Many animals hide(躲藏) to stay alive. They hide in many ways. Some animals hide in leaves; some animals hide in snow. Usually their colors or shapes(形狀) help protect them. It’s hard to see an Arctic bear in snow. Its white fur helps protect it. Chameleons(變色龍) can hide by changing colors. Their skin turns the same color as what is around them. Some chameleons can change colors in five minutes.
Many animals try to look bigger than they are to stay alive. Some animals can make other animals think they are very big. If they look very big, animals that are looking for food will run away. Bears can walk on two legs. They look very, very scary(可怕的). Some animals will run away from them.
Many animals try to stay around other animals. This helps them stay alive. Zebras stay close together so that they can help each other look out of danger. Seeing many stripes(條紋) at once can also confuse(使混亂) animals that want to eat them. Some birds stay in a circle, each toward a different direction. In this way they can also help each other stay alive by looking around for animals that may want to eat one of them.

You’ve probably heard of working dogs that help police officers, or horses that help farmers. Did you know that carrier pigeons（信鴿）can be trained to help people too? Here are some examples.
Mailman
Carrier pigeons can be trained to carry messages to people. The note is placed into a small can. The can is tied to the pigeon’s leg. Then the pigeon flies off with the note.
Lifeguard
From high up in the sky, specially trained pigeons can find orange life jackets in the ocean. Sometimes it is difficult for humans to find people lost at sea, especially when the weather is bad. However, pigeons can fly quickly over a large area of water to look for people.

Many years ago, carrier pigeons were used to help our country during wars (戰(zhàn)爭). “Spy pigeons” had small cameras that were tied to their feet. As a pigeon flew over enemy (敵人)land, the camera took photos of the land below. This would allow our soldiers to see where the enemies were and what they were doing.

There are seven continents﹙洲﹚in the world. Among them, Antarctica﹙南極洲﹚is the most special one. It is a world of snow and ice all year round. China has sent many scientists there. They try to find resources﹙資源﹚under the icy land and study climate change and sea biology.
What do they eat?
Scientists don’t have many choices on what they eat. About 60% their food is frozen food. It is easy to heat﹙加熱﹚。Meat is common on the menu, while vegetables are not usual. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Therefore, people often eat dried and canned vegetables.
How do they sleep?
In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this time, Antarctica faces the sun and gets sunlight 24 hours of the day. In order to get some sleep,scientists cover the window with black cloth to make “night”.
How do they work?
People can wear warm clothes to be against the cold weather, but they can do little with the strong wind. Sometimes, the wind is even stronger than a typhoon. It can easily blow people away.
So there are ropes﹙繩索﹚that connect some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep balance in strong winds.
How do they keep in touch with others?
There are no cables or Internet on the frozen continent. So mobiles and computers don’t work there. Scientists usually use two-way radios to communicate at work. If they want to say hello to family and friends, they can use the satellite phones.
小題1:What do scientists do in Antarctica?
A．They mostly study on the animals and plants there.

When we can see well, we do not think about our eyes often. It is only when we can not see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.
People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.
People who are farsighted face just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.
Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
When night falls, colors become fainter to the eyes and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you, which seems to disappear if you turn your head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something moving to one side of them. When they turn to look straight at it, they can not see it any more, and they believe they were mistaken. However, this mistake happens because the center of the eye, which is very sensitive in daylight, is not as sensitive as the sides of the eye after dark.
小題1:We don’t know that our eyes are of great importance until ________.
A．we think about our eyes
B．we cannot see clearly
C．we wear glasses
D．we have to do much reading
小題2:According to the passage, a ________ is more likely to be nearsighted.
A．tailorB．doctorC．guardD．painter
小題3:People who are farsighted ________ .
A．cannot do a lot of close work without glasses
B．can only see things that are very close to their eyes
C．have difficulty reading a book if they hold it at arm’s length
D．have the same problem as the nearsighted people
小題4:To see a small thing at night, it is better to look ________ .
A．with wide open eyes
B．with half shut or narrowed eyes
C．straight at it
D．in a slightly different direction
