【推荐3】Frogs produce a lot of eggs up to 4, 000 eggs! However, there are a lot of things happening to tiny little frog eggs. Eggs can be eaten, broken, or washed away. Only about half of the eggs can come out. Sometimes, the mother may stay with the eggs to take care of them. Sometimes, the mother may leave and not come back to the eggs. A baby frog stays in the egg for 6 to 21 days before it comes out.
When the baby frogs leave their eggs, they are called tadpoles (蝌蚪). The tadpoles are green or brown. This helps them hide in the algae (水藻). Many fish will eat the tadpoles. They will start swimming around more and eating the algae after about a week. The tadpoles will stay together and swim.
After the baby frog has been a tadpole for about a month, it starts to change again. The tadpole starts growing the lung (肺). The little tadpole also starts to grow back legs. As it grows more, the tadpole can eat bugs and some plants. The tadpole is stronger, and doesn’t hide as much.
When it is six to nine weeks old, the little tadpole grows front legs. Its lung begins working. The tadpole’s mouth gets bigger and it looks more like a frog. By the time it is twelve weeks old, the little frog will just have a tiny tail and will begin living on land.

【推荐1】Some animals can be trained（训练）to help humans（人类）. For example, Pecilly trained dogs help blind people（盲人）walk around the town safely. Some kinds of monkeys can learn how to help people who can’t use their arms or legs too. The monkeys pick up the phone when it rings, carry shopping bags and do housework.
In the wild（野外）, animals and humans are not usually friends, but there are a few interesting examples where they can work together. In Africa, the honey guide birds work with humans to find food. The bird likes to eat the grubs in a beehive（蜂窝）. It knows how to find beehives but it can’t open them and get the grubs. People like to eat honey, but they aren’t very good at finding beehives, so the bird and the people help each other. The bird flies to a beehive and people follow it. When the people open the beehive and take the honey, they give the grubs to the bird.
In Laguna in the south of Brazil, fishermen and dolphins（海豚）work as a team. The ocean（海洋）isn’t very clean, so the fisherman can’t see the fish. However dolphins can find them easily by using their sounds. When the dolphins find a large group of fish, they make a noise to tell the fisherman. Then the dolphins push the fish toward（朝向）the beach. The fishermen wait in the water near beach and catch a lot of fish in their nets. The fishermen’s nets make it easier for the dolphins to catch fish too. In Laguna, fishermen and dolphins have been working for many years. The fishermen teach their children how to work with the dolphins. The dolphins must be happy to help because they teach their babies how to work with humans!

【推荐2】Animal behavior (行为) is an interesting study. Scientists study the ways animals use to look for food. They study how animals protect themselves from their predators, and which animals kill other animals for food. All of this helps us understand how useful animals can be.
Each country or culture keeps some animals for food. In the United States, people mainly eat meat from cows, chickens and pigs. In other countries, people might raise sheep for meat. These differences come in part from weather and other environmental conditions. People around the world eat all kinds of fish from oceans and rivers. In some countries, people don't always choose some animal groups, such as dogs for food while in other countries, such animals may become people’s favorite food.
In West Africa, animals provide humans with more than food. They have been helping people do daily work for thousands of years. Horses, oxen, and other work animals pull heavy things. Elephants, camels, and other animals carry people and things from place to place. Carrier pigeons (信鸽) have been used to send messages.
People also receive health benefits (利益) from animals. For example, dogs and cats can help calm people down. This is helpful for people fighting illnesses. Animals can also lower stress, helping people to draw their attention to learning new information, such as reading. When people are walking their dogs or horses, it encourages exercise.
Animals and humans share space on Earth, so keeping a healthy relationship with animals, around us is in our best interest.

【推荐2】I’m sure you look into the mirror several times a day. In fact, we can’t live without mirrors. Today, mirrors are everywhere from your room to your father’s car. They are helpful in many ways. The mirror has a long history. But do you know who invented it and when it was invented?
People started using mirrors a long time ago. The first mirrors used were natural mirrors such as reflection in water. The first manmade mirrors were made out of the rock. Later, people used different metals such as bronze(青铜) to make mirrors. Throughout history, different types of mirrors have been used in many different cultures at the same time.
The first glass mirror was invented by a German named Justus Von Liebig in 1835. He used a silvering(镀银) technique to produce the glass mirror. Today aluminum(铝) is the main metal used for mirror.
Today, mirrors come in shapes and sizes. They are used for different reasons. We usually start our days by looking into the mirror in the bathroom. We also often use them during the day to keep ourselves tidy.
Mirrors are important for cars, too. If cars don’t have mirrors, it’s impossible to drive. This is because drivers can’t see other cars coming. Of course, that would lead to many car accidents.
It is said that breaking a mirror causes seven years of bad luck. So, look after your mirrors well.
