Late for School 上学迟到了
October 8th Wednesday Windy
I was fifteen minutes late for school this morning. I usually go to school by bike. But this morning there was something wrong with my bike. It didn't work on the way to school. I had to have it repaired. So I had to take a bus. It took me about twenty minutes to get to school. When I arrived at the school gate, it was 8:15. I was afraid when I entered the classroom, because Mr. Zhang is very strict with us. Luckily, he was not angry with me this time.

上学迟到了
10月8日 星期三 有风
今天早晨上学我迟到了15分钟。我通常骑车上学，可是今天早晨我的自行车出了毛病，在上学的路上它不转了。我不得不找人修车。因此我乘上了公共汽车。我用了20分钟才到了学校。当我到达校门口时，时间已经是8点15分了。当走进教师时我很害怕，因为张老师对我们很严格。幸好今天他没有对我发火。
My summer plan
July 10 2014
I am planning to spend my summer holiday on sports this year. Playing basketball is always my favourite, so some of my classmates and I will form a small team and play basketball together. Sometimes we may have a match against some other teams and I do enjoy the sense when we win the game.

我的周末日记
大家好，让我来给大家介绍下我是如何度过周末的吧。
周末我得做好多事，所以我的周末就显得尤为忙碌，所以我一般都在周六上午就把作业都做完。
到了下午，我跟我妈妈一起做家务，因为我是个好孩子，我也想给家里做点自己该做的事;周日早上，我跟父母去见外公外婆。下午，我们一起去公园，因为那有一场风筝展览会，并且我外公外婆也非常喜欢做风筝。
我想，我们可以在那看到很多漂亮的风筝，同时也可以买一些好看的风筝。
最后，我们一起去放风筝，相当给力!晚上，我们去吃大餐。由于外公外婆喜欢吃鱼，所以我们晚餐吃鱼。我外婆做的鱼非常香。晚饭后，我们一起看电视。我想我们会非常愉快。
这就是我的快乐周末，我非常喜欢周末，你的周末是如何度过呢?可以告诉我吗?
