It was raining pretty hard on Halloween, but that wasn't going to stop my little sister Kate and me from trick-or-treating. We decided to start at Miss Parson's house. Miss Parson was loved by us kids who lived nearby because she often shared her self-made cookies with us. We usually finished them in a second, especially when we were hungry after class. Sometimes, when we visited her or did something for her, she always gave us surprise.
Kate and I wondered what kinds of treats she'd offer. As we walked down the street, I held an umbrella, a bag for candy, and my sister's hand. Jack-o-Lanterns gave soft light along the street. Spider webs hung in all the windows. Parents who were dressed up like monsters(怪物) stood in doorways. After we had walked a few blocks, we were wet from head to toes, and I felt Kate was trembling with cold.
There was a light on at Miss Parson's house, but there were no ghosts, goblins (小妖精), or Jack-o-Lanterns. We climbed up the steps and saw Miss Parson through a window. She was drinking a cup of hot tea.
"Maybe she doesn't celebrate Halloween," Kate said with a sigh, disappointedly.
"Well, even if she doesn't, she usually likes it when we visit her," I said and knocked on the door.
Miss Parson seemed surprised when she opened it and saw our dressing. "Is today Halloween? " she asked. "I completely forgot. I am so sorry!"

Miss Parson rushed us into her house.

The next morning, a hot and sweet discussion about Miss Parson and Halloween spread among us kids.
Last weekend, I went to Mark's new house nearby a forest for a little get-together. After lunch when I was talking with him and his wife Cody, he asked me, "Hey Thoran, have you ever been to a secret spot?" Before I could even finish saying no, Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on. And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera, a fishing net and a plastic bucket(桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air, we three talked and laughed all the way.
"Hey!What are you guys doing?" Someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody's eyes immediately widened, and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them, getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down. I stopped to catch my breath and asked, "Who was that?"
Mark replied, "The most annoying neighbor ever. If he catches up with us, there's no telling what could happen. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him." We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. "Wow!Amazing!" I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue, looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

Looking around, we saw a boat floating by the shore.
……
"Help! Help! Help!" I was so frightened and cried for help.
