       There is always something that we can never forget. And it can really change our life. 
       Time is important for everyone. It organizes our everyday moments. However, ①before I received
a watch from my father, time never had any importance in my life. It organized my life and made me more
responsible. 
       I received this gift on a Sunday. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to pick up Uncle Jim and take
him to my father’s house. However, I was late because I hung out with my friends. Later on that day,
around 11:00 am, I remembered my uncle and went to the airport to meet him, but I was too late. He had
left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house. 
       I got to my father’s house at 2:00 pm that day. ② Looking at my father’s face, I felt ashamed
(羞愧的) at that moment. My father asked me to sit next to him and he handed me this watch as a gift.
Then he said, "Bob, did you have fun with your friends today?" "Yes, Father, and I’m sorry about not
picking up Uncle Jim," I replied. He then said, "What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry
for your actions. I think you should learn something from it, and this watch will be a reminder for you in
your future life." ③ The watch is very important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson
that I learned from it. 
       Today I still remember my father’s words"Respect time and never be late for anything."

         There is a zoo mour city. My parents often take me there on holidays. I like animals. I have a lot of
toy animals in my room. In the zoo, I can see tigers, elephants, monkeys, pandas , bears , snakes(蛇) and many other animals. Some animals are friendly, but some are not. Tigers, bears and some snakes are dangerous(危險). That is why they have to stay in cages. But I don't think it's good for animals to stay in cages. They should be free(自由). The animals in cages can't be    happy.
        Tigers usually live in forests and mountains. They can run very fast. They catch and eat small animals
 like rabbits (兔子)and deer(鹿),but now they live in small rooms. They have nothing to do every day. So
they walk round and round in the cages, and they want to get out. When they are tired(累了),they sleep.
 I feel(感到)sorry for them.
        I think the most interesting animal in the zoo is the dolphin. I like watching them swim and jump. They swim fast and they jump very high. They can play with a ball. They can stand up and walk on water! They are very  friendly  to  people.  If you fall into(掉進(jìn))the water and can't swim,  they may (可能)come up to
help you.

根據(jù)課文內(nèi)容判斷正(T)誤(F).
(     )1. The writer(作者)likes animals very much.
(     )2. He often goes to the zoo on holidays.
(     )3. All the animals are friendly.
(     )4. Dolphins are good at swimming.
(     )5. The writer thinks the dolphins are the most interesting.
