Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I’m Roy, and this is my show.This is a television show for all families, and I know you’ll enjoy it.
Let’s start with a story.Once there was a proud pig on a farm.He thought he was the most important of all the animals on the farm.But it was not enough that he himself thought this:he had to be sure that other animals thought it, too.So he went up to a chicken and asked,“Who is the most important animal on the farm?”The chicken answered,“You are, Mr.Pig.”Then he asked a dog, and he got the same reply.
Next, he asked a cow.When the cow seemed uncertained of the right answer, the pig looked angry, and showed his teeth,“Oh, you are, of course, Mr.Pig.”said the cow.“Of course,”the pig said,“there is no doubt about it.”
At last the pig asked a big horse the same question.The horse lifted one foot, rolled the pig over and placed his foot on the pig’s head.“I think you know the answer now.”said the horse.

In England winter is not very cold and summer is not very hot.There is not a great difference between summer and winter.Do you know why?
England has a mild(温和) winter and a cool summer because it is an island eountry.In winter the sea is warmer than the land.The winds from the sea bring warm air to England.In summer the sea is cooler than the land.The winds from the sea bring cool air to England.
