4．Dear Jill,
　　How about your study?It's Sunday today. I'm writing a letter to you. I'm going to tell you about things in Beijing.
　　Beijing is different from London. In our country, we drive on the left side of the road, but here people drive on the right side. Most people go to work by bus or by bike. The rush hours (高峰时间) are from seven to nine in the morning and from five to seven in the afternoon . People in China work around eight hours a day, five days a week. They usually begin to work at eight in the morning, and rest on Saturday and Sunday. I have Chinese classes every morning from Monday to Friday. The students in our class are from many countries. We're all working hard and friendly. The Chinese students are ready to help with our Chinese. We also help them a lot with their English. We're getting along very well.
　　That's all for today. Please write to me soon.
Yours,
Tina

5．　　I'm Peter from No . 2 Middle School. I usually ride my bike home. But I lost my bike this morning, so I take a bus home. On the bus, I find a seat near a girl. I sit down and start to read my storybook. After two stops, an old grandma gets on. Many people are on the bus, so she has no seat. I want to read my interesting book, so I don't give my seat to the grandma. "Please take my seat, Grandma!" the girl next to me says. At that time, I find the girl is only about seven years old and she takes a big schoolbag. The grandma also sees this. "No, thank you. You're really a good girl!" she says. My face is red. Then I say, "Here is a seat for you, Grandma." The grandma is very happy. She thanks me and takes my seat. At that time, I find that helping others is really a happy thing!

6．　　We all know the giraffes are the tallest living animal on land. Do you want to learn more about them? Let me tell you.
　　Giraffes live in Africa. They have very long necks. A giraffe can be more than 5 meters tall.
　　A giraffe has four long and thin legs. The front legs are longer than the back legs. It can run up to 70 kilometers per hour. A giraffe is famous for its long neck. It can reach the leaves at the top of the trees. A giraffe can live 20 — 25 years in the wild, and often longer at zoos. An adult (成年的) giraffe eats up to 63 kilograms of food each day. A giraffe spends most of a day eating and it gets just a few leaves once. It eats leaves on the tall trees, tall bushes and grass. But its favorite food is the leaves on the acacia trees (金合欢树). Acacia leaves contain a lot of water, so a giraffe can eat for a long time without drinking.
