Bob and Milly are chatting online. What are they talking about?
"Hi, Nice to meet you!"
"Hello. Nice to meet you too! "
"I'm a girl. My name is Milly Green."
"I'm a boy. My name's Bob Brown. Would you please tell me something about yourself?"
"Yes. I'm thirteen years old. I like art. My favourite colour is red. I love volleyball. I often play it with my friends after school. It's easy and interesting. By the way, I'm tidy. What about you?"
"Well, I'm not tidy. My things are everywhere, ha ha. My favourite colour is blue. I like volleyball too. But I don't play it often. Volleyball is difficult for me. I love ping-pong. It's fun. Oh, and I am two years older than you."
"We can play volleyball together some day. I can teach you"
"Good idea. Thank you."
What are your hobbies? Many children like stamp collecting in their spare time. Do you know? Stamp collecting didn't start until 1854. As time passes, there are more and more stamp-collectors. Not only children but also men and women are collectors. In some countries, there are even lessons on stamp collecting in school. People are becoming more and more interested in stamps. Every picture on a stamp has its meaning in it. It may be the head of a famous person, an important place or a special moment. Each stamp tells us a story. We can learn a lot from stamps. Now stamp collecting is my favourite hobby.

A long time ago, people thought that the Sun went round the Earth. In some countries people even said that the Sun was a god (神). They thought the god drove across the sky each day on a golden horse. Now we know the Earth goes round the Sun. It takes the Earth a year to go all way round the Sun. Today men even know how far it is for the Earth to go round the Sun. They tell us that the Earth travels over a thousand miles a minute on its journey round the Sun.
The Sun is really a star. It is much bigger than the Earth and it is very hot. Some people have been to the Moon but we know that no one can ever go to the Sun. It is far too hot for people to live anywhere near it. The Sun is about three hundred thousand times heavier than the Earth and more than a million times larger.
There are many (interest) clubs in our school. They (be) the Music Club, the Movie Club, the Basketball Club, the Chess Club, the Art Club and so on.

We all like (watch) movies very much. Here you can see many (kind) of movies. This month we have two (act) movies, two thrillers and three comedies. Boys like action movies thrillers. But girls don't like them. They like comedies. They think comedies are very (fun). Do you like seeing the movies? Please join our Movie Club.
