12．Day 1
　　Now I'm here! My mom sent me here as she said I had nothing to do at home during the summer holidays. My dad worried that I might have trouble sleeping away from home. But I decided to have a try.
　　I lived in a room with a girl called Catherine. I asked her why she joined this camp. She said that she wanted to give herself a break from the boring school life, and she heard about this camp at school and thought it would be interesting. She didn't worry about herself much. Since she believed that our instructor (指导员) would look after us. That's why she is here. Looking at her, I hope we could become good friends.
*******************************************************************
Day2
　　The instructor woke us up at 6 o'clock and asked us to get together on the playground in 15 minutes. Catherine and I rushed to get out of bed and wash up. When we got to the playground in time, several kids were standing in line already. Suddenly the fire bell rang. We were scared and just then the instructor appeared. She told us that what we heard was a false alarm and we needed to keep calm. At about 6:30. we left the camp and took a long walk near a lake. We were all very tired. When we went back to the camp, it was already 12 o'clock. In the dining hall, there was some bread on the table. Everyone ran to reach for it. I think it was the most delicious lunch I had ever had.

13．　　Emmitt followed his father to Row Eleven, Seats Thirteen and Fourteen. He was so busy taking in the sights at the baseball stadium (体育场) that he wasn't watching where he was going. He nearly walked into his father's back. "Sorry, Dad."
　　His father laughed, "No problem. Which seat do you want?"
　　Emmitt looked at the number thirteen on the back of the seat. Thirteen was an unlucky number, and he was going to need some luck if he was going to catch a foul ball (界外球). "I'll take fourteen."
　　As the players took the field, Emmitt started to take pictures. The game was great. But it was missing one thing. A foul ball. Emmitt wanted nothing more than to catch a foul ball. He was hoping he might even get an autograph (签名) or two after the game, and what better thing to get autographed than a foul ball?
　　Now it was his favorite player Harry "the Hammer Watson". Emmitt stood up and cheered for him. Harry bat (击打) the baseball and Emmitt watched the ball fly into the air. .. right towards Emmitt!He couldn't believe it. He was going to catch a foul ball hit by Harry Watson.
　　"Daddy!" the little girl sitting next to Emmitt cried. "The ball!Catch it!" Emmitt saw the huge smile on the girl's face. She wanted the ball.
　　He turned his back to the ball just as it reached his seat. Emmitt leaned (倾斜) toward his dad and the ball dropped into the hands of the little girl's father.
　　"Why did you do that?Emmitt's father asked. Do you realize who hit that ball?
　　"Yeah, but look." Emmitt nodded to the little girl. She was hugging the ball.
　　"My first game and I got a foul ball," she said.
　　"I'm proud of you, Emmitt," his dad said, "That was a nice thing to do."
　　Emmitt smiled as he watched the little girl. He didn't get his foul ball, but he felt as good as if he had.

15．　　For some students, getting better grades can seem like an impossible task sometimes. With the challenges (挑战) of school, just paying attention in class or studying hard isn't always enough. But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades?For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy. Research suggests that a person who likes doing activities can improve their grades.
　　Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies, but also exercising their brains (大脑). In turn, they can be able to improve their grades at school.
　　In the most recent study, researchers found that when children played for half an hour each day, they were better at organizing (组织) their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally "difficult" subjects, such as maths.
　　What does this mean for children who aren't active?Researchers think that if kids don't get enough activities, they are going to be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance.
　　In the research experiment, a group of children skipped with ropes (跳绳), played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises. Another group of children didn't do any activities. They took part in testing both before experiment and after the experiment. Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills. Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity.
　　All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull (迟钝的) boy, but will also negatively (消极地) affect his grades in school, according to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics.
　　Parents complain (抱怨) children today are actually less active and they always worry about their grades. Dr. Belton, an expert, said, "If you'd like to see your kids do better in school, have them close their books, set down their pencils and go outside to play."

16．　　Do you often e-mail? Do you like chatting online? Are you interested in computer science? Let me tell you something about some computer science.
　　Mails, games, music, news, chatting rooms and shopping! The Internet is part of our life today. It's easy to get onto the Internet. The only thing we need to do is to use a modem (调制解调器) which is used for connecting a computer to a telephone line. The Internet is changing and growing all the time. More and more people have computers and use the Internet. Using the Internet means surfing the World Wide Web (That's the "WWW" you always hear about). The Internet has a large number of websites. They are the places where you go to get information and do things.
　　Where do these websites come from? They are made by web designers. What happens when you click on a word or a picture?You are sent to another page. It's all because of the web designers. Web designers do a lot of work by using a computer programming (程序编制) language.
　　Is web design all about computer programming?No, it's about making something new. Web designers must imagine a lot when they are making a website.It must look good and be fun to use. A big part of web design is art. They choose the best pictures and colors to make the website look good. They also write the things that you see on the website. An important part of their job is to share ideas with the website manager about how to design the website well.
