21、al equipment (设备).

So dont feel bad if you dont know the differenc

22、e between a “corner kick and a “goal kick in soccer. If you want to learn more about a sport, you might ask your mum or dad about the programmes that introduce kids to new sports. These may be better than just joining a team that starts playing games right away without much explaining first.Gym clas

23、s and programmes at school can also be a way to try new sports with a mix of kids. Another way to learn about a sport is to watch instructional videos or DVDs or check out library books that explain the rules and offer advice for kids to learn to play them.If you have an older friend or family membe

24、r whos good at a sport, you might ask him or her to help you practice. Some sports are just good to understand, even if you never want to play on a competitive team.

In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship. However, it was

28、nt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression (侵略，好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head aw

29、ay it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission (顺从).In homes with cats and dogs living in peace, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog, and dogs can learn how to talk “Ca

30、t. Whats interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter.

34、 but also to listen to what we want to say indeed, students arent afraid to tell them what they think any more. However, this doesnt mean that teachers dont control their classes. It just shows the fact that times have changed, and so have methods. Teachers are now closer to their students and have

35、developed a kind of easy atmosphere (气氛) that allows students to be in class without feeling restricted (受约束的) to all kinds of rules.
