Mrs Weeks was reading a newspaper story to her class. The story said:

Were you ever in a hospital when you were small? How did you feel? The doctors in Children’s Hospital are asking for money for children’s toys. Some children in the hospital must stay in bed for many weeks. Toys are needed to keep these sick children happy and quiet. Money for them can be sent to the hospital.

After Mrs. Weeks read the story, she said,“This story gave me an idea.”

“You want us to bring some money for the toys.”“We could bring some of our own toys for the children in the hospital,”said the boys and girls one after another.

“Well, your ideas would be nice,”Mrs. Weeks said,“but mine is different.”

Mrs. Weeks smiled. “Do you think you could make toys?”she asked.

“Yes, yes,”the whole class answered.

“Great! Let’s begin to make toys tomorrow,”said Mrs. Weeks.

On Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Weeks took the children to the hospital with the toys made by her students. The children in the hospital felt very happy to see the toys. The children in the class felt happy, too.

A few days later, Mrs. Weeks read another newspaper story to the class:

Some school pupils brought toys to Children’s Hospital last week. The toys were made by the pupils of Grade Three in Green Street School. The doctors said,“We have never had so many wonderful toys. Our children are very happy with them. They say, ‘THANK YOU, GRADE THREE’”

Mr. Ellis is very old. He has seen many changes in his home town.

He knows that things are different now. But he never forgets the old days. He likes to talk about them. He often talks about his favourite birds, the robins(欧洲的一种小鸟).“When I was a boy, these houses were not here. There were wide fields and tall trees. Every spring the robins would come. Thousands of them would fly up to the north from the south. They spent the winter in the south. Some would build their nests(巢)in the trees near our houses. Then people started to cut down trees, and they built more houses. The robins stopped coming. They couldn’t build their nests near our houses because there were no trees.”
