Passage　24.Sea　horse

There　are　all　kinds　of　horses　in　the　world.　But　one　of　them　you　can’t　ride.　It　doesn’t　live　on　land，　but　in　the　sea.　It　looks　like　the　head　of　horse.　So　the　people　call　it　sea　horse.　In　fact，　the　sea　horse　is　a　small　fish.　It　likes　to　live　in　warm　water.　A　sea　horse　stands　up　in　the　water　when　it　swims.

Father　horse　carries　the　eggs　to　keep　them　safe　in　its　pouch.　Whenthe　eggsare　hatched，　the　baby　horses　swim　away.

Passage　25.A　Cat　and　a　Bird

There　are　three　trees　near　the　house.　There　is　a　big　tree，　and　two　small　trees.

In　the　big　tree　there　is　a　bird.　Can　the　bird　sing?　Yes，　it　can.　What’s　under　the　big　tree?　It’s　a　cat.

“I　want　some　food，”　thinks　the　cat.　“Bird，　my　good　friend，　Come　here！　It’s　time　to　play　games”　says　the　cat.

“No　today，　thank　you！”　says　the　bird，　“You　can’t　catch　me！　Goodbye！”　Look！　The　bird　is　flying！

Passage　26.A　Flying　Fox

A　flying　fox　is　not　a　fox　at　all.　It　is　a　bat.　But　this　bat　looks　like　a　fox.　A　flying　fox　is　very　big.　It　likes　to　eat　fruit.　Sometimes　the　flying　fox　is　called　fruit　bat.

The　flying　fox　flies　into　fruit　trees.　Then　the　bat　eats　all　the　fruit.　So　fruit　farmers　do　not　like　the　flying　fox.

Passage　27.Flying　Birds

Birds　don’t　fly　high　up　in　the　sky.　The　air　is　too　thin.

It　is　hard　for　birds　to　breathe　in　thin　air.　Thin　air　doesn’t　hold　them　up.

Birds　fly　near　the　ground　so　that　they　can　see　where　they　are.　The　birds　look　for　places　they　know.　Then　they　do　not　get　lost.　Some　birds　fly　so　low　over　the　ocean　that　the　waves　often　hide　the　Many　birds　fly　a　long　distance　in　the　spring　and　autumn.

Passage　28.Air

Air　is　all　around　us.　It　is　around　us　as　we　walk　and　play.　From　the　time　we　were　born　air　is　around　us　on　every　side.　When　we　sit　down，　it　is　around　us.　When　we　go　to　bed，　air　is　also　around　us.　We　live　in　air.　We　can　live　without　food　or　water　for　a　few　days，　but　we　cannot　live　for　more　than　a　few　minutes　without　air.　We　take　in　air.　When　we　are　working　or　running　we　need　more　air.　When　we　are　asleep，　we　need　less　air.　We　live　in　air，　but　we　cannot　see　it.　We　can　only　feel　it　when　it　is　moving.　Moving　air　is　called　wind.　How　can　we　make　air　move?　Here　is　one　way.　Hold　an　open　book　in　front　of　your　face，　close　it　quickly.　What　can　you　feel?　What　you　feel　is　air.

Passage　29.Clocks

There　are　many　clocks　in　the　Brown’s　house.　They　are　in　different　rooms.A　big　clock　stands　in　a　corner　of　the　sitting　roo　It　is　a　very，　very　old　clock，　but　it　still　keeps　good　time.　Mr.　Brown　winds　it　once　a　week.

Passage　30.　Swimming

Swimming　is　a　good　sport.　It’s　popular.　People　like　swimming　because　the　water　makes　people　feel　cool.　But　if　they　swim　in　a　wrong　place，　it　is　very　dangerous.　These　years，　some　people　died　when　they　were　enjoying　themselves　in　water　and　most　of　them　were　students.　Summer　holiday　will　be　there　again.　I　want　to　give　you　some　advice.　First，　don’t　get　into　the　water　when　you　are　alone.　Second，　don’t　get　into　the　water　if　there　is　a　No　swimming　sign.　Third，　you　should　be　careful　in　the　water.　If　you　remember　these，　swimming　will　be　safe　and　it’s　good　for　your　health.

