Dear Jenny,
I’m very busy on Friday. At 8: 00 I have math. It is not fun. The teacher says it is useful, but I think it is difficult. Then at 9: 00 I have science. It is difficult but interesting. At 10: 00 I have history. After that I have P. E. at 11: 00. It’s easy and fun. Lunch is from 12: 00 to 1: 00, and after that we have Chinese. It is my favourite subject. Our Chinese teacher, Mr. Wang, is great fun. My classes finish at 1: 50, but after that I have an art lesson for two hours. It is really relaxing!

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap.
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly(蚊子) touches one of the hairs, the leaf close quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses(挤压) the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
How can that happen? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger plants don’t get the same idea!What kind of plant is the Venus flytrap?
| A．It is the plant that can be eaten as vegetables |
| B．It is the plant that can eat people |
| C．It is the plant that can eat meat. |
| D．It is the plant that is poisonous(有毒的) |
What are inside its leaves?
| A．some small leaves | B．some pages of books |
| C．some flowers | D．some hairs |
The Venus flytrap eats flies because__________.
| A．It grows in dry parts | B．It hates flies |
| C．It’ll be eaten by flies | D．It needs air and water |

Dear Wang Ying,
I really miss you. This term, we have a new headmaster(校长) and the school life is different. Now let me tell you something about it. Now, school begins at 8:45, half an hour later than (比……晚) before. Now I get up at 7:20 in the morning and go to school by bike at 8:00. There are three classes in the morning and in the afternoon, we have only two classes. School is over at 4:00. After that, we don’t have to do too much homework. We can do many activities in school clubs. You know, I like drawing so much, so I am in Art Club. I love the new school life.
Yours,
Zhang Jing
