00:05.20]A  Let's read
[00:09.27]There was¹ an art and craft² competition³ at the children's school last week
[00:16.64]There were just two simple⁴ rules for the competition.
[00:22.20]The children had⁵ to do everything themselves⁶.
[00:27.56]They could⁷ not have any help from an adult
[00:32.10]And they could not spend more than ten yuan on materials⁸.
[00:37.77]This was to prevent⁹ rich children from winning¹⁰ all the prizes¹¹ Peter
[00:43.94]Peter and Sue¹² both entered¹⁴ the competition.
[00:48.69]Peter made¹⁵ a model train out of matchsticks
[00:53.66]And Sue painted a picture of the Shenzhen Reservoir
[00:58.70]When they took¹⁶ their entries¹⁷ to the Art & Craft Room,
[01:03.76]The teacher asked them both the same question."
[01:08.02]Did¹⁸ you make thisyourself?" Peter nswered, "Yes.
[01:14.68]I made my train myself²⁰ and Sue painted her picture herself²¹."
[01:21.35]Then she asked,"How much did you spend on materials?"
[01:27.69]They both said²²,"Less than ten yuan. "
[01:32.87]On their way back from the Art & Craft Room,
[01:37.62]They met Ken²³ in the corridor²⁴.
[01:41.67]He was carrying a big model of an airport.
[01:46.74]"We made our entries ourselves," Sue said."
[01:52.20]It's one of the rules.
[01:55.64] You can't enter¹³ that.
[01:59.43]  You didn't make that yourself¹⁹. Someone²⁵ helped you."
[02:03.38]Someone helped you."
[02:06.75]"No,"Ken said."
[02:10.51]I made every piece of it myself.
[02:14.87]I worked on it over the weekend."
[02:19.23]"I don't believe²⁶ you,"Peter said."
[02:23.49]You're telling lies²⁷ again.
[02:26.96]I'm going²⁸ to ask Anne.
[02:30.80]They found²⁹ Anne in the playground and asked her about Ken's model.
[02:37.28]"It's true,"she said."
[02:41.04]He made it all himself³⁰ I watched him.
[02:46.32]He worked really hard on that model."
[02:50.97]"Ken can do something then,"Peter said.
[02:56.22]"Oh, yes," Anne said."
[03:00.90]He's really a very clever little boy.
[03:05.16] If he wants to do something, he can do it well.
[03:10.41]Unfortunately,he doesn't often want to do anything!"
[03:16.15]"You mean'fortunately'," Sue said. "
[03:21.72]We don't want him to win every competition!"
