The best way to teach your children to live a green lifestyle is to live that green lifestyle yourself. When kids see you picking up rubbish from the park, they see value(价值)in keeping public places clean Use these tips to introduce your children to green living：

Use public transport. Use the car only when necessary; at other times, take trains and buses with your children.

A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow(乌鸦) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙视).

\Can you turn over in the air? No, that's beyond you. Let's have a flying competition. I'll show you what real flying is! \

One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.

Now it was the swan's turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments(评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn't see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended(假装) not to notice, and said, \Is that another trick? \

\If you don't help me, I'll lose my life…\

The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach. （1）What can't a crow do? A . Turn over in the air B . Fly for a long time C . Jump around D . Fly in circles

29. （3分）阅读下面短文，按照要求完成思维导图、表格或回答问题（每空不超过3个单词）。

Great white sharks (鲨鱼) in the Pacific Ocean. Wildebeest (角马) in Africa. Arctic terns (北极燕鸥) in the Atlantic. At first, these animals seem quite different. One swims, one walks, and the other flies. But they all have one thing in common. They all migrate (迁徙).

Some migrating animals move to a place with better temperatures. Some go to find food or water. The groups travel as one, but during the trip, they face many different challenges.

One challenge is distance (距离). Some migrating animals take very long trips. For example, one great white shark swam from Australia to South Africa and back. In nine months, it swam about 20, 000 kilometers!

Another challenge is finding enough food or water during the journey. For example, each Mali elephant needs over 200 liters (升) of water each day. To get this, they need to go from one waterhole to another. Besides, migrating animals have to keep away from other animals because they want to eat them. The zebra (斑马) has to avoid lions. Traveling as a group helps keep them safe. When one zebra is in trouble, the other members make a circle around it.

By working as a group, migrating animals travel to live better lives. ⑴________; ⑵________; ⑶________; ⑷________; ⑸________
