When I was a little girl, my mum and dadtold me that if I planted something in spring, I could get1inautumn.
At the age of six, when I was eating a bigapple, something hard (硬) pressedagainst (挤压) my tongue (舌头).What was it? It was a tooth!
I was afraid. I2andran to my grandma's room. She picked up the tooth and said, "Don't worry,dear. It's a baby tooth. You will have a new tooth in a few3."
"A new tooth?" I felt very4.
"Yes. But when you get old, your teethwill5out again, but at that time, they won'tgrow again. So it's not6for old people to eat something hard,"my grandma said.
I went out of my grandma's room andthought, "Where can I7the dropped tooth?" Suddenly, agood idea8into my mind, "Why not plant it inthe ground? If I look after it well, maybe it would become a big tree. When9comes,there will be many white and strong teeth10the tree. I can give themto the old people then."
Of course my tooth didn't grow into a bigtree, but I won't forget the beautiful dream in my childhood.
I love to go biking! Two years ago I bought an exercise bike (健身脚踏车). But soon I got bored with being at home, so I bought a used bike and started going for short rides. Now I plan day trips in my neighborhood (街区). When you drive a car, you miss many things. It's surprising how much more you can see when you're biking.

My favourite thing to do at weekends is to go to the beach. The beach is beautiful all through the year. I usually drive there. If the weather is cold, I wear some warm clothes and go for long walks on the beach. When the weather is hot, I enjoy swimming or lying in the sun.

At weekends I like to read books. If the weather is nice, I'll take a good book to the park and stay there reading for hours. I think there's nothing asdelightful as reading a good book.

Weekends are for going hiking (徒步旅行) with my parents. We live near some beautiful mountains. Sometimes we camp out at night. We really enjoy cooking dinner over a campfire and spending a night under the stars!

Parents are very important to us and they love us all the time. As kids, how to show love to our parents? Here are some tips.
Whether with pencils or paints, it will be a great treasure (财富)to them forever When we are older and leave home, our parents can see the picture when they miss us.
Though it's a kind of housework, it shows Mom and Dad that we care about them and we can help them around our house. And clean rooms make the family happier.
It can be some rice, some meat and vegetables,and even some soup. It can give them a break after they come back from work. And it's better to wash the dishes after dinner.
The best way to show them our love is, never to lie (说谎).This shows that you not only love them, but also believe in and respect(尊敬)them.
Watch a film with Mom sometimes, or go to a sports game with Dad once in a while. It is also a way to show them how much we care and want to be closer with them.
A. Spend time with them. B. Keep our room clean. C. Make a picture for them. D. Say sorry to them. E. Never tell lies to them. F. Cook dinner for them. |
