3 . What will the car be like in the future? Maybe the car can drive itself.

About 40 years ago, scientists from the United States started to make self-driving cars. The most famous one was made by Google in 2009. There are cameras and radars (雷达) on the top of the car. They let the computer in the car draw a 3D map of the environment (环境). Chinese scientists have also successfully made a self-driving car. The car made a trip from Changsha to Wuhan.

Is a self-driving car safe? A recent (最近的) study shows that robots make safer drivers than people. If only 10% of cars on the street are self-driving, they will save 1,000 lives every year. If 90% of vehicles (交通工具) are self-driving, 21,700 lives will be saved a year. But a self-driving car is expensive and each costs about $100,000. So it is impossible to be very popular in the near future.

4 . Summer is here! It’s time to take the tent and walk into the forest for a fun weekend of camping.

Always tell someone what your plans are, where you are going, what time you will be back and who will be with.

Never go alone. It’s better to have someone with you.

Make sure you have everything you need before you go out.You can write them down on a piece of paper and put them one by one into your schoolbag.

Know some first aid(急救) and carry a first aid kit(急救包) with you.

Know the area you are camping in and how to get back home. If you’re not sure about your camping abilities(能力), take an adult with you.

They spend a lot of their free time at home. The most popular activity is watching TV. People in the UK watch TV for about 25 hours a week.

Many people in the UK have pets. They like playing with their pets in their free time.

In summer, gardening (园艺) is popular. And families often have a “day out” on the weekend. They often go to a festival or see a show. Young people like to go to clubs, and people of all ages like to go to the cinema.

6 . Nearly every parent says that we never grow up. In fact, we are maybe 16 or 17 years old. In their eyes, we are always little ones and always do wrong things. For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.

Most parents always think that they have offered the best things to make their children live in a comfortable world. They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, strange but expensive school things, and always a thousand-yuan-cost bike. They think that they have done everything they can do to their dear little children. In return, they only want their little babies to give them good results in the exams（考试）.

But their little babies still can’t understand them. Why? Do they still want more material （物质的）things? No! They just want a true family. What does a true family mean? I think in a true family, we can hide ourselves from the outside cold world. From here, we can get warmth, and we can get happiness.

So I think that parents should save their money and sit down to talk with their children. And the child and his parents could understand each other better. Then, no boy will be a little boy any longer. That will be great help to both the parents and their child.

Now emojis (表情符号) are very popular (流行的). Lots of people use them. Using emojis is becoming (变成) a part of many people' s everyday life (日常生活).     

Emojis were used in Japan first. Now more and more Chinese people also like to use emojis on QQ and WeChat (微信). Some funny emojis are even created (创造) in China. For example, the popular emoji “ Funny” is created in China.

Do you like emojis ? Do you want to have emoji pillows (枕头)? There are different kinds of emoji pillows. You can buy them on the Internet (互联网上).

Amy, an English girl, said: "I love emoji pillows very much. They are lovely. When I see them, I feel happy.”

8 . Hi, I’m Tom. I have a pencil box. It's big and it's purple. It's my good friend. It's from my mom. What's in the pencil box? My ruler is in it. It's blue and red. That is a pencil. It is black and white. It's not my pencil. It's Cindy's. She likes black and white. You can see a green pen and an eraser in it, too. The pen isn't mine. I found it in the classroom this morning. It's Tim’s. His name is on it. He isn’t at school now. Tim’s telephone number is 8069-4725. I can call him. The nice eraser is my sister, Linda's.
