No more waking up early, no more homework, and two whole months to play and have fun. My parents had promised we could go on a big trip this year since I did so well in school. I could hardly wait!The first week of summer, I just lazed around the house watching TV, playing video games, and annoying my little sister. My dad still had to go to work, but my mom was home to make sure we didn't get into too much trouble. We went to the pool almost every day since it was so hot out.Finally, it was time for our big vacation! We packed our suitcases and headed to the airport bright and early one Monday morning. I had never been on a plane before, so I was a little nervous but also really excited. The plane was huge inside with lots of tiny windows to look out. I got the window seat, which made me happy.After a few hours in the air, the captain announced we would be landing soon in California! I had never been to California before. When we landed and walked outside, it was warm and sunny, but not too hot like back home. We took a shuttle to our hotel right on the beach in a place called Santa Monica. Our room had an ocean view and I could see the famous Santa Monica Pier from our window. I couldn't wait to go explore!The next day, we walked down to the pier and rode the big ferris wheel and roller coaster. I had so much fun! We also went to the beach and I played in the waves and built sandcastles. That night we went to the Third Street Promenade which had street performers, shops, and restaurants. We ate the most delicious pizza at one of the outdoor cafes. I had never had pizza that good before!A few days later, we drove down the coast to San Diego. We visited the world-famous San Diego Zoo, which had pandas, polar bears, gorillas, and every animal you can imagine! My favorite was watching the monkey show where the monkeys did funny tricks. We also went to SeaWorld and I got to pet a dolphin. We saw Shamu the killer whale do big splashy jumps during the whale show.My mom's cousin lives in Los Angeles, so we went to visit her next. She took us to see the Hollywood Walk of Fame where you can see handprints from all the big movie stars. We also drove all the way up to the Griffith Observatory which had an amazing view of the whole city and the famous Hollywood sign. I felt like I was in a movie myself!On our last days in California, we drove up the coast to the beach town of Santa Barbara. It was such a pretty area with the mountains right by the ocean. We walked around the downtown area full of cute shops and ate delicious seafood on an outdoor patio. We also visited a место called the Old Mission which had beautiful old buildings and gardens. It felt like going back in time.Way too soon, it was time to head back home. I was really sad for our vacation to be over. We had so much fun exploring California - seeing the ocean, going to the theme parks, and experiencing a different part of the country. It will be a vacation I'll never forget!Now that I'm back, summer still isn't over yet which is lucky for me. I've been spending my days riding my bike, swimming at the local pool, having sleepovers with friends, and driving my parents crazy. School will be starting again before I know it, soI'm trying to soak up every last bit of summer freedom. Maybe my parents will take us on another vacation again next year if I get good grades! A kid can dream, right?篇2My Wonderful Summer VacationSummer vacation is the best time of the year! No school, no homework, just weeks and weeks of fun and freedom. This summer was extra special because my family went on an amazing trip to the beach. I'm going to tell you all about it!We left bright and early one Saturday morning. Mom packed a huge cooler full of sandwiches, snacks, and drinks for the drive. Dad loaded up the car with our suitcases, beach toys, boogie boards, and everything else we might need. My little brother Timmy and I could barely contain our excitement!After what felt like forever in the car, we finally arrived at the beach house we had rented for the week. It was a cute little blue house just a few blocks away from the ocean. As soon as we walked in, you could smell the salty sea air. Timmy and I raced to claim the bedrooms while Mom and Dad got everything unpacked.Later that afternoon, we went to the beach for the first time. The sand was warm between my toes and the ocean looked so big and blue. Timmy and I spent hours playing in the waves and making sand castles. We found all kinds of cool shells too. Every night after the beach we had to take a bath to wash off all the sand!On the second day, we went mini golfing at a coolpirate-themed course. There were waterfalls, caves, and even a replica pirate ship! My putting skills aren't the greatest so the obstacles made it extra challenging. Timmy did better than me, as usual. We got a kick out of the silly pirate jokes and soundtrack playing throughout the course.One of my favorite parts of the trip was visiting the aquarium. They had an amazing walk-through tunnel where you could see sharks, rays, and all sorts of fish swimming just feet away. I was a little scared at first but it was so amazing! We also got to pet some sting rays and learned a ton of facts about ocean creatures from the guides.Another day we rented beach cruiser bicycles and rode for miles along the waterfront trail. The salty air felt so refreshing as we rode. We stopped for ice cream at a little shop right on the beach. After burning all those calories biking, I deserved adouble scoop cone! Chocolate and strawberry - my favorite combo.The sunsets at the beach were magical. Just before dusk each night, we'd bundle up in our beach towels and watch the sky turn brilliant shades of pink, purple, and orange. Sometimes we'd see dolphins jumping in