Parrots are some of the most interesting and clever birds on Earth.They are famous for their ability to copy human speech and sounds.They live in warm places around the world, such as rainforests in South America, Africa, and Australia.These colorful birds have many bright colors—red, blue, green, and yellow—and they have strong curved beaks (弯曲的喙) to help them open food.
Parrots are very special because they are good at talking.Parrots have a special voice box called a syrinx (鸣管).It lets them copy sounds they hear, such as human words! Some smart parrots, like African grey parrots, can learn hundreds of words and even understand simple sentences.But they don’t just repeat words—many parrots use them to talk with people, asking for food or saying “hello”.
Parrots are social animals.They love to live in groups.They spend their days flying, looking for food and chatting with other parrots.They often eat fruits in the wild.They also build homes in tree holes to have their eggs.Many people keep parrots as pets because they are friendly and fun to play with.However, wild parrots are in danger.Some people destroy (摧毁) their living places, and some catch them illegally (非法地) to sell as pets.We need to protect their natural homes, so these talkative birds can keep singing and chatting in the wild.

Molly and her classmates visited the Migratory Bird Centre last Saturday. When they got there, Evans greeted them.
Evans showed the students around the centre. Along the way, Molly saw some workers catching birds with nets. She was surprised. “Why do the workers do that to the cute birds The birds seem poor,” she said. Evans answered, “Don’t worry! Workers catch them to put bands (带状物) on their legs. There is a number on each band. After that, they will let the birds fly away.” Molly then learned that the bands are useful when people want to know how many birds there are.
Then Molly and her classmates continued (继续) their visit. They watched many birds in the trees and listened to their songs.
Evans told them that many birds were in great danger. After hearing that, Molly wanted to help save birds. She thought about ways she could help, like planting trees and keeping the area clean.

Plants and animals are living things. All living things need food for energy. Without a way to get energy, they would die. Plants and animals get their food in different ways.
A plant uses the energy in sunlight to make food for itself. Without the sun or carbon dioxide, small plants would not be able to grow into bigger plants. If you put a seed in the ground and give it water and energy from the sun, it will grow. It will grow into good food for other living things, mainly animals.
Some animals, such as cows and pandas, eat plants. Some animals eat other animals. We call these animals carnivores. Still, plants feed all animals! How Think of a tiger. The tiger eats animals that eat plants. Without plants, the tiger would have nothing to eat.
