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.

    Hello, everyone. I'm Kate. Today is Sunday. I get up at half past seven in the morning. Then I have breakfast. After that I play in the garden. At twelve I have lunch at home. Then I play a game with Linda. At eight in the evening, I do my homework. It's a busy day today!

    Isaac Newton was a famous scientist. He was born in England in 1642. When he was a child, he was very quiet. He was always thinking about things. One day he was reading a book under an apple tree. He saw an apple fall from the tree. He thought, "Why do apples fall? What makes them fall?" He was the first person to find out why.

    Spring is coming. What a nice season!

    The weather is getting warmer and warmer. The flowers are coming out. How beautiful the world is! Look around! The sky is blue and the trees are turning green. The sun is shining brightly and the air is so fresh. Now people take off (脱下) warm coats. People can fly kites in the park.

    A good beginning is half done and it's the first season in the year. We must make the best use of our time and catch every second to work and study. Do you think so?
