If you go into the forest(森林) with friends, stay with them. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you get lost, this is what you should do—sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends. Let them find you. You can help them find you by staying in one place. There is another way to help your friends or other people to find you. You can shout or whistle(吹口哨) three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal(信号) given three times is a call for help.

Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you, they will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to call for help.

If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house with branches(树枝). Make yourself a bed with leaves(树叶) and grass.

When you need some water, you have to leave your little branch house to look for it. Don’t just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop(扔) them as you walk in order to go back again easily. When you are lost, the most important thing to do is to stay in one place.

Once upon a time,a hippo (河马)lived in a river next to a big tree.

One day,a bird came and nested (筑巢)in the tree.The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy (羡慕)that he couldn’t think of anything else.Every day he would think why he wasn’t born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer.

Finally,the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river,climb the tree and start singing.However,when he tried to climb the tree,it was very clear that the hippo didn’t have wings,nor claws to climb with.

Realizing that he would never climb up the tree,he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing to the ground.Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree,and began singing.

Unfortunately,hippos can’t sing,either.All that came from his mouth were terrible noises,and when the other animals heard this,they all came around to make fun of the hippo.

It was a great pleasure for the family to move to a house with a very big garden. Betty and Tony could climb up trees,grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.

Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Betty went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken. “It must have flown into the window. ” Tony said when his sister Betty called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck on the window. ”

“Poor thing!”Betty said.

During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows? ” They wondered. Finally they knew the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn’t see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection (倒影)of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window.

“Something has to be done to save the birds.” the parents decided.

At first, the family tried keeping curtains (窗帘)across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk. They made six hawks ——one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away.
