He said excitedly, "It's my 10day driving alone. Dad, Mum, and Poo! Enjoy it!"
His 11 took the back seat, just behind him. Martin wanted to know 12 his father chose that seat, because his father always sat in the front seat. 13 he said, "I'm sure you sit there to have a 14 after all those weeks of sitting in the front seat teaching me how to drive."

Jogging is good for us and helps us live longer. It's easy to do. You do not have to spend much money jogging. You can do it in a park or even in your home. But many people find it boring after jogging for a while. Then how can we keep jogging fun? Here are some ideas to make your jogging more interesting.
* You should choose to wear your favourite sports clothes and shoes when you jog. They make you more comfortable and more likely to run.
* Always jog outdoors. By changing your route and choose another street, you will always have something interesting to enjoy on your way.
* Take along your MP3 player and listen to your favourite songs when you jog. The music can make you excited without feeling bored.
* It's also a good idea to jog with your friends. Join a running club, find a new running partner, or invite an old friend to go jogging. It's better to find a friend who runs a little faster than you. Then you can try to catch up him or her.

I live in a beautiful city of Yunnan province. Many visitors come to my city every year.
There are so many colorful peacocks(孔雀) here. Most peacocks live on the grass land of Spring Square. Some visitors give food to the birds freely. They usually throw food to them, and don't think about at all whether(是否) the food is right or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, some even died after eating the bad food from the visitors.
I'm sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds, but don't know that they may be doing something bad to them.
I think we should show a notice to tell the visitors that this kind of thing must be stopped. Also, we can build some small shops beside the square to sell peacock food. It's really important to give more love to these beautiful birds and to look after them carefully.
It was （母亲） Day last year and I was doing my (购物) at the supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were (离开), we saw an old woman fall down and hit her head.

Xia Ming was worried about his study, so he wrote a letter to a magazine.
Dear editors, I'm a slow student in my class. It's difficult to keep on working hard and it's really boring. I think I already spend much time studying every day. My father gives me some help sometimes. He tells me not to worry about it. But what do you think I should do? Xia Ming |
Dear Xia Ming, . You should believe tomorrow is another day. Mr. Unsmart |
Dear Xia Ming, Many famous people are not so good at the age like you. Edison, the famous scientist, had a bad headache for his studies when he was a 12-year-old boy. But everyone knows that he did a lot for the people in the world. And Newton had the same story like him. You should take it easy, then try your best. Thumbelina |
