Al bears can hibernate. 1Before a bear settles down for his long sleep, he eats much. All bears like honey. They will do almost anything to get it. But they are almost as fond of berries. Berries help the bear put on that extra bit of fat it needs for its long winter sleep. In the late summer and early fall, bears will often travel as much as a hundred miles to feast among the berry brushes. 23 Yet, there is another reason. This is the time when their babies are born. Bear cubs are tiny at birth compared to their mother. She may weigh as much as 600 to 800 pounds. Her cubs may weigh less than pound apiece. The cubs are blind and helpless during the first few weeks after birth. In this state they could never survive an unfriendly winter. 45 The kind of den varies with the kind of bear and the climate it lives in. Some dens may no more than a hole in a hollow tree. Some are just holes dug in a river bank. The larger bears, however, need bigger dens. Grizzlies, for instance, dig out a den which is 10 to 12 feet deep. They bed it down with leaves. Then they seal it with earth and stones. Some bears in Yellowstone National Park even enjoy steamheated cavess among the hot springs. Black bears often build a den under a thick pile of logs. Or they may choose the roots of an upturned tree and let the heavy snows provided a good roof over them. Truly, hibernating keeps them safe and sound.A. They put on extra fat they need for the long winter sleep.B. Even the large bears like the grizzlies come down from the mountains to find berries.C. Bears winter dens vary.D. But it is mainly those who live in the earths colder lands that do.E. Their dens keep the cubs safe and warm.F.

Freezing lowers the food temperature below zero degree Celsius. That is the point where waater turns to ice. 1 , it is important to lower the temperature to etween minus fifteen and minus twenty degrees Celsius as quickly as possible. The faster the freezing process is, the fresher the taste of the food.Fruits and vegetables can be spread out inside the freezer. Once the food is frozen, 2 . fruits are usually not cooked before they are frozen. This allows them to keep their fresh taste. The simplest way to prepare fruitsis to cut them up and place them in a container inside the freezer. In some cases it is better to permit the fruit to freeze before putting it in the container. This will keep it from sticking to the container. This is called the “dry pack” method.3 . The fruit is prepared along with some of its liquid or juice. You can add some sugar to fruits that are naturally juicy. The sugar sweetens the fruit and brings out its natural juices.4 . Blanching means placing the vegetables in boiling water for a few minutes and then quickly placing them into very cold water. Blanching slows down the natural chemical aging process. All extra water should be removed before placing the vegetables into containers and freezing. 5 .A. it should be placedi containers and then stored at a temperature of about minus twenty degrees CelsiusB.

In societies where social roles are strictly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. 2What si remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed overthe centuries but how much they have remained the same. It is the universality of toys about their development in all parts of the world and their continuing to the pressent that is amazing. 3 . nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to technological progress that characterizes inventions for adult use. 4 The progress from a rattle used by a baby in 3000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. 5 .A.
