Bob and Jim once worked in the same factory. One day, Bob lent Jim ten dollars, but then Jim left his work and went to work in another town without giving back the money.
Bob didn’t see Jim for a year. And at that time he knew that Jim was in another town and staying at a hotel (旅馆) .So he went there to look for him late in the evening.
When he got to Jim’s room, he saw his shoes near the door. “Well, he must be in,” he thought and knocked at the door. There was no answer. He knocked again and said, “I know you are in, Jim. Your shoes are out here.”
“I’ve gone out in my boots (靴子),” answered Jim.

Long long ago, in ancient China, there lived a farmer. He was worried that his seedlings (秧苗) grew too slowly.
One day, he went to the fields (田地) and pulled up the seedlings one by one. When he returned home, he was exhausted (筋疲力尽的). “I am tired out today,” he said to his family, “I helped the seedlings grow.”
His son was surprised. He hurried to the fields to see what had happened. It turned out that all the seedlings had shriveled up (枯萎).
1．The story happened in modern China. （Wood has many uses. It is a very important kind of building material. Wood can be made into desks, chairs, beds and many other things. Paper is made from wood too.
Only trees can provide enough wood. Trees can provide us with oxygen (氧气) and make the air fresh. In hot summer, trees give us shade (阴凉处；树荫) and make our surroundings more beautiful. What’s more, trees can stop soil (土壤) from being washed away by heavy rain. Since trees are so important to us, we should plant more trees. At the same time, many effective measures (有效措施) should be taken to protect forests and prevent trees from being cut down.
1．Wood is a kind of building material. （In Australia, National Tree Day is on the last Sunday in July. In China, Tree Planting Day is on 12th March. Trees are very important in our life. Trees make our city beautiful. We can get a lot of things from trees. We get fruit from trees. We also get wood from trees. We use wood to make pencils, desks and chairs. We can use wood to make paper ,too. Trees can keep the air clean. They can cool the air, too. So we should love trees. We should plant more trees.
