We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Lets look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about dogs, for example, a homeless dog, a mad dog and a dog catching a mouse, have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, you are a lucky dog means you are a lucky person. And every dog has its day means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a persons serious illness, they say sick as a dog. The word dog-tired means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, cat is often used to describe a woman who is cruel.The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose means love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.（1）Every dog has its day means _. A . Everybody in the world is luckyB . Each person lives his own way of lifeC .

The boy looked at me surprisingly, but he picked up the violin. While going out of the room, he suddenly saw a huge photo of me playing the violin at the Grand Theatre of Sydney on the wall. His face turned pale. He stood there for a moment and ran out.

Finally, a violin player called Merritt won the first prize.After the prize-giving, Merritt ran to me holding a violin box, his face red, and asked, Mr. Brian, do you still know me?

I think the situation all over the world is really terrible. Firstly, I feel so sorry for the giant panda. Pandas mainly live on bamboo. A panda can eat about half its bodys weight(重量) of bamboo in 24 hours！Thats a lot of bamboo. I think we should try to do more to stop cutting down their forests. We would be so sad if they disappear. Secondly, what we should try to protect more is the Chinese alligators(短吻鳄) . They live in some parts of eastern China. They live in freshwater rivers and lakes but the water in some places isnt clean enough for them to live in. Its really dirty in fact. The government should stop factories from polluting the lakes and rivers. If we protect these beautiful animals in China, more people may come to China to visit our beautiful country, especially to see the quieter areas in the country. Now most visitors just see the cities. I hope you will encourage(鼓励) more people to think about such an important subject. Yours, Huang Jing（1）Whats Huang Jings project at school about？ A .

We are not sure.（4）What does the underlined word polluting mean？ A . 保护B . 危害C . 清理D . 污染（5）Whats the main problem in the places that the Chinese alligators live in？ A .
