周末的一天
今天是周末。我不用上班，也不用上学，有很多自己的时间，所以我很高兴。
上午，我去了商店，去买了东西。我买了很多水果，有的水瓜，还有的香蕉。我还给同事买了一件礼物，因为下周五是他的三十岁生日。
中午，我在商店旁边的饭馆吃了一顿饭。我认识那里的服务员，他们的服务很好，菜也很好吃。
吃了饭我走路回家。从饭馆到家不远，我走路走了十分钟。
下午我去了运动场跑了步，这是我第一次去了那个运动场，那儿的人很多。我跑步跑了一小时，很累。跑了步，我回家，洗了热水澡，觉得特别舒服。
晚上我接了一个电话，是妈妈给我打电话的。她住在法国，我住在中国，我一年没回去了。妈妈说她很想我，我听了很想哭了，但是她下个月会来中国看我。
这是他第一次来中国，打算这里旅游两个星期。我要让她看看我的学校，公司，介绍介绍我朋友，同学和同事，希望她会喜欢这里。
