“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it！”
That may seem a strange thing to say.But touching things can help you to see them better.Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round.But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is.You can feel how heavy the glass is.When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.With your skin, you can feel better.For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket.You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.
All children soon learn what “Don't touch！”means.They hear it often.Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up.In shops, we touch things as we might buy food, clothes and so on.To see something well, we have to touch it.
There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin.Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin.At first, it is not easy to feel these things.You are too used to them!
Most museums are just for looking.But today some museums have some things to touch.Their signs say, “Do touch！”There you can feel everything on show.If we want to see better, reach out and touch.Then you will really see!

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt（被子）.“Mom, I have a question to ask you.”“What ” she replied, still doing her work.“Is there love between you and Dad ”
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. Then she said, “Susan, look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. Love is inside.”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. After they were back from the hospital, my mother helped him walk slowly on the beautiful country road every morning. My father had never been so gentle. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him.“Dad, how are you feeling now ” I asked him one day.“Susan, don’t worry about me, ”he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom. ”Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

A．针 B．被子 C．线 D．爱
( )4．Why couldn’t her father walk by himself
A． Because her father was seriously ill. B． Because her father liked walking with his wife.
C． Because his father didn’t get good treatment（治疗）.D． Because his father had a bad temper（脾气）.

Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.
Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.
“It must have flown into the window,” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck(粘贴) on the window.”
“Poor thing!” Emily said.
During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows ” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn’t see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window.
“Something has to be done to save the birds.” the parents decided.
