Going to high school is my first time to leave home. I have to live in school from Monday to Friday. I like to stay away from my parents for some time, because I can make my own choice and be free to go anywhere. My friends and I like to spend the weekend in the countryside that near the city we live. It is the short travel that I can not only appreciate the beautiful scenery, but also learn to be independent. The things that nature teaches me are a lot. I can see from the color of the cloud to predict the weather and the sound of of animals have different meanings. All of these are hard to know from the books. I have my own thinking from these trips, and the way to take care of myself helps me to grow up.
　　上高中是我第一次離開家,我必須住在學校，從星期一到星期五。我喜歡離開父母一段時間,因為我可以自己做決定,隨便去任何地方。我的朋友們和我喜歡在我們生活的城市附近的鄉鎮去度過周末。短暫的旅行,我不僅可以欣賞美麗的風景,同時也學會獨立。自然教會我很多的東西。我能從云的顏色來預測天氣和動物的聲音有不同的含義。這些都是很難從書本學到。從這些旅行中,我有了自己的思考方式，也學會了照顧自己，這讓我成長。
