Tissa was a little boy. He was only ten years old. But he liked travelling. Tissa was studying in a primary school. Last week he went on a school trip with his teachers and classmates.

They spent one hour on the bus and finally got to the hill. They found a valley(山谷) full of roses. There were many kinds of roses. Some were red. Some were white. Some were black. They were very beautiful. Many bees and butterflies were flying from one rose to another. Tissa and his friends tried to catch some butterflies, but they failed to do so.
