The crow （乌鸦） is an ordinary （普通的） bird. It is about twenty inches （英寸） long and black all over. Crows are dirty birds because they live on old bad food. Crows eat a lot of waste food. In this way they are more useful to us than any other bird. They clean up the dirty things in our streets. Crows are always hungry. They look for food all day long, and in the evening you can see them in large numbers flying back to their nests (窝) in the trees. They sleep there at night. Crows are much noisier than other birds. Very often a large number of crows will get together on one house and talk. Sometimes they talk together, and sometimes they do it by talking like human beings (人类). It is easy to tell from(区别) crows' sounds whether they are pleased or angry. Perhaps crows talk a lot because they are friendly birds. A pair of crows will live together all their lives, and if one of them dies, the other one becomes very sad and quiet for the rest of its life and sometimes it dies, too.

    April will bring a new product– the Apple Watch into the market. Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. The price of the watch is from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size and whether it is a sports or regular one. Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this small screen on your wrist. The sensor(传感器)on the screen not only finds your finger, but also knows the difference between when you are tapping(轻触), and when you are pressing harder.

    The watch also has haptic feedback(触觉反馈). You can send personal messages to your friend —such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.

    Besides telling the time, the watch will use 'Bluetooth' to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.

    According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications（应用） that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A 'Hotels' app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even at the airport—passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.

    The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can show your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same sensor as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running. It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without taking exercise.

    How do animals communicate (交流) with each other? They have special “languages”. In fact, they are using signals (信号). Different signals have different meanings.

    For example, when a bee (蜜蜂) finds food somewhere, it flies home quickly. It can't speak, but it can tell others by dancing. Other bees will know where and how far the food is.

    Some animals show their feelings by making sounds. For example, when a dog is angry, it barks (吠). At this time, you'd better stay away from it. Birds can make several sounds to show different meanings. Sometimes we humans show feelings by making sounds instead of by speaking. For example, when we feel painful (疼痛的), we cry“Oh!”or“Ouch!”.

    We humans have languages and words. We can communicate face to face by speaking. We can write down what happened in order to remember clearly. We can also send (寄) messages to people far away. But animals can't.

    Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?

    Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.  As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read.

    Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.

    Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.

    Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don't think the Yao Ming posters on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a two-metre-high computer!
