I'm Lili. Today is my sister's birthday. My sister is very happy. Because she has got a new book. This book is about animals. She likes it very much. Mother buys a big cake. The cake is for my sister. My mother, my father and I sing the birthday song. And my sister has got a new bike, too. She likes flying kites.

Amy, can I ask you a question?

Are there many children in your class?

Yes, there are forty-three.

There are twenty boys.

How many boys?

Of course!

And how many girls?

There are twenty-three.

Oh, thank you.

Bookshelf (书架)

    Our classroom is bright and clean. But it is not big. There are twenty-three desks and chairs in it. They are new. There's a big desk in front of the classroom. It's for our teacher's. There are five pictures on the right wall. There is a map of the world and a map of China on the left wall.

    Beside the window there is a bookshelf. There are many books on it. Our classroom is very nice. We have lessons here. We like our classroom.
