 　　How to Organize a Picnic

　　A picnic is a pleasure trip in which food is taken to be eaten somewhere outdoors. It can either inelude or exclude barbecue. It can be on the beach, on the river bank or even in the woods. No matter where it takes place, it brings great joy.

　　For a picnic to be well organized, you should first prepare the necessary foods, including meat,bread, drinks and so on. Of course the picnic basket should also be taken into consideration. In addition, you should bring with you several disposable pieces of plastic tablecloth¹, which can serve as the table when spread out on the ground. If you plan to have a barbecue at the same time, you should also prepare a grill² and fuel. Generally, the most desirable fuel is charcoal³. It is a good fuel to use in the grill because it burns slowly and gives off great heat. You should also bring some slender pointed⁴ pieces of bamboo or iron so that small pieces of meat can be strung together for easy cooking.

　　The material preparation above is necessary, but it is not enough. Another important thing to think about is' how to dispose available manpower for the activity properly. In other'words, you should appoint different people to be the leaders in charge of different things so that when the picnic begins, they can have a good cooperation, thus making the activity smooth and pleasant.

　　There is one more thing which you can never forget. You should always be aware of the need to protect the environment. To achieve this, you should avoid making a fire under the trees that can easily catch fire. At the same time, when the picnic comes to an end, collect the waste and throw it in the rubbish heap.
