Animal's language
We see animals, like rabbits, bees, dogs, birds,{#blank#}1{#/blank#} …, but do you know how these animals {#blank#}2{#/blank#} things? First, let's see a rabbit. When a rabbit sees something{#blank#}3{#/blank#} , it runs away at once. When it runs, its tail {#blank#}4{#/blank#} up and down. When others see this, they run away, too.
Many other animals use this kind of way. When a bee finds some food, it goes back to {#blank#}5{#/blank#} home. It can't tell the {#blank#}6{#/blank#} bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This may {#blank#}7{#/blank#} other bees where the food is.
Some animals say things by {#blank#}8{#/blank#} sounds like a man does. For example, a dog barks when a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} comes near.
Some birds can make several different sounds, each with its own {#blank#}10{#/blank#} . In a word, every animal has its own language.

How do you usually get to school? By bus? On foot? Roby Burch, 16, a US student, gets to school a little differently—he goes by horse .
Burch has been riding his white horse 4 miles to and from school since(自从)the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} of the semester. “Every morning, wearing my blue jacket and jeans, I'm on my way at 6 am. ” Burch says, “The streets are mostly {#blank#}2{#/blank#} at this time of morning. It's a nice way to start the day. ”
The idea was his {#blank#}3{#/blank#} . His family were {#blank#}4{#/blank#} their vacation on their farm this summer, “My dad just said, ‘Roby, you {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ride your horse to school every day. '” says Burch. He thought it really was a good idea.
When they got back home, Burch asked for permission from the headmaster (校长), Joe Cox, and surprisingly, he got the green light. Cox {#blank#}6{#/blank#} allowed(允许)Burch to keep the horse next to the headmaster's house. Then his dad helped Burch find the best route to school. It is along back streets and has {#blank#}7{#/blank#} cars than the others.
For the return trip every afternoon, Burch leaves school at 5:45 pm. Even now, as the days grow shorter and colder, he continues to ride his horse. “ I will ride my horse even in the coldest weather. ” he says.
Burch says the {#blank#}8{#/blank#} time he sat on a horse as a four-year-old boy he was afraid. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} now, “it's what I do best. ” It's no surprise that he wants to be a cowboy (牛仔) when he grows up. “I love riding horses more than {#blank#}10{#/blank#} else. ” He says, “It's really a guy thing. ”
