　　You know that pearls grow inside oysters, but would you ever think to look for diamonds inside an ostrich ? Well, a hunter once shot an ostrich and discovered, to his great surprise, that the big bird had swallowed a bunch of diamonds.How could such a strange thing happen?

　　Like many other birds, the ostrich swallows small stones that stay inside its " gizzard." The gizzard is a bird's second stomach.It is where the food is ground up.The small stones help to grind up the food so it can be digested.They do the chewing, because birds don't have teeth.In the case of the ostrich with the diamonds, the bird simply had expensive taste in rocks.He used the diamonds to help digest his dinner.Diamonds and stones aren't all that an ostrich will swallow. If there are no stones around, it will eat just about anything.Sadly for ostriches in zoos this can be a fatal habit.The tendency to swallow anything it sees has caused the death of many an ostrich.Cruel or careless people often throw things into the bird's living space.They throw keys, coins, even large objects such as horseshoes.The ostrich swallows them without hesitation.Coins can be the worst.Inside the ostrich they wear down to a razor sharp edge.They will cut open the bird's gizzard from the inside.One young zoo ostrich died with 484 coins, weighing more than eight pounds, in its gizzard.

　　Ostriches eat stones because they don't have________

　　A.enough food

　　B.bird seed

　　C.teeth

　　D.diamonds

　　37、 The ostrich is not smart enough to________

　　A.digest its own food

　　B.eat only diamonds

　　C.avoid eating harmful objects

　　D.escape from the zoo

　　38、 The phrase "they do the chewing" makes the rocks seem as though they are________

　　A.important

　　B.alive

　　C.dangerous

　　D.uncomfortable

　　39、 "Fatal" is another word for________

　　A.foolish

　　B.careless

　　C.deadly

　　D.cruel

　　People need to be active to be healthy.Our modern lifestyle and all the conveniences we've　become used to have made us keep a long time sitting, such as sitting around in front of the TV or the computer, riding in the car for even a short trip to the store and using elevators instead of stairs.That's dangerous for our health.Physical inactivity is as dangerous to our health as smoking!

　　Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carets for　siblings, or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them.Thousands more are not registered at any school at all, because of their families' unstable lives.Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths.First of all, the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves.Secondly, once children go to school, we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.In Britain, the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade schools to bring truants (children who do not go to school when they should) and excluded children back into the classroom.It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children.Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school; if they do not meet the target, the grant is withdrawn.Parents are the subject of this campaign, too: the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school, and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.

　　A.live in stable families

　　B.walk around on the streets

　　C.are not registered at any school
