Many years ago there was a poor man. He had1his garden, an orange tree. On the tree there were many fine oranges.2he found one 3his oranges was much bigger4the others. It was as 5as a football. Nobody had ever seen6orange. The poor man took the orange to the king(国王). The king was so happy7he gave the man a lot of money for it.

    When a rich man heard of it, he said to himself, "It's only an orange. Why has the king given so much money8it? I'll take my gold (金子) cup to the king. He'll give me9money."

    The next day when the king received the gold cup, he said to the rich man, "What a beautiful cup! I'll show you 10, please take this great orange."

    It was 1 birthday.She got a letter from her uncle.“Dear Mary，” he wrote in the letter.“Happy birthday.I'm sending you some 2 .They will arrive tomorrow.I hope you'll like them.”

    Mary was very 3 .She liked eating eggs and chicken.“I can keep the chickens 4 their eggs or eating them，”she thought.

    When the chickens arrived the next day，they were put in a box.She took the box off the truck and began to carry it into her garden，but the box was so heavy that she dropped(掉)5.

    The box fell on the ground and broke open.The chickens all 6 out.They ran here and there.Mary 7 hours in trying to find them.8 few days later her uncle came.He asked，“Did the chickens arrive safely？”“Yes，but I dropped the box.It broke open and the chickens ran everywhere.9 took me the whole morning to 10 them，”Mary said.

    “Did you find them all？”asked her uncle.“I hope so，”Mary answered，“but I only caught eleven of them.”

    “That's very interesting.I only sent you six，” her uncle said with a smile.

    Last weekend, the four members of my family spent an excellent holiday at the Magic Kingdom-Disneyland. And one thing made our visit seem1.

    We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain, only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her2on the ride. It is our first time to be there, so we were too3to remember that ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.

    Gloria started4and we all didn't know what to do. Then Tony, one of the staff（员）members, came over. He bent（弯腰）down and told Gloria that he would   5the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride. Gloria said, "Really?" Then she gave Tony her ice-cream, and enjoyed6on the ride.

    Sure enough, when we7, there was Gloria's new friend8her "ice-cream". Now you and I both know what happened, 9we know that an ice-cream won't last thirty10on a summer afternoon in Florida. Tony knew clearly11we would get off the ride. He went to the nearest shop and12a new ice-cream half a minute before we walked out of the exit（出口）. Gloria said, " 13" But I'm sure she didn't know it was a14ice-cream.

    Thanks so much for giving us15and make our visit pleasant!
