Learning foreign languages is fun.Our school has a Reading Week every year. During the week, we can borrow more books from the school library. We can also bring in books and magazines from home. I often read more books than my classmates. Near the end of the week, we discuss the books with our classmates in class. Time seems to go faster when we are reading interesting books.3Winter is my favourite season. It is very cold and everyone has to wear thick warm clothes, but I always enjoy the winter here in Harbin.The temperature is usually below zero and it is often snowy. Everything is covered in deep white snow, and the lakes and rivers are frozen.During this season, you cannot see beautiful flowers or green trees, but the land is quiet and beautiful.My friends and I love playing outside in winter. It is exciting to have big snowball fights. We also make snowmen and use carrots for their noses. They look funny.Winter is great!4DIY stands for “do-it-yourself”. When you do DIY, you make, repair or decorate things yourself instead of paying someone to do it.Today, we are going to make some sandwiches. Sandwiches are quick and easy to make. First, you should pick a piece of bread. Then put some tomato sauce on it. Next, you can put some ham and vegetables on it. They are good for our health. Finally, you just need to put another piece of bread on top of it. If you like, you can cut it in half with a knife. Be careful! I dont want anyone to get hurt. Why not have a try now?5Halloween is on October 31. People celebrate it in many ways. Children wear special costumes and masks at Halloween. Many children play a game called trick or treat. They knock on their neighbours doors and shout trick or treat. Their neighbours usually give them some candy as a treat. If the children do not get any candy, they can play a trick on their neighbours. Some people also make lanterns out of big orange pumpkins. They cut out the eyes, the nose and the sharp teeth. They put candles in them so the light shines through the eyes, the nose and the teeth.6Tan Dun is one of the greatest artists in the world today. When he was very young, Tan showed an interest in music. To him, the best music comes from nature. As he likes the sounds of nature, Tan uses them a lot in his music. For example, in one of his works, Water, he doesnt use any musical instruments. He makes over 50 sounds from water by controlling the speed of water flow. Thats really amazing.Tan has successfully brought Chinese and Western music together. He has helped build a bridge between the East and the West. In his words, “My music is to dream without boundaries.”7Dinosaurs lived on the Earth a long time ago. We now know that the first dinosaurs appeared about 230 million years ago.There were hundreds of different kinds of dinosaurs, but they didnt live at the same time. Some dinosaurs were really small. One of the smallest dinosaurs was about one metre long and weighed about three kilograms. Others were really big. Some very large ones weighed over 100,000 kilograms and some were about 40 metres long.Some dinosaurs ate plants and others ate meat, but they didnt eat grass. All dinosaurs had four legs and lived on land.8We are going to hold a talk on good table manners this afternoon. The purpose is to teach students rules for eating.There will be a lot of advice on table manners. Above all, when you are sitting at the table, you should not start eating until everyone is ready, and it is impolite to make too much noise while you are eating or drinking. You should not eat with your mouth open or talk with food in your mouth. Before you leave the table, wait for everyone to finish.These rules are important because we should make sure that both guests and hosts are comfortable at the table.9We need to do something for giant pandas. They are now in danger. For example, giant pandas do not have many babies during their lives, and its easy for baby pandas to get sick and die when they are very young. Also, giant pandas mainly live on a special kind of bamboo, so the bamboo forests are very important to them. However, the bamboo forests are becoming smaller and smaller. As a result, giant pandas may not have a place to live or food to eat. There are now only about 1,600 pandas in the wild. We should take action to protect them right away.10 New York, London, Paris and many other cities are exciting places to live. There are lots of interesting things to see and do.But there are serious problems in big cities too. It is expensive to live there, and there are too many people. Every year many people move to the cities to find work, study at good schools and receive high-quality medical care, but sometimes these people cant find work or good places to live. Also it is hard to keep big cities safe and clean.So, before people move to a big city, they should think about these problems they might have to deal with there.11 Yao Ming was born in Shanghai in 1980. He got his first basketball when he was only four years old, but he did not become serious about basketball until he was 12. Yao joined the Houston Rockets in 2002 and became the best Chinese player to ever play in the NBA.When Yao Ming lived in the USA, he returned to China whenever he was needed. He took part in the Olympics in 2004 and in 2008 as one of the Chinese athletes. Since he ended his basketball career, Yao has done a lot of charity work, especially for poor Chinese teenagers.12 Hi, everyone. Here were in front of the South Gate.

