Mrs Green has a little dog. One day the dog is lost, and it's snowing outside. Mrs Green looks for it everywhere but she can't find it. She calls the police. A young policeman answers the phone, "Don't worry, madam.

    Dogs are really strong animals. They can live for several days in the snow and be all right."

    Mrs Green is happy to hear the words. She says, "My dog is very clever. She almost can talk." "Well," the policeman says, "why don't you put your telephone down? Perhaps she is trying to telephone you now."

    Hello! My name is Jenny. I'm ten. I'm a student. This is my mother. She can cook. But she can't draw. She likes grapes. But she doesn't like oranges. This is my father. He can't fly. But he can swim. He likes noodles. But he doesn't like bread. This is my sister. She's three. She can sing. But she can't read. She likes ice cream. But she doesn't rice. What about me? I can read. But I can't swim. I like peaches. But I don't like pears.

    Mike's school sent him an invitation.

Dear Friends,

    It is time to leave our school. We are all going to middle school soon, so we will say goodbye to each other. We are going to have a farewell party. You can bring your friends.

Place: Our music room

Time: Friday 3 pm

Activities:

    We will draw pictures and sing songs. We are going to give prizes for the best pictures. We are going to have cakes, candy and juice, too. Yum!

    We will also give prizes to our good students. Who studied hard? Who wrote the best story? Who did the best homework?

    We will listen to music, play games and dance. It will be great fun.

    See you at the party!

    It is rainy. Joe and Jean are at home. They are playing games. Dad is writing a letter. Mum is working.

    "Oh, no. The noise is big. Your father and I can't work," Mrs. Brown says. "Please be quiet. Please go to your room."

    Now Joe and Jean are in their room. Joe is playing the violin. Jean is playing the flute.

    The noise is even bigger. So Mrs. Brown says, "Go and play games instead."