the waves as the sun slipped below the horizon. Those moments made me feel so small but in an amazing way.Towards the end of our stay, there was a night when we could see a meteor shower perfectly from the beach. Timmy and I bundled up in sleeping bags and set up camp right on the sand to watch the shooting stars. We must have seen dozens of them streaking across the sky! Every time we saw one we'd yell "Shooting star!" and make a wish. I lost count of how many wishes I made.On our very last day, we went on a dolphin watching cruise. The tour guide said we were almost guaranteed to spot some since they hung around the area. About halfway through the cruise, we hit the jackpot - hundreds of dolphins started swimming and leaping alongside the boat! We could hear them chattering away as they gracefully arced out of the water. Seeing them swim freely in their natural habitat was just beautiful.After a whirlwind week of fun in the sun, it was time to pack up and head home. I was so sad to leave but also full of incredible memories. Timmy and I slept like logs in the car ride back, sunburned but happy kids.Now that I'm back at school, whenever I daydream during class, I picture myself back on that beach. I can almost feel the warm sand and taste the salty sea breeze again. Playing in the ocean waves, riding bikes with my family, watching the sunset...those simple pleasures brought me so much joy.Summer may be over, but I have a lifetime of wonderful memories from this trip. I'm already dreaming about where we might vacation next summer. A national park? City sights? Forest cabin? Wherever we go, I know more adventures and unforgettable family moments await. I feel so lucky to have parents who take us on journeys to explore the amazing world around us.For now, I'll just have to be patient and keep working hard at school. Maybe if I get straight A's, Mom and Dad will take us somewhere extra special next summer! A kid can dream, right? I'm holding onto that motivation as I tackle my Math homework and English essays. After this taste of summer bliss, I have a tonof great writing inspiration about sun, sand, and making magical memories.篇3My Trip to the BeachLast summer, my family and I went on a trip to the beach. I was so excited because I love the beach! We packed up the car with our suitcases, beach toys, towels, and snacks for the drive. It took us three hours to get to the beach town where we were staying.When we arrived, I could smell the salty air and hear the waves crashing against the shore. We checked into our hotel room and I immediately wanted to go play in the sand. Mom said we had to unpack first and put on our swimsuits. I quickly threw my clothes into the dresser drawers so we could hurry up and go!Finally, we made it out to the beach. The sand was so hot that it burned my feet a little at first. I ran straight for the water and stuck my toes in - it was freezing cold! But after adjusting, it felt wonderful. The waves would rush up and then pull back, leaving little trails in the sand. I spent hours playing in the waves,letting them crash into me, and burying my brother up to his neck in the sand.In the late afternoon, we built a giant sandcastle. We used buckets to make turrets and molded stairs and windows out of the wet sand. I found some sticks and seaweed to decorate it. Just as we were finishing, a huge wave came up and knocked part of it down! We weren't too sad though because we had so much fun building it together.That evening, we had a bonfire and roasted marshmallows. I love the way they get all gooey inside their crispy outer shell. We gazed up at the stars which looked so bright and countless out there away from the city lights. Exhausted, we went to bed early, and I fell asleep to the soothing sound of the waves outside our room.The next day, we woke up early to watch the sunrise over the ocean. The sky turned crimson and golden hues as the sun peeked up from the horizon. What a incredible sight! We had a breakfast picnic on the beach of sandwiches, fruit, and juice boxes.Later, we played some beach games like frisbee, paddleball, and burying each other in the sand again. I practiced skipping rocks and seeing how far I could throw them into the water. Forlunch, we had fresh-caught fish, shrimp, fries and lemonade at a beachside restaurant with a great view.In the afternoon, we went exploring and hiking along some rocky cliffs and paths with beautiful views of the crashing waves below. We saw gulls, crabs, starfish, and other marine creatures in the tide pools. I'll never forget the powerful scent of the sea air.Our final night, we went to the busy boardwalk area which was full of game booths, rides, music, food vendors, and tons of people. We went on the ferris wheel and roller coaster, which was a little scary but so fun! We ate cotton candy, caramel apples, and I tried my first funnel cake which was absolutely delicious. We played games and won a big stuffed teddy bear for me.I was so sad when it was time to leave the next morning. I had the best time ever and made so many incredible memories. I will never forget the wonderful sights, smells, and sounds of the beach. I really hope we can go back again next summer! I already can't wait.