(C) Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight.

Some plants are large while others are small. Most plants are green. Some plants have many small leaves. Others have only a few. There are many kinds of leaves. Leaves are of different shapes and colors. Leaves are also different in other ways. Some leaves have long thin parts at the end, we call them leaf stalks, some have short leaf stalks, others even have no leaf stalks. The leaf edges are also different.

(F) You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABC? You may like eating bananas. But do you know there is such a thing a "banana person"? How strange! Are these people from “another earth”? No, they are just Chinese people like you and me. ABC means American–born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese ,but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside — looking like a Westerner and yellow outside — looking like a Chinese. Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics. But if ABCs can not speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民)of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C .N.Yang (杨振宁).

People love these pets and regard them as their good friends. Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them needles so that they won’t carry disease(疾病). They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animals in Canada. They have a law against killing wild(野生的) animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished(处罚). If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it. People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family tie is not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own career(生涯). Then the seniors(老人) will feel lonely.

New medicines and machines are developing every day to extend life. However, some people , including some doctors, are not in favor of these life extending measures, and they say that people should have the right(权利)to die when they want. They say that the quality of life is as important as life itself, and that people should not be forced to go on living when conditions of life have become unbearable. They say that people should be allowed to die with dignity(尊 严)and to decide when they want to die.
