There are many kinds of amazing animals in the world．Have you ever watched one of them﹣Canada geese （雁）？They can teach us a lesson about teamwork（合作）．

In autumn，Canada geese have to fly to the warm south to get away from Canada ‘cold winter．When they leave the ground and rise into the air，they fly in no order．Then they quickly form a V shape，with one bird leading the group．

The V shape allows Canada geese to save energy．The head bird moves its wings（翅膀） up and down．The resulting（产生的） force of the air help lift the next bird．Each bird will do so until they get to the southern part．The bird at the head of the group has the hardest job．When it gets tired，another bird moves to the front and takes its place （代替它）．By sharing this job，the group can travel great distances．Canada geese flying in a V shape can fly seventy percent farther without having a rest than the birds flying alone．

During the long flying journey，Canada geese communicate with one another，They honk（鸣叫） to encourage the birds up front to keep up the speed．They also cheer one another up while working toward the same destination．

What have we learned from the lovely Canada geese's experience and skills？

Work together! Whether in our personal lives or our jobs，we need the spirit of teamwork!

" Were the birds on the ice ducks or geese (鹅) ?" Cruz, 11 , and Anthony, 12，couldn't agree. There was only one way to find out. So on a cold January evening, the two friends took a risk onto the frozen(冻结的) lake near their homes.

"First,, we threw a stone onto the ice to test it. We thought it would hold our weight. Then we stepped on it," Cruz said. Anthony went first.　 He took a few steps, then... He fell through the seemingly frozen ice!

There are seabirds as well as land-birds. The most ordinary seabird is the seagull. It has a white body. a white head, and a yellow beak. There is a spot of red at the very end of the beak. All gulls have very strong wings so that they can fly far out to sea. If a gull flies out too far, and is too tired to fly back to the shore, it does not get frightened, for it can sit and rest upon the waves. A seagull's wings do not get wet because all its feathers have a kind of oil over them, so that when the water gets on to the feathers it just runs off again. Seagulls can even sleep on the waves.

Seamen know a lot about seagulls and they never kill them. When the seagulls fly a long way out to sea, seamen say that it means fine weather is coming. When the seagulls stay near the shore, seamen say that there will be much wind and rain, and perhaps a storm, for the seagulls know more about the weather than seamen do.

1.What is the seagull?

A. A fish.　　 B. A land-bird.

C. A seabird.　　 D. An animal.

2.Why is every seagull able to fly far out to sea?

A. Because it is very light.　　 B. Because it has very strong wings.

C. Because it always flies high.　　 D. Because it is strong enough.

3.Why does a seagull not get frightened even when it is far away from the shore and it is too tired to fly back?

A. Because it can swim under the sea.

B. Because it can stay under the sea.

C. Because it can rest and sleep upon the waves.

D. Because it can jump into the sea.

4.Whycan~t the water make the seagull's feathers wet?

A. Because its feathers are thick.　　 B. Because its feathers are long.

C. Because its feathers are light.　　 D. Because its feathers are oily.

5.What will the weather be like if seagulls stay near the shore?

A. Windy, rainy or stormy.　　 B. Sunny and hot.

C. Fine and warm.　　 D. Freezing cold.
