    Once upon a time， there was an old woman who lived in a small house. She planted a lot of beautiful tulips (郁金香) in her garden.

    One night，the sounds of sweet singing and of babies laughing woke her up. She looked out of the window. The sounds seemed to come from the tulips， but she could see nothing.

    The next morning she walked among her flowers， but there were no signs of anyone having been there the night before.

    On the following night she was again wakened (弄醒) by the sounds of sweet singing and babies laughing. She got out of bed and walked softly into her garden. The old woman looked closely and she noticed that a fairy (精灵) mother was singing softly， and that in each tulip-cup was a little fairy baby， laughing and playing.

    The old woman went back to her house quietly. From then on， she never picked a tulip. She didn't allow her neighbours to pick the flowers ， either. When the old woman died， all the tulips disappeared overnight. But her grave (坟墓) looked beautiful， because the fairies sang above it and kept it green.

    It is necessary for children to help their parents with housework. But most parents may find it difficult to get their children to help with it, because children usually enjoy playing games instead of doing housework. However, I have some good ways to get my children to do housework. Here is an example.

    "Mum, what's next week's housework? Let Kitty and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's interesting!"

    When my son, 7-year-old Tommy shouted, I began to put all the cards on the sofa. On the cards, I wrote some words like these, "wash the car, take out the rubbish, make the bed, do the dishes, clean the living room, sweep the floor, wash the clothes, take the dog for walks, water the flowers" and so on.

    Kitty and Tommy chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they wrote them down on their notebooks. Tommy likes to take the dog for walks best while Kitty enjoys cleaning the living room. Soon the two kids had fun taking away all the cards. And I didn't need to worry about the housework again. Of course, on weekends, I usually do the housework myself and set the children free.

My name is Tom Brown. I'm fine. I'm not twelve. I am eleven. I'm not in Grade Seven. I'm in Grade Eight. I'm in Class Three. My teacher isn't Miss Black. My teacher is Mr Green. My phone number is 7667250.

Last night one of my Chinese friends took me to a concert of Chinese folk music. The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me. The music was strangely beautiful ，but under the beauty I sensed a strong sadness and pain. The piece had a simple name，Erquan Yingyue （Moon Reflected on Second Spring），and I began to understand the sadness in the music. 

The music was written by Abing，a folk musician who was born in the city of Wuxi in 1893. His mother died when he was very young. Abing's father taught him to play many musical instruments，such as the drums，and in the year of 1910，Abing was known for his musical ability. However，Abing's life grew worse. He was very poor. Not only that，he developed a serious illness and became blind. For several years，he continued to sing and play on the streets. He performed in this way for many years. 

Abing's amazing musical skills made him very popular during his lifetime. By the end of his life，he could play over 600 pieces of music. Many of these were written by Abing himself. It is a pity that only six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world to hear，but his popularity continues to this day. Today（伤口） from their own sad or painful experiences.
