6．In Antarctica（南极），when spring comes，ice begins to melt，and the sun stays in the sky all night long．
In the brightly world，the large gray head of a Weddell seal （威德尔海豹） appears through a crack （裂缝） in the ice．The seal takes several deep breaths，and then she opens her mouth，turning her head from side to side．With her teeth，she gets rid of bits of ice．Seals are mammalOs（哺乳动物），and they need to breathe air，for which Weddell seals use their teeth to make sure their breathing holes stay open．
The seal makes the hole bigger，and when she can fit her large body through it，she jumps out onto the ice-she is getting ready to have a baby．On the ice shelf，the seal gives birth to a baby．The baby is about three feet long and is covered with thick fur that protects it from the cold wind．The baby drinks its mother's milk and grows quickly．With a few weeks，it is more than six feet long．Under the seal's skin is thick layer of fat called blubber，which keeps the seal warm in its frozen world．
When the baby seal is about two weeks old，it begins to dive with its mother．They slide through the breathing hole into the water below the ice，where the baby seal learns to swim，diving deeper and deeper．In order to stay underwater，it must learn to hold its breath and control its heart rate．
Below the ice，the sun shines brightly through the hole．Finding the opening to breathe is easy，but getting back onto the slippery ice can be difficult for a young seal．With practice and its mother's help，the baby seal soon feels at home both on the ice and under it．
The young seal spends more and more time below the ice，where it learns to hunt for food．When the young seal is about two months old，it will have to feed itself independently．When it becomes an adult，it will swim farther out in search of food，but it will always live on or under the ice．

4．Science can't explain the power of pets，but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure （血压） and raise chances of getting well from a heart attack，reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer．
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings．For some，an animal provides more comfort than a husband or wife．A 2002study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress （紧张） levels and blood pressure in people---half of them pet owners---while they performed 5minutes of mental arithmetic （算术） or held a hand in ice water．Subjects completed the tasks alone，with a husband or wife，a close friend or with a pet．People with pets did it best．Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates．With pets in the room，people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of others．It seems people feel more relaxed （放松） around pets，says Allen，who thinks it may be because pets don't judge．
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits．Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs； a separate group of 56people without pets were put on a diet program．On average，people lost about 11pounds，or 5% of their body weight．Their dogs did even better，losing an average of 12pounds，more than 15% of their body weight．Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but，say researchers，got more exercise overall---mostly with their dogs---and found itworth doing．
