    A girl is walking in the park. She sits down to eat some cakes. A bug(小虫) comes and says, " I like cakes. Can I have some?" The girl looks at the bug. Then she looks back at the cakes. She says, "Bugs do not talk. You are a bug. So you can not talk. "

    The bug says, "But I can talk. And I can sing." The bug is singing. "That singing is bad. I have to hold my hands over my ears(用手捂着耳朵).''

    "Why don't you like my singing? Give me some cakes. "

    The girl says, "Stop that singing. I'll give you some cakes. "

    The bug stops and the girl gives the bug some cakes. The bug gets sick (感到恶心). It says, "Now I can't sing."

    The girl says, "That's good." Then she eats the rest(剩余部分) of the cakes.

    In this winter vacation, I am going to prepare for a Peking Opera competition. Last year, my clock was broken. I was late and missed the competition. That was a great pity. I hope I can win the first prize this year.

    I am also going to Xiamen to visit my grandparents. Xiamen is in the south of China. I am going to give my photos of the competition to them. I think they will be very happy. I am looking forward to seeing them.

    Hello, friends! My name is Lily. I am a girl. This is a picture of my family. Look! The man is my father. He is tall and thin. The pretty woman is my mother. She is nice. She has long curly hair. The cute boy is my brother. He has big eyes and short hair. Who's that pretty girl? Is it my sister? No, it's me! I have a dog. It has a long tail.

    Dinosaurs lived long ago. One kind of dinosaurs lived in a desert (沙漠). One of these dinosaurs wanted to lay eggs. It made a hole in the sand (沙子) and put the eggs inside. It covered them with sand. A strong wind started to blow. It blew and blew. More sand blew over the eggs. Soon the eggs were buried (埋) in the sand.

    A long, long time went by. There were no more dinosaurs. But there was still a desert. And the eggs were still there. But they changed. They turned to stones!

    Some people came to the desert. They were looking for old things. They found the stone eggs. Before that, no one knew how dinosaurs were born. But now we know that.
