Rico is a dog who lives in Germany(德国). His owners trained him from a young age to find his toys. When they say the name of a certain toy, Rico can find it. In fact, he seems to know the names of 200 toys!
Some researchers in Germany wanted to test Rico. They put his toys in a room and then told him to go in the room and find a certain toy. Since nobody was in the room with Rico, he had no help from anyone finding the right toy. The researchers did this test forty times. Rico found the right toy thirty-seven times!
Then the researchers tried something else. They put seven of Rico’s toys in the room together with one new toy that Rico had never seen before. Then they told Rico to go into the room and get the new toy. This new toy had a name Rico had never heard before. Rico found the right toy seven out of ten times!
Researchers cannot really say that Rico knows words or language. However, these tests seem to show that Rico can think about what he hears and think about what he knows. In fact, Rico seems to think and remember things as well as a three-year-old child.
From these tests, animal researchers know one thing for sure. Rico has given them a lot to think about.

My parents taught me not to waste food. My mum always found ways to make leftovers（剩余食物） taste good. I went to YiLan to learn about some of their special food. As I was there, I learned about the food and the history of the area. I learned that they don’t waste food, either, and they use leftovers! 
Many years ago, there was not enough food for everyone. People learned to cook and eat almost everything. They had to think of ways to make special dishes. One of these dishes is kao zha.It  made  with leftovers like
meat, soup, oil and fat. That might not sound very good, but it does taste good.
Today, kao zha is a special dish at big banquets (宴会).  Another famous dish is called zao bing.
It’s made with fruit, meat and other things. I really liked it! But I didn’t want to eat too much.  It has a
lot of fat in it. I smelled something burning and I saw smoke, so I found another special food of the YiLan area  duck  meat. The duck meat is put in a big oven (炉) to cook it. Smoke keeps the meat fresh.   I don’t
usually eat meat, but this duck meat was delicious! It tasted sweet. YiLan is a great place with delicious food. I hope I can come back again!
