It's Sunday morning. Peter and his friends had a great plan for the weekend, but the weather is bad.

Sarah: We have to change (改变) our plan for the weekend. What about going to the museum?

Sheila: I' m sorry. I don't want to go to the museum.

John: Well, how about going to the cinema?

Peter: That's a good idea. What's on at the Palladium?

Sarah: Smurfs The Lost village. It's a very interesting new cartoon movie.

Peter: How boring! I always feel bored with such cartoon movies. I think they are for little kids.

Peter: OK. Action movies are my favorite.

It's Sunday afternoon and the weather is sunny and hot, My friends and I are in a large and beautiful park. We' re having a good time. 

Jack and Tom are swinging. Steve, Alice, John and Tim are playing hide-and-seek (捉迷藏). Rose, Mary and Lisa are skipping (跳绳). They re good at skipping. Susan is reading a book. Tina and Kate are chasing after my pet dog. They 're running around happily. 

We can see a lot of people in the park. Some are running and some are walking slowly. Look!

A boy and a girl are drawing pictures. Their parents are sitting next to them. They' re talking about something. 

Everyone is having a good time in the park. The park is a great place to have fun. 

Ding Chen, a teenager from Anhui Taihe No. 3 Middle School, invented (发明)a machine for the old to climb the stairs. And he1 the International Youth Gold Medal for his invention.

The Ding family lived in an old building,2 they had to climb stairs every day. His grandpa had difficulty climbing up the 3 . It became even 4 after he fell ill. When Ding Chen was a five-grader, he wanted to invent something for his grandpa to go up the stairs more5 .

Three years later, 13-year-old Ding 6 this problem. He invented a booster (助力器). People just need to set it on the stair railing (扶手) and hold it. Then it will pull people to go up. Ding's middle school teacher Zhang Gang helped him make his idea real.7 worked for about half a year to design the booster.

8 , Ding will try to make his invention perfect. If possible, he wants to find companies to9 it in the factories.

"I hope my invention can help all the people in 10 ," he said.

Respecting teachers has always been a tradition in China. Once there was a man who wanted to learn from a famous

philosopher(哲学家),.One day, he and his schoolmates had different opinions on a question. To get a1 answer, he went to visit the philosopher. In front of the door of the philosopher's house,2 the guarding kid told him that the philosopher was meditating(冥想)in his room and asked the man to go back. He 3 to leave, so the little boy left him alone and went in.

After a while, it began to snow4 . The little boy came out again and reminded the man that the philosopher might spend the whole afternoon meditating. He invited the man to,5 himself in the house to avoid the wind and snow. But the man kept standing in the snow and waiting outside in order that he could ask the philosopher's 6 on the question.

As soon as the philosopher finished meditating, the boy reported that the man was waiting outside. When 7 this. the philosopher came out to see the man. When the door was opened, everyone was 8 . The snow was more than a foot deep, but the man stood still9 moving his feet, "* Young man, why are you so silly? You could have come again someday! " The philosopher took the man to the room at once.

"As a student… if l want to learn from the teacher… l should ... of course…respectfully wait outside.." said the man, shaking with cold.

The philosopher was very happy and accepted the man as his student because of his politeness and effort to learn. He taught the man all his philosophical thoughts, That made a big,10 to the man's life. Later, the man really learned a lot and made great contributions (贡献)to his country.

Before going back to work one afternoon, Policeman Li took a big bite out of the red apple on his desk. He had no time to eat his lunch that day. He was busy dealing with a traffic accident report. 

It seemed that a man named Wang Jie had run a red light, running into another person's car. But he said that the light had been green when he drove across the crossing. 

Li decided to question Wang Jie again. Maybe he could get some more information about the accident. This time Wang Jie still insisted (坚持) that the light was green when he drove across the crossing. Li had no reason to doubt what Wang Jie said. He told Wang Jie that he was free to go. 

"Thank you so much, Policeman Li. By the way, that green apple on your desk looks delicious! I hope you enjoy it!" Wang Jie said with a smile. 

Li stopped for a moment and then said, "Wait. Sit back down. I think we need to talk some more."
