B True or False? A goldfish opens its mouth to drink water. False. Goldfish may look as if they’re drinking water, but they actually open their mouths to take in oxygen. Like people, fish need oxygen to live. Oxygen is a gas that is found in air and water. Fish use gills (鳃) to get oxygen from water. The water enters the fish's mouth, and then moves through the gills behind the fish's head. The gills remove oxygen from the water, and the water passes out of the gills. A wagging tail always means a dog is friendly. False. You may know that dogs wag (摇) their tails when they feel friendly. You may not know that they also wag their tails when they are excited or angry. Always be careful with dogs you don’t know. Do not go near a dog unless you already have a friendly relationship with it or the owner says it is all right. Cats can see in total darkness. False. In the wild, cats often hunt for their food at night. For this reason, many people think that cats can see in total darkness. But this is not true. Cats cannot see when it is completely dark, although they need much less light to see than people need. A guinea pig (豚鼠) doesn’t play in the morning. True. Like many small animals, guinea pigs sleep during the day and are active at night, when they look for food. If you want to choose a guinea pig for a pet, it is better to visit a pet store in the late afternoon. That is when you can see a healthy guinea pig playing. 66.

A. drink water B. get oxygen C. let out wastes D. exercise their gills 67. We can go near a dog when ___________.

Dear Pat,
Some time ago, I asked you about the best way to travel to Edinburgh overnight(在 夜间) and you advised me to go by coach. \It‘s cheap and convenient,\“And very comfortable.”Well, I took your advice. Now let me tell you what happened. We left on time and stopped for supper at a café at about 9:30 p.m. It wasn’t the sort of place I like eating in and it was also very crowded, so I decided to buy some chocolate.
We set off again at 10:15 p.m. The lights went off and I settled down to get some sleep. However, the people just behind me kept on talkingloudly. When I eventually fell asleep, the people behind me woke me up! “You’re snoring loudly, \said” and keeping us awake! ” After that I hardly slept at all.
The rest of the journey was like a long bad dream. Then at about 5:30a.m. about 40 miles south of Edinburgh, the coach broke down and wouldn't start after a long period of repair. In the end, the driver had to send for another once and we all had to change coaches — inthe rain! By that time, I was very hungry and I was longing for a nice hot drink. I got one — when we finally reached Edinburgh at nine o’clock! By then I was so tired that I went straightto bed and stayed there for the rest of the day — the first day of my holiday!
As you can imagine, I don’t intend to travel by coach againovernight. Of course I’m not blaming you for all this— but thanks for the advice!
Yours, Ron
