中考英语作文范文：The Snoring Tree

　　My friends, this story is made up by me. Do you like it? Can you make one up?

　　Once upon a time there was a tree that snored. It was so loud that the whole world could hear it, even aliens from Mars! Everybody kept wondering, How long is this going to last? They made a plan. They said to the tree, How do you stay awake for spring, summer, and fall, and sleep in the winter?

　　That would be fine, said the tree, thats why trees shed their leaves and go to sleep in the winter. If you put your ears to the ground, youll be able to hear them snore.
