Have you ever wondered why birds sing?   1  After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.
  2  Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory. Do you know what a "territory" is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims(声称) as its won. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout.  3  If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. But he expects an outsider almost all the time, especially at nesting(筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird' s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
   5  Most of it has to do with attracting males and setting up territories.

A.A bird does the same thing.
B.Maybe you thought that they were just happy.
C.Shouting loudly is just like a bird's screaming.
D.You can see that birds have a language all their own.
E. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
F. However they sing most of the time for a very different reason.
G. So, just like human beings, birds sing for almost the same reasons.

  1  All the teenagers we chose said they had computers at home. We asked them how much time they spent on their computers in an average week, but we were most interested in what they used their computers for. The average time spent on a computer in a week was about 12 hours, with the highest user averaging 32 hours and the lowest user only 5 hours.   2    3  Fourteen teenagers told us they did some word processing at home, but not very much. Only 2 of them said that computers helped them with their studies, while 8 of them told us they kept addresses and telephone numbers on their computers or used them as diaries. Only 3 of them said they were learning to program computers, and nobody looked up information (other than their address lists).   4 

The results indicate quite clearly that computers are seen by most young people as little more than game machines.   5  It seems to us that, although computers are common in the homes of teenagers, they have not yet become useful tools in everyday life.

A.There no big difference between boys and girls.

B.All of the teenagers questioned said they regularly used to play games.

C.We questioned thirty young people between 14 and 18.

D.But some adults admitted that they had no computers at home.

E. None of them used their computers for any other purpose.

F. I don’t know how important a computer is for teenagers.

G. The other important users are for word processing and organizing address lists.
