Bill | Hey, guys. I'm not happy today. I like sports and I play basketball every Sunday. But my parents want me to do homework on weekends, so I can't play basketball. I also like playing computer games, but my parents think it's bad. |
Kate | Sorry to hear that, Bill. But computer games are not good for you. I don't like my weekends. My father is a doctor and my mother is a pharmacist. They are both very busy. So I usually do housework on weekends and I never have time to play. |
Tony | Poor Kate! I enjoy watching TV and I want to do it every day. But my parents are not happy about that. So I can only watch for 30 minutes on Sunday. |
Lisa | Parents seem like that. My parents never let me watch TV or play computer games! On weekdays, they always want me to study almost every minute. But they let me have a break on Saturday. They take me to watch movies, swim or go shopping. And on Sunday I can play with my friends after I finish my homework. Sometimes they are really good! |

His friend Ben is walking down the street and he is eating a big red apple. He sees Tom and says, "Tom, I'm going swimming, but you can't come with me. You're working. "
Tom says, "I like it! I can go swimming every day, but I can't paint a fence every day. "
Ben is surprised(惊讶的) and he watches Tom. He paints slowly and carefully, and he often smiles. He looks happy. At this time, Ben wants to paint too.
"Listen Tom, let me paint a little, " says Ben. "I want to try. "
Tom looks at Ben and says, "I'm really sorry, Ben, but Aunt Polly wants me to do it. You know, I'm very good at painting. My brother Sid wants to do it, but he's not good at painting. "
"Oh, Tom, let me try, please!" says Ben. "Here, you can have my apple. "
Tom is happy but he doesn't smile. "OK, Ben, you can paint for a short time. "
Then Tom's other friends come by. They watch Tom paint and they all want to try too. They give Tom their new kite, a cat, an old knife, a key and some other things.
