“Mom, you won’t believe what Anna’s grandfather bought her for her birthday!” shouted Michelle.
“What?” asked Mom.
“A horse,” said Michelle. “Can I have one for my birthday?” “No, Honey! I’m sorry but we don’t have enough money,” said Mom.
Michelle walked to her room. The phone rang (响起铃声), and Michelle answered. “Will you get one for your birthday?” asked Anna. “We can ride them together.” “No,” said Michelle. “Mom said we don’t have enough money.” “Oh. Er... I have to feed Sir Charles. See you tomorrow,” said Anna.
“Maybe I can help Anna feed Sir Charles,” thought Michelle. She picked up the phone, but her mom was on the phone.
“That would be wonderful. I think she’ll enjoy the riding lessons,” said Mom. Michelle even didn’t hear her mom walk in the room. “Honey, I want to talk to you,” said Mom.
Michelle put the phone down. “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop. I was going to call Anna,” said Michelle.
“So you heard about the riding lessons?” asked Mom. “Yes,” said Michelle.
“I don’t have enough money to buy a horse, but I thought you’d like to learn to ride it. Mrs. Mayberry gives lessons every Saturday. She said you and Anna could be in the same class. I know it’s not the same as having your own horse, but ...” said Mom. “It’s better,” said Michelle. “Why?” asked Mom.
“Anna has to feed Sir Charles every day. It takes lots of time,” said Michelle. “So you’re satisfied?” asked Mom.
“Of course. It’s the best birthday gift ever,” said Michelle. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

Dear Tommy,
I’m in Paris now! Mom, Sally and I came here to visit my uncle. We are having a wonderful time. Dad didn’t come because his company (公司) sent him to work in Japan last month. He will have to stay there until November.
For Sally and me, it’s our first time to come to France. We are so excited! Last week Mom went to different shows alone. She used to study in Paris, so she knows the city well. Sally and I visited many interesting places with Aunt Susan. Although we can’t speak French, it’s OK. Aunt Susan and Uncle Tyler can speak both French and English.
Yesterday afternoon, Mom, Sally and Aunt Susan stayed home cooking dinner. Uncle Tyler took me fishing. We drove for an hour and finally arrived at his favorite lake. First, we walked around the lake looking for a good place to fish. Uncle Tyler said we should fish from the top of a large rock.
I was so interested in catching a fish that when I threw my fishing line and hook (鱼钩) out, the rod (鱼竿) went with them! Uncle Tyler got my rod out of the lake. Then he said that next time, I should wait until he put bait (鱼饵) on the hook.
We fished for two hours and my uncle caught four fish. He is a fantastic fisherman. The only thing I caught was a cold. I can’t wait to go again soon, so I can become a great fisherman like him.
Yours,
Frank
