On Saturday morning, John got up early to go to a sports club. On his way, he saw three of his schoolmates at the mall, Rie, Asuka and Yuki. They were always together because they were very good friends.
“I'm shopping for new shoes,” Rie told John. “But I have big feet so nothing fits! We have been shopping everywhere but I can't find any big shoes!”
“And we walk very slowly,” Yuki said, “because of Asuka ...”
“I know,” John said, looking at Asuka. “I heard you hurt your knee in P.E. class yesterday. Does it hurt?”
“It's OK if I move very slowly,” Asuka told him. “We are going to eat ice-cream at Dairy Queen. Do you want to come?”
“Sorry, I can't. I am going to meet Edward at the sports club. See you later!” said John.
John was walking past a coffee shop when he saw Ms. Kanda. She was looking at a new sidewalk (人行道). As John came closer he could see that Ms. Kanda was angry. “Somebody jumped in the middle of the sidewalk when the cement (水泥) was still wet!” she said, pointing to two small footprints (脚印) in the new cement. “Now I can't go home because I have to fix the sidewalk!”

Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves to read during all of his free time. His friends always tease him because he likes to read more than to play video games, but his parents and his teachers are proud of him. They say reading is important and it will help him learn about the world around him. They also tell him reading is a good habit.
One day Max read a magazine article about volcanoes (火山). He told his friends all about volcanoes and what causes them to erupt (爆发). The very next week, his class were asked to do a science project about volcanoes. Guess who everyone wanted in their project group? Max's friends weren't teasing him anymore. Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh.
Max brought that magazine he read before to school, so his project partners could read about volcanoes too. They also went to the library to look for more information about volcanoes. The group met at Anna's house that night to organize the information and decide what they wanted to put in the project. They all asked Max what he thought was most important. The next night they met at Josh's house to build their model volcano.

Australia, also known as “the Land Down Under”, is a country, an island and a continent (大陆). It's the world's smallest continent and the sixth largest country. But only about 24 million people live there. The first people there were the Aborigines (澳大利亚土著居民). In the late 18th century the British arrived. Today the British influence on Australia is still very strong. For example, the national language is English and drivers drive on the left side of the road.
Australia was cut off from the other continents a long time ago, so a lot of Australia's animals, like the koala and the kangaroo aren't found anywhere else in the world. Australia also has some of the most dangerous animals in the world. There are poisonous (有毒的) snakes and spiders. In the north there are huge saltwater crocodiles, and in the sea, around the coast, there are sharks and poisonous jellyfish.
The largest city in Australia is Sydney with its famous Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The 2000 Summer Olympics were held in Sydney. But Sydney isn't the capital (首都) of Australia. The capital is Canberra.
Australia is a huge country, but most Australians live in the south-east corner between Sydney and Melbourne. This is because most of the land is very dry. Australians call this dry area the outback. There are some huge farms there with millions of sheep. The children who live on these farms can't go to school, because the nearest town is too far away. They study at home with the School of the Air. They used to talk to their teachers by the radio and, nowadays, on the Internet. There is also a “flying doctor” service. The doctor comes to the outback by plane.
