Are you looking for something different to do this weekend? Let's see what these teenagers are going to do.
Gina was reading a book. Joe began telling another of his stories.
"Oh, be quiet, Joe," said Gina, finally put down her book. "I do listen to you sometimes. But I'm getting a little tired of your stories. They are boring." Joe had a sad look on his face. Gina's words hurt his feelings.
Gina tried to break the ice. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I'm as bored as you are after Mom told us that we couldn't go on our vacation. I am reading a book to kill time."
Joe was still upset. "How can I be a famous writer if I can't even get my sister to listen to my stories?"
"I have an idea," Gina said. "Why don't you write a story about me, Joe? You know me well, and you have many things to write about. Before you write, you should think about your stories carefully. That way you can have a clear mind. Also, while you are writing, things will be quiet, and I can read. Then you can share your stories with me later." Joe agreed.

There once lived an old man and his little grandson in a village. The old man was a big of reading. Every day, he got up early to read. his grandson noticed this, he also wanted to read. The old man was very happy and often him to read.
One day, the grandson said to his grandfather, "Grandpa, I want to read as you do, but I don't understand it, and I always forget what I read if I close the book. Is reading really good for me?"
The grandfather pointed at a dirty coal basket (煤筐) and said in a(n) voice, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring back a basket of water."
The boy to the river and did as his grandfather told him, but all the water leaked out(漏出) before he returned home.
The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to walk much next time." This time the boy ran as fast as he could his home after he filled the coal basket with water, but all the water still leaked out.
"Check the coal basket, and you'll find it clean now. It isn't a dirty coal basket . That's what happens when you read a book. You might not understand or remember everything, the words in the book will change you inside and out," the old man said to his grandson.
If someone said the words "subway fan" to you, what kind of person would you picture? A young man who often travels with a heavy bag? An old person who has a map in his hands? People may have different answers. I guess few would picture a young kid. But the story of six-year-old Lewis Wing will make you surprised.
Lewis lives in London. He remembers the map of the city's subway well and has visited all its 272 subway stations so far. His love for the subway started when he was very young. His parents have taken him on the subway since he was a baby. Each trip made his love for it grow stronger and stronger, and he started asking to visit stations.
The family took pictures of Lewis at every station they visited. When he was three years old, Lewis made a plan to visit all the stations in London. It took the boy about three or four years to finish the challenge.
Lewis hopes to break the world record for the youngest person to visit all of London's subway stations. He is now waiting to hear back from Guinness World Records on whether he's made it.
Looking back at his journey, Lewis said his favorite stations are Sudbury Town and Stratford. Sudbury Town has a wonderful design (设计) on the outside and Stratford looks nice on the inside
