Anna ran across the front yard and around into the back as Brisky,her dog,chased her."Come on,boy!”
When she got to the backyard she noticed something in the fence at the far end of the yard."Oh,no!”Anna grabbed Brisky's collar and led him to the house."Mom!Mom!"
Mom raced onto the back porch."What's wrong?"
＂There's a fawn(小鹿）trapped in the back fence.We've got to help it!"
Mom grabbed Brisky."You have to stay in the house,boy.You could accidentally hurt the fawn."She put him inside and closed the door."Come on,honey,"said Mom.
Anna and Mom sped to the back fence.Mom looked to see if she could get the fawn loose."It's a female fawn.I don't know why she's alone or how on earth she got her leg stuck in between the planks(旱板）。We'll need help.You stay with her,I'll go call animal rescue."
Anna sat next to the fawn."It'll be okay.Don't be scared."She kept talking to the fawn until help came.She was relieved to see Mom leading the rescuer through the yard.
Anna rushed to meet them."It's a fawn.She's stuck in the fence.Can you help her?"gasped Anna.
＂Well,howdy.I'm Randy.Let me take a look.I need to know what we're dealing with."Randy examined the fawn then smiled at Anna."We'll have her out of there in just a bit.I have to go to my truck to get some tools.I'll be right back.”
Anna walked with Randy."Will the fawn be okay?How come she's not with her mother?Can we keep her?”
Randy scratched his head."Okay,let's go one at a time.The fawn will be fine.She was probably waiting in hiding for her mother to come back and got frightened.Luckily, nothing was after her."He opened his truck and took a hammer and some other tools out of a toolbox.
“What about my last question?Can we keep her?"

If your family or group of friends loves to bike,then a bike trip makes a perfect vacation. 1.Because you move more slowly on a bike,you have a chance to really sink into your environment,observing wildlife and views that you might miss otherwise.
As you plan your trip,the biggest decision to make is how far you'd like to travel each day.If you have unskilled bikers or kids in your group,you'll probably all be happiest if you keep your mileage goals fairly modest.2.
3. You can book campsites ahead of time at campgrounds along the way, and ride into camp as late as you like. Keep in mind that some camping equipment is heavy. Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads(充气垫）for under your sleeping bag.Dehydrated food also helps keep the weight down.
If you're going to be traveling on trails at all,you'll want to ride a mountain bike during your trip.On the other hand,if your whole route is wholly along roads,you can ride a lighter-weight street bike.Or,you can put heavier-weight tires on a street bike.4.
Biking is a great way to see the country,and if you have a lot of time,you can cover quite a bit of distance.Over the course of a multi- week trip,you'll get stronger and you'll be able to go further in one day.5. If your trip is a long one,you might want to rest a day or two early in your travels to give your body some rest.
A.An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.
B.Check in with your local bike shop for suggestions on tire weight.
C.Taking a bike trip is not only convenient but also beneficial to our health.
D.Be sure to bring the contact information and directions for each campground.
E.But a group of more experienced bikers can make more serious mileage goals.
F.Seeing the world from the seat of a bike is a wonderful way to experience new places.
G.Bear in mind, though, that early in the trip you'll start every day feeling tired from the day before.
