Do you know “cosplay(角色扮演)” It is the activity of dressing up as a fictitious(虚构的) character from cartoons, books, films, video games or TV shows. Some people spend a lot of money buying clothes, but many more enjoy making clothes by themselves in order to show their love for those fictitious characters.
Cosplaying needs a lot of work. Here are some steps on how to prepare for a cosplay:
● Plan your cosplay: You should choose a character you like. It’s also important to find pictures with almost every detail(细节) of the character.
● Make or buy your cosplay clothing: You’d better make a list of everything you need. Sometimes, you may need to change the size of the things like the shoes or the dresses you get.
● Pay attention to making up and haircut(化妆和发型): You should find someone to make you up. You should also have the same haircut as the character you want to cosplay.
Have fun doing your cosplay. You needn’t compare yourself with anyone else. You should feel proud of the work you do. Maybe you can also make some new friends there.

An old woman was playing a good game of bridge (打桥牌) with her friends one evening. “Oh, sorry! I have to go back home and make dinner for my husband! He is going to be really angry if it’s not ready on time!” she said suddenly.
When she got home, she realised that she didn’t have enough time to go to the supermarket, and all she had in the cupboard was a lettuce leaf, an egg, and a can of cat food. In a hurry she opened the can, mixed in the egg, and put the lettuce leaf on it just as her husband came back.
She watched nervously as her husband sat down to have his dinner. To her surprise, her husband really enjoyed his dinner. “My dear, this is the best dinner you have made for me in forty years of marriage. You can make this for me every day.”
So every bridge night from then on, the woman made her husband the same dish. She told her bridge friends about it and they were all surprised.
“You’re going to kill him!” they shouted at her. Two months later, her husband really died.
The women were sitting around the table playing bridge when one of the friends said, “You killed him! We told you that feeding him that cat food every week would do him in! How can you just sit there so calmly and play bridge knowing you killed your husband

书面表达
My favourite cartoon character is Garfield. I think everyone knows him because of his lazy and funny feature. He was born in a kitchen in the 1970s. His favourite hobby is sleeping. His best friend is the mirror. He always believes in himself. He likes to eat pizza very much. But he doesn't enjoy cakes with fruits. When he and his friends are in danger, he is very brave and clever. “Money is not everything,” this sentence is from Garfield. Many words like that can make people think. Garfield makes my life so interesting! Make friends with him; you will have fun too.
