Mr. King lived in a small town, but he has a job in a big city, so he moved there with his wife and his children last Tuesday.
On that day Mr. King took his new car out of the garage(车床) and washed it. A neighbour(邻居) came and looked at the new car for a minute. Then Mr. King turned and saw him.
“That's a new car. Is it yours?” The neighbour asked.
“Sometimes,” Mr. King answered.
The neighbour was surprised. “Sometimes?” he said. “What do you mean?”
“Well,”answered Mr. King slowly, “When there's a party in town, it's my daughter's. When there's a football game, it belongs to(属于) my son. When I wash it and it looks very nice and clean, it belongs to my wife. And when it needs gas(汽油), it's mine. ”

Mr. Jones and Mr. Brown work in the same office. One day Mr Jones said to Mr Brown, "I will have a small party at our house on Monday evening. Would you and your wife(夫人) like to come?" Mr. Brown, said, "Thank you very much. I'd love to, but let me ask my wife first." So Mr. Brown went to the other room and called his wife. Then he came back and looked very worried(焦虑). "What's the matter?" asked Mr. Jones. " Is your wife there at home?"
"No, " answered Mr. Brown, -"She isn't there. My small son answered the telephone. I said to him 'Is your mother there,David?' and he answered. 'No, she isn't in the house.' 'Where's she?' I asked, 'She is somewhere (某处)outside.' 'What's she doing?' 'She is looking for me.'"
1.There was a party at Mr. Jones' house on Monday evening.Water is very important to people. We must drink water every day. We can’t live without water. Water is everywhere around us. At home, we use water to wash clothes, to wash dishes, to cook meals, to clean the flat, to have showers, to make drinks, to clean our teeth, to have a bath and so on.
At work, people use water to put out fires, to grow vegetables, to make things in factories and so on. We also can swim on the earth. Water is important to us, isn’t it? However, there isn’t much water on the earth. It is very valuable. We must save it. If we waste too much water, one day in the future, the last drop of water on the planet will be our tear.
