A group of wild animals lived near a river in Africa. But one day they were very surprised to see the river was dry! Then they decided to have a meeting.
Everybody agreed that the best thing to do was to dig a big hole. They thought they would find some water at last. They took turns to dig. The rabbit was so lazy that she didn’t want to dig. The other animals were not happy about this. They told her that once they had some water she should not have any. They dug for weeks and weeks and at last they found water. This made them excited. But they remembered that the rabbit would not drink any so they took turns watching the water.
But the rabbit was clever. When the giraffe watched the water she gave him some food that had sleeping spice in them. The giraffe eat it and then fell asleep. The rabbit quickly drank as much as possible and then had a good bath.
The next day all the animals found that there was nothing left. Of course they blamed the giraffe. The poor giraffe could remember nothing. He was so shame that he left the village. Today the giraffe does not speak with any of the animals because he is still too ashamed.

Sheep are hardy（艰难的）animals. The sheep have many natural enemies like the mountain lions, wolves and even the dogs. They have to live in tough climates, like the cold or dry climates and feed on different kinds of grass.
Sheep move around in large groups called flocks. In the old days, a shepard and his dog will take good care of the flock. However, in modern times, some farms are so big that they have to go on horsebacks and motorcycles to herd（放牧）them.
The female sheep is called an ewe. The young are called lambs and the male is called the ram. Do you know what kind of sound the sheep makes? Yes, it says "baa-baa" or bleat. Can you make the same sound too ?
Every Spring, the sheep are shorn. This means that their fleece（羊毛）are cut off. Spring is chosen because it is no longer cold and the sheep do not need fleece to keep warm. The fleece has to be removed in one single piece. This needs a very skilled person to do. The shearer must also be strong enough to hold the sheep in place while he is shearing it. A good shearer might take less than 5 minutes to do this. He can shear as many as 125 sheep a day !

B. Today, some robots are already cleaning floors in about 10 buildings around the country, including a skyscraper in central Tokyo. The robots work at night after office workers have gone home. They even take the lift to move from one floor to another.
C. By 2055, about 40 percent of the population in Japan will be over 65 years old. Thus Japanese scientists hope that robots will be the answer to the serious question—what to do with
an ageing population.
D. However, such robots are still rare in Japan. Japanese scientists are trying to build robots smart enough to meet the needs of the elderly in the country.
E. As Japan’s population grows older and its labour force decreases, scientists say new types of robots will play an important part in society because there won’t be enough people to do some jobs.
