Last summer, I was invited to a Chinese summer camp. I had a great time there because I made many friends with other countries. The camp covered a variety of programs, ranged from learning daily Chinese to Chinese history and traditional culture. In a party, we take turns to make a self-introduction in the English. However, I was so shy to speak before other people. I stood there for five minute without saying anything, which made me feel very embarrassing. When I finally opened my mouth, someone couldn’t help laughing at my poorly English. I couldn’t feel anything except my face was burning. It was then that we decided to practise spoken English.

Camping essentials (必需品)

Tent
Unless you’re sleeping under the stars or you have a camper or an RV, don’t forget the obvious one: a tent! Check the measurements and user reviews when you are buying one.

3.
Flashlights are another camping item. Bring multiple flashlights and extra batteries, and also consider buying a camping lantern. Lanterns are great because they shed more light in all directions and stand on their own so that you can play cards or games at night.

Campfire Supplies
Matches stored in a plastic bag, dry firewood and dry newspapers are all you need for a campfire. 5.. Each campfire should have its own stone campfire spot and many also provide a cast-iron shelf for cooking on. In addition, there are other camping essentials, such as kitchen items, bottled food and water, toilet paper, first-aid kits, and books and games. All the above can enrich your outdoor camping.
A. Cards or games
B. Flashlights and lanterns
