AIn some parts of Holland the land lies so low that the people have to build great walls of sand and earth, to keep out the sea. These walls are called dykes(堤坝).Sometimes the water from the sea break down these walls, and then the sea rushes in through the beach, and spreads over the land.Houses and trees, cows and sheep, have been thus washed away, and many people drowned. (溺水).Once, when a little boy was going home in the evening, he saw a hole in one of the dykes, through which the water was flowing(流出）.His father had often told him that when this happened, unless the water was stopped it would soon make the bole so big that the sea would flow over the land.At first he thought he would run home and tell his father.

Please buy me from this awful woman.”The man could hardly believe his ears. A dog was whispering to him, in English.“ She is so mean to me,” the dog continued. “She never pets me or plays with me.

WorriedDCuriosity(好奇心) is part of human nature, Children are famous for wanting answers to thousands of questions. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. But curiosity also provides many advantages.Learning is the easiest if you have a desire (愿望)for knowledge. Curiosity can create that desire when you have a question you want an answer to. Many of history‘s greatest discoveries were made by curious people. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world and have useful technology to help them.Even if you don’ t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the joy of learning, classes will become more fun. And you’ ll be better because you will fully take part in the process of learning. Even if you're no longer a student, curiosity will make you get more information and then a better worker.What do you do if you're not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. If you act like you're curious, you’ ll quickly start to actually feel curious. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes.As you learn about a topic, collect information from as many sources(来源) as possible. Read different kinds of books, listen to talks and ask questions. Don't always get your information from the same source. Instead, learn to appreciate (欣赏)facts that different people know and the different opinions that they express. Ask a lot of questions. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t. Find out what that is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes the other person happy by letting them show off their knowledge.In the classroom or out of it, developing curiosity is sure to be valuable.46.
