While gardens can be a great place for pets to explore and play, some seemingly harmless plants and gardening products can be poisonous for animals or pets. Here are the garden products to avoid:

Cocoa mulch

Some gardeners like to use cocoa shell mulch in their gardens but, just like chocolate, cocoa shell mulch contains theobromine (可可碱), which is poisonous to dogs. This means that cocoa shell mulch can be potentially deadly if consumed in large quantities. If you own a dog I’d strongly advise that you avoid using Cocoa mulch in your garden.

Compost

Despite being an eco-friendly garden feature, compost can be highly dangerous for animal. As organic matter decomposes, it releases mycotoxins (霉菌素), which are poisonous to wildlife. Consumption of mycotoxins can cause panting, vomiting (呕吐), seizures and even death in dogs. If you do use compost in your garden, make sure it is securely fenced off so that your pet cannot access it.

Weed killer

The chemicals contained in weed killers can be irritants to animals and, in some cases，even poisonous. Some weed killers contain harmful substances, such as borax and arsenic, which can potentially be fatal to pets. If you are unsure whether a weed killer is safe to use in a garden that your pet uses, you should always seek the manufacturer’s advice first, or ask a vet (兽医).

Fertiliser

Different fertilisers can contain a wide range of ingredients, including insecticides, fungicides and bacterial. The caustic nature of some fertilisers also means that, if consumed, they can cause stomach upsets for pets. Some fertilisers can also cause more serious symptoms, such as vomiting, muscle tremors or even death, so keeping your garden fertiliser free is the simplest way to ensure that it is pet friendly.

If you think your pet has eaten something they shouldn’t, or if you have any other concerns about your pet’s health, you can call the video vet service FirstVet at any time of day and speak with a qualified UK vet.

We have some friends who seem as if they understand and appreciate you, but really they might not. A girl named Nevaeh was about to find a friend that she thought understood her, but she actually didn’t.

When Nevaeh was in kindergarten she didn’t have friends. Every time she wanted to make some they would just walk away. That happened until she went to the third grade when a girl named Brooke said hello to her.

Nevaeh, a shy girl, didn’t answer. Since Nevaeh had no friends to talk to, her mouth would close up. After knowing Nevaeh was shy and needed friends, Brooke wouldn’t leave Nevaeh’s side and always talked to her. Nevaeh started talking more and was less shy. Once Brooke took her to her friends. There were only three girls, Karla, Mariana, and Isela, but Nevaeh was fine with it. At least she had friends.

They got along very well and had a few things in common. When they were finally in middle school, Brooke and Nevaeh became best friends, but as they got older, they changed. When Nevaeh changed the way she looked and acted, Brooke didn’t like it. Brooke started to judge her, and make her wear stuff that she didn’t like. They had arguments about the way Nevaeh wanted to look, and how Brooke didn’t like what she wore.

Nevaeh wasn’t sure if she could really trust Brooke anymore. That was until she met Susan who understood Nevaeh and didn’t judge her by her looks, but had the same interests as Nevaeh. They liked to dress in the same kinds of things and had similar hobbies.

Nevaeh really liked Susan because she never judged her. When they were talking about their interests it was like they had known each other for a long time.

Nevaeh was still friends with the other girls, and was happy that she finally had someone that understood her and appreciated her.

To the untrained eye it might seem like just a bit of a monkey trick. But when Milly the mandrill (山魈, 西非洲产的大狒狒) covers her face with her hand she is actually sending a serious message to her fellows: “Leave me alone!”

Experts believe the 15-year-old mandrill invented the gesture to warn other monkeys at Colchester Zoo to give her some space. And, surprisingly, the signal has been picked by other members of the group, who use it when they too require solitude.

Biologist Mark Laidre believes the behavior is evidence of social culture among the mandrills. Importantly, the sign language is unlikely to have been influenced by human activities because mandrills do not copy humans. Mr. Laidre expects further research will uncover other monkeys using cultural gestures — the ability to communicate with the hands in a meaningful way. “By covering their eyes with their hands, possibly conveyed to others that they wanted to be left alone and this message may have been respected as a ‘do not disturb’ sign,” said Mr. Laidre.

While the hand is in place, other monkeys are not likely to approach or touch the monkey. Those who rank lower in the social order also use the technique to avoid attacks from more powerful group members. As the discovery appears to be unique to Colchester Zoo, it suggests it is a local phenomenon that arose naturally in the community of 25 mandrills.

Curator （园长） Sarah Forsyth said: “We believe Milly made up the signal and over the past five years some of the younger mandrills have picked it up. We’re not sure why she started doing it but it could be as simple as ‘I can’t see them, so they can’t see me’. It really does show you how intelligent mandrills are.”

1. What’s the text mainly about?

A. How humans influenced monkeys.

B. A monkey invented a gesture.

C. A new social culture was discovered.

D. How experts made the new discovery.

2. What does the underlined word “solitude” in the second paragraph mean?

A. Aloneness.　　　　 B. Comfort.

C. Protection.　　　　 D. Respect.

3. According to Mark Laidre, _____.

A. human activities affect mandrills’ sign language

B. animals are slow in picking up information

C. mandrills’ social culture has nothing to do with humans

D. mandrills are the largest species of monkey in the world

4. The monkeys can also use the “do not disturb” sign to _____.

A. protect themselves from being harmed

B. struggle against more powerful group members

C. show humans how intelligent they are

5.What can be known from the text?

A. Milly invented the gesture when she was 15.

B. Mandrills are best known for their social ability.

C. Why Milly first used the sign language is known to experts.

D. Only the mandrills in Colchester Zoo use the gesture.
