节目信息 A Family Reunion Lucy was very excited. She was going to visit her grandmother in the countryside for the weekend. She loved her grandmother’s house. It was big and cozy, with a beautiful garden and a friendly dog. Lucy also liked to see her relatives who lived nearby. She had a lot of cousins, aunts and uncles who always came to visit when she was there. Lucy packed her bag and waited for her father to pick her up. Her mother and brother were already in the car. They drove for two hours, listening to music and chatting. Lucy looked out of the window and saw the green fields and hills. She felt happy and relaxed. They arrived at the grandmother’s house and were greeted by a warm hug. Lucy ran inside and saw her sister, who had come from another city. She hugged her and they started to talk. They hadn’t seen each other for a long time. They went upstairs to share a room. Later, they had a big dinner with the whole family. Lucy enjoyed the food and the conversation. She laughed at her uncle’s jokes and listened to her aunt’s stories. She felt proud of her cousin, who had won a prize at school. She played with her nephew, who was only three years old. After dinner, they all sat in the living room and watched a movie. Lucy snuggled with her grandmother on the sofa and felt very happy. She loved her family and she was glad to spend time with them.
