As a human being, one can hardly do anything without a friend. Making friends is a very important part in our lives. Friends can give you a lot. First, if you have trouble in solving some problems, you can ask him for help. And you will feel comfortable and encouraged. Secondly, if you wish to do some sports, such as playing table tennis, chess, you could play with them and have a good time. Then you relax yourself. In short, we need friends. Some people think friends are people whom they can play with. In my opinion, a friend in need is a friend indeed. A true friend shares with you not only your happiness but also your trouble.

Sleep

During the day we work and play, at night we sleep. Our bodies rest while we sleep. In the morning we are ready to work and play again. While we are sleeping, our bodies grow most. When we are tired, we need more sleep. We can get our lessons and we will feel better, too, when we have enough rest. A nine-year-old child needs ten hours of sleep every night. Our bodies need a lot of air when we sleep. If we do not get enough fresh air, we’ll feel tired when we wake up. While in bed we must not cover our heads. If we do, our lungs will not get enough fresh air. If we open our windows at night, we can have lots of fresh air. Cool air is better than warm air. If boys and girls want to grow and be strong, they must get enough sleep.

Dear Mrs. Smith,                                        

I was a student of yours in Grade Six, and I hope you still remember me. I'm writing this letter because I want to let you know that the school year with you was important and special time. It made a big contribution to my life.
I know I was very quiet in your class, and you never said much to me. But you did something that made a big difference in my life. You see, all through my first years in schools, I hated to read. Books were just words that had very little to do with me, and I was bored by them. I'll never forget the first day of Grade Six when you took out a thick book and began to read the story to our class. Your voice seemed to change with the people in the story, and you drew pictures in my mind as you read aloud. Since that day, I couldn't wait until after lunch when you would read to the class. You read us all kinds of wonderful books.
   During the summer after my year in your class, I missed hearing the stories you would read. So one day I picked up a book and read it all on my own. I found out that I could make the words interesting, too. Now, I love to read! Thank you for opening the world of books for me.                                  Yours
                                                                                 Linda
