Ⅲ.听短文,选择正确的答案。短文读两遍

Yesterday afternoon, Grandma—that's my mother—lost her glasses.We were not surprised; she's 82, and she often forgets or loses things.So everyone in the family had to help her find them.

“They cost over 2,000 yuan,” she said.“We must find them!”

My son, James, said, “Grandma, aren't you wearing them?”

But she answered, “No.These are my old glasses.Look, these glasses are grey.My new glasses are purple.”

Grandma likes cooking so I looked all around the kitchen, but could not find them.Grandma looked for them in her bedroom, and James looked all around the living room, but no one could find the glasses anywhere.

About half an hour later, my husband Sam returned home.“Here are your glasses, Grandma,” he said.

“Oh, where were they?” she asked.“Did I leave them in the car?”

“No.You broke them on Friday, and you asked me to get them repaired.I've just been to the shop to get them,” he said.

Hello, everyone.I'd like to talk about my dream school.

My dream school is big.It has a swimming pool, a dancing room and a football field.The most important is that it has a greenhouse and a farm.

On weekdays, the school starts at 9:00 a.m.and finishes at 3:00 p.m.Besides Chinese, English and Maths, there are interesting lessons about beauty, cooking and Chinese chess.All these can make the students feel interested in learning.

At noon, the school can provide all kinds of food such as Japanese, Korean and Chinese food.So the students can have many choices for food and eat more happily.

As for the teachers, they are all excellent.And the students are polite and friendly.They learn from each other and help each other.They are like a big family.
