Milk Drinking
1 People everywhere drink milk.Most people drink cows’ milk. In different parts of the world some people also use the milk of goats,buffaloes,sheep,horses, donkeys,camels,zebras, or reindeer.
2 Milk has most things needed for helping people grow and keep well. Its three main parts are water,fatty matter,and other matter. These three food parts are easily used by the body.They build bones,teeth,and blood.They make the skin clear and the eyes bright,and they help repair worn-out or hurt body parts.
3 Many animals feed their newly born babies milk from the mothers’ own bodies.It takes the place of the blood that carried food to the babies before they were born.In this way milk works like blood.But it doesn’t have the same red color.
4 Cows’ milk is used mainly as a food.When it is used fresh it is first heated to kill germs.Then it is put into bottles or hard paper boxes.Some milk is canned or dried.This allows it to be kept longer.This means you can keep it in your house for many months.If you need milk every day,you just open a can or package.Some people like this better than going to the store every day.Milk is also made into buttermilk, cheese,butter,ice cream,and other foods.Foods made from milk are called dairy foods.
5 Parts of milk are made into many things that have nothing to do with food.Among these are cold-water paints,face creams,buttons,combs,knife and brush handles medicines,and toys.It has many more uses than most people ever dream of.Think of that the next time you drink a glass of milk.

A Loyal Dog
Williams had an intelligent dog named Prince. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate(證明) his abilities.
When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams daily paper but with a packet of Williams' favorite tobacco. A gun dog by breed, Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved(進化) for the safe carrying of hunted creatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark. Williams was a railway man, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered. A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter.
One evening he slipped and fell on the icy road somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William’s hand. Very muddy and wet through, the little case still contained fifty-three pounds, Williams’driving license and a few other papers. Where the dog had found it no one could tell, but found it he had and recognized it probably by the faint oily smell on the worn leather.
