My grandma

       My grandma was a short woman with grey hair. She was always cheerful. She was a very good cook. Her dishes were probably the best in the world! I will never forget the taste, and the smell as well. Grandma took care of my family. She was really kind and patient. She died two years ago and I miss her very much.

p.12 More practice

                              Mother's  Day

  Mums do a lot of hard work. They cook and clean for us.
They also encourage us and give us support.
Mother’s Day is the time for us to say “Thank you” to our mums.
In most countries, people celebrate Mother’s Day on the second Sunday in May every year.
On this day, people like to buy flowers and make special Mother’s Day cards for their mums.
Mother’s Day is not only about gifts.
We can help our mums do the housework.
We can take them to the park or the cimema.
Sometimes a simple hug or saying “I love you, Mum” is the perfect gift for our mums.
Mother’s Day is about love. If you love your mum, why not plan a special Mother’s Day for her?

母亲们做着许多辛苦的工作。她们为我们做饭和搞卫生。她们还鼓励给我们支持。母亲节正是我们向妈妈说声“谢谢您”的时机。在大多数国家，人们在每年五月份的第二个星期日庆祝母亲节。
在这一天，人们喜欢为他们的母亲买鲜花、制作特别的母亲节贺卡。母亲节不仅仅跟礼物有关。我们可以帮助我们的妈妈做家务。我们可以带她们去公园或去电影院。有的时候，一个简单的拥抱或说句“我爱你，妈妈”就是送给我们母亲的最完美的礼物。
母亲节是关于爱的节日。如果你爱你的妈妈，为什么不为她计划一个特别的母亲节呢？
