Last Sunday was gray and cold. I walked into the kitchen and saw Mum leaning by the counter, hand on her forehead. “I have a fever,” she said. Dad was away on business, so I held her hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll deal with everything today!”
First, I cut the pumpkin (南瓜) and put it in a pot with rice to make Mum’s favourite pumpkin porridge. When it was ready, I took it to my mum. “It tastes like love,” Mum said. My face felt warm.
After breakfast, I found the living room was messy-toys everywhere, Dad’s newspapers on the sofa and litter under the table. I put toys in a basket, pocketed my sister’s teddy bear’s missing eye to fix later. Mopping the floor made my arms tired, but I danced to my song, moving the mop back and forth.
By noon, my legs were heavy, but the house smelled nice, and sunlight filled tidy rooms. I washed the breakfast dishes, singing happily. A plate slipped (滑落). But I caught it, thinking, “Mum never drops dishes, so I won’t either.”
Dad came home in the evening. He praised me, “Our little superhero!” Mum, sitting up, touched my red face. “You really did a great job.”
That night, as I set the table-a new habit now-I realized housework isn’t just housework. It’s like glue that holds our family close. Every tidy table, clean floor and warm bowl of porridge says, “I love you.” That’s the best work of all.

Books can be the best friend. But do you know how to enjoy reading books
Look for books in a library or a big bookstore. You can also ask friends if you can borrow their books.
If you find a good book, read the first page to see how to read it. Do not start to read it until you have the time. It is best for you to wait until you finish your homework.
Sit in a comfortable chair or sofa. Have a lamp on the back of you, lighting the room where you are reading. And then you do not have to get up soon after starting to read.
Be quiet. You should be calm before you begin to read. If there is too much noise, it’s not good for you to read.
Do not think about anything else, but what you’re reading. Put yourself into the story. If you read carefully, it will be difficult to put the book down.

Zheng He is a very famous adventurer (探险家) and sailor (航海家) of China. He was born in Yunnan Province in 1371. In 1403 Zhu Di became the Emperor of China and he asked Zheng He to join his new government.
The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power. He ordered people to build many new ships and made Zheng He their leader.

It is a pity (遗憾) that we may never learn everything about Zheng He’s travels. After Zheng He died in 1433, the new king, who believed these trips were unlucky and too expensive, ordered them to stop the travels and he burned almost all the books about Zheng He’s travels.

The days pass. Dorothy works very hard in the kitchen. She remembers Uncle Henry and Aunt Em in Kansas. She remembers her friends, the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman. She’s very sad and she often cries. At night she goes to see the Lion. The Witch (女巫) doesn’t give him anything to eat or drink, so Dorothy takes him food and water from the kitchen. Then she lies down next to him, puts her head on his warm body and sleeps until the morning.
The Witch watches Dorothy all the time. She’s waiting for the right moment to take the silver shoes. Dorothy wears them all the time. She loves them. The only time she takes them off is when she has a bath. The Witch doesn’t like water, so she’s afraid to go near the girl when she’s in the bath.
One day Dorothy is cleaning the kitchen and she slips on the wet floor. She falls over and one of the silver shoes comes off. The Witch picks it up quickly and puts it on.
“Give me back my shoe!” Dorothy says. “No! It’s my shoe now,” the Witch replies. “You are a bad woman!” Dorothy shouts. “I want my shoe!”
There’s a bucket of water near the door. The girl picks it up and throws the water over the Witch. “Aargh!” The Witch cries. “Water is the end of me!” And she starts to disappear in front of Dorothy’s eyes.
In another minute there’s just a lot of water on the kitchen floor. Dorothy quickly takes her shoe, puts it on again and runs outside.
“The Witch is dead!” she shouts. The Winkies look at her in surprise. They are also the Witch’s slaves. “We’re all free now!” she says to them. They start cheering and shouting, “The bad Witch is dead! We’re free! Thank you. Dorothy!”
Dorothy goes to the Lion and takes the rope off his neck. He’s very happy to be free again.

“Why are you so scared of us ” asked Dorothy. “You’re a lion! Lions are the kings of the forests.”
