The banana tree
Once upon a time,there was a single banana tree in the jungle.Two bunches of bananas were on the banana tree.There were three children from a village.They were watching the bananas grow.There were four monkeys from the jungle.They were watching the bananas grow.
The children looked at the bananas at five o’clock in the afternoon everyday.The monkeys looked at the bananas at six o’clock in the morning everyday.The three children and the four monkeys were very excited.Soon the bananas would be ready to eat.
All seven of them wanted to eat the bananas.
Brer Foxs Christmas
Christmas is the most important festival in the western world.It is on December 25th.Usually two weeks before,people begin to prepare lots of Christmas presents.People who are far away on business hurry to return their home for Christmas.
Last Christmas,my mother and I were invited by one of my mother' s friends to have Christmas with an American family.Entering the brilliant hall,we saw a beautiful Christmas tree decorated with colorful lights.In the middle of the hall stood a big table.On it were something delicious.How beautiful it was!We were impressed by these.We had a big meal.After dinner,the hosts told us many stories about Christmas.Every year more than 140 countries in the world have Christmas to celebrate the day Jesus was born.On that day children were the happiest of all because they could get presents from the Santa Claus with white beard.We enjoyed ourselves very much.
This Christmas was really unforgettable.Not only did I have a good time,but also I knew something about foreign culture.
