One day when passing by a yard sale, I decided to stop and see what an old lady in a black coat was selling.

Of all the things, I wanted the toy plane most. My son was sure to love it. What’s more, I wanted to help the old lady because she was poor and sick.

“That is my son’s fifth birthday present,” she said.

“Your son’s? Fifth birthday present?” I said in a surprising voice. “But how old is he now?”

“He should be 50 years old this year, but he died 10 years ago. He used to enjoy it as a child.”

That broke my heart! At that moment I knew I had to do all I could to help her. I asked her, “How much are the rest of your things?” She replied, “$75.”

The Sahara is the largest desert in the world. It covers 11 countries in North Africa and is over 9 million square kilometres. It is a very difficult place to survive. Here is some advice for you.

Take warm clothes and a blanket (毛毯) . You will need a hat, long trousers and a thick sweater to keep you warm at night. During the day, cover your body, head and face. Clothes protect yourself from the sun and keep water in your body. You will also need a warm blanket at night. It can get cold rapidly.

It’s important to stay out of the sun during the day. Make a hole under your car and lie there. This will keep you cool and help you sleep.

Hello, everyone. I’m Li Hua from Class 3. I’m glad to stand here and talk with you. As we all know, the earth is like our home. It’s important to protect it. With a cleaner environment, we can live and work better. But now the air is polluted seriously. So is the water. There is rubbish here and there. So all of us need to do something to protect the environment. As for me, I never throw away rubbish. I always ride my bike to school instead of going in a car. To save energy, I often turn off the light before leaving the classroom. We have only one earth. It’s everyone’s duty to protect it.

Thanks for listening.
