A crow(乌鸦) is about twenty inches(英寸) long and black all over. Crows are dirty birds because they live on bad food. Crows eat a lot of waste food. In this way they are more useful to us than any birds. They clean up the dirty things in our streets. Crows are always hungry. They look for food all day, and in the evening you can see them in large numbers flying back to their nests(巢) in the trees. They sleep there at night.
Crows are much noisier than other birds. Very often a large number of crows will get together on one house and talk. Sometimes they talk together, and sometimes they do it by turns(轮流) like human beings(人类). It is easy to tell(判断) from crow’s sound if they are pleased or angry. Perhaps crows talk a lot because they are friendly birds. A pair of crows will live together all their lives, and if one of them dies, the other one becomes very sad and quiet for the rest of its life and some time later it dies too.

The Belt and Road Initiative is rooted（檀根） in the ancient Silk Road．It focuses on the
Asian，European and African continents，but is also open to all other countries．All countries，from
either Asia，Europe，Africa or the Americas，can be international cooperation partners of the Belt
and Road Initiative．
Today，China is trying to build the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road．The Belt and Road can create chances in challenges and changes．" Peaches and plums do not speak ， but they are so attractive that a path is formed below the trees．"Four years on，over 100 countries and international organizations have supported and got involved in this initiative．We are sure the dream of the Belt and Road is coming true．
