Nasruddin(阿凡提) was a very clever man. When a nobleman named Shah heard Nasruddin’s stories, he decided to ask some questions to puzzle him.

On a sunny morning, Shah rode his horse and set off. When he got to a crossroads, he saw a man coming to him. He stopped his horse and asked,“I say, Mula（对有学问的人的一种尊称）. Do you know Nasruddin? Where does he live? Tell me.” Shah had a habit of asking the way when he saw every scholarly-looking man. Luckily, this man was Nasruddin.

Nasruddin looked up at the nobleman on the horse and asked,“How did you know I was a Mula?”

“How did I know?” he bragged（自夸）.“Well, I am a mind-reader. That’s how.”

“I am very pleased to meet you,” said Nasruddin with a smile,“I live in the next door to Nasruddin. I know his address. Since you are a mind-reader, read my mind and find the way to his house all by yourself.”

The polar bear is a very big white bear. We call it the polar bear because it lives in the Arctic Circle（北极圈） near the North Pole.

The polar bear lives in snow and ice. At the North Pole there is only snow, ice and water. There is not any land. The polar bear has a very warm coat because the weather is cold in Arctic Circle. You can’t find the polar bear easily in the snow because its coat is white.

A grown-up polar bear is usually about three meters long and weights about 450 kilos. It can stand up on its back legs because it has very wide feet. It can use its front legs like arms. The polar bear can swim very well. It catches fish and sea animals for food. It goes into the sea when it is afraid. People kill the polar bear for its beautiful white coat. The governments of Canada and United States call on that people should stop killing polar bears. They don’t want these beautiful animals to die out.
