Have you ever had a travel on the train that was named after the letter D?

Named after the letter D, the new trains run at a speed of 200 to 250 kilometers an hour. 1. For example, it used to take 12 hours to travel from Shanghai to Beijing. 2. The most interesting part of the trains is the revolving (旋转的) seats. People can adjust(调整) their seats as they like, so that it is easy for them to talk with others around them face to face.

However, many people still won’t choose D-type trains for some reasons. 3. For example, a hard seat ticket from Beijing to Tianjin is only ¥90 for T-type trains. But on the new trains, all the seats are soft. 4. On the other hand, the new trains stop at some stations for a very short time. 5.

A. For example, D31 stops at Tianjin only for one minute.

If the traffic lights are green, the traffic can go, people on foot mustn’t cross.

When people go to or come from work in the morning and evening, the streets are very busy. Traffic is the most dangerous then, especially for the children.

When you go by bus in Hong Kong, you have to be careful, too. You must always remember the traffic moves on the left. So you must be careful. Have a look first, or you will go the wrong way.

Long ago, a wolf called Howler lived in a valley where lots of fruit trees grew. He often tried to climb up the trees to eat the fruit, but couldn't reach.

In the valley, an old man named Martin also had a few fruit trees that he looked after very well. But as he was getting older, he noticed that he didn’t have the strength to pick the fruit.

Martin had the most beautiful fruit trees in the valley, which was why Howler had his eye on them. One day he decided to steal the fruit and started jumping up and down the tree.

Martin looked out of the window and realized that the wolf was trying to steal fruit from his beautiful trees. Howler jumped and jumped, but he couldn’t reach even the lowest branches of such a big tree.

Seeing this, Martin had a great idea: he offered Howler a ladder to climb up, but in return the wolf would have to give him half of the fruit. Howler accepted the deal and began to collect the fruit. For the whole morning, he went up and down the ladder filling his basket with the fruit.

Howler soon realized that he could eat all the fruit if he didn’t give Martin some. He thought up a new and secret plan. Martin, on the other hand, trusted Howler and even began to think they would be friends forever.

But the wolf stole the ladder and went off to other trees in the area for more fruit.

Realizing that the ladder was missing, Martin went looking for it. Martin felt very disappointed at the trick and no longer trusted Howler. Though he wasn’t angry with the wolf and they became friends again, he never made any more deals with him.

At last, Howler learned that he shouldn’t trick people and he should keep promises. He also learned that if he had been honest and not greedy, he would still have been able to enjoy more delicious fruit.
