Henry was an office worker in a big city. He worked very hard and enjoyed traveling in his holidays. He usually went to the seaside. But one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper. "Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm. Good food. Fresh air. Horse riding. Walking. Fishing. Cheap and
interesting. "
"This sounds like a good idea," he thought. "I'll spend a month at West Hill Farm. I think I can enjoy
horse riding, walking and fishing. They'll make a change from sitting by the seaside and swimming. " He
wrote to the farmer. In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there. Then on the first day
of July, he left for West Hill Farm.
But four days later, he returned home.
"What was wrong with West Hill Farm?" his best friend, Edward, asked him.
"Didn't you enjoy country life?" "Country life was very good," Henry said. "But there was another
problem. "
"Oh. What?"
"Well," he said, "the first day I was there a sheep died, and we had roast mutton for dinner. "
''What's wrong with that?" Edward asked. "Fresh meat is the best. "
"I know, but on the second day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner. "
"Lucky you ! "
"You don't understand," Henry said.
''On the third day a pig died and we had roast pork for dinner. "
"A different meat every day," Edward said loudly, "and you are complaining! "
"Let me finish," Henry said. "On the fourth day the farmer died, and I didn't dare(敢) stay for dinner?"

I am near-sighted, and my eyesight is getting worse, because I play too many computer games and watch too much TV. I really play computer games a lot. There are so many different games and I spend all my time in playing them. When I play computer games, I always forget about my other plans. I am a bit ashamed (害羞) of this habit(习惯). I also like watching television. Sometimes I turn on my TV even while I am doing my homework.. I usually sit one metre away from my TV and watch it for hours if my parents do not ask me to do something else. I know how bad my eyesight is when I am in a car. I look out of the window and see shops, but I can't see the signs clearly. I have to guess the shop names from from curves(弯曲物) and lines. I try my best not to wear glasses, because they change my appearance and make me look like a hen. I hate my eyes for making me wear glasses during school hours. I love my eyes at the same time because they let me see the beautiful world. Love your eyes and don't play too many computer games or watch too much TV. The world will be dark after you become near- sighted. | ||||||||
