8．We know that many animals do not stay in one place．Birds，fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time．They move for different reasons：most of them move to find food more easily，but others move to get away from places that are too crowded．
When cold weather comes，many birds move to warmer places to find food．Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed．The most famous migration （迁移） is probably the migration of fish，which is called"salmon"．This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water．There it spends its 1ife．When it is old，it returns to its birthplace in fresh water．Then it gives birth and dies．In northern Europe，there is a kind of mouse．They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded．They move down to the low land．Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside，and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea．
Recently，scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster （龙虾）．Every year，when the season of the bad weather arrives，the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean．Nobody knows why they do this，and nobody knows where they go．

1．Warm weather and sunny days mean it's a barbecue （烧烤） season in the US．These days，when people say they're going to a barbecue，they usually mean that they're going to cook the food over a grill （烤架） outdoors．Popular barbecue foods include hamburgers，hot dogs，and vegetables．
Barbecue fans say that this is not real barbecue； it's just grilling．True barbecue-also called BBQ-is an American tradition （传统） that is as old as the country itself．
Barbecue refers to meat that is cooked for a very long time （sometimes as long as 24hours） over low heat from a wood fire．The smell of the burning wood adds flavor to the meat，which becomes soft as it cooks．
Different parts of the US have different ways of making barbecue．In Texas，people often use beef．In North and South Carolina，pork is the most common．In Kansas City，pork ribs （猪肋排） are the favorite．Eachregion （地区） says that its own barbecue is the best．There are barbecue competitions every year，and even magazines about the art of making great barbecue．
Most Americans don't have the time or patience to dig a hole，fill it with special wood，light a fire and then cook meat carefully over it all day and night．So when they want a real barbecue，they go to restaurants that do the hard work for them．For those who want to have their own，easy barbecues，there's always grilling．

Love，
