Tuesday, 1st September
I had mixed feelings today, nervous, worried, happy, excited… My heart went down when Miss Chan, our head teacher, said that Matthew and Beth, two students from England, would spend three months with us! I was worried that I had to speak English so much! But at the end of the school day, I was happier than I thought: the morning with them today was more enjoyable than I expected.
Today is the most unforgettable first day I have had! Matthew is fantastic! His English is clearer and easier to listen to than I thought. The other English student, Beth, is the most helpful girl I’ve ever met. There were lots of things to do on the first day. Beth offered to help Miss Chan put up all the notices. Of course, some of the credit (功劳) should also go to ME because I translated some of the notices for her. Miss Chan praised us!
We finished all the preparations 10 minutes earlier than expected, then Beth and I talked for a while, Matthew sang several English songs and did some stand-up comedy (单人喜剧表演) at the party. We all praised him. When the bell rang to end the first school day, none of us wanted to leave.
When I went back home, I had a little headache. I have probably spoken more English today than the whole of last year.
It was really a happy day! I hope our friendship can continue, even after they gone back to England!The writer felt ______ when he heard the news from Miss Chan.

When we talk about red packets, the most important question is “What are you going to do with it?” One thing you could do is to put your money in the bank.
Maybe you don’t know, some students in Hubei began to use the Xiaogui Dangjia bank card this year. This is a card for children. It is from China Minsheng Bank in Wuhan.
Wang Ming is a 14-year-old junior student in Wuhan. He said “All my pocket money has a place to go now. I can pay my own school fees (学费).”
Zhu Yu, a manager (经理) of Minsheng Bank, said that they knew lots of students who didn’t know how to use their money. So they wanted them to know how to use it carefully. Parents worry that children don’t know how to take care of the money by themselves. Shen qiangqiang’s mother like the card very much. Shen was asking his mother for a computer for a long time, but his mother didn’t buy it for him. She said, “We want him to use his card to save money for the computer.
