Hi, everyone. My name is Guo Yang. I'm eleven years old. I come from China. It's a big country. My family lives in Beijing. We speak Chinese. Beijing is a great city. It has Tian'anmen Square, the Palace Museum and the Great Wall. It's the capital city of China. The flag of China is red. There are five yellow stars on it.

Tomorrow we will go to Hainan. It's warm there. We will have a special Chinese New Year's Day. Now let's get ready! We need three tickets from Shijiazhuang to Hainan. We don't need winter clothes. I want a beautiful dress. My parents take some T-shirts and shorts. We need to take milk, cakes and fruit. We need three hats. The sun is very hot there. We don't want to turn black. That's all done.

    The students take many nice photos at Century Park. Jill, Alice and Rose are showing them.

Rose: Look, these are my photos. This is Peter. He has a cap. It's yellow. He is beside the pond. He's watching the ducks and the fish. They are swimming in the water.

Jill: These are my photos. Look, Kitty is in the plant house. She is drawing a big tree near the flowers. Miss Fang is helping her.

Rose: Look at my photos. Steven and Jim are near the fountain. The fountain is small, but it's nice. They are sleeping under the big tree.

    Sam and May are cousins. Sam is very fat because he likes eating very much but he doesn't like sports. May is a thin girl because she doesn't like to eat. One day they met in a McDonald's. Sam wanted both the small and the big French fries, and he wanted the Big-Mac and a big cup of coke. He ate them up in a short time. But he still felt hungry. May bought only a small packet of French Fries and a small hamburger. Though Sam and May are cousins, they are different.
