三、阅读理解
A
Once there was a dandelion (蒲公英) living alone by the road. It felt bored and unhappy all day, no one ever stopped to take a look at or talk to it.
One day, a mother was walking on the road with her baby. The baby was crying hard and loudly. No matter what the mother did she couldn’t get the baby to stop crying. Then the mother looked down, and she found the lonely dandelion. It looked so lovely in the sun with its white seeds (种子) widely open, and more beautiful than other plants around.
The mother squatted down, picking the dandelion. Then she brought it up to her baby so that he could see it clearly. When the baby saw the flowers of the dandelion, he quickly stopped crying and looked at them with interest.
His mom put the dandelion near her mouth and blew the flowers up and down. The dandelion seeds then flew in the air, spreading far away with the wind. The mother gave the dandelion to her son. He didn’t know what the plant was, but he knew it was fun to play with, which made him giggle (咯咯笑) so happily.
Now the dandelion knew its value (价值) and didn’t feel sad. It lived a beautiful life just by being itself. It wasn’t as beautiful as other flowers, but it brought the child a simple kind of happiness that money can’t buy.
Everyone is special and great. We can help others in one way or another. We’re far greater than we think we are.

A dog can’t speak any words, but it can “talk”. It has feeling just as you do.

When a dog is afraid, it may run away. When you are angry with other people, you stare at (凝视) them. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.
Do you feel “guilty” when you do something you shouldn’t do Dogs can feel guilty, too. Sometimes when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he did something wrong.
Dogs need love and care. Some dogs are very unhappy when they are alone for a long time. Some dogs even snap (撕咬) if they don’t get enough care.
You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Take care of it well if you want to have fun with it. Take it on walks. Don’t make it do too many things. Try not to punish (惩罚) it again and again for doing the same thing. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do.

Love Wild Animals
Good morning, everyone! Today I am very happy to be here to give a report about loving animals.
I think that we should share the same home with other living things. But in fact, there are many unsatisfying problems in our society. People often cut down trees and forests and hunt animals for money. As a result, animals are losing their homes and many natural disasters occur every year.
I suggest that we should take some actions to protect our earth and animals. First, our government should make laws to protect the environment and animals. Besides, our society should organize more activities that are close to nature so that people can feel that nature is our home. Students should also learn about how to protect the environment and animals.
If we do this, our planet will become comfortable and animals can live peacefully. But if we don’t, terrible things will happen. Therefore, let’s act together to create a better home for both humans and animals.
That’s all. Thank you very much!
