Good morning, boys and girls. Here is something important about 1 to London next month. Now, the most important thing is 2. You should take about £600 with you. I think that will be 3. When you get to 4, your new family will 5 you. You must wear a red shirt, 6 the family can find you easily. You should also take four photos of yourself with you. Of course, please 7 the school letter. It's very important. When you are there, if you have any question, you can call School Office. I'll give you the office 8 now. It's 5210663. The person to ask for is Mrs. Green. 9 in the office from 9:00 a. m. 105: 00 p. m. every day. OK. That's everything. Have a good journey!
Can you make a telephone call? Of course you can make it in Chinese, but maybe you cannot make it in English?
The call in English is quite different from the one in Chinese. If you want to ask someone to answer the telephone, you can't say "Please ask Mr.…to answer the telephone. " Instead (反而), you must say "May I speak to Mr.…?" If you want to ask who is answering the telephone, you should say "Who is that? Is that Mr.…speaking?" instead of "Who are you?" If you want to tell the other one who you are, you should say "This is…speaking. " instead of "I'm…".
On Friday afternoon, Mr. Tian, the Chinese teacher asks his students to write an article (文章). The title (主题) is My Beautiful Mother. Mr. Tian says to the students, "You can go home after you finish (结束) it."
All the students except (除了) Li Hong begin to write. They want to go home early. Li Hong is sitting there and thinks about other things. She usually plays basketball on Monday afternoon if it is sunny. She plays volleyball on Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday she plays tennis. She often plays table tennis on Thursday. And she likes playing football on Friday afternoon.
She raises her head and looks around. There are only five students except her in the classroom. Forty students hand in (上交) their articles and leave (离开) for home. She is a little worried (担心).
She thinks it over, and then, she has a good idea. She writes down the words on the paper: My mother is a tall and healthy woman. She is really beautiful. If you look at her daughter, you can know all about her.
Today it is dusty outside. The wind is whipping (拍打) at the earth and sending clouds of brown dirt all around the town.
I sit here on the doorstep and watch people come back from work.
Finally, I see Grandma carrying her basket. She is covered in dust and looks tired, but she smiles when she sees me. "What are you up to, Kemzie?" she asks.
"Waiting for you! I say. "I want you to come and help me plant trees. " "Trees?" asks Grandma.
I tell Grandma that someone came to speak to us at school today about tree planting. I tell her I want to help out in the nursery(苗圃) just out of town where they grow the trees.
"We need the trees to give us wood, shade and fruit, and to help keep the Earth well," I say quickly.
Grandma laughs and puts her basket down. "You go if you want, but I have to make dinner," she says.
For a moment I feel bad. I shouldn't leave Grandma now. I should help her chop wood for the fire and cook the food she got at the market. Since Mum and Dad died, Grandma has been looking after all our family. It's hard work for her.

I see the nursery (苗圃). It is like a sea of green. There are trees of all kinds, and a huge vegetable garden. I step inside the gate. It is quiet here, and it smells so good.
A voice says, "Hello! I saw you at school today." I whip around to see the person who came to talk to me. She came to talk to my class today.
"Welcome," she says, holds out (伸出) her hand. "I am Makena."
"I'm Kemzie," I say.
At the back of the nursery, people are putting small trees into bags. One of them is my friend, Anne. We help put the trees on the back of a truck.
Makena comes and gives us some drinks and bananas. We sit down.
"When I first come here," says Makena, "there is nothing, just dirt (泥土). We make a dam (大坝) and there's a lot of water now, then we make a small nursery and grow our first trees. "
Makena says again. "Years ago, this country is very green. But people start to cut down trees to make way for farms, and soon it becomes a dry, dusty (有灰尘的) place. People don't understand how much we need the trees. "

Dear Lisa,
It isn't a long way from my home to the city library. I always do my homework or read books there at weekend.
……
The library is a good place to read books and meet friends. Come and have a visit! I hope you will love it.
Yours,
Amy
