Look at that boy. His name is Liu Bing. He's a Chinese boy. He is in the kitchen. He likes apples. Su Yang is at home too. She is in the study. She likes drawing. Is Gao Shan at home? No, he is in the park. He is thirsty. He wants to drink some juice. Miss Li is in the office. She is reading.

When the rabbit first saw the tiger, he was frightened(害怕的). He ran away, and hid himself(他自己) in the woods. The second time, however, he came near the tiger. He stopped at a safe distance(距离). Then he watched the tiger pass by.

The third time, they came near one another. The rabbit went straight up to the tiger. He stayed the

whole day with the tiger. He asked the tiger how his family was, and when they would meet again.

They soon became good friends.

   It’s Sunday today. I don’t go to school. I have a violin lesson in the morning. I often play football with my friend in the afternoon. In the evening, I watch TV or go to the cinema with my dad.
