Today is December 25 th. It's Christmas Day. It's winter now. It's cold, but I'm very happy. Because I can visit my grandparents. We will eat dinner together. I like winter best. I can make a snowman in winter. My mother's birthday is on December 12 th. So I can eat a big birthday cake in December.

    We have a big libraryin our school. We all like to read books in the library.

    It's Friday. We have only two classes in the afternoon. When the classes are over. A lot of students go to the library. Look! The boys of Grade Two are reading books.

    Many teachers are reading books , too. I want to borrow two books about English. Because I like English very much.

    My biggest hobby is reading. Do you like reading?

    It's Saturday morning. My friends and I are going to the park. It's near our school. We get there by bike. There are a lot of people in the park. Some girls are skipping. Some boys are flying kites. I am watching boats on the lake. I like them. Rowing a boat is fun. We are going to see a film in the evening. Everyone is having a good time.

    I have a good friend. Her name is Ann. Her Chinese name is Wang Xiaolan. She is from England. She is in Beijing now. She is in Class Four, Grade Six. She is twelve. She has blue eyes and yellow hair. It's sunny and warm today. We want to have a picnic in a park. There are many big trees in the park. On the way to the park it started to rain and I forgot to bring my umbrella. What bad luck! We caught a cold.
