It is a hot day in summer. A lion is walking along a lake. He is looking for something to eat. He is very hungry. A duck is swimming in the river. The lion is very excited to see him. ‘Aha, there is my lunch,' the lion says to himself.

    "Hello, Mr Duck!" "Go away, bad lion!" says the duck. "I have good news for you." "What is it?" asks the duck. "I don't want other animals to hear it. Please come here." says the lion. The duck swims out of the river and runs to the lion. The lion eats him up quickly.

    Do you know Big Ben? Big Ben is not the name of a man. It's the name of a big clock in London. This clock has four faces. So, no matter which direction( 方向) you stand in, you can read the time on the face of Big Ben. The minute hand on each face is about four metres long. If you go to London, you may want to visit the Houses of Parliament(国会大厦). In that place, you will find Big Ben sits at the top of the clock tower. You will probably hear it and see it. The big clock makes such a loud sound. It strikes every quarter of an hour. Big Ben has been the most famous symbol of London.

    Sally is twelve years old. She comes from the US. Now she studies in a primary school in Chengdu. She can speak English and a little Chinese. She has a good friend named Judy. Judy is one year younger than Sally. Judy is from Australia. She can speak Chinese well. So she often helps Sally with Chinese.

    They have different hobbies. Judy likes playing the violin, but Sally doesn't like playing any instruments. She doesn't like music at all. She likes reading novels. Harry Potter is her favourite novel. She would like to read it again.
