about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night.

and over again. That may be the dreamer worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find

Hello,boys and girls. My name is Li Jing. I am a girl student. I am thirteen years old. I think as students, we

should work hard at school on weekdays. But we also need to have a good rest to relax myself. So I always

study hard when I am at school, but on my day off I often do something else to relax myself.

I had a very relaxing day off. In the morning, I got up at seven o’clock. Then I went to run with my father. I

think we need to exercise every day. After all, it’s important to keep healthy. After runnin

g, I took a shower and

had breakfast. At nine o’clock, I went to the aquarium with my friends. We saw some sharks and seals there.

Sharks

are

very

scary

but

the

seals

are

cute.

We

also

saw

a

dolphin

show.

I

think

dolphins

are

very

clever

animals. In the gift shop, we bought many gifts. We had great fun there.

In the afternoon, my parents took me to see my grandparents. They live in the beautiful countryside. They

were

very

happy

to

see

me.

I

talked

with

my

grandparents

for

long

and

he

told

me

many

interesting

things

about him. My grandmother cooked lots of delicious food for us.
