Do you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colors? Colors in them
seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because
locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are
green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color
as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by
others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves.
Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by
hunters (猎人). This is because they have the colors much like the trees.
Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of
very black liquid (液体)when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over (散开), its enemies
(敌人)cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not
strong at all.

In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney.
He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children.
When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said ”Stop! That’s our duck!”
The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The
Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat.
Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience
liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very
quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子).
Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a
goody-goody like Mickey.
In the 1930S, ‘ 40s and ‘ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made
hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the
world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were
no more new cartoons.
Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on
television and hear that famous voice.

There once lived in China a very foolish king and queen. One day the queen had a baby
daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried out, “My goodness! How small it is! It’s
hairless and toothless! It’s a monster!” They sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered
them to prepare some medicine for her.
“When she drinks your medicine, she must grow to the right size and have hair and teeth,”
the king said, “If you don’t do this, you’ll have a beating.”
The doctors thought it impossible, but they dared not say anything against the king’s order.
Just then and old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it
takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snow melts for the
second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years. So we need twelve
years.”
At last the king agreed and the doctors took away the little princess. On her twelfth birthday,
they brought her back to her parents with long black hair and beautiful teeth. The king and queen
were very happy and gave the doctors expensive presents.

Long ago ,there lived in Greece a learned man. He was so well known for his good
knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from
him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great
patience.
One day a student asked him, “ My dear teacher, didn’t you say you yourself have
many ,many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than
you.”
With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles ,one as large as a big cake, the other
smaller. Then he said , “Of course, I have learned much more. But it’s wrong to think that a
teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the
bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles
is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger
circle. That means I have more opportunities to face what is still unknown. And that’s why I
myself have more questions than you do. The more you learn , the more questions you have. You
will never learn enough ,you know.”

It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or
a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics.
But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists before us
didn’t get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even
finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind.
The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught
at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They
worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their
brain.

Fire can help people in many ways. But can also be very harmful. Fire can heat water warm
your houses, give light, and cook food. But fire can burn things too. It can burn trees, houses,
animals, or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forests.
Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting, old
stories about the first time a man or woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a
man very, very long time ago. He went up to the sun by a rope and brought fire down.
Today people know how to make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with
them. But matches can be very dangerous. One match can burn a piece of paper, and then it might
burn a house. A small fire can become a big fire very fast.
Fires kill many people every year. So you must be careful with matches. You should also
learn to put out fires. Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is oxygen in the air.
Cover a fire with water, sand, or in an emergency, with your coat or something else. This keeps
the air away from a fire and kills it.
