Halloween Party
We're having a Halloween party at school.
I'm dressed up like Dracula. Man, I look cool!
I made my hair black and I cut off my bangs.
I'm wearing a cape1 and some fake plastic fangs3.
I put on some makeup4 to paint my face white,
Like creatures that only come out in the night.
My fingernails, too, are all pointed5 and red.
There's no doubt I look like the evil undead.
My mom drops me off and I run into school,
And suddenly feel like the world's biggest fool.
The other kids stare like I'm some kind of freak.
The Halloween party is not next week.

万圣节晚会
我们将在学校举办一个万圣节晚会。
我装扮成吸血鬼的样子。看，我多酷！
我把我的头发染成黑色，剪去刘海，
我穿上斗篷和戴上假的塑料尖牙。
我用化妆品把脸涂白，
像那些仅在夜里出世的生灵。
我的手指甲也是尖的，红色的。
毫无疑问我看上去就像个不死的恶魔。
母亲让我下了车，我冲进了学校，
突然我感觉自己像是世界上最大的傻子。
其他的孩子像看怪物一样地瞪着我，
万圣节晚会要到下星期才开始呢。

My Uncle’s Farm
My Uncle Tom has a small farm. He has a lot of chickens. Every summer, during the holidays, I go to his farm and help him. I feed the chickens and collect and clean the eggs. Uncle Tom pays me something for my help.
Twice a week we put the eggs in boxes and take them to town. There my uncle sells them. He gets quite a lot of money for them.

Danielle’s Story of Team Sports
Being involved in a team sport is not only fun, it's a great way to meet new friends and learn new things. When I was younger, I played basketball and soccer, skating, performed gymnastics1, played piano, and danced. One of my best friends is a girl who I met while playing basketball. Most of my fondest memories come from being involved in those activities. Though I was never really the best at any of those activities, I always had fun. The first year I played basketball I was on a team of all boys. The ball was rarely2 passed to me, but I learned3 a bunch4 of new techniques and I learned to love basketball much more.
Sometimes, if you're on a team sport you may feel self-conscious, but remember that everyone probably feels the same way as you. Hopefully you all will learn to appreciate the value of team sports as much as I did. Go team! involve 牵涉，涉及 perform gymnastics 练/表演体操
rarely 很少 technique 技巧 self-conscious 害羞的，怕难为情的

丹妮尔团队运动故事
参加团队运动不仅有趣而且是结交新朋友学习新事物的好途径。当我年轻的时候，我打篮球和橄榄球，滑冰，练体操，弹钢琴，跳舞。我最好的一个朋友是我在打篮球时遇到的一个女孩。我大多数的美好记忆都来自于参加这样的活动。虽然我从来没有真正擅长过其中的某一项，但我从中得到乐趣。我第一年打篮球时，队伍中都是男生。球很少传给我，但是我还是学会了一些新技术，我也越来越喜欢打篮球了。
参加团队运动，有时你会感到害羞，但是记住每个人可能都会有你这样的感觉。希望你能和我一样学着体会团队运动的价值。去参加团队运动吧！
