A volunteer in the future
There are lots of volunteers around us now. They don't do it for money. They do it only for happiness or for others.
If I have a chance to join a Volunteer Club, I will try my best to help others. In my class, I am good at Maths and Science. I can help my classmates who are in trouble if I am free. In the primary school, I can help teach young students paint because I am good at drawing. And I am good at singing, so I can sing songs to cheer up the sick people in hospital. Also, I can help the old people in the old people's home. I can do the housework for them because I think the old people will be very tired if they do the housework by themselves.
Except(除了) these, I can do some other things. Not only I feel good about helping others, but also I do something useful. So I think I should study hard to improve my skills and I will help others more in the future.

Billy always loved blueberries. They were his favourite fruit. Today he was going to make juice with his uncle. His uncle likes to make juice out of everything. He made carrot juice, apple juice, vegetable juice, and more juices. But he had never made blueberry juice before!
First, Billy and his uncle went to a blueberry farm. They were each given a basket. They picked for an hour and got several pounds. It was hard work picking the little berries from the trees. Now Billy understood(明白)why they were expensive in the shops.
Next, they had to wash the fruit. Some of them still had leaves. Those had to be pulled off. Then the bad berries had to be thrown away. They washed the berries and made them air-dry.
After that, they pushed the blueberries through a strainer(过滤网).The strainer caught most of the seeds and skins, and only left a small glass of dark purple juice to them.
When they tasted the juice, it wasn't very sweet. Billy's uncle didn't want to add white sugar to the juice. It was better to use a naturally sweet juice, like apple juice, pear juice, or grape juice. They used grape juice as a sweetener(甜味剂), because grapes had a similar colour to the blueberries.
Finally, they could drink it. It was a lot of work to make juice, but it sure was refreshing!

I have tried many ways to be ill. I don’t wear a sweater when I should, and two days ago I walked in the rain without my shoes. But so far nothing has happened. Debbie once told me about a boy in her class who liked being away from school. He would rub (擦) the end of the thermometer (温度计) until it went up to 39℃. Then he’d put it in his mouth and his mother would think he was really ill.
This morning I tried doing that but it never went above 35℃ and I rubbed it for ten minutes. So I held the thermometer next to the light on my desk and it went up to 40℃. I thought I’d put it in my mouth and walk downstairs like that. Then my mother would take it out and she would be worried when she saw that I was rather ill.
The only trouble was I didn’t know the thermometer would be so hot. As soon as I put it into my mouth, it burnt my tongue! I spit the thermometer out. It fell on the floor but it didn’t break.
I will have to think of a better way to get my mother and father back together.
