like to take the nature course being offered by Carvel College again this summer． Groups of about a dozen students each， led by an experienced guide， will go on ten﹣ day camping trips to the mountains to study the plants and animals that grow and live there． Students carry their own things， which includes sleeping bags， warm clothing， food and water，and other useful tools． And what do the students do all day？ Well， as soon as the sun es up，they eat breakfast and start climbing up the mountain trail to the next campground， which is five to ten miles away． As the students take notes， the guide points out different plants and animals alongside the trail． The climb is usually over by early afternoon， so the group spends the rest of the day resting or swimming in a mountain lake． Before dinner each night， they all e together and discuss the day’s activities． At the end of the course， the students write reports using the information they have collected． But they don’t mind at all． What they

is not always easy． What can you do if you just don’t like one of your classmates？ If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends， the most important thing to learn is tolerance． Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others． We can not change the way that other people do， so it is important to learn to live happily with them． Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other． Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently． Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad． Tolerance teaches us to keep atemperateand open mind． You need to remember an old saying， “Treat others how you want to be treated”． If you tolerate something， it does not mean that you have to like it． No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in． Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change． It is important to practice tolerance， because it will make everyone’s life easier． Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests． The world is very different， and practicing tolerance in your own
