    Hello, this is the photo of my family. It's on the wall. Look! These are my grandma and grandpa. They are farmers. My father is here. He's a doctor. He's tall and strong. My mother is a teacher. She's thin. Oh, this is my sister. She's quiet. She's 10. She's a good student. Look! Who is he? Guess! Yes, it's me. I like music and books.

This is Sam's plan for his summer holiday.

    Steven goes to the park with his father. They have a lot of fun, but now he can't find his father. He goes to the Information Center. "Excuse me. Can I use your phone? I can't find my dad." The man in the center says, "Sure. Here you are." He calls his father. His father says, "I'm at the hamburger shop." Steven thanks the man. Now he can find his dad.

    Hello! I'm Mary. I have a happy family. Come and meet my family. My father is a doctor. He likes playing sports, so he is tall and strong. My mother is tall and thin. She is a teacher. She's kind, but sometimes she's strict. My brother is a basketball player. He's strong, too. This is my sister, she's pretty and friendly. She's a nurse. I am a student. I have no job. But I hope I will be a teacher in the future.
