A
In
the
United
States,
people
like
going
camping
for
vacation.
They
do
everything
for
themselves to relax in the woods
instead of staying at a modern hotel or a
restaurant. They enjoy
themselves far
away from the noisy cities for a few days.
What should you prepare if you want to
go camping like them? When you are camping, you
make all of your own food.
Barbeques(
烧烤架
) are very
necessary while camping. You can bring
bread, drinks, meat and vegetables to
camp. You

d better bring
some wood and a lighter(
打火机
)
to
make
a
fire.
Remember
to
put
stones
around
the
fire
to
make
sure
it
won

get
too
big
and
dangerous. When the fire
is ready, you can cook food over it.
Children
really
like
this
activity
at
night.
The
whole
family
sit
around
the
fire,
eat
their
favorite
food.
Certainly
they
can
sing
songs
and
dance
together.
What
a
pleasant
and
exciting
moment.
Camping is a fun activity for the
family to do. Vacation does not have to mean going
to visit a
