Last weekend we went to the countryside (乡村) to have a picnic. We took a few sandwiches and some bottles of water with us for lunch. Of course, we didn't forget(忘记) to take some fruit and we even took some tomatoes and potatoes. We left home quite early because we wanted to avoid the traffic jam (避免堵塞). About two hours later, we came to a nice place. It was near a river. We put our bicycles under the trees and went swimming. It was a very hot day. The water was very clean(干净的). After having a swim, we had lunch in the cool shade(阴影) under the trees. Then we went for a walk. We came back home before it was getting dark(天黑).

Tomorrow is Monday. LingLing and Amy will go to school. Their school always starts at nine o'clock. They often get up at half past seven. Amy walks to school because her house is near the school. LingLing does exercises every morning, but Amy doesn't. Amy plays in the playground before nine o' clock.

Today is a boring day. It rained all day. I stayed inside. I 1 TV all the morning. The shows were 2 . I called my friend Amanda. She 3 at home. After lunch, I slept4  three hours. Then I started to read a storybook. What a stupid book! The writer doesn't know what he is  5 about.

I'm happy tomorrow is Monday. I can go back to school and see my friends.
