Why do we learn English? Because many people use English in many countries. It will be easy to understand them if (如果) we can use English too. But it is not easy to learn English well. There are so many words. It is easy to make mistakes with them. One day, Amy asked Lingling to bring some caps, but Lingling brought some cups. Everyone laughed when they put on the cups because they had to (不得不) play baseball with small cups on their heads.
It was very hot and dry in summer. The sun was shining all day. A crow (乌鸦) was very thirsty. It saw a little water in a jar (罐子). The mouth of the jar was too small. The crow's mouth was too big. So it couldn't get the water. The crow thought, "How can I get the water?" Suddenly it had a good idea. It collected small stones and dropped them into the jar. The water in the jar rose (上升) and rose and the crow could drink the water. It was very happy.
