It's almost the camp season!
Summer is wonderful. Summer at one of the following awesome camps? Even more wonderful.
Tohosa High Adventure Base
Location: Ward, Colorado
People's puzzle: Tahosa's ropes courses are some of the nation's best. Use your hands, feet and brains to take up highflying challenges and overcome your fears. Fly fishing at 9,000 feet? Yes. Fishing licenses or experience needed? No, sir!
Choose your adventure: Go allinclusive, where the staff prepare meals and run the program, or take control and plan your perfect week. The choice is yours.
Camp Raymond
Location: Parks, Arizona
Don't look down: When you are looking up at the stars, light pollution is your enemy. But Camp Raymond's location and elevation (海拔) of 6,700 feet offer perfect conditions for seeing otherwise invisible stars.
That's cool: Don't forget your camera and a jacket. During the day, you could spot bears and deer. At night, temperatures can fall sharply. Hot cocoa at summer camp? Cool.
Pamlico Sea Base
Location: Blounts Creek, North Carolina
Go coastal: Explore the Carolina coast by boat. You choose the route, and Pamlico provides the equipment. Keep an eye out for wild horses, lighthouses and boatloads of fish.
Set sail: Even if you don't know the starboard, Pamlico's sailing journey will make you a firstrate sailor in no time. You'll even practice finding your way using the stars.
Base Camp
Location: St. Paul, Minnesota
Big upgrade: What happens when you change a 1907 cavalry drill hall (骑兵训练场) into an adventure destination in the heart of the city? You get Base Camp for overnight lockins, weekend retreats (隐居处) and summer camp.
Inside out: Most of Base Camp is indoors, meaning the activities like climbing walls can be undertaken on winter's coldest days.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇广告类应用文,主要介绍了四个不同类型的夏令营,包括活动地点、活动项目、注意事项等。
【难句分析】 Even if you don't know the starboard, Pamlico's sailing journey will make you a firstrate sailor in no time.
分析:该句为主从复合句。句中“Even if you don't know the starboard”为Even if引导的让步状语从句。
译文:即使你不知道右舷,帕姆利科的航行之旅也会让你立刻成为一流的水手。
