Gwondo was a trainer of dogs. He would go out every day with his dogs, to1 them how to catch animals so all his tribe(部落) could eat.
Wherever Gwondo went, his tribe could see him away in the distance 2 his white hair would shine in the sunlight. The tribe 3would say to their children, "See, there is Gwondo and his dogs, searching for 4 for us all. " Gwondo went out hunting every day and always came 5 with much food. And all were very happy.
Now Gwondo grew 6 and as all humans do, one day he died. The tribe felt sad and cried many days and many nights 7 one day the elders called to their children, " You have cried enough for Gwondo. Now it is time to 8 living. Go down to the beach and be happy."
The children ran down to the beach and looked out to sea. 9, they all looked at each other, then turned and ran back to their elders, 10, "Come quickly. Gwondo, he is back with us. He is out in the sea. "The elders hurried to the 11 and said, "Yes! It is Gwondo back! He is now a dolphin and lives in the sea. "
Now whenever you see 12 dolphins in the sea, look for the big old dolphin. You will know him because he has a large white fin on 13 back. He is Gwondo and he is training the young dolphins to chase(追逐) 14 close to the beach so that his tribe can catch them.

For most of people in the west，Valentine's Day(情人节) ends on February 15，but here in Japan it's not quite over until March 15.March 14—exactly one month after Valentine's Day—is White Day in Japan.
To really understand what White Day is all about，you have to understand what Valentine's Day in Japan is like. Japanese Valentine's Day is all about men getting presents. Japanese women are usually too shy to show their love，though it might not be true today. Valentine's Day is a great chance to let women show their feelings. Men should return gifts to women on White Day.
On both days，chocolate is the gift of choice. More often，the colour of the chocolate is white because of the name of the day. You can also buy flowers，candy，or cookies.
Does it sound good to you? Don't get too excited when you get chocolate from Japanese girls! They give chocolate not only to their loved ones，but also to men such as bosses (老板) and male(男性的) friends.
The Japanese first celebrated White Day in 1978.Now it is also celebrated in South Korea and Taiwan，China.
The Natural History Museum is close to the Science Museum in South Kensington, London. It houses the largest natural history collection in the world. Seventy million specimens(标本) are kept there, and many of them are displayed(显示) using the latest interactive technology. For example, you can experience an earthquake and meet a life-size blue whale face to face.
The collection started in 1752 and grew as more and more explorers and scientists left their collections to the museum. In the mid-19th century, a new museum building was designed to house it. The building opened in 1881 is interesting in itself, because all of the decorations are related to natural history topics.
As well as the curators who look after the museum, there are also 300 scientists working there on different aspects of the natural world, so it is a real, living museum.
Like all of London's main museums, entrance is free, except for special exhibitions, and the opening hours are generous.
