Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do . When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other when you choose your food. You may it because it smells good or because it good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice.
Different use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.
Although there are many types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the . A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other in the garden. However, most animals have a more diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The of these animals will be different depending on the season.
have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much . This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal , such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modem life.

We should show respect to everybody, especially our elders because they are ahead of us — in age, in wisdom and maturity, in experience and education．Our21 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us22 everything to their kindness and love．
When we 23 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or24 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 25 our own love and gratitude to them． 26, elders have also been through all the years you are27 and know a little more about the world than you do．
It is 28 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new．All younger generations have always29 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 30 ．However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 31．
With changing times and32 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders．Youngsters should 33 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 34 their voices．
If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 35 their places, and sit on the carpet．In buses and trains, youngsters are 36 to give up their places to older people．This is not a37 of who has more rights．It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 38_, or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 39 disadvantage．
When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become40 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness．

James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully 36 the coins that lay on the bed. $24.52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was $90! 37 on earth was he going to get the 38 of the money? He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was 39 to hang around with people when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no 40 to ask his parents, for he knew they had no money to 41 . There was only one way to get money, and that was to 42 it. He would have to find a job. 43 who would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr Clay for advice, who usually had _44 in most things. "Well, you can start right here," said Mr Clay. "My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing." That was the 45 of James’s odd-job (零工) business. For three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was surprised by the 46 jobs that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the 47 of cars he washed and windows he cleaned, but the 48 increased and he knew that he would soon have 49 for the bicycle he was dying for. The day 50 came when James counted his money and found $94.32. He 51 no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode 52 home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard 53 for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more 54 he had bought it with his own money. He had 55 what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.

Blogs allow readers to post comments. There were millions of blogs out there, so I 36 expected anyone to read mine, 37 respond. But almost immediately they did. Twelve messages were 38 after my first entry. I went to the library five times that day—each time there were more.
The next morning I couldn’t wait to get up and hurry to the library. 39 I told my story. It gave structure and a purpose to my day.
For so long I’d been unable to 40 in the real world, afraid of rejection or pity or scorn(轻蔑). 41 here it was safe. This 42 with people on the other side of the screen, many on the other side of the world, was 43 me back to life again.
One particularly cold Tuesday I opened my 44 to see, among emails from bloggers 45 how I was surviving the snow, one saying: “New York Times Journalist Trying to Contact You.” Ian Urbina had discovered my blog 46 when researching an article on people living in their 47 in the U.S. exchanged emails and later he called me up. I hadn’t spoken to 48 for months but, as rain streamed down the glass 49 , the words came. I had been living in the car for almost nine months.
The article 50 on the front page. I didn’t know until I opened my computer. There were emails from people around the world. For almost a year on one had known I 51 existed but now here were hundreds wishing me well. They said they were 52 for me.
Now every time I pressed “Check Mail”, there were more messages. I watched the numbers of the visitors counter on my blog 53 by the hundreds. These were people at their computers all over the world. I felt as of I was viewing a miracle unfold(展开).
Over the next week, in libraries and in the car 54 under lamp posts at night, I wrote my papers. I had notepaper spread 55 the dashboard(仪表盘). And every morning in the quiet of the lane, I wrote for my life.
