Anne LaBastille was born in New York City and grew up in New Jersey. Her first experience with the wilderness was in the Adirondacks in the northeast of New York, where she worked at a summer resort to earn money for college tuition by caring for the horses, giving riding lessons, and working as a waitress. And she had many chances to begin her adventure in the Adirondack wilderness.
Anne returned to school in the fall, but she continued to spend as much time as she could in the Adirondacks. She grew to love her time alone in the mountains. Anne graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in conservation of natural resources and began working for the National Audubon Society in Florida as a wildlife tour leader.
Although Anne took great pleasure in showing people the animals living in the Florida Keys and the Everglades National Park, she longed for the mountains in the northern parts of New York. Finally she decided to build a cabin near Black Bear Lake. Over the years, however, more and more tourists began hiking near her cabin. As a result, Anne decided to build another cabin deeper in the woods at Lily Pad Lake.
Anne lived in the woods for most of her life. She enjoyed living alone in the woods, and her life was far too busy for her to be lonely. When she was not writing books, she wrote articles for National Geographic, Reader’s Digest, and other magazines. In her later years, Anne conducted research in Guatemala on an endangered bird called the grebe. She also lectured nationwide about ecology. Besides, Anne worked with a number of organizations dedicated to conservation.
As a respected guide, author, and conservationist, Anne not only loved the land but also had found a way to become part of it.

Last weekend, I went to the Sports Park with my friends to take part a walking activity. Arrived early in the morning, we were surprised to find many participants of different age already waiting excitedly. We join them. Then, we gathered at the starting point, preparing ourselves good for the long distance walking. Soon, a signal was giving and off we went along the walking route around the park. Some people walked fast, when others just took their time to enjoy the fresh air and the beautiful natural scenery. Finally, my friends or I reached the finishing line. They cheered each other for the success. Regular activities like this not only keep us fit, but also help get closer to the nature.

The topic of my speech today is “Being a good partner”. Cooperation is a good way for us to learn from each other as well as to improve our friendship.Successful cooperation can save us a lot of time and energy.
We will be lucky enough to find someone we like to cooperate with, which will make us feel very happy and long to continue the cooperation.However, it can be difficult to team up with someone we dislike.In this case, we should learn to put up with some of his shortcomings and try to discover his advantages.
How can we become a good partner? As for me, first of all, we should try to listen to others’ opinions.If he makes mistakes, we’d better try to point them out in a polite way.Besides, never force our own ideas on others.
