Look at that boy. His name is Liu Bing. He's a Chinese boy. He is in the kitchen. He likes apples. Su Yang is at home too. She is in the study. She likes drawing. Is Gao Shan at home? No, he is in the park. He is thirsty. He wants to drink some juice. Miss Li is in the office. She is reading.
1.Liu Bing is in the kitchen .Americans with small families own a car. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. If the family is big, they will buy a van (面包车).
Americans call vans “motor homes”. A motor home is always used for holidays. When a family is travelling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days or weeks. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happy trip because they are travelling together. That is why motor homes become popular. In America, there is a lot of parking for motor homes.
Mr Black and his wife had a third child last year. So they bought (买) a van. They put things on the sixth and the seventh seats, because a family of five must carry many suitcases (旅行箱) when they travel.

In England, nobody under the age of eighteen can drink in a bar (酒吧). Mr Green often went to a bar near his house, but he never took his son, Tom, because Tom was too young. After Tom had his eighteenth birthday party, Mr Green took Tom to his usual bar for the first time. There was one light at the end of the bar. They drank for an hour, and then Mr Green said to his son, “Now, Tom, I want to give you a lesson. You must be careful not to drink too much. How do you know when you have had enough? Well, let me tell you. Can you see those two lights at the end of the bar? If they seem to become four, you have had enough and should go home.”

Esperanto 5-26-2013 2:23 pm I had a tour to Britain last year. It’s a very nice place. I had a great time there. If you get a change, visit Stratford. That’s the town where Shakespeare lived. |
Yoshi 5-26-2013 2:28 pm First, you should make sure what you want to do there. Each country in Europe has so much to see. Are you interested in museums and castles (城堡)? Or do you want to get to know anything modern? |
Cyber Boy 5-26-2013 3:02 pm Yoshi—Good questions. I’d like to see some museums, but I also want to try some of France’s famous food, and a castle would also be great. |
Yoshi 5-26-2013 23:21 pm I think an English-France-Germany trip might work well for you. You can do a little bit of everything. That’s wonderful. |
Esperanto 5-26-2013 3:38 pm It’s easier to say than to do. It will need a lot of money and take time. Cyber Boy isn’t so rich. I think he’d better go to France first this time and he is still able to travel to England or Germany in the future if possible. |
Yoshi 5-26-2013 3:54 pm Esperanto—That sounds OK. But I’m not sure if he will have another trip to Europe. |
