    It has been 2 months since the fifth season ofWhere Are We Going, Dad?was shown. I like this show so much that I almost have never missed it.

    In this season, there are 5 pairs of father and kids, one of which is formed temporarily（临时地）. All the six kids (Max, Neinei, Xiao Shanzhu, Xiao Paofu, En Heng and Jasper) are very cute and talented, but Jasper is my favorite kid.

    Through different kinds of games between dads and kids, the TV program shows us the different ways of family education（教育）. This might help other parents to educate their own children. But for me, the most important is thatcelebritiesjoin in this show. Many celebrities, like the 5 star fathers in the show, are usually very busy so they don't have much time to play and talk with their children when they are growing.

    I think it was same with many other families. And this also makes me think of myself. Because of my study, I had little time with my parents. What we talk most is my grades. And many of my classmates feel really far from their parents. As a result, I hope parents can spend more time with their children. At the same time, as students, we should share our school life with our parents.

Jim was（饿的）when he got home, so he had a hamburger first.

When I am sad, my friend Annie always tells me funny（笑话）.

Please open the window and let the（新鲜的）air come in, Paul.

My grandfather looks very healthy because he（锻炼）every day.

Today students can get a lot of useful（信息）from the internet.

Jim likes the Miller's because he can buy clothes（便宜地）there.

I'm sorry to hear that a terrible fire（发生）in my town yesterday.

Helen decided to go to school（虽然）she didn't feel well.

Jean thinks that a good friend is sometimes like a（镜子）.

The Smiths（打算）to visit the Great Wall when they were in China.

    Trying to stay healthy seems to be a difficult thing for us. To have  healthy lifestyle, there is no (good) way than to encourage the whole family to have a healthy lifestyle.

    When you go shopping, only buy healthy food. Buy vegetables and fruit rather than junk food like chips. Try different kinds of foods and try (eat) more at home.

    Don't think food as some kinds of entertainment（娱乐）. We may often meet our friends for lunch. In fact, there are many other things you can do with friends. How about  (meet) friends for a football game rather than meeting for lunch? You can still eat, the activity doesn't have to focus（集中）on food. The food is less important than the fun activity.

    Looking after your health should not be boring. (start) now.
