Summer Holidays(暑假) in England

    With July coming, the summer holidays begin. Boys and girls will have 60 days to rest. The weather is good. Parents will take their children to the seaside(海边) for the holidays. The children like the sand(沙子), the sun, the cool wind and the water. Certainly there are lots of things to see, good things to eat, and exciting things to do. They can play ball games. They can go on field trips, too. They study real things on the field trips. What good holidays!

    Hello! My name is Sarah. I am 9 years old. How old are you? This is a pencil box. I like it. This is my brother. He is John. He likes blue. Thank you!

    This is Kitty. She likes reading books. She goes to the school library on Monday afternoon. She likes sports too. She plays volleyball with her friends on Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday and Thursday, she plays the piano after school. On Friday evening, she plays games at home. At the weekend, she goes to the park with Jill.

Amy: Today is Sunday. Let's go to the nature park.

Mike: Great! Is there a forest in the park?

Amy: Yes, there is. There is a lake, too. There are many boats on the lake.

Mike: Are there many birds in the forest?

Amy: Yes, there are. And there are many plants in the forest.

Mike: Yeah! Let's go.

One fine Sunday morning, Robert would like to go fishing in a river nearby. He says goodbye to his mother and goes out. When he gets to the river, he finds some other boys there. They try to catch fish, but there are not a lot of fish in the river. Robert catches only one. Happily, he puts in into his jar with some water.

In the afternoon, he sees more fish in the river. Quickly he takes off his shoes and walks into the water. He put his nets into the river. But the fish swim away. When he gets back to the jar, he doesn't see the fish.

He gets home late with nothing in the jar. His mother asks him, "Do you have a good time?" Robert answers, "No, but the fish does."
