When my sister Gina was born, she had a problem with her heart. She was weak after a long 1 and had to go to the hospital very often. She had 2 walking, playing with other children, and going to school.
Our parents wanted to take Gina to a special place in Florida and hoped Gina could 3 with dolphins(海豚). When Gina knew it, she was 4 because she didn't know whether it was easy to be around dolphins.
When we got to Florida, we couldn't wait to 5 the place. Kids who had 6 needs like Gina could come and spend time with dolphins. I thought it was going to be a vacation, 7 it wasn't. Gina had to work hard every day for a week.
However, the trip was amazing. Gina 8 and clapped(鼓掌) when she saw the dolphins. One of the dolphins squeaked(尖叫) happily to 9 her. They swam together all day. Gina was able to move her body more than she 10 did at home. Mum and Dad were proud of Gina. I was, too.
Steve is James and John's big brother. One day, when their mum left for work, James and John started crying. They didn't want her to leave. Steve tried to stop them crying and said, "Let's play hide-and-seek(捉迷藏). You hide and I'll count to ten. Then I'll try to find you." Steve found James under a chair and John behind a door. They played over and over again. Each time, the two boys hid in the same places. Finally, Steve felt too bored with the game. "Let's take the dog for a walk," he said.
When Steve walked the dog, he found James and John were running in the street. He thought it was so dangerous. Then he had an idea. "Anyone who walks back to the house with me can have some snacks!" Steve shouted.
At home, the boys ate some cookies and got ready for a sleep. James and John wanted a story. Steve told them the story about the little red hen. When their mum returned home, she was pleased to find the three sleeping boys.
People in the office usually sit for most of the day when they work. But this is bad for a person's health. When people sit for too long every day, they don't move very much. So it is easy to start getting fat. Sitting too long is also bad for their work because it makes them want to sleep. When this happens, people may make more mistakes in their work or spend more time finishing their work. Companies need workers to be healthy, so how do they fix the problem?
Some companies have different types of desks to help their workers. The first type of desk is the standing desk. The desk can be taller when a person wants to stand. It can also be shorter when the person wants to sit. Another type of desk is the walking desk. This desk is made so that a person can work while walking at the same time.
Workers in the companies like the different types of desks very much. They think these desks are quite useful.
Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses.
Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture. In Turkey(土耳其), tea is always there when people meet. Whether in someone's home or a company, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers(同事).
Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.
Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more?

Dogs are the best pets of humans. They come in all sizes. Some dogs are as small as a football, and others are as tall as a desk. Dogs' fur(毛) is different, too. It can be long and soft, or smooth and hard. People don't mind the kind of fur, because all dogs are good to hug.
Dogs need to be taken care of. Short-haired dogs are the easiest to look after. But all dogs need a bath once in a while. Giving a dog a bath is a lot of fun. After you give a bath to your dog, it shakes the water off its body. Be careful, or you will get wet!
Dogs like to make their owners(主人) happy, so dogs are easy to train. They can follow simple orders.
Dogs are really amazing animals. Some dogs pull sleds(雪橇) across icy places. Some save people who fall into the river. Other dogs do tricks(表演绝技) in movies. A dog has even flown in a rocket(火箭) to space.
Why not keep a dog as a pet?
In the small villages of Kenya(肯尼亚), Africa, most kids want to read books. But no roads go to their homes, only miles and miles of sand. Cars and trucks are not useful, s library books arrive on the backs of camels. Camels can handle(应付) the sand and the books. Two camels, a camel driver, and a librarian (图书管理员) w to the villages together. One camel carries about 180 kilos of books, and the other carries a tent. At each village, the librarian sets up the tent and shows the b to the kids inside. Two weeks later, the camels c back with new books.
Some people in the mountains of northern Thailand(泰国) get books in a d way. Their "l" are carried by elephants. These animals can handle the difficult journey. Because they are large, they can carry many books in metal cases(金属箱). The metal protects the books from the heavy rains that f in the area.
Indonesia(印度尼西亚) has its own difficulties. The country has over 17,000 islands. Most people t by boat and they also carry their books by boat. A library boat holds(容纳) about 500 books in boxes. Boxes of books are left in villages and are traded(交换) for new books a few weeks l.
For people who live far and can't get to a library, a library that comes to them brings more than books. It brings a whole w of information.
