My name is Bill. I took a trip to Ireland last weekend with my family. I didn't enjoy the trip because there were a lot of bad things. First, my brother forgot his passport (护照), and we missed our plane to Dublin in the morning. Mom wasn't very happy and blamed(责备) him. Luckily, there was a plane to Dublin in the afternoon and we got on that one.
When we took our things after getting off the plane, my dad's big bag wasn't there. The airline company (航空公司) said they would try to look for it. Then we took a bus to the camping place. We arrived late on Saturday evening, and we were very tired. We put up our tents in the evening, but in the middle of the night my tent fell down. I had to sleep in my sleeping bag.
The next morning, we went on a boat trip to an island (岛). The trip took us two hours. When we arrived, it started to rain, so we sat in a small restaurant all morning, and then we took a boat back. It wasn't much fun!
I was very happy to get home. I was tired then. Looking back at our trip, I think we should be more careful and check (检查) if all our things are good next time. What's more, we should check the weather.
a. They went to the camping place by bus.
b. The family stayed in a restaurant all morning.
c. The writer's brother couldn't find his passport.

What does running mean to you? For 21﹣year﹣old Wang Xueting and her father Wang Kequan, running is not only a kind of exercise but also a great experience(体验).
Wang Xueting runs with her father every day now. Wang Xueting's 51﹣year﹣old father was born with an eye problem and that made him lose hope for his life. As a running lover, Wang Xueting didn't give up and decided to help her father. But running wasn't easy for her father in the beginning. Wang Xueting first bought a second﹣hand treadmill(跑步机) online for her father, but he couldn't use it because of his eye problem.
Then she decided to run with her father. At first, they ran in their community(社区). Later they ran farther and more quickly. Her father slowly liked running. Because of it, he became healthier. "When I'm running, I feel like I'm not disabled (残疾的), " he said. Now running makes Wang Xueting and her father closer.
The story of Wang Xueting and her father moved many people after these people saw photos of their running on the Internet.
They joined a club﹣Running in the Dark for runners with eye problems. They are preparing (准备) to run a half marathon(马拉松赛跑). Wang Kequan also volunteered (自愿做) to help other disabled people. "My dad is my hero, " Wang Xueting said.
Glass frogs (玻璃蛙) are not really made of glass, but their skin is transparent, just like glass. In fact, the skin on the underside (底部) of a glass frog is so transparent that you can see the inside of its body. Without using an instrument (仪器), you can see the frog's heart and other organs(器官). Sometimes you can even see the food moving through the body.
These unusual﹣looking frogs can be difficult to find in the rain forests of Central and South America. The skin on their fronts and the green color of their backs often blend in (融入) with the leaves(叶子) they rest on. Also, they are just about the size of a coin.
These frogs have an interesting way of catching insects. Scientists believe the glass frog's back looks like the frog's eggs. If a fly (苍蝇) flies down for a meal on a frog's back, it will be in for a surprise when the glass frog opens its mouth.
The male glass frog protects (保护)real eggs. To keep away unwanted animals, a male glass frog will try to drive away other animals if they get too close. At first. the male frog makes loud noises to warn (警告) other animals to leave the area. If that does not work, the frog may fight with other animals until they give up and leave.
