Let's come into the meeting room, ?
interesting TV programme it is!
Dear Jane,
My English name is Jack. I'm from China. Mr Wang, my English teacher, told me your name and e-mail address. I'm glad to write to you. Would you like to be my pen friend?
What do you usually do after school? When I am free, I always play sports. I also like watching TV. I'd like to tell you what I think of TV shows. I love English now. It helps me a lot! So I watch English programmes very often. I also like sports news. But I don't like soap operas (肥皂剧). I think they are boring (乏味的). I don't like Chinese Cooking, either. I think it's for Mums!
Jane, what do you think of TV shows? Can you write to me and tell me about your ideas?
Best wishes.
Yours,
Jack
Every morning a rich man found a poor man sitting on a bench (长凳) in a park. The poor man always sat there, looking at a big hotel. The rich man owned (拥有) the hotel. One day the rich man went out of his car and said to the poor man, "Excuse me, but I just want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning." "Sir," said the poor man, "I have no money, no family and no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I'll sleep in that hotel." The rich man said, "Tonight your dream will come true. You can live in the hotel for free."
A few days later, the rich man went to see the poor man. To his surprise, he found that the poor man had moved out of the hotel, back to his bench. The poor man said, "You see, when I was down here sleeping on my bench, I dreamt I was up there, in that big hotel. But when I was up there, I dreamt that I was back to this cold bench. It was a terrible (可怕的) dream, and I couldn't fall asleep at all."
Last summer I went to Taiwan with my parents. Taiwan is really beautiful! The weather there is always warm and wet because Taiwan is surrounded (包围) by the sea. In the north, there is the winter season, but in the south, there is no winter season and you can enjoy warm weather every day.
There are many mountains in Taiwan. A-li Mountain is one of the five biggest mountains there. We went to climb A-li Mountain one afternoon. There are many trees there.
Sun Moon Lake is the largest natural lake in Taiwan. In the lake there are many kinds of fishes. When we were watching the fish, an old man asked us, "Are you from Shanghai?" When we said "yes", he looked very happy and told us he was born in Shanghai and he missed the city very much. He asked us a lot of questions about Shanghai and gave us some fish when we left.
