be admitted to my dream university. What’s more, I’d like to do some houseworks so that my parents can have a better rest. Meanwhile, during every holiday, there are so much tourists in almost every scenic spot that it is difficult to admire for the beautiful scenery and enjoy myself. Beside, there is a long holiday waits for me after the Gaokao. And they can travel anywhere I like then.

This summer, I, along with several other international students, traveled to the region of Berounka and found a lovely camping place beside the river. At night, I shared a tent with three girls from Brazil, the United States, and Belgium. 1. I didn't know what to bring, just my sleeping bag and some warm clothes. And with the light of the campfire burning all night, I was unable to sleep until 1 o'clock.
Later that morning, when we were all on the raft and ready to leave, I was told to sit in the middle because I'd never used a paddle before. 2.Once we set off, my US friend showed me how to use a paddle. I found it wasn't so hard—it just made my arms really tired. I listened carefully to what my friends were saying, at the same time looking around at the beautiful scenery. 3. Suddenly, the raft turned over. and we all fell into the water. My friends managed to reach the other side of the river quickly, but they couldn't catch me. I felt panicked but wanted to get out of the water as soon as I could.4..
At last, I finally made it to a rock near the riverbank. I was so delighted and asked my friends to take a photo of me.5.From then on, I tried rafting almost every summer. My experience taught me that we should try new things and get to know new people, even if it means facing danger.
A. I'd never camped outside before.
B. I heard my friends cheering me up loudly.
C. I shared what I brought with my three roommates.
D. So I grasped my paddle and swam stoutly to my friends.
E. I held on tightly to my paddle, not daring to move one bit.
F. I had fallen into the river, but I fell in love with this sport too.
G. Tree-filled mountains, the clear blue sky, and wooden cottages surrounded me.
Golden eagle populations in the UK are set to increase as some chicks are reintroduced to the north of England. Ten birds will be released(释放)from south of Edinburgh in summer 2018, with the hope of bringing the species back from disappearing in England. More eagles will be released in the summertime of the next five years.
The project received ￡ 1.3 million of lottery funding in March and has now been awarded a further ￡ 150,000 to employ workers to run the operation. Project manager Cat Barlow said: “This is a really exciting time as the project is now starting to happen and we will soon start to see its benefits. Work will start next summer, when we will collect a number of golden eagle chicks in the Highlands and bring them south to be reared and released from an already selected place.”
The birds will be released with satellite tracking tags that will allow the scientists to gather information about their behavior and find if they suddenly go offline.
Recently, golden eagles have died out in England as the last known individual is believed to have died. Due to the popularity of shooting birds of prey(食肉猛禽), those birds in the wild struggle to survive. Main causes of death are systematic poisoning, shooting and nest disturbance by gamekeepers.
It is hoped that the newly released birds will move further south in search of new living areas and food supplies. The project expects to see the number of wild birds in Scotland and England increase as the range of the animals develops. While the birds were gone in England, in the Highlands of Scotland the number of golden eagles rocketed. With up to 500 breeding pairs, the chicks will be sourced from here. It is hoped that golden eagles may finally return to the north of England, and if all goes well, numbers should grow steadily.
