18．　　It was Sunday and Tom was staying home. After breakfast, he went out into the garden and played quietly by himself. There were no kids around and he always played alone quietly. He played with Bobby, the dog. He climbed up and down the tree. Sometimes a bird would come down to stand on top of the doghouse. Then Tom would have the greatest fun by throwing a stone or something at it. Though he never made it, he really liked doing this kind of things.
　　Then Tom had been in the garden for half an hour. Suddenly a crack sound was heard and the little boy began crying.
　　"What's the matter, Tom?" his mother looked through the kitchen window.
　　Tom ran into the kitchen.
　　"Mum," he sobbed, "I broke Bobby's plate, I didn't know it was so easily broken."
　　His mother put her arms round him and said, "Don't feel too bad, Tom. We have other plates for Bobby. But how did you break that one?"
　　"I threw this at a bird but missed, and it went straight to the plate."
　　In Tom's hand was his father's gold watch!

20．　　Nature has created many ways to protect animals' eyes. The most common protection is the eyelid (眼睑) — a fold of skin that closes over the eye, protecting it from hurt. Eyelashes are useful for keeping out dirt and other things, and tears wash away any small pieces that get through the other defenses.
　　Some animals, including most birds, have three eyelids. The upper and lower eyelids act like human eyelids and keep out little tree branches, dirt, and sand. The third eyelid, however, is a semitransparent tissue(半透明组织) that crosses over the eye from the inside corner to the outside corner. Because of this, birds hardly have to blink. They close their eyes only when they go to sleep. For ducks, this third eyelid serves as an underwater mask that helps the ducks find food.
　　Most fish and snakes have no eyelids at all. Instead, a hard glassy covering protects their eyes. For fish, water sweeps away dirt from the covering. And a snake's eyesight (视力) is usually so bad that a little dirt obscuring (使模糊) its vision does not trouble it greatly.
　　Eyelashes protect the eye by keeping it from strong light. They also act like mini brushes to remove dirt. Camels have eyelashes that are four inches long to protect their eyes from wind﹣blown sand in the desert.

21．　　Think about what you like to wear on the weekend. You probably like to put on a pair of blue jeans. At any moment, about half of the world's people are wearing jeans. But according to a new study, our love for jeans may be bad for Earth. Denim(牛仔布) may be putting some sea animals in danger.
　　Every time we wash our jeans, very small bits of denim will flow out of our washing machines, down into the rivers, lakes and oceans.
　　You might wonder:Isn't denim made of cotton, a natural material?How can it become a danger to nature?Well, when people make jeans, denim is treated with many kinds of man-made chemicals (化学物质). Some improve its durability. A pair of jeans may be worm for many years. Others give jeans their blue color. It makes jeans fashionable.
　　Scientists studied the Great Lakes in America and the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada. They found denim waste in all of the samples(样本). In the study, the scientists also washed jeans to see how many bits of denim each pair would drop each time to wash. The answer was terrible:About 50, 000. Not all of them make their way into the environment. Some good plants hold back 83 to 99 percent of them. This may sound pretty good. However, one percent of 50, 000 bits are still 500 per wash. Now think about the number of jeans around the world and the times each of them gets washed.
　　Does this mean we shouldn't wear jeans?Probably not. "We need to buy fewer jeans and only wash them when we truly need to do it, says Sam Athey, one of the scientists. "You don't need to wash your jeans after wearing them only several times."
