I like orange, because its a happy, warm colour. It can make people feel comfortable. My best friend Jack doesnt agree though. He thinks green is better. Jack says that green represents nature and that it can make you feel energetic. I remind Jack that green is also the colour of envy. My mother recommends blue. She thinks blue creates a feeling of harmony, so it will make me less stressed and help me relax after school. Perhaps she is right. Thank you for your letter. I hope I can offer you some useful advice. You said you do not have enough time to do homework. Plan your day carefully. Make a list of all the homework you have to do. Then work out how much time you need to finish it. This will give you an idea of how much free time you have. You also said that you do not have enough time for your hobbies. Perhaps you can choose one hobby to do each day, or just focus on your favourite hobby, painting. UNICEF was set up in 1946 to help children after the war in Europe. Now, UNICEF helps children all over the world. It works in 158 countries. It helps governments and families make the world a better place for children. UNICEF gets its money from donations. It raises money by selling Christmas cards and organizing other fund-raising activities. People can help UNICEF by doing voluntary work. UNICEF believes that all children should have clean water and food so that they can be healthy. It also believes that they should go to school instead of working to support their families. Halloween is on October 31st. People celebrate it in many ways. Children wear special costumes and masks on Halloween. Many children play a game called trick or treat. They knock on their neighbours doors and shout trick or treat. Their neighbours usually give them some candy as a treat. If the children do not get any candy, they can play a trick on their neighbours. Some people also make lantern out of big orange pumpkins. They cut out the eyes, the nose and sharp teeth. They put candles in them so the light shines through the eyes, the nose and the teeth. Dear editor Im a reader of your magazine and I need help. Im in the eighth grade.

We have a big library. We also have a tennis court and s swimming pool. There are lots of clubs and after-school activities. Every month, we go on a school trip to a museum or a theater. All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea. In China people like to have tea together with their friends. They drink tea at any time of the day. They put only tea leaves in their cups. They prefer tea with nothing in it. Tea is also popular in Japan. People have tea every day. But the way they drink it is different from that in China. In the USA people drink tea at breakfast or after meals. They usually use tea bags to make their tea. We have a students radio station on our school. It started two years ago. I have been a member of the radio station for two years. Every morning we tell the students about the weather and the latest news, plus some special messages hat the teachers want us to mention.

When parents come to visit the school, we always play songs sung by the students, and we also report special events. I will graduate soon, Ill really miss the radio station.

For lunch and dinner, you can have rice, vegetable and some meat. You can have an orange or an apple after each meal. You need regular exercise too. You can exercise for about 30 minutes every day. You can swim, run and play basketball. However, do not play computer games or chat with friends on the Internet for hours every day. This is not exercise. Get out of you chair, everyone! Change your diet and lifestyle today! I think Wang Jian is the most suitable person to be the chairperson of the Students union. She has many excellent qualities.

Tom was shocked when he was charged with robbery. A policeman told him about a robbery at the jewellery. A witness said she saw someone run from the shop into Toms building. Ton was nor guilty, but how could he prove it? During the day we work and play. At night we sleep. In the morning we are ready to work and play again. While we are asleep, our bodies grow most. We can do better at our lessons and we feel better too when we have had enough rest. Boys and girls who are eight or nine years old need ten hours of sleep every nigh. Our bodies need plenty of air when we sleep. If we do not get enough fresh air, we will be tired when we wake up. While in bed we must not cover our heads. If we do, we will not get enough fresh air. If we open our windows at night, we can have plenty of fresh air. Boys and girls who want to grow and be strong must get plenty of sleep. Dear Sandy I have just listened to a programme on the radio. It was about a new CD-ROM pack called Daily English. It is a new course from Australia. The pack includes a book and five CD-ROMs. It is very good for tourists and students.

The course covers many topics, such as travel and hotels, food and drink, and shopping and money. I am going to order a pack online. Do you want me to order one for you too?

Eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep and exercising regularly are all important for young people. At school, planning ahead can help. Making a list of all the things they need to do and planning when to do them can help students organize their time. They should not worry too much about being popular. They should just be themselves. Finally, students should make enough time for their hobbies. Playing sport, reading and watching films can help them relax. This years Beijing Music Awards will be covered live.

A man named Su Ning called 110 at 7.40 p.m. using his mobile phone. His car crashed into a tree while he was driving in the snowstorm. He and his wife were trapped in the car. The snow was heavy and it covered everything. The policemen arrived at once and sent them to hospital. Luckily, they were not hurt. What about London? Do you have snowstorm there?

It is true that mobile phones can be very useful. They are an easy way to keep in touch with friends and family members anywhere and at any time. But we also hear mobile phones ringing in places like classrooms, cinemas and museums. The sound id very loud and can disturb people. Some drivers have accidents because they use their mobile phones while driving. So, are mobile phones really a good thing? Giant pandas are beautiful black-and white animals that look like bears.

When the babies are born, they look like little white mice. There are only about a thousand giant pandas in the world now. their number is getting smaller every year. If people keep taking the land, giant pandas will have nowhere to live. Also, people hunt them for their fur. If this continues, there will be no giant pandas in the world.
