In England，traffic keeps on the left.Cars，buses and bikes all move on the left side of the road.But the
traffic keeps on the right in China.So when you are in England，you must be very careful in the street.Before you cross a street you must stop and look both ways.Look right and look left and look right again.If the traffic lights are red，the traffic must stop.Then the people on foot can cross the road.If the traffic lights are green，the traffic can go.People on foot mustn’t cross.
In the morning and in the evening，when people go to or come back from work，the streets are very busy.Traffic is very dangerous（ 危险的）.
When you go by bus in England，you have to be careful，too.Always remember the traffic moves on the
left.If you don’t have a look first，you will go the wrong way.

you can see the city very well.It’s very interesting.

Summer holiday is coming.I decide to go to Hong Kong.There are a lot of beaches（海滩） in Hong Kong.And about forty beaches are open to people from the world.Some of them are the best in the world.
People can swim there.People can go to most of the beaches by bus.But if you want to go to some other
beaches you must take a boat.On most of the beaches，there are toilets and shops.You can change your
clothes and you can buy food and drinks.
Also，you must know the rules there.If you remember these rules，you can swim there and you will not
be in danger.
First，never swim alone.
Next，never swim after a meal or when you aren’t well.
Then，don’t stay in the water for too long.
Last，never go out from a boat if you can’t swim.
Remember：A red flag（ 旗帜） means all the people mustn’t swim in the water.Here people are in
danger.A blue flag means it is dangerous for kids here.
I believe we can have a safe and happy summer holiday.

My mother only had one eye．I never wanted her to show up at my school．
One day during primary school，I was terribly ill．My mother came．
"Your mom only has one eye!"yelled some of my classmates．I wished my mother would have just disappeared （消失）．
"If you embarrass （使…尴尬） me，why don’t you just die？"I shouted at her，taking no notice of the sad look on her face．My mother just handed me some medicine and left without saying anything．
At that time，I didn’t think I had hurt her feelings very much．That night I saw my mom crying in her room．Even so，I hated her tears from one eye．I made a decision：I must study hard and leave my mother．
Years later my dream came true．I was quite successful．I never thought of going back to see my"ugly"mother until one day I got a letter．
"My son I’m sorry I only have one eye．When you were little，you got into an accident and lost your eye．As a mom，I couldn’t stand watching you live with only one eye．So I gave you mine．
I was never angry with you and I never regretted it because I love you．"I cried out aloud．Only then did I realise how beautiful my mother was!
