　　A rabbit is running into its hole．You may ask,“What happened?”

　　Well, when a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away．Its tail moves up and down as it runs．When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they run too．They know that there is danger．The rabbit has told them something without making a sound．It has given them a signal．

　　Many other animals use this kind of language．When a bee found some food, it goes back to his home．It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air．This tells the bees where the food is．

　　Some animals say things by making sounds．A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near．A cat purrs(發(fā)出呼嚕呼嚕的聲音)when pleased．Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning．

　　But human beings have something that no animals have－a large number of words about things, actions, feelings or ideas．We are able to give each other information, to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel．By writing words down we can remind ourselves of the things what have happened, or send messages to people far away．No animals can do this．No animals has the wonderful power of language．

　　No one knows how man learned to make words．Somehow he learned to make them．As centuries went by, he made more and more new words．This is what we mean by language．

　　People living in different countries made different kinds of words．Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world．A very large English dictionary, for example, contains four or five hundred thousand words．But we do not know all these．The words we know are called vocabulary．We should try to make our vocabulary larger．Read as many books as possible．When we meet a new word, look it up in the dictionary．A dictionary is the Most useful book．

　　Killer bees started in Brazil in 1957. A scientist in Sao Paulo wanted bees to make more honey(蜂蜜). So he put forty-six African bees with some Brazilian bees. The bees bred(繁殖) and made a new kind of bees. But the new bees were a mistake. They didn't want to make more honey. They wanted to attack. Then, by accident, twenty-six African bees escaped and bred with the Brazilian bees outside.

　　Scientists could not control(控制) the problem. The bees increased fast. They went from Brazil to Venezuela. Then they went to Central America. Now they are in North America. They travel about 390miles a year. Each group of bees grows four times a year. This means one million new groups every five years.

　　Why are people afraid of killer bees? People are afraid for two reasons. First, the bees sting(叮), many more times than usual bees. Killer bees can sting sixty times a minute non-stop for two hours. Second, killer bees attack in groups. Four hundred bee stings can kill a person.
