A Sports Festival

Today is Monday. The sky is very blue. A Sports Festival in our school is coming. On the playground, there are many students and players. Some football players are playing football over there, and many students are watching. Near the field, the boys are playing basketball.

There is a big tree near the office building. Under the tree, some girls are playing table tennis. Ann, Sue and many other girls are playing volleyball beside the tree. Look! There are some boys in the tree. They are watching their classmates playing volleyball.

Hello, my name is Zhang Peng. My school is very big and beautiful. The teachers’ office is on the first floor. The library is on the second floor. The music rooms are on the third floor and the fourth floor. My classroom is on the fifth floor. There is a big garden in our school. In the garden, there are many beautiful flowers, grass and trees. There is a big playground in my school. We often play basketball on the playground.

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!

The students were having their chemistry class, Miss Li was telling the children what water was like. After that, she asked her students, “What’s water like?” No one answered. Miss Li asked again, “ Why don’t you answer my question? Didn’t I tell you what water is like?”

Just then a boy put up his hand and said, “Miss Li, you told us that water has no colour and no smell. But where can we find such kind of water? The water in the river behind my house is always black and it has a bad smell.” Most of the children agreed with him.

“I’m sorry, children,” said the teacher. “Our water is getting dirtier and dirtier. That’s a problem.”
