Last summer, Mary and her classmates had an excursion to the countryside. They went to visit a farm on which Mary’s uncle worked. They left early in the morning and took a bus there. Mary’s uncle met them at the bus station and took them to the farm. On the way, he showed them the fields of rice, wheat, maize, potatoes and sweet potatoes.

After lunch, they all went for a walk. They saw some farm machines and tractors in a large yard of the farm. Mary’s uncle explained to them that those machines were used for ploughing and breaking soil, distributing manure and planting potatoes, rice and wheat. The biggest machine which is called a combine harvester can cut and thresh corn, rice at the same time.

In the afternoon, Mary’s uncle took them to the cattle area where cows, pigs, sheep and chicken were raised and cows were milked once a day. Mary’s uncle had to answer many questions raised by her friends. He also told them about the differences between the life of people in the country and in the city. After having some fresh milk and cakes, they all felt very excited and said goodbye to him and went back home.
