The tortoise and the rabbit

    Rabbit loves running. He can run very fast. One day, he sees a small green animal with a hard shell(壳).

    "Hello," Rabbit says, "Who are you?" "I'm a tortoise." "What do tortoises like?" "We like running," Tortoise says. Rabbit laughs. "I can run very fast. Let's have a race (赛跑)."

    Rabbit is very fast. Tortoise is very slow. "I will (将会) win (获胜)," Rabbit thinks. Then he falls asleep (睡着的).

    Tortoise walks and walks. He walks past (经过) Rabbit and gets to the finish line (终点线). Tortoise wins!

    There is a new park near my house. It's a fine day today. My family and I are in the park now. On my left, there is a cafe(咖啡馆). On my right, there is a big lake. There are many flowers and trees near the lake. There's a small hill behind the lake. Beside the lake, there is a sign. It says, “You mustn't swim in the lake！”There is a playground in the middle of (在……中间)the park. Next to the gate(大门) there is a small toy shop. The park is so beautiful. We like it very much.
