Have you ever wondered why birds sing Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “territory” is A territory is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims(声称)as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species(物种)are welcome. Your yard
and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
25. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually ________.
A. an expression of happiness B. an expression of anger
C. a way of warning D. a way of greeting
26. How does the writer explain birds’ singing
A. By telling a bird’s story. B. By comparing birds with human beings.
C. By reporting experiment results. D. By describing birds’ daily life.
27. What is a bird’s “territory”
A. An area for which birds fight against each other.
B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
C. A place where families of other species are not accepted.
D. An area which a bird considers to be its own.
28. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season
A. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
B. Because they want to find outsiders around.
C. Because they want to invite more friends.
D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.

I had times when I almost gave up. Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet, Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peer teens and me.

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.
It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment(公寓房间) in New York City.
Momand looked around himself and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series (系列) of short stories, He called it ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common name in the United States. ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.
People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.
33. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ______.
A. want to be as rich as their neighbors. B. want others to know or to think that they are rich.
C. don’t want others to know they are rich. D. want to be happy.
34. The underlined word “neighbourhood” in the second paragraph means “________”.
A. a person who lives near another. B. people living in an area.
C. an area near the place referred to. D. an area in another town or city.
35. Arthur Momand used the name ‘Jones’ in his series of short stories because ‘Jones’ is ________.
A. an important name. B. a popular name in the United States.
C. his neighbor’s name. D. not a good name.
