Squirrels(松鼠) are cute and interesting animals that can be found in many parts of the world. They are known for their long tails, big teeth and the ability to climb trees.
They can jump up to 6 meters in height, and they can run up to 32 kilometers every hour.
Squirrels have soft bodies. Their eyes are high on their small heads and are placed on each side so they can see wide and far without having to turn around. This often helps them get out of danger.
Squirrels have four big teeth in the front of their mouth that keep growing all through their lives. They are known for their love of nuts(坚果), and they can eat as much food as their body weight each week. They will often keep nuts in the ground for the long winter months. Many people think that squirrels only eat nuts, but this isn't true. They also like to eat plants, fruits, eggs, small animals and even young snakes.

The Great Barrier Reef is the world's longest reef(礁). It is over 2，300 km long and lies along the north eastern coast of Australia. The reef is made up of billions of corals(珊瑚). It is home to over 1，500 different kinds of fish.
How did the Great Barrier Reef form
The Great Barrier Reef we see today is less than 10，000 years old. About 10，000 years ago, at the end of the last Ice Age, the ice at the North and South Poles turned into water and flooded the land on Australia's coast. It became covered with water. The shallow(浅的) water was the perfect place for corals to grow. Over thousands of years, they joined together to create the Great Barrier Reef today.
Why is the Great Barrier Reef dying
The Great Barrier Reef is facing many problems today. Pollution, overfishing and over tourism have all caused damage(破坏) to the reef. However，the biggest danger facing the Great Barrier Reef is global warming(全球变暖). Warm waters are causing the corals to die. The Great Barrier Reef has lost around half of its corals since 1995 and this number will only increase if we can't slow or stop global warming.

African elephants are the largest land animals on Earth. They are a little larger than their Asian cousins and you can tell from their larger ears that they are African elephants. Africa is quite a hot place. Animals always have their own ways to keep cool. The ears of elephants are like fans and they can help keep these large animals cool, but sometimes the African heat is too much. Therefore, elephants also do other activities to keep themselves cooler. For example, elephants are fond of(喜爱) water and enjoy showering by sucking water into their trunks and spraying it all over themselves.
An elephant's trunk is a long nose which is used for smelling, breathing, drinking, and also for grabbing(抓取) things. African elephants have two finger like features on the end of their trunk. So the elephants can use them to grab small things.
Elephants eat roots, grasses and fruit. An adult elephant can eat up to 300 pounds(136 kilograms) of food in a single day. These hungry animals do not sleep much, and they walk great distances when they look for the large quantities of food that they need to keep up their large bodies.
It is difficult to survive(生存) for elephants. Because some people like ivories, many elephants are killed. For keeping elephants from being killed, we need to avoid buying ivories. As is known to all, when the buying stops, the killing can, too.
( )4．How can we tell an African elephant from an Asian elephant
A．By its trunk.
B．By its body.
C．By its ears.
D．By its ivories.
( )5．How do elephants get cool according to the text
A．By drinking too much water.
B．By swimming in the rivers or ponds.
C．By using the ears to cover their heads.

One spring day, there was a beautiful rose in a forest. She greeted her neighbors, including a cactus(仙人掌), an apple tree and other plants. Then, she said to the cactus, “I'm the most beautiful flower here, but you are full of thorns(刺) and so ugly！”
Day after day, the rose never stopped being unkind to the cactus. The cactus, however, never got sad or angry. Instead, he always calmly said, “All lives have meaning.”
As summer came, it was hot and dry. The rose began to become weak, but the cactus grew well. He had a wide root system(根系) and was good at storing water in his body.
One day, the rose saw a bird make a small hole in the cactus with its beak(喙). The thirsty bird drank the water inside the cactus through the hole.
“It must hurt，” said the rose.
“Yes，” the apple tree said, “but the cactus doesn't want to see his bird friend in trouble.”
The rose was so thirsty(口渴的) that she asked the cactus for water. He kindly agreed. The bird filled its beak with water and watered the rose's roots.
The rose was quite sorry for what she had said to the cactus before. From then on, she understood that a kind heart is far more important than a good look.
