L141 Last week, my four-year-old daughter, Sally, was invited to a children's party I decided to take her by train
Sally was very excited because she had never travelled on a train before
She sat near the window and asked questions about everything she saw
Suddenly, a middle-age lady got on the train and sat opposite Sally
'Hello, little girl,' she said
Sally did not answer, but looked at her curiously The lady was dressed in a blue coat and a large, funny hat
After the train had left the station, the lady opened her handbag and took out her powder compact

She then began to make up her face 'Why are you doing that?' Sally asked
'To make myself beautiful,' the lady answered She put away her compact and smiled kindly 'But you are still ugly,' Sally said
Sally was amused, but I was very embarrassed! L143 I live in a very old town which is surrounded by beautiful woods It is a famous beauty spot
On Sundays, hundreds of people come from the city to see our town and to walk through the woods
Visitors have been asked to keep the woods clean and tidy
Litter baskets have been placed under the trees,
but people still throw their rubbish everywhere
Last Wednesday, I went for a walk in the woods What I saw made me very sad
I counted seven old cars and three old refrigerators
The little baskets were empty
and the ground was covered with pieces of paper, cigarette ends, old tyres, empty bottles and rusty tins
Among the rubbish, I found a sign which said, 'Anyone who leaves litter in these woods will be prosecuted!'
