Question

Never a dull moment

by Tony Bradman

(1)If you like to keep lively，

If you hate being bored，

Just come down to our house

And knock on the door．

(2)It’s the noisiest house

In the whole of our town，

There're doors always slamming(砰地关上)

And things falling down．

(3)My dad keeps shouting，

And my mum，who breaks things．

The baby will bite you，

And our dog runs rings．

(4)My sister cries

And my brother roars(咆哮)．

And a grandpa is stone deaf，

(He always slams doors．)

(5)So come down to our house，

You don’t need the address，

You will hear it ten miles away

And the outside’s a mess．

(6)You won’t mind the racket(嘻杂声)．

You'll just love the din(吵闹声)--

For there is never a dull moment

In the house we live in!
