How Do Animals Catch their ZZZ's（打鼾声）？

Different creatures have developed some pretty creative ways to get their rest and stay safe． The lizard likes to sleep at the far end of small branches hanging out over a pond or lake in the rain forest． If a snake tries to slither up the branch to eat it, it will shake the branch and knock the lizard off, and the lizard will fall safely into the water． Chameleons can change color to match their surroundings in order to hide even while sleeping．

Gorillas like to sleep high in the trees． They build a new bed every night, sometimes taking up to half an hour to pile branches, twigs, and leaves into a comfortable bed． Birds also find it safe to sleep in the trees, but unless they have eggs or young chicks, they don't use a nest． They just lock their feet around a branch and hang on． A special tendon in their legs is automatically tight when they are at rest, so they won't let go and fall．

Dolphins live underwater, but must come to the surface to breathe． Scientists now believe that dolphins may sleep with only half their brain, while the other half stays awake to keep them safe and breathing． Seals also do this, lying on their sides on the surface of the water with one flipper underwater paddling to keep their noses above the surface． Some ducks may also have this ability, and actually sleep with one eye closed and one eye open． 56.How does a chameleon protect itself while sleeping?A

A．By changing its body colors． B．By hanging out over a pond．

C．By sleeping with half their brain． D．By making beds with branches． 57.Why will not birds fall when they are at rest?D

A．They build nests and sleep in them．B．They fall asleep automatically． C．They have a loose tendon in their legs．D．They lock their feet around a branch． 58.How do dolphins breathe?B

A．They breathe underwater． B．They come to the surface to breathe．

C．They breathe underwater or come to the surface to breathe． D．We don't know． 59.What does the writer intend to tell us?B

A．The cleverest animal is the gorilla because it can make beds． B．Differences in habitat can lead to different living habits． C．The ways animals catch their ZZZ's are pretty much the same． D．In order to protect themselves most animals choose not to sleep

It was the first snow of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers． Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help．Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she must still remember this one．

I managed to get into my wool snow trousers． But I struggled on my jacket because it didn't fit well．It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes． At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty． Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子）．

In her calm, motherly voice she said, \own boots.” I didn't realize at time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence（信心）．

I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot． Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work． After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh（叹气）worked the second one on too． I said, \．”

She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again． \． \．

Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn't an annoying（烦
