一Yes,I'd love to. But there isn't       juice in the glass.

    Good morning, everyone. I want to 1 you about my neighbor(邻居)，Mr. White. There are 2 people in Mr. White's family. Mr. White is a manager of a big shop. Mrs. White teaches English in a university(大学).Her students like her very much 3 she is interesting. The Whites have two 4 . The son is Tim. He is thirteen. The daughter is Nell. She is twelve. There is also a brown 5 in their family. 6 name is Stella.

    Mr. White loves sports and he is good at playing tennis. Mrs. White likes 7 . She draws many beautiful pictures. Tim 8 listening to music. He has many CDs. Justin Bieber is his favorite singer. 9 is Nell's hobby? She likes doing some 10 . She has a lot of books in her room now. On Sunday, then take their cat to the nark and they often have a .good time there.

    In a chatting room on the Internet, some children are talking about what they like to do at school.

    Flying Fish: I think music is my favourite. I like listening to many beautiful English songs. I need to feel relaxed after a day's work. So I often listen to my favourite music after supper.

    Singing Bird: I like music, too. But I only listen to Chinese songs. I also like drawing. Maybe I can be a great painter(画家)when I grow up. I also like reading. Reading makes me clever.

    Jumping Tiger: I don't like music or drawing. They are a waste(浪费)of time, I think.I am a good basketball player. I can help our school team win. Don't you think it's cool?

    Running Football: I am not a good basketball player. But I play football well. Playing football makes me strong. I feel great when I am on the football field. I spend half an hour a day playing football.

    Swimming Cat: I am not like many other boys. I don' t like sports very much. I just think reading is my favourite. I can learn a lot from books. I spend an hour reading books every day.

    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.

    This is an old English saying. Do you know it before? It says that we must go to bed early and get up early in the morning. Then we should be healthy. We should also be rich (wealthy) and clever (wise).

    This is true. The body must have enough sleep to be healthy. Children of a young age should have ten hours' sleep every night. Children who don't have enough sleep can't do their work very well.They will not be wise and they may not become wealthy!

    The body also needs exercise. Walking, running, jumping, swimming and playing games are all exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong.

    Exercise also keeps the blood(血液)moving around inside the body. This is very important. Our blood takes food to all parts of our body. The head also needs blood. Exercise helps us to think better!

    John is five years old now. He is a good boy. He is very clever and can read very well. But he can't tell the right time by clock. He doesn't say eight o'clock in the morning, twelve o'clock or four o'clock in the afternoon. He always says "breakfast time" for eight o'clock, "lunch time" for twelve o'clock and "tea-time" for four o'clock in the afternoon. His mother wants to teach him to know the time by clock.

    "Can you count, John?" his mother asks him. "Yes. Let me count for you. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, and twelve..." "That's good, John. Now let me tell you to say the time. Now, look! I put the long hand on twelve and the short hand on one. That is one o'clock. If I put the short on two, that's two o'clock. Do you know?"

    "Yes, I do." John tells his mother. "Good. If I put the short hand on four, what's that?" his mother asks and really puts the short one on four. "Tea-time, Mum. And I am hungry."

    Food is important. Everyone needs to e       well if he or she wants to have a strong body. Our minds(心灵)also need a kind of food. This kind of food is knowledge(知识).We begin to get knowledge even when we are y       . Small children are interested i       everything around them. They learn e       while they are watching and listening. When they are getting older they begin to r       story books, science books and anything else they like. When they find something

    n       ，they have to ask questions and t       to find out the answers.

    What is the best w       to get knowledge? If we learn b       ourselves, we will get the most knowledge. If we are always getting answers f       others and don't ask why, we will never learn more and understand well.

    Mr Hu is an English teacher in China. He loves teaching very much. One day when he is giving an English lesson, he finds the headmaster(校长)sitting at the back of the classroom. After class, the headmaster tells him that he comes to his class to find out how much English and how much Chinese he is using. The result is about half English and half Chinese. The headmaster tells him that he should use more English in his class. Mr Hu makes a plan like this: Talk with an Englishman every Sunday for two hours to learn more English expressions(习语);Write some English expressions on cards; Have a five-minute talk in English with students before class; Speak more English in English classes.

    One year later, he finds he can use English freely.
