       Can you think of a bird that can't fly but is a very good swimmer? The emperor penguin is one!
       Since last week, six emperor penguins have been on show at the Beijing Pacific Underwater World (太平洋海底世界, BPUW). "I had only seen penguins in my geography textbook," said 13-year-old
Yu Yaxin, when she was watching the birds in the aquarium. "Emperor penguins are much bigger and
taller than I had thought. They're up to my shoulders!"
       One month ago these penguins came to China from the Antarctic.
       At BPUW, emperor penguins have their own room with a swimming pool! A big air-conditioner helps to keep the room as cold as minus four degrees Celsius.
       "They're starting to enjoy their new life now," said Shi Xiaomin, head of the BPUW. "They no longer
hide in the corner when people try to get close to them."
Shi told TEENS that all six were quite lazy. They spend the whole day eating and sleeping. They sleep for more than ten hours a day!
       They're not always as nice as they seem. When they get angry, they make loud noises and move their bodies from side to side. They also hit very fast with their hard flippers (鳍状肢).
       There are 17 kinds of penguin and the emperor penguin is the largest and also most beautiful of all. Its colourful feathers and lively spirit (气度) made people call it the "emperor" of penguins.
       Emperor penguins can swim as fast as 30 kilometres per hour. That's faster than large ships!
       In the wild, emperor penguins spend half their time on the cold Antarctic (南极的) ice and the other
half in the water. They're the only birds that give birth during the cold winters in Antarctica. There are now about 570,000 emperor penguins in the Antarctic.
1. The penguins are from ____.
A. The North Pole.                
B. The Antarctic.
C. Beijing zoo.                    
D. The Indian Ocean.
2. According to Yu Yaxin, emperor penguins ____.
A. are very lazy                    
B. are just big birds
C. are taller and larger than expected  
D. sleep and eat all day long
3. Emperor penguins get their name because they ____.
A. are brave enough to give birth in winter
B. can swim faster than large ships
C. spend most of their time eating and sleeping
D. they are beautiful and lively
4. When penguins are angry, they ____.

Can we live without salt? No, salt is very important to us, we need salt in our food. Animals need it, too. Most of the salt in our country comes from the sea. People dig very big pools and let sea water in. When the sun dries up the water, people can get salt from the ground. The salt is white, clean and beautiful.

There are a lot of salt wells (井) in Sichuan. A salt well is much like a water well. People bring the water up to the ground and then dry it in big jars over fire. In this way, they get salt.

We can also get salt from salt mines(矿). A salt mine may be found under the ground. Some years ago, people in Jiangxi found a big salt mine and opened it. People there don’t need salt from other places.

In the northwest of our country, there are many salt lakes. Some of them are very big. The salt even in a big lake will be enough for our people for centuries.

    Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big.
And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap (捕蝇草).
    The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like
the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs.
If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the
leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
    Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some
places, the ground is very poor. It doesn't have all these important things, especially nitrogen (氮).
Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let's hope that some
of the bigger plants don't get the same idea!
