I enjoy short holiday very much. It can bring me a lot of happiness.

Last Sunday,6 March,2013,I went on a trip to East Zoo with my mother. We had a great time there.

We didn't leave until 10 o'clock on Sunday morning because I had my piano lesson. It was around noon when we finally got to the park by bicycle. We saw lots of animals from different places. Among them,I liked a lovely kangaroo best. My mother who teaches geography at school told me a lot about kangaroos, "There are forty-seven kinds of kangaroos in the world. Most of them live in Aus?tralia. Kangaroos have very long,strong back legs used for jumping. They also have long,strong tails used for resting on. They only eat fruit and grass. Kangaroos can run at fifty kilometres an hour. The biggest kangaroos stand more than two metres tall.” Later,we also saw one panda,two tigers and some other animals.

I learned much knowledge about animals from this short holiday.

 The summer vacation is over. Time always flies fast. During the vacation,the weather was hot and I couldn't do much work,but I lived happily.

Because it was hotter in the afternoon,I did my homework in the morning. I got up at 6:30 am and took a walk in the garden for half an hour.

After breakfast,I read English and Chinese and did some maths exercises. It took me three hours or more to finish my homework. I worked quite hard and made good progress.

I spent the afternoon outside. I went to swim and it was fun. I came home at about five or six o'clock. Sometimes a friend of mine would come to see me ? and we would spend half an hour listening to music.

In this way I spent my vacation happily. I not only studied but also became a good swimmer. Now I'm in good health and in high spirits.
