We live on the Earth. It’s our home. But how much do you know about it?
The Earth is like a huge ball. Like the other seven planets, the Earth is running around the Sun. It’s the third nearest planet to the Sun. It takes the Earth about 365 days to run around the Sun. At the same time, the Earth is going around itself. If you are in space, you can see lots of white clouds over the surface of the Earth. Through the clouds, you can see the blue color of the oceans and the brown color of the land. About 70% of the Earth is covered with water.
Why do we have day and night? When the half of the Earth is facing the Sun, it’s daytime. As the Earth turns and this half is away from the Sun, night is coming. And it’s daytime for the other half.

Hello! I’m Jason. On Monday, I usually wake up late and have no time to have breakfast. I can’t find my books or my school cap. At last, I find my books and my school cap in the bathroom. I have to wait for a bus and I am nearly late for school.
The first lesson on Monday morning is Maths. I like it because I’m good at Maths.
The next lesson is French. I like French. It’s nice to be able to talk with somebody in another language.
At last, it is eleven o’clock — time for break. After having a break, we have two Latin lessons. There are a lot of boys in our class who don’t like Latin. I don’t like it, either.
At half past twelve, it is time for lunch — a meat pie, potatoes or cabbage and a glass of juice or milk. Then I go to the playground with my friends, and we play football there.
After lunch, we have a History lesson. The History teacher tells us many interesting things.
After school, my friends and I usually go for a walk. I come home very late, and my mother is very angry.
