Our family went to the Yellow Stone National Park last summer vacation. Our son, Tom, wanted to see bears there. And what an experience (经历) it was!
When we got there ,we put up our tent and went to explore(探险). As we returned, we heard our daughter Susie cry out. And then we saw a bear go into our camp.
Tom wanted his father to chase(追赶,驱赶) him away. His father said, “No, it’s dangerous to chase a bear. And don’t let him chase you.” Susie said, “What should we do? Maybe we should climb a tree.” Tom said,” No, we have to get him out of there. He might go to sleep in our tent.” “Maybe we could make him leave if we put some honey outside for him to eat.” Susie suggested(建议). Then I said, “How are you going to get the honey? It’s in the tent.”
We watched the bear go into the tent and heard him upset(翻倒,弄翻) everything inside. “It’s foolish for us to try to chase him away.” said my husband, “Leave him alone and wait for him to come out.” we waited, but the bear stayed inside. We had to sleep in the car that night.
