What are you holding in your hand while you are taking the examination？ Right． A pen．

Though it is small， the pen has changed the history， improved the trade of countries， recorded events， carried news， and done far more work for human beings than all other tools．

Progress without it would have been almost impossible． The invention of the wheels， the introduction of steam engine（蒸汽机）， the use of electricity， all these have changed the lives of millions of people， but the pen has done more． It has taken away mountains， and it has prepared the way for all progress and development of the society．

In the past the pen did all the work if you wanted to keep any writing for some time． The lawyers took up their pens and wrote the law of the country from the days when papyrus（纸莎草纸） was first used． The most famous letters in the world were written with a pen． It was with a pen that the greatest thinkers of all time wrote down their thoughts．

The pen is very utilitarian． We cannot sign a bill or write a letter or buy a house without our pen． An agreement is worthless till our name is written with a pen． The writers encourage the world with it． The students take their examinations with it as well．

Our coming into the world is recorded with a pen． Before we have been at school， our name is written on the name list with a pen． We cannot be married till we have signed． A pen records the important events in our life．

Let us remember that we hold in our hand the most powerful instrument which man owns． The pen is a magic tool． Whenever you use it， enjoy it．

Edward rose early on the New﹣year morning． He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family． Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet．

When he came back， his father gave him two bright， new silver dollars．

His face lighted up as he took them． He had wished for a long time to buy some petty books that he had seen at the bookstore．

Why are dogs our best friends．Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we thought，according to a study in Hungary．It found that dogs understand not only what we say，but also how we say it．

"The results were very exciting and very surprising．"Said the researcher Attila Andies，from Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest．

For the study，the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months．The dogs had to sit quietly inside machine，so that the researchers could check their activity．

Then the researcher put headphones on dogs and played people's voice to them．There were four different voice．Some were positive words，such as"well down"，or neutral（不带感情色彩的） words like"however"．The words were also in different tones（音调）．Some were positive and some were neutral．

Brain scans（扫描）showed that the dogs could recognize（辨认）words．as well as the tone of words，much like people do．The positive words with a positive tone brought the stronger activity in their brain's reward centers（反应中枢）．

"It shows that for dogs，a nice phrase can word very well as a prize，but it words best if both words and tones match．"Said Andies．

They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right．Human brains work in the same way．

It gave us a new understanding of language，said Andies．That is，not only do humans understand the meaning in words，other species（物种） do too．

We spent holidays with our uncle．He loved to go on walks to collect stones．One day，he bought us backpacks（背包） and asked us to go to the mountain with him and carry the stones．

The whole day we walked around．Every now and then he put stones in our bags．To our surprise，he also took some stones out from our bags．But we thought he had just found better stones．

When we returned to the house，we were very tired．The backpacks were so heavy that we felt relaxed when we put them down．But uncle's backpack was half empty．

"Why did you put so many stones into our backpacks？"we asked．

"I didn't．You did．"He said．"You didn't know it，but I gave you a test today．I listened to every word you said．Whenever you were complaining（抱怨），I added a stone to your bags．Whenever you talked about something with positive（积极的） thinking，I took out a stone．And now look at your backpacks．"Our backpacks were full of stones．

Your negative（消极的） thoughts are like stones．You carry themin your mind just like those stones in a backpack．The more negative thoughts，the heavier your mind．

Do you know why different animals or insects have their special colors？Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves．

Some birds like eating locusts（蝗虫），but birds can't easily catch them．Why？It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops．When crops are green，locusts look green．But as the harvest time comes，locusts change to the same brown color as crops have．Some other insects with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others，so they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night．

If you study the animal life，you will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves．Bears，lions and other animals move quickly through the forest．They cannot be easily seen by hunters．This is because they have the colors much like the trees．

Have you ever noticed an even more strange fact？A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid（液体）when it faces danger．While the liquid spreads over，its enemies cannot find it．And it immediately swims away．So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all．
