1In the United States people sometimes go camping for vacation． Instead of staying at modern hotels and restaurants，they live in the woods and do everything for themselves for a few days to relax．

When you are camping，you make all of your own food．It is rather like a large，many-day picnic．Barbeques(烤肉架) are very common while camping．You can bring meat and vegetables to the camp．To make a fire，you can find or bring your own wood and light it with a lighter(打火机)．

2Remember to put stones around the fire so that it won’t get too big and dangerous! When the fire is ready，you can cook food over it．Besides meat and vegetables，you can also cook marshmallows(果酱软糖) with the fire．

Children really like this activity at night．The whole family sit around the fire，eat marshmallows，and drink hot chocolate—especially when it is cold outside! Everyone can sing camping songs and dance together．

Camping is a fun activity for the family to do．Vacation does not have to mean going to visit faraway places，it could be as simple as setting up a tent in a nearby forest!

It’s been eight days since a 7.0-magnitude strong earthquake hit China’s Lushan Ya’an Sichuan Province.How the earthquake has affected one of Sichuan Province’s special residents（居民）—pandas.How are the animals living? And do they have enough food to eat?

There are more than 80 pandas living here at the Chengdu Panda Breeding Base（繁育基地）.The quake was felt strongly in Chengdu.Fortunately，all of the pandas here were out on the grounds when the earthquake hit，so they were very safe.

Several days have passed and the earthquake seems to have made no negative（不利的） impact on the pandas.These two baby pandas Chengshuang and Chengdui are playfighting with each other and climbing trees.When they climbed too high，the breeders have to rescue  them from the trees.

The quake zone is not only the home of these pandas，it’s also the source of their food.Fortunately，enough bamboo(竹子) has been stored away in five bamboo storehouses for the pandas，so there are no worries about food supplies.

Wu Kongju，Breeder，Chengdu Panda Breeding Base，said，“When the Wenchuan earthquake happened on May 12，2008，we were unprepared and had a shortage of bamboo.But we’ve been able to handle this earthquake event more smoothly.There are no problems with the food supply.”
