    Hello. I am Jack. I come from America. I like Chinese food very much. I often have mutton, tofu, fish and cabbage in Chinese restaurant. My favourite fruit is apples, because they are sweet. But my brother doesn't like apples. He likes oranges and grapes. I like Chinese class, because my Chinese teacher is very funny. I have four Chinese classes every week. I have many Chinese books on my shelf.

    Hello, I am John. I don't like July. It's too hot. The sun shines and shines. I like March. In March, it's warm. There are beautiful flowers in the park. They are beautiful. There are many bees and butterflies on the flowers. They are singing and dancing. I like black butterflies very much.

    This is my sister, Jane. She doesn't like March. In March, it's rainy and wet. The sky is grey. She likes October. In October, it's cool and dry. She can fly a kite in the park. She can play games with her friends in the park.

    Elephants are mammals. They can be four metres tall. They don't eat meat. They only eat fruit, leaves and grass. They need a lot of food, so they spend most of their time eating. They only sleep for about four hours every night.

    The elephant has two long, white teeth called tusks. It is the only animal with a trunk-a special long nose. The elephant can use its trunk to pick up big tree or a small peanut. The elephant is also the mammal with the biggest ears. They look like two big fans.

    Elephants live in Africa and Asia. They live together in family groups. They are very strong, very smart and of course, very, very big.
