2. 在波兰，有一座神秘的弯曲森林。 在那里，400多棵松树的树干全都弯曲了90度…… The Crooked Forest In Poland, there is a forest that could have come from a fairy tale. It is the Crooked Forest. It has more than 400 pine trees. All the trees are bent to the north.

3. The trees were planted around 1930. Many people think that they were bent in this shape on purpose. Pine is a very durable wood. The pine trees may have been used to make the ribs for boats or the yokes for ploughs. But before they could be cut down, the Second World War broke out. So why the trees were planted like that is still a mystery.

14. Mostly, we eat the fruits of the plant, and those fruits have seeds inside. Sometimes we can eat the seeds, like when we eat cucumbers; sometimes we don’t like to eat the seeds, like when we eat grapes.

27. 盛夏，当蚂蚁在辛勤地搬运粮食时， 蚱蜢却在欢乐地拉着小提琴…… The Ant and the Grasshopper

28. One summer day, a Grasshopper was singing and playing his violin happily. He saw an Ant passing by. The Ant was carrying heavy corn to his home. “Come and sing with me,” the Grasshopper said. “Let’s have fun together.” “I must store food for the winter,” said the Ant. “And I advise you to do the same.”

29. >> 文化链接： 《蚂蚁与蚱蜢》选自古希腊民间故事集《伊索寓言》。《伊索寓言》广泛采用拟人化手法，以动物为喻，教人处世和做人的道理，故文中动物的英文名称皆为首字大写。 “Don’t worry. The winter is still very far away,” said the Grasshopper, laughing at the Ant. But the Ant wouldn’t listen and kept working hard. When the winter came, the hungry Grasshopper went to the Ant’s house and begged for some food. “If you had listened to me in summer, you would not be in need now. I’m afraid there is no more food for you,” the Ant said and shut the door.
