Isaac was a high school student. Every morning, he went to school on the tube. The tube roared in the tunnel quickly. The first class that morning was music. He played a tune on the violin. The second one was English. The students gave English speeches in turn. And the teacher asked them to turn in two essays every month. In the afternoon, the students visited a museum first. They saw the first ship to use turbine to propel forward in the world. Then they had a tug of war. Isaac tucked his shirt into his trousers then tugged the rope all out. He tumbled several times but he had fun. In the evening, Isaac took a good bath in the tub then tried on a new shirt. He recollected last weekend. He and his father went to a store. Isaac tried out the TV set before buying. He found that the TV tube had broken. They chose another good one. The television was too heavy they took carring it home. They had delicious turkey that night. Isaac was stopped recollecting by the rest bell. He lay down on the bed. He turned in his favoritestation to listen to it. In order not to disturb his roommates, he turned down the radio. The news said a hurricane was coming and the sea was turbulent. But Isaac worried about another thing, that is, the tuition was rising every year. He wanted to do a part-time job to lighten his parents’ burden. He was a good boy in truth.

艾萨克是一名中学生。每天早晨他乘地铁去上学。地铁在隧道中呼啸飞驰。那天的第一堂课是音乐，他用小提琴演奏了一首曲子。第二堂课是英语。学生依次进行了英语演讲，老师要求他们每个月上缴两篇散文。下午学生们首先参观了博物馆。他们参加了世界上第一艘用涡轮机推进的轮船。然后他们进行了一场拔河比赛。艾萨克卷起衬衣塞进裤子。然后用尽全力猛拉绳子。他摔倒了几次但很开心。晚上，艾萨克在澡盆里好好洗了个澡，然后试穿了一件新衬衣。他回忆起上个周末。他和父亲去买一台新的电视机。在购买之前，艾萨克试验电视机的性能。他发现电视显象管坏了，他们挑了另一台好的。电视太重了，他两把它扛回家。那天晚上他们吃了可口的火鸡肉。休息的铃声打断了艾萨克的回忆，他躺到床上去休息，他收听他最爱的电台里说飓风就要来了，大海非常狂暴。但艾萨克担忧的是另一件事，即学费每年都在上涨，他想打工来减轻父母的负担。他的确是个好男孩。

A factory turned out ten thousand automobiles each year. Its turnover was quick. Its turnover was pretty high. A worker in this factory worked hard. His wife gave birth to twins. She was a typical housewife. Every night after supper, the family turned off the light then turned on the television. The husband always asked the wife to turn the TV up a little because he could not hear very clearly. On weekends, the couple took turns to look after the twins. When the twins were 8 years old, their parents decided to turn over the children to a tutor, It’s maybe a good idea to turn to a professional tutor. On the day the tutor turned up, the weather forecast said that the highest was 10 degrees, but it turned out to be 5 degrees. The tutor drove a car. She turned off the highway and ran towords the seshore. Typhoon always struck the villages there. Then she took the first turning on the left.
