My name is Tom. It’s my birthday on Friday. I am fourteen years old. I usually have a birthday party on my birthday, and this year, my birthday party is on Saturday afternoon. I always have a big birthday cake. Sometimes made of ice cream, with candy on top(上面). I usually get a lot of presents. My mother and father always give me new clothes to wear. Sometimes they give me a new pair of trainers or jeans. My brother usually gives me some CDs. My sister often gives me something to read, like magazines or a novel. My grandparents never give me CDs or new clothes. They often give me cinema tickets or money, but they always give me a box of chocolates to eat.

_________________________________________________________________________________. Sydney is in the east of Australia. It is a lively city. It’s famous for its Opera House and the Sydney Harbor Bridge. The weather is warm. The temperature is about 12 degrees in winter. And it is about 35 degrees in summer. It has beautiful beaches and many parks.
In the west of Sydney, there is a big park called the Blue Mountains. You can see many visitors in the park from different countries. It’s quite a popular park. The only way to see this park is by going through a bush (荒野小路). Then you can find some nice gravel (砂砾) roads. The roads can take you to the Blue Mountains. Of course, you will need to travel with food and water. It will take you some days to see a small part of the mountains, because there are many roads to get to the Blue Mountains
