George and Margaret Glenn and their children live at 140, Davis Street, across the street from a small park. Their house is just off the main road. George usually goes to work by bus, but sometimes he goes in his car. The children usually go to school by bus.
The Glenns' house is almost hidden among the trees. It has small bushes (灌木)planted around it. There is a fence between it and the house next door. It is a two-storey house, with the living room, dinning room and kitchen on the first floor, and the bedrooms and bathroom on the second floor.
The Glenn spent a lot of time at home.Right now they are at dinner. Conversation (谈话) at the Glenns' house is usually lively at mealtime. The children are discussing trips they would like to take.
Susan, who has never been on a plane, says," I'd like to take a plane to California. " Henry, who is older, thinks it would be fun to be on a ship, heading for adventure (冒险) in Africa. Teddy, the youngest child, says, "I want to go around the world on a train." His elder brother and sister are still trying to explain to him why this is not possible when their mother says, "Children, you've spent too much time at the table. Henry and Susan, go and do your homework. Teddy, it's time you were in bed. "
Soon there is silence throughout the house. Teddy is in bed, Susan and Henry are in their rooms studying, and Mr. And Mrs. Glenns are in their living room,where George is sitting in his favourite chair, reading the paper and Margaret is sitting on the sofa, doing some-sewing.
