shàng上gè个yuè月wǒ我men们xué学xiào校lái来le了yí一gè个xīn新tóng同xué学。

Last month a new classmate came to our school.

tā他jiào叫wáng王xiǎo小yǔ雨,cóng从běi北jīng京lái来。

His name is Wang Xiaoyu, and he's from Beijing.

tā他de的hàn汉yǔ语fēi非cháng常hǎo好,dàn但shì是tā他bù不rèn认shi识wǒ我men们。

His Chinese is excellent, but he didn't know any of us.

tā他dì第yī一cì次lái来jiào教shì室de的shí时hou候,méi没yǒu有shuō说huà话,jiù就zuò坐zài在wǒ我páng旁biān边。

The first time he came into the classroom he didn't say a word, just sat next to me.

wǒ我wèn问tā他:nǐ你jiào叫shén什me么míng名zi字?

I asked him: what's your name?

tā他xiào笑le了yī一xià下,shuō说le了tā他de的míng名zi字。

He smiled and told me his name.

kāi开shǐ始de的shí时hou候,tā他méi没yǒu有péng朋you友,měi每gè个zǎo早shàng上dōu都bù不gāo高xìng兴。

At first he had no friends, and he was unhappy every morning.

yīn因wèi为tā他shì是xīn新lái来de的,shén什me么dōu都bù不rèn认shi识。

Because he was new, and didn't know anything.

wǒ我hé和tā他yì一qǐ起xué学xí习,yì一qǐ起chī吃dōng东xi西。

We studied together and ate together.

wǒ我bāng帮zhù助tā他zhǎo找jiào教shì室,yě也bāng帮zhù助tā他rèn认shi识xīn新péng朋you友。

I helped him find the classroom, and helped him meet new friends.

yǒu有yī一cì次tā他shēng生bìng病le了,wǒ我sòng送tā他qù去yī医yuàn院。

Once he got sick, and I took him to the hospital.

yī医yuàn院lǐ里de的yī医shēng生shuō说,méi没yǒu有dà大wèn问tí题,chī吃yī一xiē些yào药jiù就hǎo好le了。

The doctor said there was nothing serious — some medicine and he'd be fine.

wǒ我zài在tā他páng旁biān边zuò坐le了sān三gè个xiǎo小shí时。

I sat beside him for three hours.

wǒ我men们jiù就shì是hǎo好péng朋you友le了。

After that we were good friends.

shàng上gè个xīng星qī期wǒ我men们xué学xiào校yǒu有yí一gè个kǎo考shì试。

Last week our school had an exam.

tā他xiě写dé得fēi非cháng常kuài快,yě也fēi非cháng常hǎo好。

He wrote it very fast, and very well.

tā他shuō说:xiè谢xie谢nǐ你bāng帮zhù助wǒ我。

He said: thank you for helping me.

wǒ我shuō说:bú不kè客qi气,wǒ我men们shì是tóng同xué学。

I said: you're welcome — we're classmates.

xiàn现zài在tā他yě也bāng帮zhù助xīn新lái来de的tóng同xué学le了。

Now he helps the new classmates too.
