It came as a real shock(震惊) to find out that chickens could tell what color they were eating.
I picked up a package of mixed greens one day. I anxiously brought it home and immmediately took a trip out to the chicken house to deliver(递送) it. I knew the girls would welcome the treat!
My chickens have their regular gravity-type feeder for their grain(谷物), and I have a large plastic dog dish that I use for those special treats.
I emptied the bag of greens into the dog dish and stood back, as I usually do, to watch for a minute. I began to notice that the chickens were eating the green lettuce(莴苣)but were leaving the red leaves. Ithoughti must be mistaken, but I didn’t have time to find out for sure right then.
When I went back a short time later, the dish was empty except for the red leaves. The chickens didn’t eat them with the red leaves. It took several hours, but they finally did eat it. I guess if they had their druther(偏爱), they’d choose for green leaves only. Red leaves only satisfy in the absence of greens.

You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. 61But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates?
62If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to leam to live happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why he does things difl'erently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.
You need to remember an old saying, 63“Treat others how vou want to be treated.” If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it.64现在,没有人要求你改变自己。 Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is imponant to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s life easier.65学会接受能力兴趣与自己不同的人。The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.
