A
★★★★☆
We stood silently under the stars,just metres from our tent,hardly daring to breathe. Not far away stood four (黑斑玲) .Did they know, as we did,that a leopala(豹子) lay under a bush?
She jumped. Four shadowy shapes jumped into the woods. Had the leopard made a successful kill? The whole scene had taken place too quickly,and in not enough light,for any of US to be sure. In fact,we had been on our way from the tent to the suppertime campfire. Half an hour later we had a tale to outdo most told around the fire. “This has got to be the best nightlife in the world,answered my boy Toby,whe]tr some middle-aged tourists asked him how he was enjoying his holiday.
So much for the lies of experts who doubted that safaris(游獵) would be workable for teenagers. True,this is a difficult age,with teens beginning to sense that they are too old for family holidays. But our kids didn't want to return to the kind of “teen clubs”. So,my wife and I thought,if we were going to have one really good family holiday,why not Africa?
Our holiday began with a flight to Aruslm airport,then a long drive south. We chose to stay at Mdonya Old River Camp because this is one that avoids soft beds and towels,etc; these,to my mind can prevent US from connecting with nature. Instead,the five of US shared a simple tent at the edge of a dried-up sand river.
If there was one disappointment about the wildlife viewing in Tanzania,it was that game drives are not allowed in any of anthere country national parks after dark. But if anything,this made our night-time meeting with the leopard and impala outside our tent even more special.
Our final trip was over to Zanzibar where we sailed out to a sandbank and watched a beautiful sunset. And we concluded(得出結論) that if there is one family holiday that will attract teens,it is a safari.

Back in 2001,Pen Hadow and I traveled to the north pole(北極) . 〇ne morning we’d just taken down our tent and started (滑雪) .Pen was in front,and I was following him. Suddenly I got a strange feeling that something was behind us.I stopped,looked back and saw a polar bear,walking towards us.
Pen and I planned to stay where we were,try and look big,and frigtiten it away. Pen had a shotgun that we’d bought in Russia. That was his job. My job was to look big and to take off my skis,hold the skis in the air,make lots of noise,and frighten away the bear. Pen raised the gun and fired into the air. However,it jammed and failed to work.
The bear was walking towards us. Pen tried again,but again it didn’ t wotk. Then he walked towards the bear,and I thought, “Wow,Pen,s gone completely mad. He's going to get eaten. What should I do?”
I thought maybe I could throw a ski at it or stab (刺) it with a ski pole or something. Suddenly the bear stopped. Pen stopped. Bang. The gurt went off in the air. There was a big cloud of smoke that I think surprised Pen and me more than it surprised the bear. The animal looked up,looked down,turned around and walked off. Pen turned round and said, “Quick,get the camera and take a photograph,” and that was when suddenly I felt really nervous. I couldn’ t even undo the zip on our bag.
That was the morning of the second day of this journey. We were out there for two months — fifty-nine days,but we never saw another bear that close.
