大家好，我是Connie，今天我要跟大家说一件我们家的事儿。

我有一个很小很小的弟弟，他从小就很喜欢画画儿。

在他三岁的时候，有一天，他又在画画儿，我们的爸爸呢，在房间睡觉，我在看电视。过了一会儿，爸爸睡醒后从房间走了出来，我一看见爸爸就哈哈大笑，爸爸不知道我在笑什么，我就指了指他的衣服说"：爸爸，你的衣服上怎么会有太阳和小狗小猫啊？"

爸爸也觉得很奇怪，就脱下了衣服，一看，真的有很多小狗小猫。原来都是我弟弟画的。

爸爸非常生气，但是，他没有打弟弟，因为他也觉得很好笑。

Remembered before my elementary school first grade time, once teacher to lead us to go to the autumn outing. The place is a Pudong's park. Because ever had not gone to Pudong at that time, moreover is first time has ridden in a carriage the tunnel, therefore each people are very excited. I remembered that saw all the way is a farmland, but also has the country road. We thought the outside areas. Because at that time Pudong and Puxi compared, had the very big difference. Therefore, that autumn outing has made the very profound impression at least in ten years to me. But I live now in Pudong, has ridden in a carriage daily the tunnel, moreover lives the place was near to childhood autumn outing's that park, the farmland and the country road also did not exist. Sometimes therefore thinks that childhood's that kind was excited and is affected, the real feeling was very weak, but was also most real.

Lyrics:

学习雷锋好榜样, 忠于革命忠于党,
爱憎分明不忘本, 立场坚定斗志强。

学习雷锋好榜样, 艰苦朴素永不忘,
愿做革命的螺丝钉, 集体主义思想放光芒。

学习雷锋好榜样, 毛主席的教导记心上,
全心全意为人民, 共产主义品德多高尚。

学习雷锋好榜样, 毛泽东思想来武装,
保卫祖国握紧枪, 努力学习天天向上。
