Three friends, Tom, David and John, came to New York for their holiday. They stayed in a very large hotel. Their room was on the 45th floor.

In the evening, the three men went to the cinema and came back to the hotel very late.

“I’m very sorry,” said the man of the hotel, “but our lifts(电梯) do not work tonight. If you don’t want to walk up to your room, I’ll make beds for you in the hall.”

“No, thanks,” said Tom, “we don’t want to sleep in the hall. We will walk up to the 45th floor. But I know how to make it easier. On the way to our room, I’ll tell you some jokes. Then you, David, will sing us some songs. Then you, John, will tell us some stories, all right?”

So they began to walk upstairs. Tom told them many jokes. David sang them some songs. At last they came to the 34th floor. They were tired and had a rest.

“Well,” said Tom. “Now it’s your turn, John. After all these jokes and songs, tell us a long and interesting story with a sad ending.”

“OK, I’ll tell a sad story,” said John, “It’s not long but very sad. I forgot to bring the key to our room with me. It’s still in the hall.”

Bats are amazing animals. There are many kinds of them. Most bats are black or grey in colour. And they have wings, too. Many people believed that bats couldn’t see. In fact, Bats can always find their way around very well. Usually, bats live in caves and trees. They can fly to their homes from far away. Some scientists said, “Bats can see with their ears.” Is it right? Most bats make a sound. The sound is too low for our ears to hear. They screech（尖叫） when they move around, and the echoes（回声）of these cries come back to their ears. In this way, they are able to tell where walls and other things are. Bats go out to eat at night. In the daytime they hang close together in their caves, trees or other dark places. Only when evening comes，they begin to come out and look for food, In the morning they come home to sleep until the next night. Some people think of bats as bad animals. In fact, they are very useful animals. Most of them catch bad insects（昆虫）for food. Some bats eat flowers and fruit as well.
