It was Saturday again.Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays.That was another thing the twins had in common.They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner.In fact,it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.
Unlike their classmates,they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons.Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet lesson.“How I wish I could do something different today,” said the twins with one voice.All at once,an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time.“How would you like to be me for a day ” they asked each other.It seemed like a wonderful plan to them.After giving each other a description of their own friends,Grace put on Karen’s ballet dress while Karen put Grace’s brushes and paints into her bag.Then they left for their classes.
When the art lesson started,Karen was lost.Unlike Grace,Karen was poor at drawing.When the art lesson finally ended,Karen didn’t dare to hand in her work.
Meanwhile,Grace was struggling in the ballet class as well.As she had no idea about the dance steps,she had to follow her classmates blindly.As a result,she kept knocking into them.Their ballet teacher became impatient with her,“Karen,you should remember the basic steps.You can’t rely on copying what others are doing.”
When Karen and Grace got home,they were tired out.They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not.It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.

Jim Green has been in China for more than two years. He has been to many interesting places in Beijing, but he has not yet been to many other parts of China. Last week he went to Mount Emei in Sichuan Province with his family.
　　Many people like to travel by air, but Jim’s family think that traveling by train is the best. It is much cheaper and far more enjoyable than a rushed trip by air. They had a wonderful train ride to Chengdu before they went on to Mount Emei by bus.
　　Early one morning, they took a taxi to Beijing West Railway Station. The station was very lively. There were bookshops, food shops and stores selling all kinds of things. Mrs. Green bought some fruit, food and bottles of water to take on the train. She said that it was better to get some food before they got on the train because food on the train was usually too expensive.
　　The train was quite comfortable, and there weren’t too many people in their sleeping car. The Greens could stand up and walk around. It was a long journey, but none of them felt tired. They kept watching the beautiful scenery out of the window. They walked, laughed and played cards. The conductor kept coming to offer them hot water and selling them magazines. People nearby talked with each other. A young man practiced speaking English with Mr. Green. Jim thought the train was like a big moving party. He went to sleep quite late. He listened to the click of the rails and then fell fast asleep.
