Our family went to the Yellow Stone National Park last summer vacation. Our son, Tom, wanted to see bears there. And what a breathtaking experience (经历) it was!

When we got there, we put up our tent and went to explore (探险). As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out. And then we saw a bear go into our tent.

Tom wanted his father to chase (追赶) it away. His father said, "No. It's dangerous to chase a bear. And don't let it chase you." Susie said, "What shall we do? Maybe we should climb up a tree." Tom said, "No. We have to get it out of there. It might (可能) go to sleep in our tent. " "Maybe we could make it leave if we put some honey outside for it to eat," Susie suggested (建议). Then I said, "How are you going to get the honey? It's in the tent. " We watched the bear go into the tent and heard it upset (翻倒；弄翻) everything inside. "It's foolish (愚蠢的) of us to try to chase it away," said my husband (丈夫). "Leave it alone and wait for it to come out." We waited, but the bear stayed inside. We had to sleep in the car that night.

Dear Chairperson

Last week I heard a report on wild animals. To protect them, I would like to join the Animal Protection Society.

Yours sincerely

Lord Ye's Love of Dragons

Long ago, there was a person. People c him Lord Ye（叶公）. It was said that Lord Ye liked dragons very much. E in his room was about dragons. The walls of his house had dragon p. The doors and windows were carved（雕刻）with them.

'I love dragons best,' Lord Ye always said to o people. When the real dragon in heaven（天堂）heard this, he f very happy. 'Lord Ye loves dragons so much. I should v him and thank him,' said the real dragon. So he f to Lord Ye's house. He put his head into Lord Ye's window and shouted, 'Lord Ye, are you in?'

You might think Lord Ye was very h to see a real dragon. But, in fact, when he saw the real dragon, he was very frightened and ran a as fast as he could.

From then on, people knew that Lord Ye o loved pictures of dragons, but not real dragons.
