赫廣春

I was going to bed the other night when my wife told me that I had left the light on in the shed（藏室）. She could see it from the bedroom window.

As I looked for myself， I saw that there were people in the shed taking things. I phoned the police， but they told me that no one was in this area to help at this time， but they would send someone over as soon as they were available （有空的;可利用的）.

I said OK， hung up， and waited one minute， then phoned the police back. “Hello. I just called you a minute ago because there were people in my shed. Well， you dont have to worry about them now because Ive shot them all.”

Within five minutes there were half a dozen （半打;六個(gè)） police cars in the area. And the alarm （警報(bào)器） works. Of course， they caught the thieves. One of the officers said， “I thought you said that youd shot them！” I replied with “I thought you said there was nobody available！”

那天晚上，我剛要上床睡覺，妻子告訴我說我沒有關(guān)儲藏室的燈，她從臥室的窗戶看見燈還亮著。

我透過窗戶朝那邊看，發(fā)現(xiàn)有人正在偷東西。我趕忙報(bào)警，但是警察說現(xiàn)在沒有警察在我家的這片位置，他們一有了人手就馬上派過來。

我說沒問題，然后掛了電話，等了一分鐘，又給他們打過去：“你好。一分鐘前我打電話了，我告訴你說有人正在我家的儲藏室偷東西。但是現(xiàn)在沒事了，因?yàn)槲覄倓傞_槍把他們都打死了。”

隨后，五分鐘之內(nèi)有六輛警車來到了我家，警報(bào)器也響了。當(dāng)然，他們當(dāng)場抓住了竊賊。有個(gè)警察對我說：“我記得你說你把他們都打死了。”我回答道：“我記得你說現(xiàn)在誰都沒空！”

話題寫作

?Dear Eric，

You want to know about Chinese paper? cut. Here Im glad to tell you something about it.

Chinese paper?cut has a long history of over 2，000 years. It can be seen in different parts of China.

People in northern part of China do well in making paper?cut. They cut paper into different shapes， like birds， animals， flowers and so on.

Chinese paper?cut is not only beautiful but also very useful. People usually put them on doors or windows when they celebrate something happy， especially for the Spring Festival. I hope youll come to China to get to know it one day.

Yours，

?Our environment in ten years

Many students are optimistic about our environment in ten years.

In fact， they think that more and more people will take part in the environmental protection and our government will take more measures to improve our environment. As a result， our world will be more and more beautiful and we will have a better life.

However， other students are worried about the future. They say a great number of trees will be cut down and there will be more and more private cars on the roads. So， we may face more environmental problems and live in a world with less energy available.

In my opinion， we will find ways to solve our problems and I’m sure I’ll play a role in protecting our environment.

微格寫作

One thing Im proud of

I still remember how I became a good basketball player.

The first day I went to the junior middle school， I saw some of my classmates playing basketball. To my surprise， I became interested in playing basketball. Later on， I often watched them carefully to learn their techniques. Then I kept practising until I became confident enough to challenge the good players. At the end of the term， I became one of the best players in my class.

I am really proud of this experience， because it helps me realize that we can achieve our goals through hard work. It also helps me better understand the proverb “Practice makes perfect.”
