           Like many 13-month-olds,Byron knows a few simple words: mama,dada,and the sound ba for ball,baby,and bottle. But how can he 1 his mother about the lions at the zoo,or the piano at Grandma's house? 2 for Byron,his mom has helped him find a(n) 3 to describe these interesting 4 .

With these and 20 other 10 

available for use,Byron is able to be an active partner in 11  with the important people in his life.

           Baby signs make life with a baby 12 and more fun: Children are less likely to become frustrated,for example,13 they can tell you what they want by using signs for “bottle” and “cold." One baby invented a sign for “afraid”-patting(輕拍) on his chest repeatedly. 14 a dog frightened him,he would add the panting (喘氣) 15 he had learned for “dog” to make the 16 even clearer and easier to understand. 17,his family could 18 provide exactly the reassurance (安心) he needed: “It's okay,Zack. The doggy is behind the fence.”

           Every day hundreds of people pass through the San Francisco Ferry Building,a place where a variety of products and services are available. The San Francisco Ferry Building is the place where commuters catch their ferries at. It is also a place whose people come to walk and watch the activity on the bay. The area in which people shop for food is also where people can find restaurants and shops.

           The Ferry Building began to be built at a time in 1875 there were no bridges. People had to take a train to the Berkeley or Oakland ferry terminals,there they would catch a ferry to San Francisco. When the Bay Bridge opened in 1936,the Ferry Building became an unnecessary place in that the ferries were left and forgotten. In the 1970s,when the traffic on the bridge made the commute difficult,the ferry boat service resumed. Now the Ferry Building serves as an activity center which San Franciscans shop,eat,catch transportation,and relax near the water.
