    If you enjoy reading, don't miss Shakespeare and Company when you visit Paris. It's a famous English-language bookstore. An American, Sylvia Beach, opened the first Shakespeare and Company in history in 1919. She did more than selling books. Her bookstore was also a library, and she even had beds for writers visiting there. Ms Beach was not only kind to people but also good at choosing books, so her bookstore was often visited by writers like Ernest Hemingway and James Joyce. But in 1941, after the Germans took power in Paris, Ms Beach had to close her bookstore.

      In 1951, another American, George Whitman, opened another English-language bookstore, Librairie Mistral, in Paris. Since then, just as Ms Beach did, Mr Whitman had also made his bookstore a library for people to borrow books, and a free hotel for writers to stay in. To remember Ms Beach, Mr Whitman changed the name of his bookstore to Shakespeare and Company in 1964, two years after Ms Beach died.

    Birds are becoming popular as pets. But some owners of birds don't know how to communicate with their pets. Therefore, they don't know what their pets need or want. Owners can learn how to read the body language of a bird, including movements of the wings, the tail and the beak(喙).

      Wings

      A bird can communicate with others through the use of its wings. A bird may lift or open its wings as a sign of happiness. But if the bird starts to open and to close its wings, it may express anger or pain. If a bird fails to fold its wings against its body, and instead lets them hang by its side, it may be ill.

      Tail

      Birds often use their tail feathers to communicate, so an understanding of this behavior will help the owners. Happiness is expressed by tail movements, such as up and down. However, if a bird fans its tail feathers out, it is usually a way to show anger.

      Beak

    While a bird's beak is used mainly for eating, the bird may also communicate by using beak movements. For example, a bird may click its beak once as a greeting, and several clicks can be taken as a warning. Birds may sometimes bite, but it is often difficult to find out the reason behind this — birds bite as a way to protect their homes, to show anger or to express fear.


    1. (1) If a bird lets its wings hang by its side, it may be      .

      A . happy         B . angry   C . ill     D . fearful
    2. (2) When a bird is happy, it may NOT ___________.

      A . open its wings     B . lift its head       C . move its tail up and down    D . fan its tail feathers out
    3. (3) How many times may a bird click its beak when it wants to say hello to someone?

      A . One time. B . Two times.   C . Three times.   D . More than three times.
    4. (4) Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

      A . A bird can give out information through its wings, tail and beak.      B . A bird will not bite if it fears.   C . A bird may warn others by clicking its beak several times.   D . A bird opens and closes its wings to express anger or pain.
    5. (5) What is the main idea of this passage?

      A . What a happy bird is like. B . How to keep a bird as a pet. C . How to read a bird's body language.   D . Birds are people's friends.
