Hello! My name is John. Last weekend I was very busy. On Saturday morning I cleaned my room. In the afternoon, I drank tea with my father. In the evening, I watched TV. On Sunday morning, I read my English book. In the afternoon, I played football with my friends. In the evening, I did my homework.

    Hi，I am Susan. I am from the USA. But now I'm studying in China. I'm going to do many things during(在……期间) the winter holiday. First，I'm going to finish my homework. Then I'm going to take a trip. I'm going to go to Beijing. It is the capital(首都) of China. It will be snowy in Beijing. There will be snow everywhere. So I'm going to make a snowman. My parents will come to China and go with me. We are going to fly to Beijing. We are going to have a nice 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.

    Hello, I'm Linda. I come from the USA. I like swimming. Lingling and Mingming are my friends. They come from China. Lingling has two big eyes. She can sing songs. Mingming likes playing basketball. Today is Sunday. We're playing in the park. We are happy.

    Tom is my new friend. He lives in a big house in Canada. Tom likes his study because he likes reading and playing computer games. His brother Tim likes his bedroom best because he likes sleeping.

    His father works in Window School. He is a teacher. He likes riding. He goes to work by bike every day. His mother is a TV reporter. She likes reading newspapers. She goes to work by bus. She can read on the bus. October in Beijing is beautiful. It's cool. Tom's family is coming to China. I hope to see them soon.
