    Sharks(鲨鱼) are the most frightening animals in the sea. Sometimes we can see sharks swimming in the sea around Hong Kong. People put nets around some beaches to protect swimmers. When there is a "shark's flag", people must slay on the beach. It will be too late if a shark can swim sixty kilometers an hour to you.

    There are 30 kinds of sharks and 25 kinds of them are dangerous. The whale sharks are very big. They can grow to 18 meters long, but they are not dangerous to people. The jaws(大白鲨) and the tiger sharks are the most dangerous kinds of sharks.

    Do you know all sharks must keep swimming, or they will go down? All sharks can feel everything that happens around them. We must keep calm and don't make any noise when a shark is swimming near you.

    If a shark loses a tooth, a new one will grow out very quickly. So sharks always have many sharp teeth.

    It was a very hot day. Two farmers, Jack and Jim, sat in the shade of a large tree. Both of them were eating chapattis (印度薄饼) for lunch. Jack had three pieces of the flat, round Indian bread while Jim had five. As they were about to begin their meal, a young nobleman (贵族) went by.

    "Good day! Good sirs!" said the nobleman. The nobleman looked very hungry and tired, so Jack and Jim invited the man to eat with them.

    "How can we divide these eight chapattis into three equal parts among the three of us?" asked Jack.

    "Let us stack(叠起来) them up and cut the chapattis into three equal parts," suggested Jack.

    After cutting the chapattis, they shared the parts equally, and no one ate more or less than anyone else.

    After they finished the meal, the nobleman insisted on(坚持)paying for his meal. He put six coins in Jack's hand and ten coins into Jim's hand. And the two men were both very glad!

    Do you like camels? Perhaps, they are not so beautiful. But if you are walking in the hot land of North Africa, and the Middle East camels can be very useful. They are called the ship of the desert.

    Camels can live for about 40 years old, but they usually stop working at the age of 25.

    Camels don't like running, because it is too hot. But if you want them to run, they can run 20 kilometers an hour. The dromedary(单峰骆驼) or the Arabian camel, has longer hair and one hump(驼峰). There are about l4 million camels in the world, and most of them are dromedaries.

    An adult(成年的) camel is about 2.1 meters tall, and it can walk for more than 600 kilometers without drinking. They only need to drink water every six or eight hours. But if there is water, they can drink up to 90 liters.
