    A rabbit is running into his hole. You may ask, “What happened?”
    Well, when a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away. Its tail moves up and down as it runs. When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they ran, too. They know there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
    Many other animals use this kind of language. When a bee finds some food, it goes back to his home. It can’t tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.
    But animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for examples, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs(发出呼噜呼噜的声音) when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning.
    But human beings have something that no animals have---- a large number of words about things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other information to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel. By writing words down we can remind ourselves of the things that have happened, or send messages to people far away. No animals can do this. No animals has the wonderful power of language.
    No one knows how man learned to make words. Somehow he learned to make them. As centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language.
    People in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. A very large English dictionary, for examples, contains four or five hundred thousand words. But we don’t know all these. The words we know are called vocabulary. We should try to make our vocabulary larger. Read as many books as possible. When we met a new word, look it up in the dictionary. A dictionary is the most useful book.

    Chris Jones recently completed a very unusual journey. Our reporter Mary Owen met him at
    his home in the south of London and be told her all about the trip.
    Reporter: What gave you the idea to make a trip around India on an elephant, Chris?
    Chris: Well, it all started the idea two years ago when I was planning a trip to India. I visited a
    photo exhibition of elephants and I realized that the only enjoyable way to make a trip around
    India was on an elephant.
    Reporter: What did you do next?
    Chris: I flew to New Delhi and started looking for an elephant, I needed an elephant trained to
    carry people. I didn’t know anything about elephants, so I asked an expert(专家) for help. He
    taught me how to ride an elephant. He also helped me find an elephant.
    Reporter: How long did it take to find a suitable elephant?
    Chris: Not too long. I bought a female elephant called Tara for about 6, 000 dollars.
    Reporter: Can you tell me about the journey?
    Chris: Tara and I set off from New Delhi a week later. We were going to Sonepur in northern
    India. There is a big elephant market there and I could sell Tara easily. And what a ride! Elephants
    can travel at about 6 miles an hour and Sonepur is more than 1, 200 km away. It took us 64 days to
    complete the journey.
    Reporter: Did you have any problems on your journey?
    Chris: Yes, a few. But nothing serious. On the third day, Tara hurt her foot. Btu that got better
    quickly. Also, there was a lot of heavy rain during the first week and we got very wet!
    Reporter: What happened when you reached Sonepur?
    Chris: My plan was to sell Tara. But I was very fond of her. I couldn’t take her back to Britain
    and I didn’t want to sell her at the market. I happened to meet some people who wanted an
    elephant for their national park in southern India. I knew that Tara would be safe with them, so I
    gave her to them. I was very sad to say goodbye.

    I have always been interested in making things. When I was a child, I enjoyed painting, but I also liked malting things out of day. I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen.
    That may be why I went to art school four years later. But I studied painting at first, not pottery. I like being a potter because I like to work with my hands and feel the clay.  I’m happy working by myself and being near my home.  I don’t like mass-produced things, for they are made by machines and are all the same. I think crafts(手工艺) are very important and crafts persons(手艺人)make things cleverly with hands. They make our lives colorful. When I left school, I got some money.  I hope to become a full-time craftswoman. This workplace is small, but I wish tot: move to a larger one next year.
    1. The writer went to the art school at the age of___________