篇4My Exciting Summer VacationHello, my name is Emma, and I'm 10 years old. I just started the 5th grade, and my teacher asked us to write about what we did during our summer vacation. I had the most amazing summer ever, and I can't wait to share my adventures with you!It all began on the last day of school when my mom and dad told me we were going on a big trip. They said we were going to drive across the country and visit some of the most beautiful national parks in the United States. I was so excited I could hardly sleep the night before we left!Our first stop was the Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. When we arrived, I couldn't believe my eyes. The canyon was so huge and deep, and the colors of the rocks were breathtaking. We went on a hike along the rim trail, and our guide taught us all about the geology and history of the canyon. Did you know it took millions of years for the Colorado River to carve out that massive gorge?After a few days at the Grand Canyon, we drove to Zion National Park in Utah. This park was like something out of a fairy tale, with towering red and white sandstone cliffs and narrow canyons. We went on a guided horseback ride through the park, and I got to see some of the most stunning rock formations upclose. My favorite was the one called "The Narrows" – a narrow canyon with walls over 1,000 feet tall!Next, we visited Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. This place was like a real-life science museum, with geysers, hot springs, and bubbling mud pots everywhere. We saw Old Faithful, the famous geyser that erupts every 90 minutes or so, sending a huge plume of hot water and steam into the air. We also went on a wildlife watching tour and saw bison, elk, and even a grizzly bear from a safe distance!Our final stop was Glacier National Park in Montana. This park was absolutely breathtaking, with towering mountain peaks, crystal-clear lakes, and massive glaciers. We went on a guided hike to a place called the Grinnell Glacier Overlook, and the views were simply stunning. Our guide told us that many of the glaciers in the park are melting due to climate change, which made me feel sad. I hope we can do something to protect these amazing natural wonders.In between our visits to the national parks, we stopped at some really cool places along the way. We visited Mount Rushmore in South Dakota and saw the huge carved faces of four former presidents. We also went to the Crazy HorseMemorial, a massive sculpture carved into the side of a mountain that honors the famous Native American leader.One of my favorite stops was in Wall, South Dakota, where we visited the quirky and fun Wall Drug Store. This place was like a wild west town straight out of a movie, with all kinds of cool shops and attractions. We got to see a animatronic cowboy show, and I even got to pan for real gold!Throughout our trip, we stayed in some really fun places, like rustic cabins, tepees, and even a retro Airstream trailer. We roasted marshmallows over campfires, told spooky stories, and spent our nights gazing up at the incredibly starry skies.Overall, this was the best summer vacation ever. I got to see so many amazing natural wonders and learn so much about the history and culture of our country. I made memories that will last a lifetime, and I can't wait to go on another adventure like this someday.Thank you for reading about my exciting summer vacation. I hope you enjoyed hearing about all the cool places I visited and the fun things I did. Maybe you can plan a similar trip with your family someday! Until next time, happy trails!篇5Title: My Unforgettable Summer VacationIt was the last day of school before the summer holidays, and I couldn't wait to go home and start my vacation. I had so many plans for the summer – playing outside with my friends, going on trips with my family, and of course, not having to worry about homework or exams for a while!The first few days of the holidays were spent lazing around at home, watching TV, and playing video games. But soon, I started to get bored. That's when my mom suggested that we go on a family trip to the countryside. She said it would be a great opportunity for me to experience life away from the city and get some fresh air.At first, I wasn't too excited about the idea. I mean, what's so great about the countryside? But my mom insisted, and before I knew it, we were packing our bags and getting ready for the trip.We left early one morning and drove for a couple of hours until we reached a small village nestled in the heart of the countryside. The first thing that struck me was how quiet and peaceful it was. There were no honking cars or noisy construction sites like back home. Instead, all I could hear were the chirping of birds and the gentle rustling of leaves in the breeze.We were staying at a quaint little farmhouse owned by my aunt and uncle. As soon as we arrived, they greeted us with warm hugs and showed us around their property. They had a big vegetable garden, a small orchard, and even a few chickens and a goat. I had never seen anything like it before!The next few days were filled with all sorts of new experiences for me. In the mornings, my uncle would take me to the garden, and we would water the plants and pick fresh vegetables for our meals. It was so much fun getting my hands dirty and learning about where our food comes from.In the afternoons, we would often go on long walks through the nearby fields and forests. My aunt and uncle would point out different kinds of plants and animals, and I was amazed by the variety of life that existed in the countryside. Back home, the only wildlife I ever saw were pigeons and squirrels.One of my favorite memories from the trip was when my uncle took me fishing at a nearby pond. I had never been fishing before, but he patiently taught me how to bait the hook and cast the line. After a few failed attempts, I finally caught my first fish –a tiny little thing, but I was so proud of myself!In the evenings, we would sit around a campfire and roast marshmallows while my aunt and uncle told us stories abouttheir childhood in the countryside. It was so cozy and peaceful, and I loved listening to their tales of adventure and mischief.As the days went by, I found myself becoming more and more attached to the simple, peaceful