Once, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival. The son was very excited to see all the colorful
kites in the sky and asked his father to buy him one. To make him happy, the father went to a nearby shop at
the park and bought one.
The son started flying his kite excitedly. Soon it reached high up in the sky. After some time, the son
thought to himself, "It seems like the string（绳子）is stopping the kite from flying higher. If I break it, the
kite will be free to fly even higher. " So he asked his father for a small knife and cut the string.
Without the string, the kite did go a little bit higher. However, it soon started to come down and landed
on a tall tree. The son was sad. He expected that the kite would fly higher after he cut the string, not fall
down. He turned to his father for a reason.
"Well, the string wasn't holding the kite down; it was actually helping it stay up when the wind was calm
and guiding it in the right direction（方向）when the wind picked up, " the father explained. "When we cut
the string, the kite lost that support and fell down. Similarly, in life, we may feel that limits（限制）, like
rules or hard tasks, are holding us back, but they are actually guiding us in the right direction. "

often rushed to the toilet then back to class with no time for anything else. But now that has changed. "I can
have more time to rest and share interesting things with my classmates, " said the 14-year-old.
Starting this fall term, students at primary and middle schools in Beijing have longer breaks between
classes. It has been changed from 10 minutes to 15 minutes so that students can spend more time outdoors

To help children better enjoy break-time activities, some schools have mixed break time with labor
education（劳动教育）by opening planting areas and animal feeding zones.
"We have welcomed new friends to our school—some ducks and rabbits!" said Zhang Boren, a
13-year-old boy from Beijing 101 Middle School Kuangda Campus. "During the breaks, some play with
these cute animals, while others exercise on the playground. We get closer to the nature, which is refreshing
（神清气爽的）and relaxing. "
As the break time is longer, making sure everyone is safe is also important. Physical education(PE)
teachers from the School Affiliated to Chaoyang Education Research Center keep an eye on students playing
on the ground.
"Sometimes the ground can be wet in the morning, so we tell the students to do more upper（上部的）
body exercises to avoid（避免）running and slipping（滑倒）, "said one PE teacher.

Do you like animals Which animals are smart Your answer may be dogs, apes or elephants. Now,
there is one more animal to add to the list: sheep.
According to an experimen（t 实验）, scientists from Cambridge University said that with training, sheep
could recognize（识别）human faces, the BBC reported. Before testing, scientists showed the sheep pictures
of four famous people, including former US president Barack Obama and British actress Emma Watson.
Then the sheep went into a room with two computer screens. One screen had an unknown person and the
other had one of four famous people. The sheep often walked toward the screen with the famous person's
face.
After finding out the animals' ability to recognize famous people, researchers gave them a new task.
They wanted to see whether the farm animals could correctly recognize the same people from different
angles（角度）。The animals were still able to recognize them, though they were a bit slower to pick out the
pictures than before.
Finally, the researchers wanted to know if the sheep could recognize their trainers（训练员）from a
photo. The screens showed photos of their trainers randomly（随机地）along with a number of other people
' s faces. Without any training, the sheep could pick out their trainers.
The results show that the animals' face - recognition abilities are similar to those of monkeys, apes and
humans, according to the BBC. The researchers said it might be interesting in the future to find out whether
sheep can pick out different facial expressions（面部表情）of humans.
27．How does the writer start the topic
A．By giving examples. B．By asking questions.
C．By comparing facts. D．By listing numbers.
28．In which order does the writer show the experiments
