Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it Scientific (科学的) research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.
A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 meters and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It's like someone walking six kilometers through a dark forest.
Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.
Some animals can sense the earth's magnetic field (磁场), while humans can't. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then come back. How can this kind of fish do that It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.
However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.

I used to live in an area where the public transportation(公共交通) was not very good. If I came back home after 7 pm, I would have to wait in line for about an hour before I was able to take public transport or taxis. Because the line would be so long, there were many special taxis that would come by and offer to take people home without waiting so long, but the price was so high that not everyone could afford it every day.
One day, I worked overtime. When my work was done, it was 9 pm. There was no public transport and I felt so tired that I wanted to return home quickly to have a good sleep. So I took one of this kind of taxis. When I arrived, the driver didn’t ask me to pay and he just did it as an act of kindness. He said that he didn’t ask those who took his taxi after 9 pm to pay. His father had done it before and he found it such a nice thing to do that he decided to continue it himself.
I felt so touched by his words. There were no words for me to express how thankful I was. He made me feel so good during the following days because of that free ride.
I decided to do acts of kindness myself which might have the same influence on me as this one had.

Asking for directions is the first thing we need to do when we get to a different country. Knowing how to ask for help can make our life much easier! Here are some tips for you.
Use greetings and polite expressions. Starting the conversation with a friendly greeting is the most important. If you want to get a great answer, begin by saying "hello" first. And finish with a "thank you" and "have a nice day". There are some polite expressions. For example, "Excuse me, could you help me " or "Hello! May I ask for some help I need to get to the CN Tower."
Build your vocabulary. You should know the basic (基本的) vocabulary that can be used when getting directions. Try to remember places like High Park, Queen Street, and words like traffic (交通) lights, bank, block (街区) and so on. You can use the sentences such as "It's about two blocks away from here, right " or "Should I go along the street until I reach the traffic lights " to make sure you've got the right information.
Learn the most commonly used prepositions (介词) and adverbs (副词). Some important prepositions to remember are "between", "next to" and "straight ahead". And the adverbs "near", "nearer" and "nearest" are very useful when you need to find somewhere fast. You can quickly understand the following—"The zoo is straight ahead." or "It's between a bank and a post office."
Try to know some important landmarks (地标). Every city in the world has its own landmarks. You can cut down search time if you know what the important landmarks are.

Know where you are. If you do a bit of work before you leave for your trip, you can know where you are clearly.
