1.Joe Sanders拥有我们镇上最漂亮的花园.几乎每个人都参加每年举办的"最佳花园竞赛",而每次都是Joe Sanders获胜.Bill Frith的花园比Joe的大,他比Joe也更勤奋,种植的花卉和蔬菜也更多,但Joe的花园更富有情趣.他修筑了一条条整洁的小路,并在一个池塘上架了一座小木桥.我也喜欢花园,但我却不愿意辛勤劳动.每年的花园竞赛我也参加,但总因是镇上最劣的花园而获得一个小奖.

2.星期三的晚上,我们去了市政厅.那是一年的最后一天,一大群人聚集在市政厅的大钟下面.再过20分钟,大钟将敲响12下.15分钟过去了,而就在11点55分时,大钟停了.那根巨大的分针不动了.我们等啊等啊,可情况没有变化.突然有人喊道:"已经12点零2分了!那钟已经停了!"我看了一下我的手表,果真如此.那座大钟不愿意迎接新年.此时,大家已经笑了起来,同时唱起了歌.

3.我家有件古乐器,被称作古钢琴,是1681年德国造的.我们的这架钢琴存放在起居室里,我们家有这件乐器已经很久了,是我祖父在很多年以前买的.可它最近被一个客人弄坏了,因为她用它来弹奏爵士乐.她在击琴键时用力过猛,损坏了两根琴弦.我父亲大为吃惊,不许我们再动它.父亲的一个朋友正在修理这件乐器.

4.我正在一家饭馆吃饭,Tony Steele走了进来.Tony曾再一家律师事务所工作,而现在正在一家银行上班.他的薪水很高,但他却总是向朋友借钱,并且从来不还.Tony看见了我,就走过来和我坐到一张桌子牵.他从未向我借过钱.当他吃饭时,我提出向他借20英镑.令我惊奇的是,他立刻把钱给了我."我还从未向你借过钱,"Tony说道,"所以现在你可以替我付饭钱了!"
