Some people do not seem to have a mind of their own．They never express their own ideas and they do not decide to do what to do themselves．My brother is one of these people．Last night, for example, he was going to read at home．At about seven thirty, his friend Tom came in．“Let’s watch TV．” “OK．” my brother answered．By ten o’clock my brother was tired and sleepy, and he wanted to go to bed．But Tom said “Let’s go out and get something to eat．” “Good．” my brother answered．He often says things he does not mean and does things he really does not want to．Worse than that, he does not say the things he would like to say or do a lot of things he would not like to do．

Dolphins are not fish, but warm-blooded animals．They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language．In a way they are like other animals, such as bees and birds．But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals．Their brain is nearly the same size as our humans, and they live a long time－at least twenty or thirty years．
Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help themselves find their way around．They also make the sound to talk to each other and to help them find food．We now know they do not use their ears to receive the sound, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw．
Strangely, dolphins seem to like humans, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people．
There is a story about sailors in the 19th century．In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack．From 1871 to 1903, Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way．Then in 1903, a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack．He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area－except for The Penguin．
Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them．

The Giraffe
One of the tallest and most interesting animals is the giraffe．Male giraffes are usually about six meters tall．Half of the giraffe’s height comes from its neck, which is longer than its legs．
A giraffe has big brown eyes which are protected by very thick lashes．Since it lives in parts of Africa which are usually dry with a great deal of dust, the lashes are an important source of protection．It can also cover its nose in order to protect it．It has brown spots on the skin and this color helps protect the giraffe．The giraffe also has two short horns on its head．
Like the camel, the giraffe can go a long time without drinking water．One source of water is the leaves which the giraffe eats from trees．Since it is so tall, the giraffe can reach the leaves at the top of a tree．
Giraffes usually live in small groups and often feed with other animals．A baby giraffe is two meters tall at birth．It can stand up by itself within a few minutes and can run well in about two days．
Giraffes have two methods of self-protection．If something frightens an adult giraffe, it can run away at about fifty kilometers per hour or stay to fight with its strong legs．

Do you remember your dreams?Do people have the same dreams?Why do we dream?There are many questions about dreams．We dream during the REM(rapid(快的)eye movement)stage(阶段)of sleep．We have about five periods of REM sleep during the night．The first REM cycle(周期)lasts about 10 minutes．As the night goes on, the REM cycle gets longer．By early morning, the REM cycle can last up to 90 minutes．Usually, it is in this last REM cycle that we remember our dreams．
Dreams change as people age．People may have several dreams each night．Some are like films and usually in colour．They come to us over and over again．That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something and trying to find the answer．Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a dream．But often we can't remember the dreams clearly．
It is reported that too much dreaming is bad for our health．The more we sleep, the longer we dream．The mind is hard at work．That is why we may have a long sleep and still feel tired when we wake up．

In the summer time, when there are many flowers, a beehive(蜂窝)is a very busy place．Bees fly from flower to flower．Flowers have a juice called nectar(花蜜)．Bees take the nectar that they like and make it into honey(蜂蜜)。
When a bee finds some good nectar, it hurries home．It wants to tell the other bees where the nectar comes from．And it does!It tells by doing a dance．
The dance tells which way to fly．It tells how far to go．The bees go back together for more nectar．
Every bee in the beehive is busy．That is why we say that someone who works hard is“as busy as a bee”．
