Last Tuesday was a good day. The sun was high in the sky and the sky was very blue. Tom said goodbye to his parents and then took a bus to school for an exam. The exam was important to him. His parents expected him to get a good grade and hoped that he would get a place at a top university. Suddenly a lorry (货运汽车) stopped in front of the bus. Although the bus driver tried his best to stop, the bus still went into the lorry. There was a terrible noise. Luckily no one was hurt in the accident. Tom got off the bus. He felt a little      . “What should I do if I can't get to the exam on time?” he said to himself. A policeman saw Tom and asked him whether he was OK. Tom told the policeman that he would take a very important exam at 9:00 a.m. and now it was already 8:40 a.m. The policeman picked up his phone and asked a police car to come at once. When it arrived, he asked the driver to take Tom to school as fast as he could. Tom arrived at school five minutes before the exam started. So Tom was able to take the exam on time.

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.

Reporter: Hello, everyone. This morning I'm talking to Fran Mason, a clown (小丑) doctor. Fran, what is a clown doctor?

Fran: Well, we aren't really doctors. We're clowns. But we pretend to be doctors. We go to children's hospitals and do all kinds of funny things to make the sick children laugh.

Reporter:  1.

Fran: I wear a doctor's white coat and I pretend to examine a little boy or girl, for example, but then I make funny faces. They love it!

Reporter:  2.

Fran: Oh, yes. But we don't give the children medicine. We think laughter is the best medicine. It's very important for them to laugh and enjoy themselves.

Reporter:  3.

Fran: Three years ago, and before I became a clown doctor, I was a teacher. You see, I really enjoy working with children but I wanted to do something a little different.

Reporter:  5.
