K. Appendix
Up the Mountain We Go
 Last month, my family took a camping trip to the mountains. We went hiking
and bicycling every morning.
At night, we usually built a fire. I had to keep the fire burning. We could sit
around it and sing until midnight. One night, while my brother was telling us a ghost
story, we heard storage sound. We went out to see what it was. We saw a wild bear
eating our food supplies. The boar ran away and disappeared into the wood. We
laughed when we saw that the boar was afraid of us.
On the last day, a bad thing happened. My brother, Dani, tripped on a hidden
log and hurt his foot. We took him to the nearest hospital. The doctor said that the
injury was not too bad. He just had to go the doctor for more therapy in a couple of
days. We went home happily.
