I am Catherine. I love rock very much. I mean I like climbing mountains not rock music. I like touching the rock and reading the face of the rock. I like it a lot. I feel at home on the side of a mountain. Climbing is only my hobby. I have two long holidays every year. I often climb mountains during the holidays. I am different from other climbers.

Have you ever seen the film Traveling Bird? In the film, groups of birds fly high above the sky and cross the way above snow, rivers, fields, sea and grassland. I’m sure you will love the beautiful picture when you see the film.
But you may not feel so good if you have learnt about bird flu(禽流感) from TV or on the Internet. Some governments had to kill chickens in their cities. A large number of chickens and even some people died in Asia, and nearly 8,500 birds died in Russia because of bird flu.
Chickens can get bird flu from the feces(粪便) of the passing birds. It is not so difficult to control(控制) the chickens in cages or on farms. But it is much more difficult to control the birds in the sky.
Luckily, scientists have found a medicine for bird flu. But the virus(病毒) can change easily and quickly. So bird flu is still a serious problem we must face.
根据上文判定下列句子的正(T)误(F)。
( ) 6. We know how birds get bird flu from the film Traveling Bird.
( ) 7. Not only birds and chickens but also man can get bird flu.
( ) 8. The feces of the passing birds can not cause bird flu.
( ) 9. It is easier to control chickens than to control flying birds.
( ) 10. Scientists have found the medicine, so we needn’t worry about bird flu any more.
C
Scientists think that most animals can’t see colors. The world is black and white to them.
To find out if dogs could see colors, scientists gave dogs food every time they played a certain piece of music. The dog got ready to eat only when they heard this piece of music. They did not get ready to eat when they heard other piece of music.
Then the scientists gave the dogs food every time they showed them a certain color. The dogs got ready to eat when they saw this color. The scientists then showed the dogs another color. Again the dogs got ready to eat. The colors were all the same to them.
Colors are not all the same to the monkeys, however. For example, if we put food in a red box and do this every day, a monkey will always go to the red box to get the food. If we then put food in a blue box, the monkey won’t go to it.
