Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a in number. Human beings are born with this ability. , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not . However, if you remove two, the bird leaves. This means that the bird knows the between two and three.

Another interesting experiment showed a bird's number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not until the man left the tower. The man had an .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were able to fool the crow.

How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are fooled.

It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human is not much better than a crow's.

Learning English well is a great challenge, but with the help from technology（技术） it can be as easy as a piece of cake.

As well as the classroom, teachers and textbooks, the Internet, TV and radio programs can play an active role in helping learn English. The Internet is full of rich and up-to-date information. English learners might wish to try http://www.in2english.com.cn. It provides cultural information about Britain.

Another useful website for middle school students and teachers is: Besides reading 21st Century School Edition online, students are also invited to put their views on different topics up on the website.

Compared with the Internet, TV programs have their own advantages（优点）: one does not have to sit at a computer and one can hear and watch the programs much better.

One popular English-learning program is called "Modern English". This focuses on spoken English in practical situations such as taking photos and shopping.

If you watch Beijing Television Channel 8, you might see a program titled "Study Abroad". Cartoons are used to explain how to use the word in daily life. Listening to the radio may not be a new way to learn English but it is easy.

China Radio International airs a program called "Studio Classroom" at 6:30 a.m. every day. This 25-minute program is aimed at middle school students and covers subjects from current news to travel and history, all in simple language.

While growing up in Jersey in the 1960s, I always seemed to be building things. One summer I build a model car with my father. It was a simple affair, and as a capable 12-year-old, I could have easily done it alone. But my father spent the time together with me, and before I knew it, we were both out in the garage, working away.

I wish I had thought about this when I was raising my first son. We never built anything together. Oh, we had a lot of fun, for sure. But we never undertook a common work of our hands.

A few years ago, when Anton, my second son, asked if we could build a treehouse in the big silver maple behind our house, his suggestion immediately reminded me of the memory. Yes, I thought. Of course. My second chance. And so, one day while Anton was in school and I had some free time, I bought some wood. But one thing led to another and we got only as far as the ladder and a simple platform. His vision for the treehouse was not fulfilled that summer, and the three following summers saw me involved with other things. In the middle of our quiet supper last night, I looked at Anton, a high school student now and asked, “Anton, are you still interested in finishing the treehouse?” “Sure, Dad,” he said, and within that “sure” was contained, perhaps, his own self-awareness of a childhood to which he was still attached.

We continued where we had left off. I was surprised at how good a worker Anton had become. Where four years ago all he could really do with confidence was hammer nails, now he was measuring and cutting. In one moment that took my breath away, he attempted to center a support beam(支撑梁)while looking to me for direction. “Is it centered, Dad?” I waved him a little to the right. Then a little more. Then I said. “Perfect.”

And it was perfect. As was this second chance, I finally realized that my father hadn't had to help me build that model car in 1966. He wanted to. And that made all the difference.

1.Not having built anything together with his first son, the author felt _____.

A. disappointed B. satisfied

C. regretful D. relieved

2.Why didn't they finish building the treehouse at first?

A. It was too hot those summers.

B. Anton wasn't confident enough.

C. They gradually lost interest in it.

D. They were both occupied with other things.

3.From the fourth paragraph, we can see that the father _____.

A. was proud of his son

B. missed the last chance

C. felt content with the treehouse

D. hoped to finish the work perfectly

4.It can be inferred that the author realized _____.

A. the quiet passing of childhood

B. the difficulty in raising children

C. the children's dependence on their father

D. the significance of undertaking a common work with children
