21、   I was on a vacation on Star Island. But things were different this year. I was in a wheelchair. My legs couldn’t move because of a rock—climbing accident last summer. Angry and frustrated (沮丧) to walk or climb, I stayed in my room until my grandma said, “Find another topic, Ben.” I wheeled off to finish a photography project for school. In fact, I’d enjoy it if I wasn’t so unhappy.

Near the hotel, I met an older couple, Susan and Mark. They showed me how to use their kayak (皮划艇) and helped to let me borrow it. They kindly lifted me in and kept their eyes on me as I tried to paddle toward the headland. I experienced a sense of excitement. I felt one with the water. It was almost the same feeling I used to have while I was climbing a rock on the island. This was the same island, but from the water it seemed new. I was sorry that I had left my camera back on my wheelchair with Susan. Mark said she would take photos for us. Then he started down to the beach. I paddle toward him, keeping the boat across the water as Susan suggested. At last, Mark and Susan easily helped me into the wheelchair.

On the following days, I practiced with Mark or Susan. I took my camera out on a calm day and took pictures of rocks and birds. When I got home, I went right to my computer. I hoped that I would find something to use to finish the project. For the first photo, it seemed empty but an empty wheelchair. Then I found the kayak on the water. It really was me, moving on with the spirit flying away from the wheelchair.

The island had worked on my spirit! I had forgotten about the accident and I am happy again.

22、It’s getting hotter and hotter outside. Summer is already here! Summer means high temperature, more outdoor activities and all kinds of fruit and vegetables. How can we stay fit in this exciting season? Here are some good suggestions.

Eat and drink properly

What is healthy to eat in summer? Fresh and light food. Fish can be a good choice. It can keep your body energetic and help fight against the burning sun. Another good choice is colorful fruit and vegetables.

They not only lease our eyes, but are full of healthy chemicals (化学物质). Tomatoes can help protect your skin against sun burn. Blue berries are good for your brain and eyes. The more color, the better!

With all those summer time activities you will be thirsty. What to drink? Water. Water has no calories (卡路里) and is the perfect drink to stop your thirst (口渴). Try not to drink too many energy drinks, sports drinks and soda drinks which have lots of sugar and caffeine (咖啡因) in them.

Stay active and cool

Summer is a great season to enjoy outdoor activities and play. It’s also a good time to lose weight. If you are lucky enough to be near a body of water, try water sports like swimming, surfing, water skiing and so on. These sports keep you cool and active at the same time. You’ll have no problem beating the heat and keeping fit as well.

Be careful of the sunshine

Summer allows us more chances to get outside, but it also means more possibilities to get burnt by the sunshine. If you are going outside, keep away from the sun when it’s the strongest—usually between 11 am and 3 pm. If you have to stay in the sun for along time, sunscreen (防晒霜), a big hat and a long-sleeve jacket will be necessary.
