Mr and Mrs Brown lived in a small house near London. They have got a child. Mr Brown worked very hard. Very often he came back late when his wife and his child were asleep. He would open the front door of the house with his key and came in very quietly.
But one night when he was coming home later, he found that he lost the key. So when he reached his house, he rang the bell. Nothing happened. He rang it again. Again nothing happened—nobody moved inside the house. Mr Brown knocked at the bedroom window, he spoke to his wife, he shouted, but she did not wake up.

If someone asks me, “Do you like music?” I’m sure I will answer him or her, “Of course, I do.” Because I think music is an important part of our lives.
Different people have different ideas about music. For me, I like rock music because it is so exciting. And my favourite rock band, the “Foxy Ladies” is one of the most famous rock bands in the world. I also like pop music. My classmate Li Lan loves dance music, because she enjoys dancing. My best friend, Jane, thinks jazz is really cool.
