62. A Picnic in the Countryside
郊外野餐
Last week we went to the countryside to have a picnic. We bought some sandwiches, fruit and water to take with us for lunch.
上星期我们去城外野餐,我们为午饭准备了三明治、水果和水。
We started out quite early before there was too much traffic. After two hours of driving, we came to a nice place. It was at the foot of a hill and near a river, with some large trees beside it. As it was a very hot day, we parked the car under a big tree and went for a swim in the river.
我们一大早就启程,以便避开交通高峰时间。开车两小时,我们来到一个依山傍水、环境优美的地方,河边有几棵大树。天气很热,我们把车停在树下就去游泳,河水清澈凉爽。
The water was refreshing. After having a swim we had lunch in the cool shade under the trees. Then we went for a walk. We saw some beautiful birds and butterflies. After walking for about an hour we returned to the car. However, we couldn't get the car to start.
游泳后我们在树阴下吃午饭,然后去散步。我们看到一些鲜花和蝴蝶。一个小时后我们回到车里,然而车子发动不起来了。
Finally we had to push the car to the road and wait for help. Of course, The car breaking down spoilt our picnic in the end!
我们只好把车推到大路旁等待救助。坏了的汽车最终破坏了我们的野餐。
