School Girl (true story):
今天起早，妈妈就到田里去了，田野上不见一个人，只有一头猪在慢慢快跑。（老师批语，慢慢快跑是什么跑法？）
Early
this morning, mum went to the farm field
working where there was nobody in sight but a
pig slowly ran in high speed.
后座的那个讨厌的男生真可恶，老拿手在后面踢我。（老师批语：比较生动，但手脚不分）
The boy
sitting behind me is really nasty. He keeps
kicking me with his hands.
奶奶上次从城里回来，说在电视上看到许多人争一个球，打得火起，为什么不一人发一个？我也觉得很好笑，但奶奶是没文化也没见识，现在我们国家还穷，一人发一个太浪费了。（老师批语；你奶奶可以理解，你不可原谅）
When
grandma returned form the town, she mentioned
she saw on TV a group of men fighting hard
over a ball, and wondered why they couldn’t
get one ball each. I feel her comment is very
amusing, but grandma is an uneducated woman
and knows very little about the world. Our
country is still quite poor, and it would be
too costly to give everyone a ball.
