i went to the countryside to spend my summer holidays this year. i liked green plants, clear rivers and lovely amimals there.i breathed the fresh air on the mountain and sometimes i went swimming in the river. i kept a diary every day.

　　i liked not only the scene of the countryside, but also the people there. i helped them to do farm work. i also helped the children in the neighbourhood with their lessons. the children were interested in english. they were good at reading and writing, but did not do well in listening and speaking. i helped them improve their listening and speaking. their parents thought highly of me. i realized that knowledge is greatly needed in the countryside.
