    Hello! My name is Wendy. I live in the city. My family doesn't have a car, so I go to school on the bus. There are four people in my family. They are my parents, my brother and I. We live happily together.

    At school, I study very hard. I am very good at English. I often help my classmates with their Chinese and English. I enjoy learning.

    I am a quiet girl. I like reading and listening to light music. I have some friends. We always spend time together, they are very funny and friendly. I wish we can be friends forever.

    Many would agree that when we think of Christmas， we probably think of gifts， Christmas trees and Santa Claus. But behind all these things lies the true meaning of Christmas: the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us. The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this.

    A Christmas Carol is a famous novel written by Charles Dickens. It is about an old man named Scrooge. He only thinks about himself and doesn't treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he can make more money. And he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve， Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley， his dead business partner. Marley used to be just like Scrooge， so he was punished after he died. He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn't want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.

    That night， three ghosts visit Scrooge. First， the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his happier days as a child. Then the second spirit， the Ghost of Christmas Present， takes him to see how others are spending Christmas this year. Everyone is happy， even poor people. The last one， the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come， takes him to the future. He sees that he is dead but nobody cares. Scrooge is so scared that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is already the next morning on Christmas Day!

    He decides to change his life and promises to be a better person. He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives. He also gives gifts to people in need. He now treats everyone with kindness and warmth， spreading love and joy everywhere he goes. And that is the true spirit of Christmas!

    It was night by the time she came to a town. Just outside the town, there was a large temple(寺庙). It was very quiet. There was only one light in one of the rooms.

    "I will stay here tonight," she thought.

    The temple was quiet because only a goblin(小妖精)lived in it. But the girl did not know this.

    Once inside the temple, she came near to the only room. She knocked on the door, but no one came.

    "Is anyone here?" she called quietly.

    There was no answer, so she went into the room. Inside the room, there was only a mat(垫子)on the floor, a light near the window, and a large paper screen.

    The girl wanted to sleep, but she also wanted to draw some cats. She drew them on the paper screen. She drew cats of every kind.

    After that, she lay down and went to sleep. Then she remembered the nun's words: Don't go into large places at night. Go only into small ones.

    "This room is very large. And I am alone. I'll hide myself."

    She looked around the room and saw a large box. She opened the box and looked inside. It was empty.

    "Good," she thought. "I can hide in this box."
