    My name is Lily. My father is a police officer and he can stop bad people. He often goes to work by car. My mother is a secretary and she works in a big company. She usually goes to work by taxi. I am a student and I go to school on foot. I like science. So we are going to visit the science museum on Saturday morning. And then we are going to buy some comic books in the evening. On Sunday, we are going to visit my grandparents. We will have a happy weekend.

    When old Mr Chow was a young man, he went to visit his uncle in the city. His wife and children met him at the train station when he arrived back in the countryside. When he got off the train, his wife asked, "Did you miss us?"

    "Yes, I missed you all. There's no place like home. Life in the city was strange. Uncle Tom lives in a modern neighbourhood (居住区), People go up to their homes in a big box." Mr Chow said.

    "You look tired." said Mrs Chow.

    "Yes, I need to sleep. I couldn't sleep at night because the light was much brighter (更亮）than the candle in our house."

    "Why didn't you blow it out?" asked Mrs Chow.

    "I tried (尝试）to, but it was in a glass ball." said Mr Chow.

    It's Saturday morning. My parents and I are on a tour bus. There are about twenty people on the bus. Some are from America, and some are from England and Australia. They are all our friends. We are going to the Great Wall. On the bus, there are two Chinese. One is a woman, the other is a man. The woman is good at English. She is talking with us about the Great Wall. The other people are listening to her. They like the Great Wall. They want to see it very much.

    Spring Festival is an important festival in China. At Spring Festival, people buy some flowers and put them in their houses. The children get red packets(红包) from their grandparents. They burn firecrackers(爆竹). And they have a big family dinner. They eat dumplings. They can see dragon dances(舞龙) and lion dances(舞狮). It's very interesting.
