If you are hiking through wild places，the possibility of getting lost or injured becomes very real.You should think about carefully whether or not you are wise to head out on your own.Taking a partner along can have many advantages，especially if that partner is an experienced hiker.As  “two heads are better than one”，if you do get lost or run into difficulty，you’re much less likely to be panic if you have somebody with you to help solve the problem or even save your life.

62.

As a new hiker you should certainly follow clearly marked and well travelled routes.However，it won’t take you too long before you’re ready to take some more adventurous hiking and，at that point，there might be a lot of unknowns and you may need some help.For this reason you should always tell somebody where you’re going and when you will expect to return.

63.

It’s a good idea to always carry a basic survival kit (救生包) with you and your local hiking club will be able to give you excellent advice on the kinds of items you should take with you.The things we’re talking about here might include matches and a lighter，a first aid kit，a sharp knife and a flashlight.It’s also a good idea to have a map and compass with you and a fully­charged cell phone.

64.

      Water is clearly necessary because you may dehydrate (脱水) even over a short period of time on a hot day.Natural water sources may look clean but they can make you sick quickly.You  should remember，however，that water weighs about 8 pounds per gallon，so take enough but not too much.Also take along enough food with you.

65.

It’s all too easy when you get out into the wilderness  to  get  carried  away，with  your  own enthusiasm (热情) and try all kinds of things，but you will quickly realize it is stupid.Joining your local hiking club will allow you to get some advice and information on hiking，including such things as which are the best hiking boots to buy.

In America, when the eighth graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school.

Even though they’ve done this already in the middle school, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school.

One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.
