    Every school has its own rules. How many1 are there in your school? At some schools, the students2to wear uniforms on school days. But many students don't want to wear the school uniforms. They think the uniforms are the ugly3. But the school doesn't allow students to wear4own clothes at school. So some students draw cartoons or other famous singers on their5. They think it is very6 that all the students wear the same. It isn't very good that teachers and students are wearing7 . But most of the students8the rules. What do you think9?

Dear Mom,

    I'm happy to get your letter (信). I'm very well at school. Do you want to know about my after class time? Well, the classes finish at half past four. We have different activities (不同的活动) after class. I usually go to the library and read books on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's relaxing. I usually play ping­pong with my classmates on Wednesdays. I'm not good at it, but I like it. On Fridays, I always go to the art club, because I like drawing. I can draw dogs well now. We usually have dinner at six o'clock.

    In the evening, we study in the classroom from 7：00 to 8：30. We usually do our homework. Science is difficult, but my friend Alan helps me with it. I often either listen to music or talk with my roommates (室友) before bedtime (就寝前). Then we go to bed at ten o'clock.

    Remember (记得) to pick me up (接我) at five o'clock on Friday afternoon.

Yours,

Cindy

    Toby, an 11-year old boy, is playing with a ball. The ball goes into the street and Toby runs for the ball.

    A car hits（碰撞） Toby. An ambulance（救护车） takes Toby to the hospital in 30 minutes. The doctors at the hospital tell Toby's parents, "Toby is in a coma."

    Every day, Toby's parents visit him at the hospital. They sit next to Toby's bed and talk to him. But Toby never talks to them. He just sleeps.

   One day Toby's father says, "Wake up, Toby. Wake up, come home and play with Rusty." Rusty is Toby's dog.

    When Toby's father says "Rusty", Toby moves his arm（胳膊）. "Rusty!" Toby's father says again. Again, Toby moves his arm.

    Toby's parents have an idea. They tell the nurse,

    "We want to bring Toby's dog to the hospital." The nurse says "OK".

    The next day, Toby's parents bring Rusty to the hospital. When they put the dog on Toby's bed, Toby opens his eyes and hugs the dog.

    Toby's parents bring Rusty to the hospital every day. One day, Rusty jumps onto Toby's bed and scratches（抓） his arm. Toby says his first words, "Bad dog!"

    After eight weeks, Toby is well. He leaves the hospital and goes home.

    Bob comes out of the station and at once（立刻） he doesn't know where to go. This is the first time he comes to this town. He comes to see his good friend, Peter. Peter is a worker. He works in a factory. But Bob doesn't know where the factory is.

    He walks in the streets. He passes（经过） a hospital, a post office, a bookshop and at last he gets to a school. Some students are coming out. So he asks one of them for help. "Excuse me. Do you know where the watch factory is?"

    "Of course, I know. I live near there. My father works there. It's outside this town." answers the boy.

    "Is it far from here? Can you show me the way, please?" Bob asks again.

    "It's about 8 kilometres away from here. I'm going home now. Will you go with me? I'll take you there."

    "That's great! Thank you very much!"

    "Now let's take a No. 10 bus. It'll take about 15minutes to get there."

    "It's very kind of you." says Bob.

    I live in a quiet neighborhood. There are only two       （street）in my neighborhood. One is Lincoln Street. The other is Jefferson Street. There       a library and a small park between these two streets.

    You can see lots of young people       （read）in the library. They read books there       they can't take them home. I usually go there with Mike on weekends. We like       our homework in it because it is quiet. And we often meet Linda and Tina there. After finishing our homework, all of us can go to the park to have       （funny）.

    My father takes the subway to work every day. His office is about five miles away from home. It takes him about ten minutes. He likes it because it's very fast. …
