D. Answer the questions!根据短文内容回答下列问题)（12分）
Frank and his friends used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which he wasn’t able to explain. They were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, they all rushed down to the river and had a swim. Standing by the river，they noticed that it was surrounded(包围> by cliffs. If someone wanted to reach the river, he had to walk past their camp. Several days later, their camping leader had to be away for a day. That afternoon, they had supper early. They were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when an old man walked past and went down towards the river. They all felt that this man looked very frightening. Each of them kept silent and said nothing.
They ate very slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, they collected their plates together so that they could take them to the river where they always washed them. But no one moved towards the river. Then all shouting at once, they began talking about the man who had walked past them. They agreed that how strange he looked and they wondered what he was doing by the river. They knew that he could only return by passing through their camp.
An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested they should creep down by the river so that they could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, they crept down(躁手躁脚）towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree and he could see everything clearly. He called to them that there was no one there, so they ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully. They could not understand where the man had gone.
When it got dark, they went back to their camp feeling unbelievable. They told the leader what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he suggested they go and look again. They did, but there was no one there. 88. What were Frank and his friends always doing above a river?
