My name is Lily White. I don't have a brother, but I have a sister. Her name is Lucy.

    Green is Lucy's favorite color. Her bed and sofas are green. Lucy isn't a tidy girl. This is her room. Her radio and schoolbag are on the bed. She has three baseballs. Two baseballs are on the floor(地板) . Can you find the third(第三) one? Her pencil box and clock are on the table. And her model plane is on the sofa. Where is her ruler? Oh, it's under the table.

    When you are ill, you should go to see a doctor. After the doctor looks you over, he will write you a note to take to the chemist for some medicine. Chemists are usually good at reading doctors' notes. But sometimes doctors write too badly and even the chemist can not read them.

    One day a woman wrote to a doctor to invite him to have dinner with her family in the restaurant. The doctor wrote an answer, but he wrote too badly and the woman could not read it. "What shall I do?" she asked her husband, "I don't know whether he is going to come or not. I don't want to call and say that I don't understand him."

    Her husband thought for a few minutes and then he had an idea. "Take it to the chemist," he said, "He will be able to read it for us."

    "Thank you," the woman said, "That's a good idea." She went to the chemist's shop and gave the doctor's note to him. The chemist looked at it for a long time.

    "Could you wait a moment, Miss?" he said. Then he went to the back of the shop. After a few minutes he came back, carrying a large bottle. He gave the bottle to the woman.

    "Take one spoonful(一匙) every day." He told the woman.

In the past, I thought I was terrible at many things, such as maths, French and science.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}I was good at drawing, I wasn't the best in my art class. I {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(want) to find out who I was, what I liked and how I could do it well. So, in that winter, I took {#blank#}3{#/blank#}notebook and kept my diary. When I filled that notebook, I started another one, and then another.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(keep) a diary helps me a lot. Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel much {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(good). It helps people remember what once happened such as {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( dream ), friendships and happiness. Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(they) and move on. Personally, I learn more about myself and my relationships with others {#blank#}8{#/blank#}keeping a diary. For example, if I want to compare myself with my classmates, I'll write something like, "I might not have clear skin, but I {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(true) like my eyes."

Right now, you might be thinking: It sounds great, {#blank#}10{#/blank#}I'm not a good writer; or I'd love to keep a diary, but my handwriting is terrible, Don't worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework — there are no rules, so do whatever you feel best.

Here's a picture of my family. Today {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) the Dragon Boat Festival, we are all at home. My mom and grandmother {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (make) zongzi but my dad and grandfather are watching the boat races on TV. Do you know what I'm doing? I'm talking {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the phone to my cousin in Thailand. But there isn't a Dragon Boat Festival in Thailand, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} it's like any other day for my cousin. He misses his family and wishes {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (have) his mom's delicious zongzi. Now my cousin is studying in Thailand. He tells {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (I) that the elephant is one of Thailand's symbols. Elephants are smart animals. They {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (play) soccer or music. They can also draw very {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (good). People say that " {#blank#}9{#/blank#} elephant never forgets". They can also remember places with food and water. This helps them to live. But elephants are in great {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (dangerous) because people cut down many trees and kill them for their ivory. We must take action to save them. We share(分享) a blue sky together.

Peggy used to say very little with others. But that all changed when her family moved to a new house.

When they got there, she found 1 old book outside their house. To 2 surprise, the book shone(发光) in the dark. "How strange! What is the book 3 ?" she asked her parents, but they had no idea.

That night, she started reading the book with her pet dog beside her. But she could hardly understand it. Just then, her dog started speaking, "4 interesting book you've found!" She couldn't believe it, 5 the dog continued telling her all kinds of interesting things. After some time, she asked, "So how can you be talking?" "I don't know." said the dog.

Peggy 6 to find out the truth. So she showed the book to some other animals. All of them started talking with her 7 a friendly way, telling her some pretty interesting stories.

During the next several days, Peggy was having fun with her new friends. However, one day, the book disappeared and so did the "voices of the animals". She 8 looked everywhere, but she couldn't find 9 the book was.

When she returned to school again, Peggy was surprised 10 most of her schoolmates special. Little by little, she started talking more to them. And now she has got more friends than anyone else in school.
