Two months ago, I went to Australia for a meeting with my workmate（同事）,Chris. We decided to drive across the country after the meeting. The drive would take four days and most of it was across the desert（沙漠）.

The first day was a lot of fun because we were happy to hear each other's jokes（玩笑）. But on the third day, we began to get bored. We were quite quiet for some hours when Chris saw some kangaroos（袋鼠）.We were both excited and decided to take a closer（近一點(diǎn)的） look. Chris drove very quickly to catch up with（趕上）them. We got closer and closer when we heard a loud BANG!

Chris stopped the car and we got out. Beside the car was a large kangaroo lying on the ground. Chris went over to it and put his cap on its head. He took off his sunglasses and put them on the kangaroo and did the same with his jacket. Then he put his arm around the kangaroo and told me to take a photo of them together. I took out my camera. When I was focusing（調(diào)整焦距）the camera, I saw the kangaroo move(移動(dòng)). It suddenly woke up, and ran away before we could do anything.

I started laughing but Chris looked worried. He said his wallet was in the jacket. I started laughing even louder. I stopped laughing when he said that our car keys were also in the jacket.