way of life in the countryside. I loved waking up to the sound of roosters crowing and the smell of freshly baked bread wafting in from the kitchen.I loved spending time outdoors, exploring the natural world and learning about the plants and animals that lived there.Before I knew it, our vacation was coming to an end, and it was time to head back home. As we drove away from the farmhouse, I felt a twinge of sadness. I was going to miss the fresh air, the wide-open spaces, and the slower pace of life in the countryside.But more than anything, I was grateful for the experience. It had opened my eyes to a whole new world, one that I had never really appreciated before. I realized that there was so much more to life than just sitting in front of a screen all day, and that sometimes, the simplest things can be the most rewarding.As we pulled into our driveway back in the city, I made a silent promise to myself that I would never forget the lessons I had learned during that unforgettable summer vacation in thecountryside. And who knows, maybe one day I'll even get to live that way permanently.篇6New Concept English - Writing Stories and LettersHi there! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. I love learning English and my favorite part is when we get to write stories and letters. Mrs. Roberts, my English teacher, just taught us all about it in New Concept English Book 2 Lesson 29. Let me tell you what I learned!Writing StoriesOne of the best things we can write is stories. Mrs. Roberts says stories allow us to use our creativity and imagination. When writing a story, we first need to decide what it will be about - the plot. Will it be about a brave knight rescuing a princess? Or maybe about a group of friends going on an awesome adventure? The possibilities are endless!Once we have the plot idea, we need characters. Characters are the people, animals or creatures that the story is about. My favorite characters to write about are talking animals becausethey can do funny human things. Like a dog that goes to school or a cat that bakes cookies!After the plot and characters, we need to decide the setting. The setting is where and when the story takes place. My stories usually happen in magical forests or on beaches with purple sand. Using descriptive words to paint a picture of the setting with your words is important.Then it's time to actually write the story! We start with an introduction that sets up the characters and setting. Then we have the events that make up the plot happening one after another. There should be a problem or obstacle that the characters have to overcome. Finally, there is the conclusion where the problem is resolved and we describe how it all ended.Mrs. Roberts taught us some tips for good story writing:Use interesting words to describe things, not boring onesWrite dialogue (the conversations between characters) to make it feel more realDon't give away the ending too soon - have some surprises!Check your spelling and grammarI love writing stories because you can make literally anything happen. A dog can fly, a cat can talk, a boy can shrink down tiny. Nothing is off limits in your imagination!Writing LettersAnother main thing we learn about in Lesson 29 is how to properly write letters. Letters can be to friends, family members, or even authors or famous people you admire. There are two main types - informal letters to people you know well, and formal letters which are more proper and professional.For informal letters, you start with the date at the top. Then a greeting like "Dear Mom" or "Hi Frankie". The body is where you write your message and update them on what's happening in your life. You can write it in a very casual, conversational style like you're talking to them. At the end you have a sign off like "Love" or "Your friend".Formal letters have some extra parts. At the very top you put your address and contact information. Below the date you put the person's name and address you're writing to. Instead of "Dear" you say "Mr/Ms/Mrs" with their last name. The body has to be written politely and properly with no slang or abbreviations. At the very end you sign off formally with "Sincerely, Your name".Here are some good tips for writing letters from Mrs. Roberts:If it's a reply letter, refer to what the previous letter saidAsk questions so the person can respondFor formal letters, be clear and get to the point quicklyShare interesting news, stories and updatesCheck for errors before sending!I really enjoy writing all kinds of letters. It allows me to keep in touch with my grandparents, friends from my old school, or even write to companies if I really like their products. Getting mail is the best!Well, that's pretty much everything I learned about writing stories and letters in Lesson 29. Even though I'm still a kid, I feel like a real author when I write my own creative works. Maybe one day I'll grow up and publish books or write for magazines. But for now, I'll just keep practicing my English writing skills and having fun with it. Thanks for reading!。

Listen and answer
Does Captain Fawcett think any trip is too dangerous? Yes, he does. He once refused to fly to Rockall.
Text
Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service. The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'. This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers. The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field. Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains. Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places. Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park. Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman. The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean, but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.
