AN OUTING
We were discussing where to go for an outing during the spring holidays. Some suggested the Guanting Reservoir. Others wanted to see the Great Wall. Then someone said, "Why not go back to Anzhuang for a visit?"
At this we all cheered. Of course, we would revisit that beautiful mountain village on the banks of the Yongding River!
The place was dear to us all. We had gone there the year before to plant trees in the surrounding mountains. We had formed close ties with the villagers.
So early next morning we were off to Anzhuang on the 7:30 train. It was a fine day in April. Everyone was in high spirits. We could hardly sit still, for there were so many interesting sights outside the window. We saw new factories and well-cultivated fields all along the line. At Shijingshan we passed the huge steel mill 7 and the power plant. Then suddenly we saw the green Yongding River in the valley below. Our hearts gave a leap, for we knew that in a few minutes we would be with our friends at Anzhuang again.
They were overjoyed to see us. The old villagers kept asking how we were. They were pleased to see how much stronger some of us had become. Then some old friends of ours took us to see what they had achieved. New houses, larger schools, more sheep, more pigs and chickens, more cows and horses - everywhere we saw signs of prosperity. Then we climbed the mountains. The villagers showed us the trees we had planted. We were happy to see that most of them were growing well. At one place we found some young people digging 8 pits 9. They were getting things ready for this year's tree-planting. We all joined them in the work.
But the time soon came for us to return. It was getting dark.
We told our friends that we would soon come back to plant trees again.
Back in the train, we told each other what a wonderful time we had had that day.
"An outing like this is certainly more exciting than picnicking in the Summer Palace," one student said.
"Or on the Great Wall," another added 10.
They spoke 11 for us all.
