Taking a tour in the South Rim offers visitors the park's full views,while the North Rim shows beautiful wild flowers.

If you love animals,you’ll like the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The “Big Five” live here. They are the lion,African elephant,African leopard,black rhinocero and African buffalo. The name “ Big Five” came from the five animals that were the hardest to catch. Now they are what people most want to see in the wild.

Whether you use your bike for transportation or exercise,vou'll enjoy these fun facts on this vehicle.

In 1817,Karl von Drais,a German baron (大老板) ，invented a horseless carriage that would help him get around faster. The two-wheeled machine could move by pushing your feet against the ground. The machine led to the creation of the modern-day bicycle.

Fred A. Birchmore,25, circled the globe by bicycle in 1935. The entire trip,through Europe,Asia,and the United States,covered forty thousand miles. He pedaled (骑车) about 25,000 miles. The rest was traveled by boat.

There are over a half billion bicycles in China. Bikes were first brought to China in the late 1800s. About 100 million bicycles are made worldwide each year. Over the past 30 years,bicycle delivery (投递) services have developed into an important industry,especially in cities,where the couriers (服务员) are well known for their high speed and riding skills.

Americans use their bicycles for less than one percent of all urban trips. Europeans bike in cities a lot more often—in Italy 5 percent of all trips are on bicycle,30 percent in the Netherlands,and seven out of eight Dutch people over age 15 have a bike.

The Tour de France (环法自行车赛) is one of the most famous bicycle races in the world. Established in 1903,it is considered to be the biggest test of endurance out of all sports.

When I was a child,my parents often took me to an old house in the thick forest. No other children ever stayed there. I didn't even have the choice of playing with a brother or sister.

I could never understand what the attraction (吸引) of the house was,even for my parents,who enjoyed nothing better than to sit in silence with a good book. The woman in the house,my father's distant cousin,was a terrible cook and her food was inedible.

One day,when I was wandering around the garden behind the house,I noticed a wooden house which had clearly been abandoned (被遗弃的) .As I walked towards it,I heard a noise,like an animal moving hurriedly away. Then I saw a man with a long beard standing at the door. I was greatly surprised.

“Please don't tell them you saw me,” he said.“ They never use this place,and I have nowhere else to live. ” “Don’t worry ,” I said. “I won’t tell anyone. But are you all right out here? I mean—do you have enough to eat?” The old man shook his head.

The same evening,I took a small plastic bag into the dining room and,while no one was looking,emptied some of the food into it. Later,I got out of the back door secretly and gave the food to the old man,whose name I had discovered was Taff.

In today's world of modem science and medicine,a more traditional treatment is once again becoming popular—animal friendship.

It is now well-known that people with problems such as heart disease or cancer live longer and get better more quickly if they have pets. Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy,entertainment and loving friendship.

Here is a case that shows the benefits of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin,Ned,had a parrot called Sally,and John used to visit it. When he arrived,Net used to say ,“ Hi,John! ” We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits,Sally began saying “ Hi,John! ” when John came into the room. Then,one day,John turned to the parrot and replied “ Hi,Sally!” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.

Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases,animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases,they are used to teach children to get on and share with others,and even to teach them about animals.

If you want to know more about animal helper programmes,you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You don't have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.

阅读下面的短文，完成相关任务。

In the Charles E. Johnson Elementary School in New York,there is a special radio. It gives people warnings (警报) about bad weather.

One day,there came a sound from the radio. This sound brought the piece of news： a heavy storm was coming. William Tomic,principal (校长) of the school,asked teachers to bring children indoors and put them in a safe place at once.

Minutes later,the storm came. However,because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal,no one was hurt.

“The radio really did work very well.(我们对它的工作感到很高兴) ，”William Tomic said. “The parents were as well.”

The US government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97,000 public schools in the country.

Every year,more than 10,000 big thunderstorms,2,500 floods,1. 000 tornadoes (龙卷风) and some hurricanes (飓风) take place in the US,so the warning radios are very useful. They not only give people warnings about bad weather,but also give warnings about other dangerous things.
