We know that many animals do not stay in one place．Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time．They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded．
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food．Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed．The most famous migration (迁移) is probably the migration of fish, which is called “salmon”．This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water．There it spends its life．When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water．Then it gives birth and dies．In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse．They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded．They move down to the low land．Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea．
Recently (近来), scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾)．Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean．Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go．So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t．Maybe living things just like to travel．Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to _______．
| A．give birth |
| B．find food more easily |
| C．enjoy warmer weather |
| D．find beautiful places |
The fish called “salmon” spends a long time in ______．

In classroom, your teachers will talk about topics that you are studying．The information they provide will be important for you to know when you take tests．So you must be able to take good written notes from what your teachers say．
Here are the three stages(阶段) of taking notes and what you should do during each stage．
1.Before Class
Review your notes you have taken before you come to class．This will be good for remembering what was covered．Get you ready to understand new information your teacher will provide．
2.During Class
Keep your attention on what your teacher is saying and “the signal words” that tell you what your teacher is going to say and it is important to write in your notes．Examples of signal words are “The most important point…” and “Remember that…”．Be sure to include in your notes information that your teacher repeats or writes on the blackboard．Write quickly so that you can include all the important information in your notes．Do this by writing abbreviations such as med for medicine, using symbols such as % for percent, and writing short sentences．
3.After Class
Rewrite your notes to make them more complete and accurate(准确的) by changing abbreviations into whole words, symbols into words, and shortened sentences into longer sentences．Use them to answer your questions．If necessary, ask your teacher for help．

Two students started quarreling at school．One student shouted dirty words at the other, and a fight began.
What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, disputants(争执者) sit down with peer mediators (同龄调解者)．Peer mediators are usually students with special training in this kind of problems.
Peer mediators help disputants to talk in a friendly way．Here are some of the ways they use.

C
What do you think of black cats? Are they unluckier than cats of other colors? Many people in Western countries think so．Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), did a study on cat colours and people’s understandings of cat personalities．
The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by color．Scientists did a survey on the Internet．There were 49 statements (描述) matching five cat colorings with 10 personalities．People think orange and bi-coloured (双色的) cats are friendly, tri-coloured (三色的) cats are not generous, and white cats are calm, lazy and shy．As for black cats, people think they don’t have special personalities．
But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets? People think black cats have less special personalities, which might be because of their bad reputation (口碑)．They think black cats may bring bad luck, especially at Halloween．Movies and television shows also make people believe that.
Although people have these ideas, UC Berkeley scientists give another reason: people don’t think black cats are pretty enough．After all, nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats．“You can’t judge a cat by its colour, because it’s the personality of the cat, not the colour, that will let you know if the cat is right for you,” Cathy Marden, a scientist said.Many people in Western countries may think black cats are___________.
