Lesson 27
a wet night
一、TEXT
Late in the afternoon, the boys put up their tent in the middle of a field. As soon as
this was done, they cooked a meal over an open fire. They were all hungry and the
food smelled good. After a wonderful meal, they told stories and sang songs by the
campfire. But some time later it began to rain. The boys felt tired so they put out the
fire and crept into their tent. Their sleeping bags were warm and comfortable, so they
all slept soundly. In the middle of the night, two boys woke up and began shouting. The
tent was full of water! They all leapt out of their sleeping bags and hurried
outside. It was raining heavily and they found that a stream had formed in the field.
The stream wound its way across the field and then flowed right under their tent!
