Hello, I’m Paul. We have some clubs in our school — the music club, the chess club, the sports club and so on. Many boys think sports are interesting and relaxing. So they want to join the sports club. What sports can the boys play? Well, Bill can play baseball. He can also play tennis. Frank and Mike can play volleyball. Basketball is very popular (受欢迎的). David, Peter and Jim love basketball best.

We all know Lin Shuhao is a great basketball player. Some boys want to be a basketball player like him. Some girls also like playing basketball. Can you play basketball? If not, I can tell you how to play basketball. I’m in the basketball club. I can play it well. It’s not easy to be a good player. But if you work hard and often play it, you can do well, too.

Molly is my cousin. She is twenty-seven years old. She works at a radio station. She thinks it’s an interesting job. Today I will tell you about her life.

Molly says she is very busy from Monday to Friday. She has a nice breakfast at 7:15. After that, she goes to work. She usually gets home at about 7:00 p.m. Then she makes dinner and has it at about 8:00 p.m. Then she watches TV with her cat. At about ten o’clock, she goes to bed.

On weekends, she is relaxed. On Saturday, she either plays ping-pong or goes to the movies (看电影). They are relaxing for her. What does Molly usually do on Sunday? She always goes to the art club. She is good at drawing.

“You like art. Why not be an artist (艺术家)?” I ask her. Molly says, “I like to talk to people. I can help many people in this way (方式).”

It’s Sunday today. Sun Min doesn’t go to school. She doesn’t need to get up early. After getting up, she has an egg and an apple for breakfast. And then she does her homework. She finishes her homework at 11:00 a.m. At noon, Sun Min goes to a clothes store and buys a blue T-shirt for her father. Because her father’s birthday is next week.

What does Sun Min do in the afternoon? She goes to the piano lesson. She likes playing the piano and she wants to be a piano star. Sun Min runs very fast. She wants to be a running star, too. Her favorite sports star is Su Bingtian. She also likes Lang Lang.

How are you? I have a good time in my new school. I usually go to school at half past six.     36     It takes me about half an hour to ride to school. I like my new teachers and classmates in this school. They all like me, too.

As you know, I like sports and music.     37     They are the ping-pong club and the music club.

    38     Her name is Helen. She likes music and she is good at singing. She can also play the guitar and the violin. She says she wants to be a music teacher.     39     On weekends she often plays tennis or ping-pong with me.
