It's May 10th today. It's my birthday. At twenty to seven, my mother wakes me up. I get up and my parents say to me, "Happy birthday to you! Rose." I say, "Thank you, Mum and Dad. I get a lot of presents from my friends and my family. They are all in the nice boxes."
My father gives me a yellow box and there is a book in it. My mother is saying, "It's our present for you. There are a lot of stories in it. You can read them and it's good for you." Jack, one of my friends, gives me a long box. What's in it? It's an umbrella. My sister gives me a round box. I think it is a big cake in it, but it is a basketball. I like playing basketball very much, so I'm happy to have the box? It's green. I open the small box and see another box. This one is blue. In this box I find a little white envelope(信封) here is a piece of paper in it. It is saying, "Go to your bedroom. You can see three boxes there's a black one, a grey one and a white one. Your birthday present is in one of them. "I go to my bedroom and find the boxes on the table in my room. Then I open the black one .I'm really happy to see a radio in it.

If the children do not get any candy, they can play a trick on the eighbor. Some people also make special pumpkin(南瓜) lanterns. They make the eyes, the nose and the sharp teeth. They put candles in them so the light shines(闪耀) through the eyes, the nose and the teeth.

Mr. White lives in a tall building. He lives on the sixteenth floor. Every day, he takes a lift(电梯)up and down.
One Saturday afternoon, he went shopping with his little son and bought many things. They drove back and carried all the things up to the lift. Suddenly they saw a piece of paper on the wall. It said, "Dear sirs, there's something wrong with the lift. Please use the stairs now. "The son took a bag and ran upstairs quickly. But Mr. White walked and walked.
At last they stood in front of their door feeling very tired. Mr. White began to look for the keys, but he could not find them. Suddenly he shouted in a loud voice," Oh, no! my keys are in the car."
Do you know there are two kinds of football games? One is American football, and the other is soccer. In China many young men like playing soccer. It is very popular. But the Chinese don't call it soccer. We call it football. There are eleven players on a team(队).And the ball is round. Only the goalkeeper can touch the ball with his hands. The other players can't touch the ball with their hands.
In America, soccer is not very popular. They like playing American football. It is very different. The ball is not round. It likes a big egg. There are also eleven players on a team. All the players can touch the ball with feet and hands.
