Welcome to the Big Bus Tour（旅游）of Hong Kong

Boys and girls! Let’s take the Big Bus tour today. You will see all the city’s famous sights. Popular stops include (包括) the Ladies Market, Victoria Peak, Man Mo Temple, Soho and Stanley Market.

In Hong Kong, there are a lot of big buses with two floors. You’d better sit on the second floor. There you can watch the city very well. How interesting!

When you travel in Hong Kong, you must be careful of the traffic rules, because the traffic keeps to the left. And the rules are different from those of the interior (內(nèi)地) of China. The Big Bus sightseeing (觀光) tour is a safe and relaxing way to visit this great city.

“It’s raining cats and dogs!” shouted Grandpa.

Little Richie came running to the window. He wanted to see the cats and dogs. He really liked cats and dogs, but when he looked out of the window, he was disappointed. All he saw was the rain. There were no cats or dogs at all.

“It looks like the rain is coming down in sheets (床單),” said Richie’s cousin Thomas.

“Sheets?” Richie looked again. He didn’t see any sheets.

Everyone in the family started to look out of the window now.

“Yes. It’s really coming down in torrents (急流)!” Uncle Bob said when he looked out of the window too.

Richie thought, “What was coming down? First someone talked about cats and dogs. Then someone talked about sheets. Now someone said ‘it’. Why can’t I understand them?”

“Wow!” Aunt Susie shouted when she looked out of the window. “It’s raining really hard.”

Richie looked at his aunt. “Yes. It is raining hard,” he said, “but where are the cats, dogs and sheets?”

“Richie, all those just mean it’s raining really hard,” said Grandpa.

“So why didn’t you just say that?” asked Richie.

“We did. You just didn’t know these sayings,” said Richie’s cousin.

“Well, now I do,” said Richie.

“Oh, the cat’s out of the bag, then,” said Grandma.

“What cat?” asked Richie.

Everyone said, “Oh, not a real cat again.”

“Right,” said Grandma. “The secret is out.”

“I get it,” said Richie.

Some people do not like anything to be out of place. They are never late for work; they return their books to the library on time; they remember people’s birthdays; and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive. Mr. Dodds is such a person.

Mr. Dodds works in a bank, and lives on his own. Mr. Dodds does not see his sister, or her family, from one year to the next, but he sends them Christmas cards, and he has not forgotten one of Mark’s seventeen birthdays.

Last week Mr. Dodds had a surprise. He drove home from the bank at the usual time, driving neither too slowly nor too fast. He parked his car where he always parked it, and he went inside to make this evening meal. Straight away, there was a knock at the door. Mr. Dodds opened the door only to find a policeman standing on the door-step.

“What have I done wrong?” Mr. Dodds asked himself. “Have I driven on the wrong side of the road? Has there been some trouble at the bank? Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?”

“Hello, uncle,” said the policeman, “My name is Mark.”

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you get the most from them, and be sure you do not waste (浪費(fèi)) this great chance to learn?

Be active (積極的) at school Don’t say things are difficult or boring. Take interest in school life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. Go around the school with a big smile every day.

Keep fit If you don’t eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late, you will be sleepy in class. Play enough sports every day in order to keep your body strong.

Face the problem Do not say you will do things tomorrow. You cannot finish the race if you rest all the time. Everyone fails some exams, loses some matches and has bad days. Don’t forget to ask for help. You are young, and no one thinks you must do everything quite well!

Spend the weekends Don’t waste time lying in bed on Saturday or Sunday morning. Get together with friends in the park to relax. If you don’t want to go out, there are also a lot of things to do. You may read a book, practice English or help Mum with housework.

Follow our advice, and have a happy school life!
