Hello, I'm Logan. I live in the city1I'm a farmer. My parents and I live in an apartment with a balcony(阳台). On the balcony, we have a vegetable garden. It's like a little farm!
My father and I made the garden 2. We got a lot of pots and filled them with soil. Then we planted seeds in the soil. My job is to take care 3 the plants. I water them with a 4and l pull out the seeds. It is not hard work.
The balcony is a good place to grow vegetables. It's sunny, but not too hot and not too windy. We grow cabbages, green beans, cucumbers and tomatoes in our garden.
I like 5vegetables. It is healthy and fun, and we get great vegetables. Look at these beautiful tomatoes!

A poor fisherman caught a beautiful golden fish. The golden fish said, "Set me free. I can make all your wishes come true!" The fisherman set the golden fish free. The fisherman told his wife about the golden fish. His wife said, "We need a new bowl. "So the fisherman went back to the sea.
The golden fish came and asked, "How can l help you?"
"We want a new bowl," said the fisherman.
"Happy to help," said the golden fish.
The fisherman went home and found his wife with a new bowl. His wife asked for a big house and a bag of gold in the next two days. But she was still not happy. On the fourth day, she said, "I want to be the queen of the sea. Go and tell the golden fish!" The fisherman told the golden fish about his wife's wish. But the golden fish said nothing. It swam back to the sea. Then the fisherman went back home. He found his wife at their old house, with nothing but an old bowl.
Slower Days in the Past
Remember young days in the past.
People were sincere and honest.
They honored what they said.
Early morning in the railway station.
Long, dark and empty was the street.
The soybean milk diner(小餐馆) was steaming(冒出蒸气) with heat.
Days were slower in the past.
Carriage(马车), horse, and mail did not reach fast.
You need your lifetime to just love the person who is right.
The lock was fine in the past.
The key was exquisite and fit.
You lock and he will get it.
Today, around half of the world's population lives in cities. But when you grow up, cities may become more crowded(拥挤的). By 2050, 68 percent of the world's population may live there. What might your life look like in the future?
Supersonic airplanes(超音速飞机)
Supersonic airplanes came out in the 1960s. But they were too noisy to use. Now, US company Boom will make better airplanes of this kind. They fly higher than usual airplanes. This makes the flight more stable. Also, supersonic airplanes are quieter and faster. Now it takes you more than 11 hours to fly from Beijing to Seattle. With a supersonic airplane, it will be just 5 hours!
Flying taxis and buses
Many companies are working on flying cars. Japan's SkyDrive is one of them. Its car has only two seats for a pilot and a passenger. It runs on electricity and flies about 10 kilometers per charge. It helps to cut traffic jam(交通堵塞).
Underwater highways
Besides "flying" in the air, we might also move around underwater. These highways are under water tubes. People sit in pods(舱). They can travel between the UK and countries in Northern Europe in less than an hour. Usually, it takes around two hours.
