15、 Dalrymple looked at her class of ten-year-olds. “Today we are going to create a special card for Fathers Day, which falls on this weekend.” Then she busied herself handing out the paper and art materials to her noisy pupils.

17、teristics that make your dad special. The written part of this activity should be completed before you start to decorate your card.” Andrew looked at the blank page.

31、ppiness. Every act is in fact a search for it, even if on the surface it doesnt look so. Happiness is always the main target. Going to the movies, eating in a restaurant and going to a party are all motivated by the desire to be happy. Who does not dream of a vacation in some fascinating locations,

32、a new car, a new house, or the ideal match All people daydream, and some even try to make their dream a reality. And why is that In order to be happy! Many people endanger themselves by climbing steep mountains, entering unexplored caves, or diving into the deep of the ocean in order to enjoy the fe

33、w moments of happiness. A thief may steal because he loves the thrill of danger, or because he desires to have quick money to spend. He is actually looking for happiness, though in a perverted way. Of course not all actions end in happiness. The motive is happiness, but the results do not always bri

34、ng the desire. According to some spiritual traditions, we are spiritual beings in physical bodies. The spiritual part is always happy. Rather, it is happiness itself. But the physical body covers this happiness essence(本质). There is a constant desire to find out this happiness. This is the reason wh

35、y happiness is constantly sought. However, there is no need to search for happiness or to create it, or to have all kinds of outer experiences and actions in order to feel it. On the contrary, everything has to be dropped in order to experience it. Every technique, which helps to relax the mind and

39、 about themselves. A happy person might choose to wear a bright yellow shirt. A swimmer might wear a sea-blue dress. Animals appear in different colours too, but they dont get to pick what they wear every morning. Scientists have known for a long time about some of the ways animal colouring can be b

40、eneficial. They know that some animals colours attract mates or show who is boss. Other animals colours blend(融合) in with their environment; thus the animals cannot be seen by their enemies. Still, scientists do not fully understand why blue jays are blue or why rainforest frogs are golden. Now many

41、 scientists are working hard to figure out the puzzles of animal colours. Part of the answer can be found in an animals habitat, the place where it lives. It turns out that many animals especially birds, fish, and reptiles can see more colours than humans can. These creatures notice colours that sta

42、nd out in their habitat. For example, forests are mostly green, brown, and yellow. For an animal to be seen by others of its species, it would have to be a different colour than its background. That explains why you can find birds of many shades of blue living in forests. Another piece of the puzzle

43、 lies in what an animal eats. Birds often eat things that have chemicals in them called “carotenoids”(类葫萝卜素). These chemicals are what make tomatoes red and bell peppers bright orange or yellow. When birds eat these foods, the carotenoids affect the colour of their feathers. For example, a cardinals

44、 bright red feathers will become lighter or darker depending on how many berries it has found to eat. Some animals do not have any colour at all but they are not just white; they are transparent(透明的)! Transparent animals live mostly in the ocean. This amazing wonder of nature came about because the

45、animals needed a way to escape their enemies. They are often slow, defenseless creatures that would have no way of fighting back if larger animals wanted to eat them. Because there are few places to hide in the ocean, these creatures have to hide in plain sight. A good example of this kind of transp

46、arent creature is the jellyfish. A jellyfishs body is almost all water, so it is very hard to see it floating in the ocean. Animals come in all kinds of colours. Their colours are caused by many different factors, and most animals will remain the same colour for their whole lives. Think how lucky we are to get to change our feathers every day! 1.What is the main idea of this article A. An
