What are the advantages of reading?”The grandfather didnt answer him, but he said to the boy , “Take this little basket to the river and bring back a basket of water for me .” The boy went to the river to fill the basket with water , but all the water leaked out before he got back home. The boy was sad , but his grandfather laughed and said, “Youll have to walk faster next time.”The next time the boy ran faster, but the basket was still empty before he returned home. The boy said, “See, Grandpa, its no use!”“Is it useless ?” the old man said. “Look at the basket.”The boy looked at the basket and found that the basket was different.

Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy. Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. 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 own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any 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 birds song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.36 . Some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually _.Aan expression of happinessBa way of warningCan expression of angerDa way of greeting37 . What is a birds “territory”?AA place where families of other species are not accepted.BA place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.CAn area for which birds fight against each other.DAn area which a bird considers to be its own.38 . Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?ABecause they want to invite more friends.BBecause their singing helps frighten outsiders away.CBecause they want to find outsiders around.DBecause their singing helps get rid of their fears.39 . How does the writer explain birds singing?ABy comparing birds with human beings.BBy reporting experiment results.CBy describing birds daily life.DBy telling a birds story.There are four seasons in most of the countries. But the weather is not always the same. In England, winter is not very cold and summer is not very hot. There is not a great _31_between summer and winter. Do you know why?England has a warm winter and a cool summer because it is an _32_country.In winter the sea is warmer than the land. The winds _33_the sea bring _34_air to England. In summer the sea is cooler than the land. The winds from the sea bring cool air to England. The west winds blow over England all the year around. They blow from the southwest. They are wet winds. They also bring _35_to England. So England has _36_rain all the year .Sometimes it rains heavily. The west of England is wetter than the east.In Canada they have four seasons, too. But the average( 平均 )temperature is very low. Spring is usually very _37_in most part of the country. It comes in February. People can still go skating in some places. Summer is usually very cool.
