Many kids go camping during the summer. Usually, they start camp (露营) in the morning and go home in the afternoon. That is called day camp. Nowadays, another kind of camp, sleep-away camp, is becoming popular with kids. It's called sleep-away camp because they stay overnight (过夜) there. It's a kind of vacation for kids, but without their parents. Kids usually spend a week in attending sleep-away camp. It offers much more excitement because they'll be there all day and night, eating their meals, playing games and communicating with others. They'll sleep in a cabin (小屋) with the other kids attending the camp. They have to share the bathroom with the other kids.

If you go to a sleep-away camp for the first time, you'll feel excited and maybe a little nervous. Be proud of yourself for being old enough to go camping. It is a chance to try new things. It's also a chance to learn about being independent. Are you looking forward to attending such a camp in your summer vacation?

This summer holiday I go to Taiwan with my parents. Taiwan is really beautiful! The weather is good. The sea is around Taiwan so it is always warm and humid (湿的). In the north, it’s cold in winter, but in the south, it’s still warm in winter and you can enjoy the sunshine (阳光) every day. The typhoon (台风) season is from June to October. There are many mountains in Taiwan. Ali Mountain is very famous. We go to Ali Mountain one afternoon. There are many trees in the forest there. They are very tall and many of them are really old.

Sun Moon Lake is also famous in Taiwan. In the lake we see many kinds of fishes.

We go to the beach and go shopping. There are many kinds of foods in the small towns near the sea.

Taiwan is a beautiful island of China, and I love it!
