It is Mrs. Brown's birthday. Mr. and Mrs. Brown are at their favorite Chinese restaurant, China Jade. They rarely go out to eat. It is expensive to eat out. They only eat out on special days. Mrs. Brown is forty years old today, so it is a very special day.

China Jade is a small restaurant. However, it is quite clean and beautiful. There are about ten tables in the restaurant. On each table, there is a red flower. The Browns came here for the first time three years ago. They came to celebrate their friend Robert's birthday. They fell in love with this small restaurant at that time.

Yan is the headwaiter (侍者领班) here. He works very hard and he enjoys his job. He likes telling jokes and many customers (顾客) like him. He knows that it is Mrs. Brown's birthday and he wants the dinner to be very special. He brings Mr. and Mrs. Brown a menu. Then he helps them order. They order vegetable soup for their first course (菜肴). For their main course, they order Peking duck. After the main course, they order a fruit salad. Yan brings them their food. They eat slowly and happily, listening to the beautiful music.

The evening is so wonderful. It is 11:00 p.m. when the Browns get home. Mrs. Brown puts her red flower from China Jade in a vase (花瓶). She is very happy. She thinks that it is not so bad to be forty years old!

It was a nice winter day. After dinner, Ms. Lee checked (查看) her e-mails as usual. One e-mail caught her eye. It was from Mary, a girl who sat at the back of the classroom. She answered questions a lot in class.

Ms. Lee,

I love you and your classes. They are always interesting and full of surprises. Wish you a good holiday! Well, Steve, Ella and I want to improve our English during the holidays. We've no idea what to do. Any good advice?

Stopping here, Ms. Lee began to think carefully. “Steve spends lots of time remembering words, but always forgets most of them quickly! Ella didn't do well in the final exam. She has to go over her lessons a lot. Mary will go to a writing competition. She needs to read more and improve her writing in a short time.”

Just then, her phone rang. It was a message from her best friend, an English teacher in another middle school. Her friend suggested a trip to Hong Kong. Ms. Lee told her she was available, but she didn't feel like going because she still had no idea how to help her students. Her friend laughed and soon sent her a picture with a QR code (二维码) in it. “It's all you want,” her friend said. Ms. Lee scanned (扫描) the code and found it was an English homework project for the coming winter holidays from English Weekly. As she read it, there appeared a big smile on her face.