Modern　Technologies

We’re　all　enjoying　the　conveniences　and　happiness　brought　by　modern　technologies.　We　use　telephones　and　mobile　phones　to　call，　emails　to　write　and　vehicles　to　drive；　we　go　to　another　country　by　air　planes；　we　see　what　is　happening　in　the　world　by　TV　programs　and　Internet，　and　we　even　watch　sports　games　on　live.　Nowadays，　without　these　technologies，　I　can’t　imagine　what　my　life　could　be.

I　used　to　read　an　article　describing　the　modern　lives　of　human　beings.　It　says　we　will　have　many　phone　numbers　if　we　want　to　search　for　one　person；　we　send　emails　and　cell　phone　messages　to　our　friends　in　stead　of　visiting　the　More　and　more　people　would　rather　sit　in　front　of　a　computer　than　a　TV.　And　we　seldom　go　to　libraries　to　check　information　now，　because　the　Internet　would　do　all　the　jobs.

We　use　digital　cameras，　scanners，　photocopiers，　blue　teeth　technology　and　digital　signals　for　our　cell　phones…　It　seems　as　if　we　were　living　in　a　real　digital　world.　Actually　I　guess　we　are，　though.　Since　we　are　so　developed　and　advanced，　why　we　are　less　civilized?

We　are　easily　mad　with　our　broken　computers；　we　fed　up　with　things　we　don’t　like；　we　call　our　lovers　to　say　“farewell　and　good－bye”　and　we　are　afraid　to　face　the　facts　which　are　cruel　and　real.　We’re　led　to　a　trend　that　there　will　no　more　face－to－face　communications.　I　would　rather　chat　with　my　friends　with　OICQ　and　emails　these　years，　instead　of　seeing　them　in　reality.

I　hide　myself　inside　my　car　so　that　I　can　flee　away　from　dirt，　air　pollutions，　robberies，　thieves，　winds，　rains　and　snows.　However，　I　could　not　taste　the　spring　rain　and　the　winter　snow　either.　The　nature　is　fleeing　away　from　me　too！

Should　I　thank　modern　technologies　or　blame　them?　I　wonder　if　you　have　got　the　right　answer.

My　Girlfriend　is　Cat－－－－　By　smellycatty

We　knew　each　other　on　the　forum　of　New　Oriental　School.　That　time，　we　both　had　been　hurt，　drifting　in　a　lonely　city　for　a　long　time，　yearning　to　fly，　and　craving　for　true　and　forever　love.

I　studied　GMAT　by　myself　in　a　rented　small　flat，　she　was　working　hard　to　go　abroad　as　a　post－doctor.　Studying　for　the　test，　writing　her　emails，　and　having　long　talks　over　the　phone　late　at　night　became　a　habit　as　well　as　the　happiest　moments　of　my　otherwise　boring　and　lonely　life.　Before　long，　I　found　myself　attached　to　the　sweet　voice　and　the　gentleness　of　the　girl　I　had　never　met.

One　night，　before　I　hung　up　the　phone，　a　sadness　and　romance　surged　up　in　me.　And　I　said　to　her:　“I　want　to　sing　a　song　to　you.”　I　used　to　be　a　big　music　fan　in　college.　I　listened　to　music　as　a　way　of　dealing　with　the　bland　school　life.　And　I　also　liked　to　yell　some　tunes　in　the　corridor　or　on　my　way　back　to　my　dorm　at　night.　Some　people　labeled　my　style　“street　singer”　who’s　from　the　suburb　of　Hong　Kong.

The　song　I　sang　that　night　is　the　original　Japanese　version　of　an　old　song　by　the　name　of　“Half　Full　Moon（月半弯）”.　As　I　already　said，　I　sang　it　thousands　of　times　on　the　street，　in　corridor　and　Karaoke　Bars.　But　my　performance　has　never　been　that　good　this　time.　I　didn’t　know　or　wasn’t　sure　what　kind　of　person　she　would　be　in　my　life.　Maybe　a　friend　on　the　Internet，　maybe　just　an　ordinary　friend，　or　even　my　future　girlfriend，　I　had　absolutely　no　idea.　She　was　some　girl　I　hadn’t　met，　so　I　just　treated　her　as　a　listener　to　my　heart.
