Several summers ago, Joe Smith, a coach(教练)of a football team, and his family were spending their holidays in a small town. One rainy afternoon, it was impossible for them to go out to do something interesting, so the family decided to go to cinema. Joe, his wife, and their three children walked soon to the town's only cinema, bought tickets and went into the hall. The lights were still on, and there were just six other persons there. As Joe entered, some of them saw him and started chapping(鼓掌).

    Joe gave them a smile and turned to his wife. "Aha, I can't believed they know me and I'm getting a warm welcome here," he guessed. "They saw my games on TV."

    They sat down and then a young man came back and gave out his hand. "Thanks a lot," said the coach. "I just can't believe you know who I am." "All I know," replied the man, "It is that they would not show the film until at least ten people bought tickets."

I start my first day of school at junior high today! I can't believe this day has finally arrived.

What I am thinking about m{#blank#}1{#/blank#}me nervous（紧张的）. After all, I was one of the leaders at my old school. The younger students all looked u{#blank#}2{#/blank#}to us sixth graders. Now, I am going to be a new kid all over again and I am going to have to make new friends.

I am not alone. All of us going into the junior high are in the same b{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. In fact, I am not w{#blank#}4{#/blank#} about being a new junior high school student. I am excited about it! I am excited about all the different s{#blank#}5{#/blank#}I get to study.

The letter I got last week from my new school says that this Friday will be Club Day. There are a lot of a{#blank#}6{#/blank#}at my new school. I think I might take p{#blank#}7{#/blank#} in the Film Making Club. Dad told me that a good w{#blank#}8{#/blank#}   to make new friends is to meet people who share your hobbies.

I will miss my old friends when I am in this new school, but I know there will be at least three other students from my primary school. I also know that I can talk with my old friends even if we no longer go to the s{#blank#}9{#/blank#}school.

I am so excited now! Mum, Dud, Grandma, and Grandpa are all excited for me as well. I think I am going to enjoy m{#blank#}10{#/blank#}at the junior high school after all. I am looking forward to a great year and an exciting new world!

Sam wants to be a musician. When he was a young kid，he loved music very much. Now he enjoys playing many instruments such as the guitar，the violin and the drum  but he loves playing the piano most.

Sam has wanted to be a musician since he first learned to play the piano. He likes to play the piano because it always makes him quiet when he is angry or sad. Also，he likes to listen to all kinds of music. 

He'd like to be a musician and play great music in his concerts. He hopes his friends and many other people will go to his concerts. Then he can get a lot of money from the concerts and give all the money to other children who need money. 

Of course，he will have to practice very hard if he wants to be a musician. We hope that he can become a musician. Then he'll be very happy and do some things to help many people. 

At the age of 1 year and 152 days, Ace-Liam Ankrah from Ghana became the youngest male artist in the world. 

Ace-Liam became interested in painting when he was just 6 months old. Ace-Liam's mother, Eghan, is an artist. A few years ago, she{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Arts and Cocktails Studio to offer painting classes. 

Eghan said she couldn't take care {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Ace-Liam while she was painting. So to {#blank#}3{#/blank#}him busy, she thought up a way. "I put a canvas(油画布) on the floor and put paints on it. As he crawled(爬), he made all the colours cover the canvas, " she said. 

That's {#blank#}4{#/blank#}his first painting, The Crawl, was born. Eghan was {#blank#}5{#/blank#}by Ace-Liam's talent(天赋). After that, Ace-Liam continued to draw. Last year, Eghan decided to apply for(申请) the world record(纪录) for her son．However, someone told her that {#blank#}6{#/blank#}Ace-Liam wanted to break the record, he needed to exhibit and sell his paintings. So she held an exhibition for Ace-Liam in January. And she sold nine out of his ten {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. 

On May 20, Ace-Liam entered the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's youngest male artist. 

Ace-Liam still loves painting. There is a corner in his mother's studio just for him. He often paints on {#blank#}8{#/blank#}own there. 

"He often spends the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}day painting in the corner. He's not just playing there. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}he's growing up there, " said Eghan.
