My name is Tom. I'm a student. My school is not very big, but very beautiful. Look, this is my classroom. It's very bright. There is a computer on the teacher's desk. There are 46 students in my class. 22 girls and 24 boys. My school has two libraries. The big one is for the students. The small one is for the teachers. There's a big playground in the school. I like to play football there. I like my school very much.

    Mr. Black is a teacher. He lives in the school. His house is near the school playground. The children often play football on the playground. Sometimes they break Mr. Black's windows.

    One afternoon, Mrs. Black is at home. She is reading a book. Soon she closes her eyes and goes to sleep. At that time, a little boy knock at the door. Mrs. Black opens the door and asks, "Do you break my window again'?"

    "Oh, no," answers the boy. "Your window is open this time. Our football is in your room. Can I get it back, please?"

The cat is calling you

    Mrs. Brown has a young cat, and it is the cat's first winter. One evening the cat is outside when it is snowing heavily. Mrs. Brown looks for(寻找) it everywhere and shouts the cat's name. But she can't find it. So she telephones the police and says, "I lost(丢失）a small black cat. Does anybody find one?" "No. But cats are strong animals. They can live in the snow for days."

    She feels very happy when she hears this, "And my cat is very clever. She almost talks. "

    "Why don't you put your telephone down? Perhaps your cat is trying to telephone you now," says the policeman.
