[00:00.00]Unit 3 I made it myself
[00:05.20]A Let's read
[00:09.27]There was an art and craft competition at the children's school last week
[00:16.64]There were just two simple rules for the competition.
[00:22.20]The children had to do everything themselves.
[00:27.56]They could not have any help from an adult
[00:32.10]And they could not spend more than ten yuan on materials.
[00:37.77]This was to prevent rich children from winning all the prizes Peter
[00:43.94]Peter and Sue both entered the competition.
[00:48.69]Peter made a model train out of matchsticks
[00:53.66]And Sue painted a picture of the Shenzhen Reservoir
[00:58.70]When they took their entries to the Art & Craft Room,
[01:03.76]The teacher asked them both the same question."
[01:08.02]Did you make thisyourself?" Peter nswered, "Yes.
[01:14.68]I made my train myself and Sue painted her picture herself."
[01:21.35]Then she asked,"How much did you spend on materials?"
[01:27.69]They both said,"Less than ten yuan. "
[01:32.87]On their way back from the Art & Craft Room,
[01:37.62]They met Ken in the corridor.
[01:41.67]He was carrying a big model of an airport.
[01:46.74]"We made our entries ourselves," Sue said."
[01:52.20]It's one of the rules.
[01:55.64] You can't enter that.
[01:59.43] You didn't make that yourself. Someone helped you."
[02:03.38]Someone helped you."
[02:06.75]"No,"Ken said."
[02:10.51]I made every piece of it myself.
[02:14.87]I worked on it over the weekend."
[02:19.23]"I don't believe you,"Peter said."
[02:23.49]You're telling lies again.
[02:26.96]I'm going to ask Anne.
[02:30.80]They found Anne in the playground and asked her about Ken's model.
[02:37.28]"It's true,"she said."
[02:41.04]He made it all himself I watched him.
[02:46.32]He worked really hard on that model."
[02:50.97]"Ken can do something then,"Peter said.
[02:56.22]"Oh, yes," Anne said."
[03:00.90]He's really a very clever little boy.
[03:05.16] If he wants to do something, he can do it well.
[03:10.41]Unfortunately,he doesn't often want to do anything!"
[03:16.15]"You mean'fortunately'," Sue said. "
[03:21.72]We don't want him to win every competition!"

[04:48.24]Peter had a surprise yesterday.
[04:53.09]He received a letter from Australia.
[04:57.82]29 Queen Street,Sydney,N.S.W. 2000.
[05:06.16]1st December, 1993 Dear Peter,
[05:12.71]We have never met,
[05:15.98]But Miss Pan, your English teacher,
[05:20.63]Gave me your name and address.
[05:24.70]Miss Pan knows my sister.
[05:28.78]You wanted a pen-friend here and she gave me your address.
[05:34.84]I hope you don't mind.
[05:38.08]I have wanted a pen-friend in China for a long time.
[05:43.43]I am Chinese like you,but I was born in Australia.
[05:49.07]My father came to Australia fifteen years ago,
[05:54.43]But he has lived in Sydney only since 1986.
[06:00.20]He came here to start a new business.
[06:04.33]He usually goes back to China once a year.
[06:09.16]We have lived in Sydney for seven years and like it very much.
[06:15.51]The weather is good in Australia.
[06:19.35]Everything is very clean and green.
[06:23.92]There is so much space in Australia.
[06:28.18]Most people live in houses with their own gardens.
[06:33.64]Nearly everyone has a car and some families have two.
[06:39.60]My mother takes me to school every morning by car and collects me every afternoon
[06:47.35]A lot of parents do the same.
[06:51.01]I visited Shenzhen four years ago.
[06:55.56]Is it still crowded and busy?
[06:59.53]There are quite a lot of Chinese people in Australia,
[07:04.99]And there are hundreds of Chinese restaurants.
[07:09.84]A lot of Australians do not want to cook their own meals,
[07:15.49]So they buy "takeaways" from the nearest Chinese restaurant
[07:21.44]Or from one of the many fast food places,
[07:26.41]Like McDonald's Please tell me something about yourself.
[07:32.78]How long have you been at your school?
[07:36.44]When did you enter Miss Pan's class?
[07:40.88]What is your school like?
[07:44.22]Hope to hear from you soon.
[07:47.67]Yours sincerely,Andrew Zhou
