The human mind is like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we 8 , but of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do 9 ready to show to our friends. In the same way, there is much work to do before we can make a picture remain the photo is taken and forever in the 10 .

What do you think is the best place to relax in your city on weekends? Here are three students' ideas.
Frank: I think Blue Moon Theater is the best place to relax in my city, although it's a little noisy there. Blue Moon Theater is not far from my home. It has the most comfortable seats and plays the best music. I go there to watch movies with my friends two or three times a month.
Zhao Min: I think the best place to relax in my city is Haiqu Park. I go for a walk there three to five times a month. Sometimes I go there to play badminton. It is my favorite sport. And sometimes I go there to skate with my brother.
Alan: I think the Red Star Library is the best place to relax in my city on weekends. People can read all kinds of books there. There is also a computer room in the library. People can watch videos or play computer games on it. Every Saturday after I finish my piano lessons in Green Piano Club, I go to the library to read books with my sister.

My best friend Jack looks similar to me. I'm quiet and I like reading books. He likes reading, too. Amy works hard and always gets good grades. She is good at math. She often helps me with it. I do better in history than her, so I can help her with history. I don't think it's easy for me to make friends because I'm quieter than most of other boys. So I don't have many friends. My close friends are John and Tony, I like talking to them. And we are all interested in playing chess. We often play chess at home. We always have fun. My best friend Lily can play the piano well. She can also sing and dance very well. After class she always sings pop songs for me, and that makes me feel relaxed. | A. Ann: I think a good friend should have cool clothes. B.

I have a good friend. His name is Nick. Both of us like watching movies and all of talent shows. Last Sunday afternoon, we went to the cinema together. The cinema is the closest to our homes. So we walked there. It has the biggest screens and the most comfortable seats in town. You can sit there , watch great movies and enjoy your time with your friends. We saw a funny movie called Mr. Bean. I think it's the movie.
After we got out of the cinema, we went to a restaurant near the movie theater to have a . There are lots of dishes on the menu. The food in the restaurant is really delicious. What's more, it's the cheapest in town and it has the friendliest .
Then we watched a talent show on TV. It's very interesting to watch other people show their talents. Every performer is good at something, but some of them are truly talented.
My name is Jack. I am fourteen years old. I have many friends. Most of them are as old as me. Some are older than me and some are younger.
My best friend is David. He is also fourteen and he comes from the countryside. We live in the same neighborhood now. We are in the same class. He sits behind me. David is good at math and he often helps me with my math homework. I often help him with his English homework. He is poor in English, because he never studied English before.
David is 1. 7 meters tall. He is taller than me. I am only 1. 6 meters tall. We both have brown hair, but David's hair is longer than mine.
David is a little thin, but I am heavy. I don't like sports, so I don't get much exercise. But David likes sports very much. He often asks me to play sports with him.
After school, David and I play soccer for half an hour in our neighborhood. Thanks to(多亏) David, I am healthier than before.
We help and learn from each other. We are good friends!
