Dad will late to watch the soccer game tonight.

It was a Saturday in May. When Mrs. Black opened the door and looked out, she smiled and said, "It's going to be a beautiful day." She woke her little son up at eight thirty and said to him," Get up, Tod. We're going to the zoo today. Wash your hands and face, brush your teeth and have breakfast quickly. We are going to New York by train."

Tod was six years old. He was very happy now because he liked going to the zoo very much, and he also liked going by train. He said, "I dreamed(做梦) about the zoo last night, Mummy."

His mother was in a hurry, but she stopped and smiled at her little son," And what did you do in the zoo in your dream?" Tod laughed and answered, "" You know, Mummy! You are there in my dream, too."

Last Saturday, Linda finished her homework, and she wanted to do something for fun. She thought watching TV, reading books and playing computer games were boring. And she wanted to do something different. So when she saw the lawnmower(割草机), she decided to mow the lawn.

"Mom," she said, "I think I can mow the lawn."

Her mother said, ""Oh no, you can't. You're too young to mow the lawn."

"I'm fourteen years old and I know how to do it, "Linda said. "It can also help my dad a lot, and he doesn't have to worry about it over the weekend."

Her mother thought for a minute and then said OK. Linda wore gloves（手套) and made sure the lawnmower worked well. She started the lawnmower. She knew how to use the lawnmower by watching her dad. Her mother watched her through the kitchen window(窗户). Linda really knew how to mow the lawn. When she finished, she was quite happy. But she felt so hot. Her mother brought her some ice tea and said, "You did a great job. Your dad will be happy about it."

Her neighbors knew Linda could mow the lawn. So they asked Linda to help them on Sundays. And Linda got some money from them. She was really happy because she could do something to help others.

I love to the monkeys around.

They in the mountains last weekend.
