A lot of boys and girls in west countries are wearing the same kinds of clothes: Many of them have long hair, so it is often difficult to tell whether they ate boys or girls.

    One day, an old man went for a walk in Washington. When he was tired he sat down on a long chair. A young person was standing onthe other side of the pool.

  “Good Heavens!” the old man said to the person who was sitting next to him on the chair. “Do you see that person with long hair? Is ita boy or a girl?”

  “A girl.” said his neighbor, “She's my daughter.”

“Oh!” the old man said quickly, “I'm sorry. I didn'tknow that you were her mother.”

  “I'm not,” said his neighbor, “I'm her father.”

    We buy our daughter a little dog. There are not many children of her age and we think a dog would make her happy. We are right. They play together happily. Our daughter smiles and laughs a lot more. Both of them are very dirty. But the dog is easier to look after than my daughter. He always eats up all his food and needn't wash his cloths. My wife is also very happy because I don't smoke any more. The dog doesn't like the smell.

    Sarah went to Shanghai with her parents over the summer vacation. They went there by plane. On Monday afternoon, they went to a beautiful beach. The weather was sunny and hot. So they had a great time in the water. In the evening, they went to a shopping center but it was too crowded. They didn't enjoy themselves. On Tuesday they took a visit to a museum. It was so boring. It was windy and rainy on Wednesday and Thursday, so they stayed at the hotel for two days. On Friday they went to a zoo and saw many animals. It was really fun. And then they came back home by train.
