Ma Liang was a good boy. He helped people. He had a paintbrush. It was magic. This old woman didn't have food. So Ma Liang painted food. Then the food was real. There was a bad man. He didn't help people. He took Ma Liang's magic paintbrush. The bad man didn't have gold. So he painted gold with the magic paintbrush. But it didn't make gold. It made a snake! 

    Last Sunday morning，Tom and Henry went swimming in a swimming pool. They went there by bus. It was very hot. But they had fun in the swimming pool.

    In the afternoon, they played sports. They taught each other a sport. They were thirsty. There was a small shop near them. So Henry went to the shop and bought two bottles of juice. It was cool to drink the cold juice. How happy they were!

    In the morning, the sun rises in the east. At noon, the sun is high in the sky. Our shadows are short. In the evening, the sun goes down in the west. Our shadows are long. Our shadows always follow(跟着) us. If it's cloudy or rainy, we can't see them. If there is light(光), they will come out.

    Hi, I'm Mike. I'm a clever student. Usually, I go to school on foot. Because my home is near the school. Tom is my good friend. We often go to school together. My father is a doctor. He often goes to work by car. My mother is a teacher. She often goes to work by bus, but sometimes by bike.

    On weekends, I often go to the park with my parents. In the afternoon, I often go to the library by bike. I like reading. After dinner, I like watching TV with my family.

    A man lost a needle (针) in the room. But it was dark in the room and he could not see it. He came out and looked for the needle in the street. A friend of his came up and said, "What are you doing here?" "I am looking for my needle now." "Where did you lose it?" he asked. "I lost it in my room." "You lost your needle in your room, but you look for it in the street. Isn't that funny?" "But it is dark in my room. I can't find it there. Here is bright and I can see it."
