    Many children like to go hiking(徒步旅行). Why? Because they can be free from school and their homework. They can also enjoy beautiful nature, play with friends or family. If you want to have a happy hike, you must pay attention to the following:

    First, find a good day. Fine weather is the most important for a happy hike. If the weather is good, you can do a lot of things, like riding horses, going bike riding, swimming in the river, flying kites and playing ball games. 

    Second, go with the people you like. If you go hiking with the people you don't like, you won't have a great time. So, find the person who has the same interest as you. 

    Third, find the right place. Different people have different ideas about the places. For me, I would like to go to the beach for a hike. I like to walk along the beach, listening to the sound of the sea and watch children playing. 

    Lastly, think of what you need to prepare before going hiking. To have a nice hike, you must have comfortable shoes, enough water and some food. Now you can go hiking!

    1. (1) Why do children like to go hiking?
      A . Because they can learn more things. B . Because they can make more friends. C . Because they can enjoy beautiful nature. D . Because they don't need to stay at home
    2. (2) Which of the following is NOT the writer's idea about a happy hike?
