1.Nobody is perfect
There is an old saying that all of us are born with two bags hung on our necks. A small bag in front of our chest is filled with other people’s faults(缺点), while the big one at the back is full of our own shortcomings(缺点).
So it’s easy to find other people’s faults, but it’s hard for us to see our faults behind us. There was a boy, Tommy, who always opened the front bag to check what was in it. He saw other people’s faults very quickly. When Simon was impatient(不耐烦)with him, he said to Simon, “It’s so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you.”
He told his mother about Jack’s dishonesty(不诚实). “Jack takes my things without asking. He also forgets to return them.”Tommy himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.
When Johnny was too tired to play with him, he said, “You are such a rude person.” He thought Harry was too proud of his rich parents. But Tommy was as proud of himself because he could not see any of his own shortcomings! He could not understand why he did not get on well with others.
1.重点单词:

chest[t est] n.
rude [ru:d] adj.

2.Birds can see colours
颜色是我们生活中不可或缺的一部分,但是你知道鸟和人一样可以看到颜色吗?
Birds can see colours, just as people do. Birds need to see colours when they fly because they need to find places to land(着陆). Colours help them know how far the place is and what it is like so that they can catch flying things in the air or land on something they think safe.
Birds can “tell” the differences between colours. But for some other animals, such as wolves, the world looks like a black and white photo. Wolves look for food mainly by listening.
They can hear clearly when the animals they hunt move. But other animals seem to know this. For example, a rabbit will stop moving when it finds there is something dangerous. Then the wolves may not find it at all. However, birds are better than wolves in these ways. They can see dead insects(昆虫)from far away.
Some birds’ eyesight is better than people’s. They can see small insects when they fly in the sky. Because they are able to see colours, they can find food easily and find out if there are other animals that are dangerous to them.

After that he gives his statues arms and legs, and paints them carefully. It usually takes him twenty hours to paint a statue. At last, he puts the statue in a glass dome (圆顶状物) and people can keep it for a long time.
Steve Casino calls himself a “Painter of Nuts”. “I eat peanuts every day and they’re always around. I feel happy to use peanuts to make things,” he said.
