Peter and Linda are good friends. This Saturday they will go to the Palace Museum. It is old and beautiful. It's about six hundred years old. It is famous in the world. This will be their second time(次) to go there. They hope(希望) it will be sunny that day. Peter's mother says, "There are many things there. When you look in the windows, you can see many old tables and chairs." They will take pictures. They think it will be a wonderful trip!

    There are many different kinds of parrots in the world. They can not only(不但)live in the tree, but they can also(而且)live on the mountain. Some parrots are quite big. Some are very small. Many people like them, because they often have beautiful colours, and because they can “talk”.

    Do you know why parrots can talk? But most birds cannot. Perhaps, parrots can “talk” because they have big, thick tongues. But some other birds that cannot talk have big, thick tongues, too. So we don't know why parrots can talk.

    My name is Janet. There are five people in my family. They are my father, mother, brother, sister and me. We live in Beijing. My father likes spring best because he likes climbing mountains. My mother is a doctor. She likes swimming in the lake, so summer is her favourite season. My brother likes winter very much because he likes going skating. My sister likes autumn best because it is cool in autumn. She doesn't like summer. It's too hot for her. What about me? Oh, I like making a snowman. Guess? What's my favourite season?

    Today is Saturday. Mike is going to the nature park with his classmates. They are going there by bus and the bus station is close to Mike's home. The nature park is a little far, but the No.6 bus will take them there. He also has plans for tomorrow. He is going to the bookstore and buy some comic books on Sunday morning. In the evening, he is going to see a film. He will have a good time on the weekend.

    Jack has classes from Monday to Friday. Today is the last(最后的) day of week so Jack will have a picnic in the park with his parents. He gets up at 8:00 and have breakfast at 8:30. At 9:00, they go to park on foot. Jack' mum brings some fruits and Jack's dad brings cakes. Look! Jack is flying a kite. The part is very beautiful(美丽的). Butterflies fly everywhere and flowers are very beautiful, too. They all like having a picnic in the park.
