said, "There is no Father Christmas. "
I ran to my grandmother's house. Grandma was at home. I told everything. "No
Father Christmas?"she was a little "Don't believe it. Put on your coat, and let's go to Kerby's Store."
As we walked through its doors, Grandma handed me the dollars and said, "Take the
and buy something for someone who needs it. I'll wait for you in the car." Then she turned and walked out of the Kerby's.
For a few seconds I just stood there, holding the money, wondering to buy, and who
to buy it for.

a with bad breath and messy hair. He sat right behind me Mrs. Polack' s class.
Bobbie went to any party during the winter. His mother always wrote a note, telling
the teacher that he had a cough. We all knew that he didn't have a coat, I decided to buy Bobbie a red warm coat he would like.
That evening, Grandma helped me wrap(包)the coat, and "To Bobbie.From Father
Christmas" on it. Grandma told me Father Christmas never let people know that he them. Then she drove me over to Bobbie's home, telling me that I was helping Father Christmas
the presents.
We hid behind the trees near Bobbie's home. Then Grandma said to me, "All right, Father
Christmas, get going."
I took a deep breath, rushed to his front door, put the present down the door, rang the
doorbell and flew back to the shade of the and Grandma. We waited breathlessly in the dark. Finally the door opened and there stood Bobbie.
That night, I realized that Father Christmas was alive and that we were on his team.

八. 书面表达
There is a famous saying in China, "A year's plan starts with spring. "It tells us that the most important time of a year is spring. The Chinese Spring Festival is celebrated at the beginning of the year. At this time, people make up their new year's resolutions and plans for the whole year.
When the Spring Festival comes, no matter where people work, they'll come back home and get together with their family. Before the festival, people are usually busy cleaning up their houses and putting up couplets on the doors. On the eve of the festival, people always have a big dinner with their family, and then watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. As for children, they enjoy letting off fireworks and getting red bags. The next few days is a good time for people to visit their relatives and friends.
I like the Spring Festival best, too, because I can visit my relatives and get many red bags.
