The Biggest Tree

    Do you know the biggest tree in the world? Its name is “General Sherman”. General Sherman is growing on the slopes (斜坡) of the Rocky Mountains in the United States. General Sherman is about 1100cm across and about 3500cm round, this will give you an idea of General Sherman's size. General Sherman is also very tall. It is over 8000cm high. It began as a tiny seed (小种籽) many years ago. It has been growing since about 2000 BC (公元前). It has been growing for almost 4,000 years and it's still growing! General Sherman is as old as the Pyramids (金字塔). It may live for another 2000 years.

  I have got a toy bear. It's white. It has a small red hat and a black coat. Its name is Winnie. It's very lovely. I like to play with Winnie.
