—___________

    My class is like (像) a big1. I like all my2. I have3friends in my class. One of them is Suzy, a girl from Nanjing. But now she lives4Yangzhou.

    Suzy is a good student. She learns (学) all her5well. Her favourite thing is6. She thinks books are like food and help her7lot.

    8Wednesday afternoons, she always9to a nursing house (敬老院). Sometimes she10with the old people there. Sometimes she plays some music for them. They enjoy11o Beijing Opera (京剧) very much.

    Suzy is also a good12. She thinks Yang Liping is one of the best dancers in the world. So she often13Yang's shows on TV. Her great dream14 to see Yang Liping, though（尽管）she knows it is15 .

    We often talk about the weather. If we want to know about the weather. We can turn on the radio and listen to the weather report(报告). We can also turn on the TV and watch the Weather Show. And we can ask other people in two different ways, "What's the weather like today?" or "How is the weather today?" Sometimes you can call at 121 for the weather.

    When it's cold, we shiver（颤抖）and need to wear warm clothes and scarves. When it's raining, we need raincoats or umbrellas. When it's hot, we need a cool place and want a cold drink.

    Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying, "Friends are God's way of looking after us." But how do you find real friendship(友谊)and keep it.

    The American writer Sally Seamans tells young students some clever ways to find friends. Sally says finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed(种子)and look after it to make it grow.

    First you should choose(选择)a friend. What is a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient(耐心). For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to your complaints(抱怨)and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you cannot be too shy(害羞). You should make each other happy and share your lives.

    But things cannot always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When there is no other people around you, have an honest(诚实的)talk. If he or she doesn't want to talk, you could write a letter.

    There are three steps to be friends again:

    Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend has done wrong, and explain(解释) why you did this or that. Remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.

    Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because an airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can't open the window. You can't choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.

    I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations (火车站) are usually in cities. When you are late for a train you can catch another one .You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.

    I also like cars. You can start your trip when you want to, and you don't need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.

    Let me tell you about my hometown. I live in Kinsale. It may be one of the smallest towns in Southern Ireland, but it is also the most famous one.

    The fish restaurants are very wonderful and there are many good cooks here. They cook the best fish for the visitors. The food is expensive but people enjoy it very much. So you can see many people from different countries in every restaurant.

    My town is very beautiful because it is by the sea. In summer it is very cool and you can go swimming in the sea. There are three small shops and you can buy your friends many presents there. They are not expensive and you can pay a little money for them.

    The people in my town are friendly. They can make friends with you. If you feel ill, there is a clinic (诊所)with a doctor and a nurse. I'm Andy. You can ask me for help when you have some trouble（困难，麻烦）. I think you will enjoy the holiday.

    There are many words in English, but you can't know eEnglish word. Wyou read, you'll often find many new words you don't know. You'll not have enough tto stop reading and try to fevery new word in a dictionary（词典）. Syou can guess（猜测） the meaning of a new word because you ksome of the parts of the new word. For example, if a word ends in the letters “er”, that w must be the name for a person or a thing that does some action(动作). A writer is a person who writes. Sometimes this is n enough to understand a word, but it will h you know the article(文章) easily when you are r.
