on. Looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Hua第二節(jié) (滿分25分)Then, our car was truly stuck in the mud. We tried hard to push the car out of the mud, but in vain. We needed two boards long enough to help the wheels move. Luckily, we were not far away from the camp. We called the manager of the camp for help. After a few moments, two local men drove over with necessary equipment and pushed us free. Thankfully, with the local men guiding, we drove on to the parking lot next to our hut. We got out of the car. We were amazed to find many monkeys jumping up and down in the trees. After carrying our suitcases and boxes of food into the hut, I returned to the car and fetched more possessions. It was then that I noticed a small grey monkey sitting on a tree a few metres away and eating a banana. “So cute,” I thought to myself, until I realized it was my banana that he was eating! What an experience!附:聽力材料Text 1W: Hi, Charles, nice to meet you at last.M: Sorry, Charles is just parking the car. I’m Peter, his brother.W: Oh, I’m sorry.
