I was lying under a tree and didn’t know what was happening around me. My body was hot. I had a terrible headache. A few minutes later, I was on my way to the hospital.
It was a hot summer day. I, along with hundreds of other runners, came to Beijing for a running race. Halfway through the race, I started to feel dizzy (眩晕的). I didn’t want to give up, so I decided to go on. But it was too hot, and before I could finish the race, I fell down.
Some people said I had heat stroke (暑). Later, however, I learned I had heat exhaustion (热衰竭). What’s the difference?
If we exercise too long in the heat, our bodies can lose too much water and get too hot and we will experience heat exhaustion. If so, our body temperature will increase. We will feel tired and want to drink water. Often, we have a headache. If you get heat exhaustion, find a cool place right away. Drink enough water and rest. Soon you can get better. If you don’t do these, heat exhaustion may turn into heat stroke.
Heat stroke is very dangero us. It happens when one’s body gets too hot from being in hot weather for too long. If someone has heat stroke, his body temperature will go up to 40℃ or even higher. They need to see a doctor at once. They won’t get better without treatment (治疗). People who get heat stroke will feel dizzy, breathe fast and even die.
During the summer, please be very careful when you’re out in the sun.

On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents, we visited the Wildlife Park. The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals and birds. Some are native to Australia and can only be found there. There are over 600 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas and crocodiles.
We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We were allowed to touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very lovely. Although we were not allowed to carry them, I got to take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir (纪念品) of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of fresh water and saltwater crocodiles (鳄鱼). Some of them are really scary with huge teeth! I didn’t want to get too close to them. I watched a bird show as well. The keepers showed us different species they had. I saw an old parrot which could “talk”. It made a great impression on me. There was so much to see. I felt so excited about the trip.
