There are many apple trees in a garden. They're good friends. One day an old tree is ill. There are many pests in the tree. Leaves of the tree turn yellow. The old tree feels very sad and unwell. Other trees send for a doctor for him. At first, they send for a pigeon, but she has no idea about it. Then they send for an oriole(黄鹂), and she can't treat the old tree well either. Then they send for a woodpecker. She is a good doctor. She pecks a hole in the tree and eats lots of pests. At last the old tree becomes better and better. Leaves turn green and green.

    There are four seasons in a year．They are spring，summer，autumn and winter．Spring is green with flowers．I can plant trees in spring．Summer is hot．I can swim in the sea．In autumn,farmers are busy．I can eat moon cakes and pick apples in autumn．But I like winter best．Winter is cold．Sometimes it snows．I often skate in winter．Sometimes l make a snowman．

The cat is calling you

    Mrs. Brown has a young cat, and it is the cat's first winter. One evening the cat is outside when it is snowing heavily. Mrs. Brown looks for(寻找) it everywhere and shouts the cat's name. But she can't find it. So she telephones the police and says, "I lost(丢失）a small black cat. Does anybody find one?" "No. But cats are strong animals. They can live in the snow for days."

    She feels very happy when she hears this, "And my cat is very clever. She almost talks. "

    "Why don't you put your telephone down? Perhaps your cat is trying to telephone you now," says the policeman.

    This is Jim's school. There are 2100 pupils in the school. There is a very big playground in his school. There are lots of trees around the playground. So many students in the school like to play ball games on the playground. There are two tall buildings in the school. All of the pupils have classes there. And there is a library. It opens at eight every morning and closes at five every afternoon.

    "Oh, my son!" a lady cried. Her baby fell into the river. The water carried him away quickly. A man came and said, "Can you give me the clothes or shoes of your son?

    The lady gave him a pair of shoes. The man turned to his dog. He first pointed to the shoes, and then to where the child had sunk(下沉).

    The dog jumped into the river. Soon people saw him swim back with something in his mouth. When people pulled the child and the dog from the water, everyone was happy. The lady ran to her son. The child was alive! "Oh, sir. Thanks for saving my baby. I'd love to give you anything to buy the dog!"

    It seemed that the dog knew they were talking about him. He lay down beside his owner's feet and seemed to say, "Nothing shall part(分开)."
