"We are all going to the 25 ," said the boys. "Let us have the basket." And they took hold of it, one each side. They walked 26 with the heavy basket, but happily. The other day, I saw a little girl stop and 27 a piece of orange peel (皮), which she threw into the dustbin (垃圾桶).

(A)
Humans are just like any other kind of animal. Animals show their feelings with their faces and bodies. If they show their teeth and raise their backs, they’re angry. Humans do many of these things too. You can usually tell whether someone is happy, angry, nervous or proud just by looking at them. We do not always need words.
We only have to look at our pets to see how close animal and human body languages are. When a cat is feeling confident, it will stand very tall and put its nose into the air. Humans do the same thing when they're feeling proud.
Monkeys are very similar to humans. For example, children often put their hands together when they want something. Monkeys use the same gesture to ask for food from other members of their group. As a greeting, monkeys touch their friend’s hand. It's similar to the way we shake hands.
So you see, we can learn a lot about ourselves by studying animal gestures.
