There is a very special wolf that lives in Africa.They are actually called the African wild dogs, or painted dogs.
These animals live in open woodlands, or in the plains of Africa. Today, however, most of the animals can be found in eastern or southern Africa.These animals are beautiful.They have rounded ears instead of pointed like most dogs, and they have four toes on each of their four feet, also a unique characteristic because other dogs have five.Their fur is always different from each other.The fur is usually a combination of black, brown, red and white, and sometimes even yellow.No wonder they're called the painted dogs.
The African wild dog is a very social animal.They live in groups and have numbers from five to about twenty.The members of a group are always very close to one another.They communicate in their own language or body language.When someone is very old or sick, the others will help, and they are willing to share the food with the elders and with those who are weak, which is what we should learn from.
The family does everything together, from raising young, to sleeping together, to hunting.When they hunt, they will work together using team work to kill animals that are larger than them.
They sometimes hunt farm animals.This is unfortunate, because both poachers, and people who own farms shoot the painted dogs who are just trying to survive.
Before, there used to be many large groups throughout the land, but now the African wild dog is very rare.They are also losing their population because of their own loss of habitat thanks to human's farming and forest cutting.

Creativity is the process of taking an idea and applying it in real life, if we aren't creative, we can't think outside the box and question what we can do.
Asking questions is a good way of sparking creativity.

Second, we can encourage learners to invent their own questions. We can do this for a topic that students are familiar with in their study.Firstly, discuss what makes a good question.Secondly, create questions by grouping questions into different types—open, closed, or one that challenges the imagination.Finally, put those questions in order according to their importance.
Our teachers encourage us to ask questions and not accept the standard answers without Reasoning(推理).Our school has some activities annually to inspire creativity in every student.Our teachers encourage us to be creative and think of solutions for real world problems.On the whole, the freedom of being allowed to be ourselves is what brings out the best in our creativity.

Creativity is the process of taking an idea and applying it in real life, if we aren't creative, we can't think outside the box and question what we can do.
Asking questions is a good way of sparking creativity.
First, we can ask learners questions that have more than one possible answer.In science: “How many ways can you find to empty a glass of water without touching it ”In any subject: “What else would you like to know How do you know that is true Is there another way of doing this?”
Second, we can encourage learners to invent their own questions. We can do this for a topic that students are familiar with in their study.Firstly, discuss what makes a good question.Secondly, create questions by grouping questions into different types—open, closed, or one that challenges the imagination.Finally, put those questions in order according to their importance.
