The summer vacation had come round
again. I was happy that I could forget about school at least for a
while. Lest I fool around all through this summer vacation, I made a
plan as to how to spend it. First, I thought I should go over all those
things my teachers taught in the previous term so that I could have a
better understanding of them. Then I thought I should take up some forms
of exercise, such as walking, running and rowing, to keep me physically
strong. It stood to reason that with such a good plan I should make the
best of my vacation time. I did, because I lived up to what I had
planned in this summer vacation.

Summer can be very hot in southern
Taiwan where the temperature usually goes up to 32"C or more. Because of
the heat it is a trying experience to go to school or do anything else
in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because of this I stay at
home most of the time during the summer vacation and only occasionally
go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to keep my
body less sticky. Actually I like swimming and think nothing is more
refreshing than a swim. In the summer
vacation that has just ended I went swimming many times with my
classmates and we all had a good time. This summer vacation, however,
was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student I
had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were
only a year away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I
divided my time between work and play during the summer
vacation and derived much benefit from this arrangement.
I spent this summer vacation in quite a
different way. I used to run about every day in previous summer
vacations, but this summer vacation I simply could not afford to do so. I
would soon be in the last year of my high-school education and would
after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations. Though
those examinations were still a year away, I had to start early to make
myself well prepared .
