It was Saturday yesterday. It was sunny. I got up at 7:30. After breakfast, I went to the beach with Ann. There were many people on the beach. We ran, jumped and played volleyball on the sands. We swam in the sea. Some men fished on a boat. We had a good time. We were tired, but happy.

The e-schoolbag
Heavy schoolbags are bad for students’ health. Now the e-schoolbag will help students.
In fact, the e-schoolbag is a computer for students. It is small and light, but it can store (存储) many things for students, such as textbooks and exercises. Students can also use chips. They can put the right chip into the e-schoolbag and read the textbooks page by page on the screen. Students can also use the e-schoolbag to take notes or send emails to their teachers.
Some people say the e-schoolbag is good for students’ study, but some people say it’s not good for students’ eyes. I think time will tell us the result.

One morning, Mrs Black was going to do some shopping with her daughter, Mary. When they were walking in the street, Mrs Black was knocked down(撞倒) by a fast car and was quickly taken to a hospital.
The next day the driver came to the hospital to see her with a bunch of flowers. But Mrs Black was weak and could hardly(几乎不) speak, so her daughter went in and spoke quietly to her mother, "Mother, the young man who knocked you down is waiting outside. May he come in?"
"Yes, "Mrs Black also spoke quietly," If he is on foot."
