    In many countries, winter is from December to February. Autumn is 3 months before winter. In the autumn, leaves drop to the ground. Many trees have nuts or fruits. Animals may begin to store food. Some birds collect nuts to store. Other birds fly to a warmer place for the winter. They won't return until the spring. Days become shorter. Cold weather is coming. The fur of many animals gets thick because they need a thick coat to protect themselves. People also wear warmer clothes, because the weather is a little colder. In some places there may be rain or even snow, but in many southern places it is still warm. Autumn is also the time when farmers harvest their crops. People look forward to( 盼望) autumn for many reasons. The most important one is that autumn is the harvest season.

    It's a very nice day in October. The students are having a maths class. But Bob is looking out of the window and watching the clouds move (移动) across the blue sky. "Boy, what a day to play football!" he thinks. Just then(就在那时) the bell rings and wakes(叫醒) him from his daydream(白日梦). He closes his notebook sadly, stands up, and walks slowly to his next class.

    My friend Patrick never did his homework. "Too boring," he often said. Instead (代替), he played basketball and baseball.

    His teachers told him, "Patrick! You won't learn anything if you don't do your homework." But Patrick didn't like doing his homework. Then one day, he got a toy and wanted to give the toy to his cat. But the toy was a witch (巫师)."Save me! Don't give me to that cat." "If you help me do my homework this term, I can save you." The witch agreed and began to help do Patrick's homework. But the witch always didn't know the answers. So he said to Patrick, "Go to the library. I need many books. And you can help me read them. So I can finish your homework." Patrick agreed and he found that it was interesting to read books.

    Patrick got his Ac in the exam. His classmates were amazed and they never thought he could get Ac. His teachers felt happy. Patrick felt very happy too.
