Hello! My name is Kim. I'm from the U. S. I am a tall girl. I like basketball best. I often play basketball with my friends on the playground. We have two teams—the White Team and the Yellow Team. I am on the Yellow Team. Each team has five players. My favourite basketball player is Yao Ming. I like him best and I want to be a basketball player like him.

    Ben and Jim are twin brothers. They are nine. They are pupils. They study in Yuxin Primary School. They are in the same class. Everyday they go to school and come back together.

    Their teacher, Mrs. Green, says to the pupils. Please write a composition (作文) 'My Mother'.

    Jim is a good boy. He writes the composition at home. But Ben plays football with his friends. The next day Mrs Green says to the class, “I read your compositions today. But two of yours are just the same.” Ben stands up and says, “Jim and I are twins. We have the same mother.”

    Good morning, boys and girls. Shanghai is a big city. Nanjing Road is in the centre of Shanghai. It is very busy. Every day many people go to Nanjing Road. They like visiting the shops. They can buy clothes, clocks and watches, food and many other things there. They can also eat in the restaurants or stay in the hotels there.

    Many people visit Nanjing Road in the evening. The lights are bright and beautiful then.

    Shanghai is very nice. I live in Shanghai. I like Shanghai very much.

    The Spring Festival was on February 16th this year. On the eve of the Spring Festival, we had a big dinner. After dinner, I put on my new clothes and went out to watch fireworks. Wow! How colourful and beautiful they were! So we took some photos. After that we went home happily. At twelve o'clock, we cheered to welcome New Year and wished each other good luck. During the Spring Festival, I got lots of red packets. My favourite festival is the Spring Festival.

    I'm Peter. I'm from the UK. I have a brother. His name is Jim. He is taller than me, but I am older than him. We are helpful. We often clean the room and wash the clothes on the weekend. He likes playing computer games. I like playing computer games, too. But he plays better than me. He also likes reading. He often goes the bookstore and the library. After dinner, we usually read books. Sometimes we go for a walk. We always have a good time together. Do you have a brother or sister? Can you tell me about him/her?
