    Hello, I am Linda. I have a garden. There are many trees and flowers in it. I like smelling flowers. Look at the tree. It's a gift from my grandmother on Children's Day. At first(起初), it's small and short. It has two small leaves. I water it every day. The tree grows and grows. It has some big leaves. Now it has three pink flowers. They are beautiful. I like these beautiful flowers very much.

    Christmas is a special Western(西方的) festival. Before Christmas, people send Christmas cards to their family and friends. They buy Christmas trees and put them in their homes. They also buy presents and put them under the Christmas trees. Family members often open their presents on Christmas Eve or on Christmas Day. Then the family get together(团聚) and have a big family dinner.

    Some students are not happy today. Amy is angry, because she can't go to the park and have a picnic on the weekend. What should she do? She should take a deep breath and count to ten. Tony wants to be strong, but he is thin now. So he should do more exercise. What's wrong with Mary? She is ill. She should see a doctor. And John thinks he gets a cold. He should wear warm clothes.
