Wendy lived with her parents, Mr and Mrs Darling, and her brothers, John and Michael, at number 14 (the house number on their street).

Don’t worry, Be happy
If I were a bird, I’d fly up high,
Above the clouds, up in the sky.
I’d float and sing and soar and play,
Without any worries to ruin my day.

If I were a dolphin, I’d splash in the sea,
And drive and flip--what fun for me!
I’d play with friends under the sea so blue.
There’d be no chores or homework to do.

If I were a bear, I’d sleep all day,
And then wake up at night to play.
I’d fish and run and jump and climb,
With no one around to ruin my good time.

If I were a dog, during the day I’d rest,
So when my master came home, I’d be at my best--
Ready to run or play ball or catch,
Ready to jump, roll over, or fetch.

But I’m not a dog or a bird or a bear.
I’m not a dolphin who can swim everywhere.
I’m just a kid who wants to have fun,
But I know I can’t till my work’s all done!

Welcome to the Gale Hills Town Hall for tonight’s special community meeting. My name is Sarah Wattle. Tonight we will discuss wind power. This is very important to our town- a company wants to build wind turbines in Gale hills.I know that some of you want these wind turbines to be built, and some of you don’t. So I thought it would be best if we heard from the experts(专家), Dave and Eva. After their talk, we should have a better understanding about wind power and can decide what we want for Gale Hills.
Now, please welcome Dave to the stage!
Thank you, Sarah. It’s great to be here. I love Gale Hills. One reason I love this town so much is because it’s perfect for wind power. And I hope that you will build wind turbines here.

Thank you, Dave. Now, Eva will give us a different idea.
Thank you, Sarah Wattle. I don’t want wind turbines to be built in Gale Hills. First, wind turbines are noisy. The windier it is, the noisier they are.

So I say to you all tonight, please don’t let them build wind turbines in Gale Hills.
Thank you, Eva, and thank you again, Dave. That was a very interesting discussion.
And next week we will vote(投票) on if we should have wind turbines in Gale Hills. I ask you to think long and hard about it.

Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying: Friends are God’s way of taking care of us. But how do you find real friendship and keep it?
First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to your complaints(抱怨) and do their best to help. Second, To make a friend, you cannot be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.
But things cannot always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to them. When there is no one around, have an honest talk. If he or she doesn't want to talk, you could write a letter.
there are three steps to being friends again: Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what
your friend has done wrong, and explain why you did this or that.
Finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed and take care of it to make it grow. So remember friendship is the most important thing in your life.
