This is a picture. It's a picture of my bedroom. Look at it, please. What can you see in the picture? I can see a bed, a desk and a chair. What can you see on the wall? I can see a map and a kite. What map is it? It's a map of China. I can see a light, some books and some flowers on the desk. Where are my coats and trousers? Oh, they're in the box. You can't see them.

   Look at the picture. We can see a hill in it. On the hill there are some trees. There are some birds in the trees. Behind the trees there is a house. There is a river near the hill. We can see a boat in the river. There are two boys in the boat.

   “Joe,” says his father, “Put on your cap and let us go for a walk.”

   Joe is happy. He likes to go out with his father. He put on his cap and coat and says, “Father, I am ready.” Joe and his father go out into the street. Suddenly they see big black dog. The dog begins to bark. Joe is afraid of the dog. He wants to run away. His father says, “Don't be afraid, Joe, Don't you know the proverb ‘A barking dog does not bite’?”

   “Oh, yes,” says Joe. “I know the proverb, you know the proverb, but doesthe dog know the proverb?”

   “You are right,” says his father. “We had batter be careful about the dog. It is never good to taken an enemy for afriend. But don't be afraid. Let us go on.”

     This is a picture. It's a classroom. It is a big room. In the picture, you can see the teacher's desk, six desks, six chairs and a blackboard. You can see a boy and two girls, too.

    Two books are on the teacher's desk. A pencil box is on the desk. Two pens and a ruler are in the pencil box. A bag is behind a chair.  Two cats are on the blackboard.

    The boy is Jim. He is twelve.

    The girl in the hat is Lily. She is twelve, too. The other girl is Sue. She is twelve. The girls are twins. They are in Class 2, Grade 1. Their teacher is Mr. Green. He is not here.

    Tom and Fred are students.They are both twelve years old, and they are in the same class in their school.

    Last Friday afternoon they have a fight in class, and their teacher is very angry. He says to both of them, “Stay here after the lessons this afternoon, and write your names a hundred times.”

    After the last lesson, all the other boys go home, but Tom and Fred stay in the classroom with their teacher.

    They begin writing their names. The teacher looks at him and says, “Why are you crying, Fred?” 

  “Because his name is Tommy, and my name is very very long. My name is Frederick Hollingsworth.” Fred says.

    Some monkeys are playingin a tree near a lake. They are having a good time.

    Suddenly a little monkeys cry, “Look, the moon has dropped into the water!” “Get it out, hurry!” says the old monkey.

    The little monkey hangs from the tree by his tail. Then each monkey hangs from the other by his legs.

    At last they get to the water, but still they cannot scoop up the moon. Another little monkey finds half a gourd to scoop up the moon. Aha! He gets the moon in the gourd.

    At that time all the monkey come for the moon. But the gourd drops and the moon are broken. The monkeys are very sorry. But they look up, they find the moon is still high up in the sky, shining bright.

   Some cats are black. Some cats are white. Some cats are black and white. But no cats are green. I have a mother cat. She has three sons and two daughters. The mother cat loves her sons and daughters and they love their mother very much. And she looks after them.

   I have a good friend in my home. It's a cat. Its name is Mimi. It's white and yellow. And it's very beautiful. Iplay with it after school. It often plays with a ball or lines. My friends, Mary and Alice come to see it, but it is behind sofas or in a box. Our families sit in a sofa and it can go there with us. In the evening, I must study at my desk, but it is on the desk, too. At that time, I put it down. Is it my good friend? Guess, please.

Chen Fang: Hello! I'm Chen Fang. Nice to meet you.

Mary: Nice to meet you, too. My name's Mary Brown. I'm new. I want to make more friends here.

   This is the twin's bedroom. In the room we can see a map. It is a map of China. Books are on the desk. They have a clock on the desk, too.

   Their skirts are on the bed. Their shoes are under the chair. Everything is tidy. Their room is not big. It's very nice. The twins like it very much.
