Time seems to go faster when we are reading interesting books. 2 Our good friend Jason is leaving Beijing tomorrow. Jason is an exchange student who studied at our school for six months.

There is a football field behind my house and a swimming pool beside it. There is a kitchen and a home cinema on the ground floor. The kitchen is very clean.

Each room has a new computer and all the beds are comfortable. There are two large rooms on the second floor. My friends and I have parties there.

It is great fun. 5 Halloween is on October 31. People celebrate it in many ways. Children wear special costumes and masks at Halloween. Many children play a game called "trick or treat".
