The nature is full of mysteries. When autumn arrives in the United States and Canada, you can see one of nature’s, greatest scenes—the yearly migration (迁徙) of the monarch butterflies (帝王蝶).
No other butterfly in the world migrates like the orange and black monarch butterflies of North America. They cannot live for long periods in cold weather. So each autumn around October, the butterflies travel up to 3,000 kilometers south to spend winter in warmer places. Some even fly to the mountains of Mexico. Plenty of monarch butterflies almost block out the sky. And you can hear their wings beating.
The butterflies usually spend two months reaching Mexico. After they stay there for five months, they head back north in spring. But not one butterfly finishes the whole round-trip. They lay eggs along the way and die. Three generations of butterflies will live and die during the spring journey alone. The fourth and final generations of the year are born in early autumn. But the butterflies hardly rest before starting the long journey south again to Mexico. The most amazing thing about these monarch butterflies is that they always return to the same trees in Mexico that their great-great-grandparents used the winter before.
What mysterious monarch butterflies! They remind us of our nation. Millions of people, generation after generation use their blood and lives to build up our happy life. So as teenagers, we should ________.

There are long rivers, and there are famous rivers. The Nile(尼罗河) is longer and more famous than any other river in the world. It runs 6, 650 kilometers. Crocodiles and hippos live in its waters. Pyramids built by ancient Egyptians rise along its banks.
The main branch of the Nile, the White Nile, starts just above Lake Victoria, the world’s second largest fresh-water lake, in east central Africa. Then it flows to the north. At Sudan’s capital, another great river called the Blue Nile joins the White Nile. Together, they form one very powerful river. Then it goes through Egypt’s famous Nile Valley before reaching the Mediterranean Sea.
Ancient Egypt, the first great African civilization(文明), started along the banks of the Nile more than 5,000 years ago. Ancient Egypt ruled the Nile Valley for thousands of years. Great pyramids and temples were built on the banks and we can still visit them today.
Without the rich farmland along the banks of Nile, there might be no ancient Egypt civilization. Every year, the Nile flooded its banks. The floodwaters covered the banks with a rich soil. The Nile’s banks were easy to farm and produce crops.
The Nile also made a perfect highway for boats. The river runs north, but the wind on the river blows south. To go south, boaters put up sail to catch the wind. To go north, they took the sails down. Ancient people bought and sold goods along the river for hundreds of miles.
