一次野生训练(A Wilderness Survival Program)
Saturday May 4, 2002 Cl oudy Li Ming and I took part in a wilderness survival progr am yeste rday,which has become an u nforgettable experience.
Yesterday mo rning we wore strong and comfortable shoes, carried backpacks with the necessities in them and went to the mountain. We climbed a hill. On the top we saw a direction mark, which told us where to go. Down the hill, we came to a river. There were no b oats b ut we had to cross it. Luckily, both of us had learned how to swim. But we shouldn't make our things in the backpacks wet. Seeing a p iece of board, I got an idea. We put our backpacks o n the board and swam in the water pushing the board. When getting to the other bank, with the compass we found north in which direction we walked half an hour. Finally, we arrived at the campsite. We set up a tent and made a bonfire.
The two of us spent t he night in the forest. We learne d to use knowledge gained in classroom training to solve problems. It was quite an ex perience for both of us, which I'll never forget for the rest of m y life.。
