My summer vacation

I went to the countryside to spend my summer holidays this year. I liked green plants, clear rivers and lovely animals there. I breathed the fresh air on the mountain and sometimes I went swimming in the river. I kept a diary every day.

I liked not only the scene of the countryside, but also the people there. I helped them to do farm work. I also helped the children in the neighborhood with their lessons. The children were interested in English. They were good at reading and writing, but did not do well in listening and speaking. I helped them improve their listening and speaking. Their parents thought highly of me. I realized that knowledge is greatly needed in the countryside.

今年我去农村过暑假。我喜欢那儿绿油油的植物，清澈的小河和可爱的动物。我在山上呼吸新鲜的空气，有时在河里游泳。我每天记日记。

我不仅喜欢那里的景色，而且喜欢那里的人。我帮他们干农活，帮助邻家的孩子复习功课。孩子们对英语很感兴趣，他们在读、写方面很好，但听、说不好。我帮助他们提高听、说能力，他们的父母高度赞扬了我。我意识到农村确实需要知识。
