One day, there's a treasure hunt (寻宝游戏) in the forest behind Sarah's and her friends' houses. Sarah's parents have hidden (藏) a small treasure chest (宝箱) filled with chocolate coins. They follow the clues (线索) and run through the forest.
First, they go to a big tree. Then, they need to find the biggest rock (最大的石头). They find it easily! Next, it's difficult. It says, “Find the path (小路) where the sun doesn't shine (照耀).” They look around. The sun is shining brightly on everything!
Then Sarah has an idea. “Remember that tall, old hollow (空心的) tree near the river? It always has a shady spot (阴凉的地方),” she says.
They run to the hollow tree. There is a dark spot under it. There, behind a log, is the last (最后的) clue! It reads, “The treasure waits where the birds sing happily.” “The birdhouse!” shouts Emily.
They run to the birdhouse and look inside. The treasure chest is sitting inside, shining in the sunlight. They cheer and laugh!
