How are the chickens Lots of fowl (飞禽） especially the chickens and ducks in Asia have died of a kind of disease since December, 2003. It is named bird flu（禽流感）. Even some people in Vietnam and Thailand were infected. Many people stop eating chicken, duck and eggs to keep them away from the bird flu.（以免被感染上禽流感） The United Nations is calling for money and technical help for countries in Asia to stop the spread of the bird flu.2. American students do part -time jobs In America, many parents want their children to be independent. They are happy when their children get a part-time job. American students like to make money by working. Middle school boys may deliver newspapers or wash cars. Girls babysit or sell things door-to-door. In high school, boys mow lawns（修理草坪） for people, work in supermarkets or gas stations, or wash dishes in restaurants. Girls may work as waitresses. They dont make much money per hour, but Americans give tips. These girls can get a lot of money from tips. With a job, American students can make some money. They can use the money to buy books, CDs, and other things. With a job, they can learn many things. They do not learn these things in school. With a job, they feel good about themselves. This is good for growing up.3. My free timeMy free time is interesting. From Monday to Friday, when I have some free time, I usually watch TV, listen to music or read. If my friend Tom is free, too, we will meet and play computer games at home or play football in the park near his house. On Saturday mornings, I usually clean my room and go shopping with my mother. Saturday evening is my favorite time of the week. I like meeting my friends and going to a fast-food restaurant. There we eat and talk. After that we go to the movies. On Sundays, I often have a good time with my family. We often go on a trip to the countryside. We have lunch at different restaurants there. I like my free time.4.
