Suddenly I ran to my mother and said: “Tony fell from the open window!” She was very worried and ran out of the kitchen. Then I said: “Don’t worry, I’m just joking.” My mother shouted at me, “If you do it again, I’ll hit you.”
Another day I went swimming with my friends in the sea. I wanted to play a joke on them. In the beginning I swam fast and I called out “Help!”. All my friends came to help me. However, they found that I was joking. But half an hour later I wasn’t joking. I was so fast, soon I got tired and couldn’t swim on in water. I tried my best to call my friends for help, but this time nobody came to help me.

My best friend
Simon is one of my best friends, (I met him five years ago)
He is the tallest boy in our class. He has dark brown hair. I like his round face and small nose. He wears small round glasses, (they make him look smart.)
Simon is very friendly. He always has a smile on his face. When I feel bored , I always go to him, because he has a good sense of humour, he often tells me funny jokes. He is a true friend, he can keep a secret, so I can tell him everything. Simon is also an honest boy, he never tells lies.
He wants to be an artist, when he grows up. I think he will make an excellent artist.
