Classes are over at 3:30 p. m. , so we always play after that. Most of us like to play at school some do their homework, some play at school. Sometimes we clean our classroom and school garden. Sometimes we play ballgames in the playground. On weekends we always visit Mrs. Li. She is an eighty-year-old woman. We read newspaper to her. Tell her some interesting things about school. We talk to her. We help her do some housework. Mrs. Li likes to be with us. We feel happy with each other.

Hans Christian Andersen

    Hans Christian Andersen was a great writer.  He wrote many famous fairy tales for children all over the world.

    Andersen was born in 1805. When he was a little boy, his father read him a story every day. His father died when he was 11. He had to leave school and started working. He loved reading books very much, so he went back to school at 17. His first book came out in 1835. From then on, he wrote about one book a year for 37 years. Some of his famous fairy tales are The Emperor's New, Clothes and The Ugly Duckling. He died in 1875.

    Many children enjoy reading because of him.

    This is Sarah's new home. There is a clock in the study. There is a plant in the living room. There is a water bottle in the kitchen. There is a big bed, a photo and a lamp in the bedroom. Look, the cat is on the bed now.

    Yesterday was Sunday. My family went to the Renmin Park. There were many people. Some rode bikes. Some went fishing. Some flew kites. The kites flew very high in the sky. We played football. My father ran fast, my mother helped me, but I didn't win. We were very happy.

    My name is Jack. Today I am very happy, because it's my birthday. I eat eggs and noodles for breakfast. I invited my friends to my house and play with me. They bring some blue things for me. Blue is my favorite colour. Linda brings me a blue card. Tom brings me a blue hat. Lily brings a blue cake. We sing and dance together. After the party, we go to the cinema. We watch an funny film. We are happy.
