21、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 the 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, 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.

22、Below is some advice given by the English children on how to help Africa. Who do you agree with?
I think being healthy is the most important thing. We need to make sure that the money we give is spent wisely. The money should be spent first on clean water supplies and better health care.
---Robin, aged 16, Birmingham
I think the most important thing is to improve the education in the African countries. There is an old saying, “ If you give a man a fish, you’ll feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish, you’ll feed them for lifetime.” We need to help people to help themselves, not just throw money at the problem when it appears.
---Rebecca, aged 15, Liverpool
People seem to give a lot more money to charity when there is a sudden, huge disaster like the earthquake. It’s good for people to do so, but I also think that everyone should give a small part of their money to charity. If everyone does that, it will make a big difference.
---Mary, aged 14, Stratford
Giving money to charity can help, but it’s not the final answer. I think what these countries need is a good government.
---Bethany, aged 16, Newcastle
The best thing we can do is to send experts like engineers, doctors and teachers to help the people to help themselves.
---Robert, aged 16, Cardiff

24、Qi Haoran, a Junior student, was quite busy over the past winter vacation and not just with his homework. Qi, together with other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign (光盘行动). The students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food. "Excuse me, do you know that nine million people around the world still haven't got enough to eat? Could you please not waste food?" They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.
China in recent years has experienced serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 20 million people for a year. It's a tradition that Chinese people offer lots of food when they invite others to dinner. Many even feel that they will lose face iftheir guests have eaten all their foods
Luckily the campaign has got the support of many. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner gives the guests who have eaten up all that they ordered a sticker. People can enjoy a free meal when they have ten stickers. More than seven restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers (剩饭剩菜) home.
Wasting food is a serious problem around the world, not only in China. It's said that two billion tons (吨) of food ends up as waste every year. This is as much as half of all the food in the world. The UN Environment Programme and the Food and Agriculture Organization held a "Think, Eat, Save" programme on 2 January to help reduce food waste.
