We"ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don"t move at all.
They are in their shells-sleeping.
Hot sun will dry out a snail"s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell.
A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long
as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.
In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry,
the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense of smell is
very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.
A snail"s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very
small, and you can"t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones. |

Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work? Or when your best friend
does not wait for you after school?
If you do, you need to take control (控制) of your feelings and stop getting angry so easily. Getting angry
with people can cause you to lose friends.
Gary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written "My Feelings Are Just Like Wild Animals" to
help you control your feelings. It tells teens how to stay cool when bad things happen to them.
The book says that getting angry only makes problems worse. It can never make them better. Getting
angry is not a natural (天然的) way to act, the book says. It is just a bad habit (习惯), like smoking (抽烟).
The book says you can control your anger (生气) easily ---- all you have to do is tell yourself not to be angry.
When a baby falls over, it only cries if people are watching it. Like a baby, you should only get angry if
you are sure it is the right thing to do. The book gives many tips (建议) to help you if you get angry easily.
Here are our top three:
1. Keep a record. Every time you get angry write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will
see you get angry too easily.
2. Ask your friends to stop talking to you when you get angry. This will teach you not to be angry.
3. Do something different. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else.
Try to laugh! |

| Joe | In 100 years, the world will be great. Robots will do all the dull jobs
and make delicious food for us. Robots will also clean our rooms and
wash our clothes. Our life will be very interesting. We will travel around
the world to visit our friends. The weather will always be nice. Transport
will be cheaper. It will be fun! | | Tina | In 100 years, the world will be dull. The weather will be hot all the year. Paper
will be expensive because there won"t be any trees. There won"t be any fish in the
sea, and there will be strong winds. Transport will be very expensive, so people will
not travel . It will not be much fun! | | 阅读理解。 | Playing is serious business for children. In fact, it"s what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids
will probably say, "Because it"s fun!" But it"s much more than that. It"s also good for them.
3 Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get know
their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly colored toys and clothing help develop a baby"s sense of sight (视觉).
When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions.
Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination. Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a
high-tech toy. That"s because a box can become anything a child imagines it to be.
Crayons, paints and Play-Doh (彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to crate. Traditional
building blocks teach important pre-math skills like problem-solving. 4. Playing doesn"t become any less
important once children start school. Many valuable (有价值的) lessons about life are learned on the school
playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules. | 1. What can children do best in their childhood?
