argument was about，but i have never forgotten the lesson i learned that day.i believed that i was right and he was wrongand he was sure that i was wrong and he was right. the teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson.she brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other.in the middle of her desk was a large，round object.i could clearly see that it was black.she asked the boy what color the object was.“white，”he answered.i couldnt believe he said the object was white，when it was obviously black！another argument started between my classmate and me.seeing this，the teacher told us to change places，and this time i found the object was white.it was an object with two differently colored sides，and from his side it was white. only from my side it was black.sometimes we need to look at a problem from the other persons view in order to truly understand that persons viewpoint.26. in grade three，the writer ran into a major argument

be the best title for the passage?a. teacher or student b. black or white c. experiment or gamed. argument or quarrelb from old times，crows（乌鸦）have been famous for their cleverness. they use tools，work out problems，and even enjoy playing. scientists have studied carefully how crows go about these activities. to make tools，crows cut off leaves with their “mouths”，shape them，and use them to look for bugs(虫子）in wood or plants. just as a carpenter carries his tools with him，a crow will carry its tool around. when the leaf isnt needed for the moment，the bird stores the tool at its feet or somewhere else. to test wild crowsabilities to work out problems，scientists placed food outdoors in covered bowls. they watched with interest as the birds smartly opened the bowls to get the food. scientists also found out that crows can make use of the traffic. for example，crows would drop a nut on the road and wait for a car to run over the nut to break it. besides，crows seem to enjoy playing. young crows will carry a stick or nut into the air，drop it，and fly to catch the object as it falls. so just how smart are crows? perhaps a crow will never do tricks as a dog will.but scientists agree that theres a lot going on in the brain of a clever crow.30. we learn from paragraph 2 that a crow may store the at its feet or somewhere else.a. mouthb. leaf c. woodd. bowl31.
