can help us now, I wish God(上帝)would send someone to help us!" The other mouse said aloud, "Don't be
afraid, my friend. We must not lose heart. We must keep trying. "But a few minutes later, the first mouse
gave up hope. He did not try and so he drowned. The other mouse saw his friend drowning in the milk and
felt very sorry. Yet he kept moving his own legs to try to keep afloat(漂浮的). Finally the mouse climbed out

Where is better to watch a movie, in a cinema or at home Different people might have different ideas. Many people think the cinema has a better atmosphere(气氛)to enjoy the movie. However, I think people
are happier and freer when watching movies at home.
Watching movies at home is more comfortable. To watch movies in a cinema, you have to buy a ticket before you go there for a better seat. However, there is no need for people at home to worry about the ticket.
They can enjoy movies at any time they like and with the most comfortable seats. What's more, people
watching movies at home wouldn't have to face any trafic(交通)problems.
It's free to watch movies at home. In the cinema, we can't go outside or do anything else because the movie won't wait for us. Sometimes, if we miss part(部分)of the movie, we can't know what happened
just now in the movie. At home, we can pause at any time and go back to watch the missing part.
All in all, a cinema is a good place to watch movies, but it isn't the best place to enjoy the movies. I think
watching movies at home is the better.