It is the largest city in Australia.On the website, we saw lots of pictures of Sydney. Sydney is near the sea. There are many beautiful beaches there. We also saw a wonderful building called the Sydney Opera House. It is a theatre and looks like a ship with many sails. Near the Sydney Opera House is the famous Harbour Bridge. People can climb it. It takes about three hours. It is really cool!Australian seasons are the opposite of ours. For example, in April, it is autumn in Australia!17Dear Mum,I am going on a business trip to Shenzhen tomorrow. I have asked my robot to look after you while I am away.You have a serious heart problem and have to take medicine every day. However, you have a poor memory and often forget when you should take your pills. My robot will remind you to take them at the right time. If you want to go out, my robot will help you find your coat. You often feel lonely because you do not know who you can talk to, and my robot will try to do something to make you happy.Take care and I will see you soon!Yours,John18 Dear Sir,I would like to recommend Daniel for this years Youth Star Award.Daniel is a clever boy. He learns things quickly. He always thinks carefully when he works. He plans everything well.Daniel is really kind. Last week, a five-year-old boy lost his way and was crying in the street. Daniel saw him and took him to the police station. He stayed with the boy and played with him for two hours before the boys parents came.All the members at the Helping Hands Club think that Daniel should get the award. We look forward to hearing from you soon.Yours,Sandy19 My father has worked in a local factory for years. You will not find anything unusual about him until you learn more.My father has always been kind and helpful. He has donated blood many times since 1990. The blood he has donated is enough to save over 70 lives. He has also donated blood cells to people with blood cancer. To my surprise, he has decided to donate his body for medical research after his death.When I was a little girl, I could not understand why my father always seemed to be kinder to others than to his own family. Now I realize that he has a heart full of love.20 My ideal school starts at 8 a.m. and finishes at 3 p.m. I love sports and computers, so we have PE and computer lessons every day. The classes are quite small. There are about 20 students in each class.There is a big dining hall. There we can eat and chat with our friends. There is a park on one side of our school and a shopping mall on the other. We have a big library. We also have a tennis court and a swimming pool.There are lots of clubs and after-school activities. Every month, we go on a school trip to a museum or a theatre.21Recently we did a survey in our class in order to learn about students ideal jobs. Heres a report about my group members ideas.Mary wants to be a teacher when she grows up. She is very patient and enjoys working with children. Now, she is interested in all the subjects and works very hard. Mike would like to be a writer. He is willing to share his wonderful stories with others. Now he keeps reading and writing every day. I want to be a dancer because I like dancing very much. I practise dancing every day.Hopefully, everyone can realize their dreams in the future.22 Zhalong Nature Reserve is in North-east China. It is one of the worlds most important wetlands. The area provides food and cover for a lot of wildlife. It is a perfect place for some rare birds.Some people want to make the wetlands smaller in order to have more space for farms and buildings. This will lead to less and less space for wildlife. Now the Chinese government has made laws to protect Zhalong.Wetlands are important because they provide food and shelter for wildlife including some endangered birds, and they also help prevent floods. We must protect the home of plants, fish and birds in Zhalong.23Pollution is one of the biggest problems in the world today. In many places, rubbish is thrown into lakes and rivers, so many of them are polluted. In some cities, the air is filled with pollution.Switzerland is still beautiful with high mountains and clean blue lakes. In Switzerland, things like glass, plastic and paper are separated into different groups and then recycled. Even old clothes and shoes can be recycled. The government has many laws to protect the environment. For example, people are not allowed to cut down trees. Otherwise, they will be punished. Remember that everyone can do something to make a difference.24 Dear Millie,Thank you very much for your letter. I hope I can offer you some useful advice.You said you often stay up late to finish all your homework. Plan your day carefully. Make a list of all the homework you have. Then work out how much time you need to finish it all. This will give you an idea of how much spare time you have.You also said that you do not have enough time for your hobbies. What about choosing your hobby according to the time you have?I hope you think my advice is worth taking.Best wishes,Helen25 All around the world, people drink tea, but tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea.In China people like to have tea together with their friends. They drink tea at any time of the day. They put only tea leaves in their cups. They prefer tea with nothing in it. Tea is also popular in Japan. People have tea every day, but the way they drink it is different from that in China.In the USA people drink tea at breakfast or after meals. They usually use tea bags to make their tea.26 Many young people are now giving up their spare time to become volunteers. It is a very meaningful activity because volunteering helps and gives support to different groups in society.Young people can choose to volunteer in many different charities and projects. For example, I do voluntary work for two charities: the first one gives help and support to homeless people, and the second one takes care of the disabled people.Another choice is to take part in special projects or events to raise money for charity. Some people take part in charity walks, or they donate money to charities. You can even organize one of these events yourself.27 I have to choose a new colour for my bedroom. Its a very important decision, because colour can change a persons mood. I like orange, because its a happy, warm colour. It can make people feel comfortable. My best friend Jack doesnt agree though. He thinks green is better. Jack says that green represents nature and that it can make you feel energetic. I remind Jack that green is also the colour of envy. My mother recommends blue. She thinks blue is a calm and peaceful colour, so it will make me less stressed and help me relax after school. Perhaps she is right.28Our environment is changing for the worse, so it is time for us to go green. Here are some simple steps to take at home.We can save water by taking shorter showers and turning off the tap when we brush our teeth. In order to save power, we should turn off the lights when we leave a room.Some other good habits can help reduce pollution too. We should not use plastic bags when shopping. Recycling is also a good way to help reduce pollution. We should separate waste into different groups so that it can be recycled.Follow these small steps, and you can make a big difference to the Earth!29 I went to Hainan with my parents in February. Hainan lies in the south of China.Haikou is the capital city of Hainan Province. There are many famous attractions in it. We went to the Holiday Beach, a fantastic place. It was a sunny day, so we took a walk along the beach. We also went to Peoples Park. We hired a bicycle and rode around the park. It was much fun! Then we went to Sanya. We went to see some underground caves. I took many photos of them.There is so much to see in Hainan. I want to visit it again in the future.30 My dream home is at the foot of a hill. It has three floors. There is a football field behind my house and a swimming pool beside it.There is a kitchen and a home cinema on the ground floor. The kitchen is very clean. There is always more than enough food there. The cinema has a large TV. I would like to invite my friends to watch films with me at the weekend.On the first floor, there are six bedrooms. Each room has a new computer and all the beds are comfortable.There are two large rooms on the second floor. My friends and I have parties there. It is great fun!10
