There're five members in my family—my parents , my grandparents, and me . My mother is a teacher. She teaches Chinese in our school. She likes music. My father is a teacher, too. He teaches art in the Guang Ming primary school. He likes going hiking. My grandmother is a worker. She likes reading books. My grandfather is a scientist. He likes playing chess. I am Betty. I'm in Shi Yan primary school. I like singing and dancing. Look! I have a happy big family. Isn't it?

    My name is Tim. I am tall and fat. My student number is fifteen. I like playing cards with my friend, Jane. Jane is a thirteen-year-old girl. Her student number is four. Every morning we walk to school. We like reading and writing in the classroom. After school, we go home together. We help each other(互相).

    Woof…Woof…What do you hear? It's a dog. It's my dog. It's super. It's yellow and white. It likes eating meat and apples. It can sing and dance. It's a present from my father. I like my dog very much.

    Look at my family. Grandpa is sleeping in the bedroom. He is tired. Grandma is in the kitchen. She is cooking dinner. She is happy. My father and mother are in the sitting-room. They are singing. Ken is in the bedroom. He is doing a puzzle. I'm in the bathroom. I'm washing my toys. Sam is a dog. It is playing with its ball in its basket.

    To be tall and strong

    To be tall and strong is a dream for a lot of teenage(青少年的) boys. It's Mike's dream, too.

    One day, Mike didn't do well in PE class. He went home unhappily.

    "What's the matter?" Mike's father asked.

    "I want to be taller and stronger. What should I do? Can I take some special(特殊的) medicine?" Mike asked.

    "Being healthy is more important," Mike's father said.

    Mike's father was right. No special medicine can make you taller and stronger. First, Mike should eat three meals a day. He must eat more fruit and vegetables. Exercise is important, too. Mike should try to exercise every day.

    I have a pretty pet. Her name is Polly Bird. When Polly was young, she lived in a birdhouse. Now she lives in a birdcage. When Polly was young, she couldn't sing. Now she sings all day long. When Polly was young, she couldn't eat birdseed. Now she can eat birdseed.

    When Polly was young, she couldn't fly. Now she flies out of the birdcage every morning. She flies back into the birdcage every evening. When Polly was young, she didn't like our pet rabbit Lulu. Now she plays with Lulu every day. When I am sad, Polly sings to me. She makes me happy. I love Polly very much.

    Hello! My name is Lucy. My uncle has a farm in Sydney. There are twelve cows, fourteen pigs, twenty goats, sixty ducks and seventy hens on his farm. It's sunny and hot today. I wear my yellow T-shirt and red skirt. I go to my uncle's farm with my parents. The farm is big and nice. There are carrots and green beans, too. I like it very much. How about you?
