It is a beautiful spring morning.There isn't a cloud,and the sun is warm but not too hot.So Mr.Green is surprised when he sees an old man at the bus stop with a big strong black umbrella in his hand.
Mr.Green says to him."Do you think we are going to have rain today?"
"No,"says the old man."I don't think so."
"Then are you carrying the umbrella to keep the sun off you?"
"No,the sun is not very hot in spring."
Mr.Green looks at the big umbrella again,then the man says,"I am an old man,and my legs are not very strong.So I really need a walking stick(拐杖).When I carry a walking stick,people will say, 'Look at that poor man.'And I don't like that.When I carry an umbrella in fine weather,people only say, 'Look at that foolish man.'"
Children are playing on the grass.Their mothers and fathers are eating food and watching them.Is this a family having a picnic(野餐) in the park?No,it's a group of Mountain Gorillas(大猩猩) in a forest in Africa.
Gorillas live in groups in the forest.Mountain Gorillas live in forests in the mountains.Mountain Gorillas are the biggest kind of gorilla.They have long hair that keeps them warm in the cold mountains.
Mountain Gorillas eat plants and they eat them most of the day.They get up early in the morning and start eating.When it is very hot,the gorillas sleep a little,and then they get up and eat till it gets dark.Some Mountain Gorillas eat 18 k g plants in one day!At the end of the day,the gorillas make a nest to sleep in.They sleep on the grass or in the trees.
The forests are the Mountain Gorillas' home and food,but people are cutting down the forests.Many Mountain Gorillas lose their homes and even lives when people cut down forests.
There are only about 500 Mountain Gorillas in the world today.Twenty years ago there were about 15,000 Mountain Gorillas.
We must do something to save the forests,so we can save the gorillas.

Jakarta﹣Bandung High﹣Speed Railway(雅万高速铁路) was finished in March,2023. For most Chinese,the opening(开辟) of a high﹣speed railway is usual,for people of Indonesia(印度尼西亚),this railway is a"dream road".When China started to help build(修建) it,they said,"We'll have high﹣speed trains,too.Thank you,China!"
Indonesia was the country in Asia to have a railway,but its old railways didn't help it much.Trains ran at 60 kilometers an hour.It was slow.From Jakarta to Bandung,it's about 160 kilometers.But it took over 3 hours train.And those old railways are not in the right places.Also Jakart a has quite a lot of.Many people use highways,so the highways are always.Indonesia really needs a high﹣speed railway.
When building this new railway,China many difficulties(困难).The 142.3﹣kilometer railway isn't long.But because of the terrible terrain(地形),it needs lots of bridges and tunnels(隧道).The weather in Indonesia is hot and .But China worked hard and it.
This railway opens in June,2023 and the speed(速度) of the trains is 5 times as fast as (快5倍) that of the old ones.It takes only 40 minutes to Bandung from Jakarta.How great!
My neighborhood is very beautiful and quiet.It is a new neighborhood,and there are a lot of big houses.The streets are very clean,and there aren't many cars.My school is near my house.I can walk there in 10 minutes.
There's also a park,which has a small playground for children and a large field(场地).I like to play baseball there with my friends after school.All of the houses have a small front yard(院子) but big back yards.Most of my neighbors have a swimming pool.Everyone has a flower garden,and in the spring,it is very beautiful.
I live on Maple Road.It is not in the city.It's in the country.There aren't any restaurants,bars or cinemas on my road.But,if you go to Main Street,you can find a lot of things to do.My favorite store is there.It's called Knick﹣Knack,and they sell everything you can think of.
I like my neighborhood because it is very safe.All of my neighbors take care of each other.The police station is next to the school,which is very nice.However,the hospital is quite far.It is in the city,and we have to drive 30 minutes to get there.
My friends live near me,and we often meet to play or just talk.I think I am lucky to live in my neighborhood.
