sounds above water.They make many more sounds under water.People cant hear these sounds because the sounds are very very high.Scientists make tapes of sounds and study these tapes.有时人们抓到海豚放在很大的水族馆（一个水族馆是个鱼的动物园），人们看演出能够看见海豚。海豚不喜欢远离水族馆里面它们的学校，它们很伤心也很孤独。Sometimes people catch dolphins for a large aquarium(an aquarium is azoo for fish”.People can watch dolphins in a

do we yawn熊打哈欠，骆驼打哈欠，很多哺乳动物也打哈欠。我们为什么要打哈欠实际上没有一个人知道答案。Bears yawn,camels yawn,most mammals yawn.Why do we yawn.No one reallyknows the answer.我们知道每一个人打哈欠的方法都是一样的，首先你慢慢的张开嘴巴，你的嘴巴继续张开5秒钟，然后你很快的闭上你的嘴巴。We know that everyone yawns in the same way.First you open your mouthslowly.Your mouth stays open for about five minutes,then you close yourmouth quickly.33333我们知道打哈欠是有传染性的或者易传染。当你看到有人打哈欠的时候，你也会打哈欠，很多人说他们打哈欠是因为很无聊或者很累。这可能是真的，然而我们知道当人们兴奋或者紧张不安的时候他们也会打哈欠，参加奥运会跑步项目的运动员，比如说 在赛跑之前运动员经常会打哈欠，为什么呢We also know that,yawning is contagious or catching.When you see someoneyawn,you also yawn,many people say that they yawn because they are verybored,or tired.This might be true.However we know that people also yawn,when they are excited or nervous,Olympic runners,for example,often yawnbefore a race.Why is that许多科学家认为打哈欠让你更加警觉。当你打哈欠时，你呼吸更深，你还伸展你脸部和脖子上的肌肉。可能这让你感觉更加警觉。Some scientists believe that yawning makes you more a alert,when youyawn,you breathe moredeeply,you alsostretch your musclein your faceand your neck.Maybe this makes you feel more alert.科学家不花费时间研究打哈欠。那可能因为打哈欠不会伤害人，它只是我们做的某事。Scientists do not spend time studying yawning,that is probably becauseyawning does not hurt.It is just something we do.第二单元 第二课为什么人们会大笑Why do people laugh你每天会大笑吗大多数人会这样做，科学家说这些人笑的次数大约一天17次，那是很多笑声。Do you laugh everyday Most people do.Scientists say that

club.The peoplein these clubsget together every morning.First,they stretch their hands above theirheads.Then,they pretend to laugh.Soon everyone is laughing naturally.People say that they feel good after laughing together.科学家相信笑对你有好处，为什么呢首先，笑是好的运动，当你笑的时候，你锻炼了你身体上的好多肌肉，科学家说那个100个笑相当于跑步10分钟，当你笑的时候，你也深深地呼吸，这帮助你放松，那也对你有好处。Scientists believe that laughter is good for you,why For one thing,laughter is good exercise.When you laugh,you exercise muscles in yourbody.Scientists say that one hundred laughs equal ten minutes of running.When you laugh,you also breathe deeply.This helps you relax.That isgood for you,too.为什么我们笑那是个难回答的问题，我们知道人们一群的时候更经常大笑，当他们独自一人的时候，他们不经常大笑，很多科学家相信我们利用笑联系其他的人，笑帮助我们感觉到我属于这一群人里的一部分.Why do we laugh That is a hard question to answer.We know that peoplelaugh more often in
