My friend saw a trainer nearby and asked why these elephants just stood there and didn't   38   to get away.

“Well，” he said，“when they are very    39    and much smaller，we use the same size rope to tie them.At that age，it's enough to hold them.As they grow up，they are used to   40   that they cannot break away.They believe the rope can  41   hold them，so they never try to break free.”

A

A hare was very popular with the other animals who all said they were her friends.But one day she heard the hounds(猎犬)getting close and hoped to escape them by the aid of her many friends. So，she went to the horse，and asked him to carry her away from the hounds on his back.But he refused，because he had important work to do for his master. He felt sure that all her other friends would come to help her.

She then came to the bull，and hoped that he would repel the hounds with his horns (角).The bull replied，"I am very sorry，but I have an appointment with a lady;but I feel sure that our friend the goat will do what you want." The goat，however，feared that his back might do her some harm if he took her upon it.The sheep，he felt sure，was the proper friend to ask for help.

So she went to the sheep and told him the situation.The sheep replied，"Another time，my dear friend. I do not like to have anything to do with it，as hounds have been known to eat sheep as well as hares."

The hare then went，as a last hope，to the calf (小牛)，who regretted that he was unable to help her，as he did not like to take the responsibility (责任) upon himself，as so many older persons than himself had refused the task.By this time the hounds were quite near，and the hare took to her heels and luckily escaped.

Junior school students in Harbin，Heilongjiang，had a "long weekend".They had four days off from Oct.19-22.It was not for any festival，but was caused by serious smog.

The smog was caused by high levels of PM 2.5 in the air.

PM 2.5 is small particles(微粒) of pollution in the air with a diameter (直径) of 2.5 micrometers or less.Waste gas from cars and factories is the biggest cause of PM 2.5 pollution. On Oct.17，the World Health Organization named air pollution a cause of cancer.

To better protect children，cities are taking action.

On Oct.21，Harbin Education Bureau decided to close primary and junior high schools for two days.

Beijing started a program on Oct.22 which has a warning system with four levels.The red warning is the highest warning level.It means that the next three days will see serious pollution.

When a red warning is issued(发布)，schools will close.

If there's pollution that's not as serious，the Beijing Commission of Education will ask schools to stop PE classes and outdoor activities.

How will students be informed?

"First，the Commission of Education will inform schools online，" Ye Yan，head of Beijing Shijingshanqu Experimental Primary School，told Beijing Times."Then teachers will text students’ parents."

Will the days off affect the study plan?

For students in Harbin who had the long weekend，they would go to school on the next two Saturdays.
