【题目】 We see many animals every day, but we would be worried if we saw any of these animals on our way to school!

Walking sharks

In 2006, scientists found a new kind of shark off the coast of Indonesia. It can “walk” with its fins along the coral reefs. These walking sharks are about 1 to 1. 2 metres long. They eat shrimp, crabs and small fish. If they are surprised by something, they can swim away using their fins.

The platypus

The platypus is found along the rivers and lakes of eastern Australia. It lays eggs like a bird, has webbed feet like a frog, a bill like a duck and is as poisonous as a snake! We are pleased to hear that it spends much of its life underground.

An unusual dolphin

In 2006, a Japanese fisherman caught an unusual dolphin. It has an extra set of fins near its tail, about the size of human hands. Scientists say that its extra fins could be the remains of back legs. This may be proof that dolphins once lived on land. Evidence from fossils tells us that dolphins were once four-footed land animals. Scientists believe that as they spent more and mor time in the water, their back legs slowly disappeared.

【题目】In many countries of the world, children are happiest on Christmas Day. It is the birthday of Jesus Christ. On Tuesday Jack and his family have a lot of things to do, because it is the day before Christmas. But Jack gets up late in the morning. As he doesn’t see his mother anywhere, he goes to his father and asks him, “Where is mother?” he replies, “She goes to town to buy some food for tomorrow.” Then Jack begins to read an interesting book. Here is one of the stories which are written in it.

One Christmas Eve, a man named Martin Luther is walking through a forest. The snow covers the trees and looks very lovely. The stars up in the sky look like lights on the branches (树枝) of the trees. When he arrives at his house, he tries to tell his family how beautiful the forest trees were, but he can not find the right words. So he cuts down a little tree and brings it into the room. He puts candles on its branches and lights them. Jack thinks the story is wonderful.
