“Mom, you won’t believe what Anna’s grandfather bought her for her birthday!” shouted Michelle.

“What?” asked Mom.

“A horse,” said Michelle. “Can I have one for my birthday?” “No, Honey! I’m sorry but we don’t have enough money,” said Mom.

Michelle walked to her room. The phone rang (响起铃声), and Michelle answered. “Will you get one for your birthday?” asked Anna. “We can ride them together.” “No,” said Michelle. “Mom said we don’t have enough money.” “Oh. Er... I have to feed Sir Charles. See you tomorrow,” said Anna.

I know it’s not the same as having your own horse, but ...” said Mom. “It’s better,” said Michelle. “Why?” asked Mom.

“Anna has to feed Sir Charles every day. It takes lots of time,” said Michelle. “So you’re satisfied?” asked Mom.

“Of course. It’s the best birthday gift ever,” said Michelle. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

Dear Tommy,

I’m in Paris now! Mom, Sally and I came here to visit my uncle. We are having a wonderful time. Dad didn’t come because his company (公司) sent him to work in Japan last month. He will have to stay there until November.

For Sally and me, it’s our first time to come to France. We are so excited! Last week Mom went to different shows alone. She used to study in Paris, so she knows the city well. Sally and I visited many interesting places with Aunt Susan. Although we can’t speak French, it’s OK. Aunt Susan and Uncle Tyler can speak both French and English.

Yesterday afternoon, Mom, Sally and Aunt Susan stayed home cooking dinner. Uncle Tyler took me fishing. We drove for an hour and finally arrived at his favorite lake. First, we walked around the lake looking for a good place to fish. Uncle Tyler said we should fish from the top of a large rock.

I was so interested in catching a fish that when I threw my fishing line and hook (鱼钩) out, the rod (鱼竿) went with them! Uncle Tyler got my rod out of the lake. Then he said that next time, I should wait until he put bait (鱼饵) on the hook.

We fished for two hours and my uncle caught four fish. He is a fantastic fisherman. The only thing I caught was a cold. I can’t wait to go again soon, so I can become a great fisherman like him.

Yours,

Frank

On Thursday a new boy came into the classroom. He didn’t have any uniform on. Just trousers, a jacket and a shirt. Tom could see that the boy wasn’t quite comfortable. He had a plastic (塑料的) bag with exercise books, pens, pencils, rulers and erasers in it. The boy stood at the blackboard.

Peter will spend a lot of time together with you, and outdoors too.” Miss Fair asked Peter to sit next to Tom at the desk near the window.

The students had math after that and Tom could see that Peter was not bad at it. He counted (数数) well. It was not difficult for him at all. Then Miss Fair said, “It is half past twelve. It’s time to have lunch.” Peter joined Tom and went to wash his hands. Then the boys sat down on the floor and started to open their lunch bags. Tom opened his bag and put his hand in it. He took out an old brown apple, some old cheese and some bits of fish from dinner. “Oh, no!” cried Tom. “This is rubbish. I have the wrong bag. I took the rubbish bag and left my lunch bag at home. I have only rubbish for lunch today.” The other children laughed and laughed. Then Peter said, “I have two eggs. Why don’t you have one? I don’t need two.

A lift is very useful. It looks like a small room. It goes up and down all day. Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates（操作） it up and down. In modern lifts there's no worker. People walk in. They know what floor they want to go. They push a button(按钮)and the lift goes to that floor. It's very fast and easy.

Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all thestairs(楼梯)? Maybe people can climb them once. Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their rooms on the twenty-four floor? Can their mothers or fathers carry food up to all those stairs? Of course not. We can have very high buildings because we have lifts. We could not have all the beautiful tall buildings without lifts. Because it is too tired for people to climb the stairs every day. 根据短文的意思回答问题或完成句子。
