The birthday party begins at 5:30 pm. First, they light the candles on the cake. Then they sing the birthday song. Lisa makes a wish. Then she blows out the candles. After that, Lisa cuts the cake.

I have a good friend. His name is David. He is twelve years old. He is a student. He gets up at 6:40 in the morning. He has breakfast at 7:00. He goes to school at 8:00. David has four lessons in the morning. He has lunch at school at 12:00. School is over at 3:30. He goes home at 4:00. His mother cooks dinner. He has dinner at 7:00 in the evening. After dinner, he often plays chess(下棋)with his farther. Sometimes he plays computer games. His mother often reads English stories to him before he goes to bed. David loves his farther and mother very much.

Jack and his mother are sitting at the table. They are having lunch.

“I don’t like this soup. I don’t want to eat it,” says Jack and he puts down the spoon（汤匙）. “All right,” says his mother. “Don’t eat it.”

After lunch Jack and his mother work in the field. They work so hard.

In the evening, Jack’s mother gives him a bowl of soup. “Oh, this soup is delicious,” says Jack. “It is the same soup,” says his mother.

My family

I am Tom. I’m eleven years old. I live near the school. I go to school every day. In my family there are three people. My father, my mother and I. My father is a bus driver. He is friendly. He has a lot of friends. My mother is a teacher. She works at my school. She does housework every day. I love them.

This is my room. Near the window there is a desk. I often do my homework at it. You can see some books, some flowers in a vase, a ruler and a pen. On the wall near the desk there is a picture of a cat. There is a clock above the end of my bed. I usually put my football under my bed. Of course there is a chair in front of the desk. I sit there and I can see the trees and roads outside.

We have twenty minutes’ rest between classes. Look! Most of us are playing during the rest time. Some students are on the playground. They are having a basketball game. Oh! A boy is running with a ball. And another is trying to stop him. They are so cool. And there are some girls watching the game. Some students are in the classroom. They are talking. A few of them are reading or doing homework. Look! A girl is looking at the birds in a tree in front of the classroom. She must be thinking of something interesting because she is smiling.What are the teachers doing? Do you know? Some of them are working in the office, and some are talking with students. Everyone is busy with his or her things. Busy and happy!
