It may not be easy for dogs to learn new skills, but it’s not a problem for cockatoos. Scientists believe they teach one another. In Sydney, Australia, these birds have learned to open the dustbins (垃圾箱). Then they can enjoy the food inside. At first, only birds in a few places of Sydney could do it. But two years later, birds in 44 places learned the skill. Cockatoos are also skillful at using tools. In the wild, some cockatoos use sticks to get insects from trees. Others use small stones to break open nuts.

Why are the leaves on trees different colors? What makes them change color? Leaves use sunlight, water, and air to make food for the trees. This way of making food is called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is important to animals as well as plants. Some animals eat plants. Other animals eat these animals.
Summer is playtime. For the leaves of many trees, however, it’s work, work, work! The Sun is shining. The leaves are making food for the trees. The trees keep more than enough food deep inside. Leaves are green in summer because they are making food. Leaves also have orange, yellow, or brown colors inside them. During summer, those colors are covered by the green color.
Many places get colder in fall with shorter days and longer nights. Trees get less sunlight, so photosynthesis slows down. Over time, leaves stop making the green chemical. The hidden orange, yellow, and brown colors grow when that happens.
Once it gets cold enough and ice appears at night, the trees drop their leaves. They do this to keep themselves safe. If the leaves turn to ice while still on the trees, the trees can be hurt. Trees that drop their leaves are bare (光秃秃) in winter. They use the food they save in summer to get through the cold days and nights.
Spring comes before long. Ice and snow disappear and the rains come. The Sun shines, and tiny leaves grow from branches. Once again, the leaves use sunlight, water, and air to make food. The cycle begins again.
21. What is photosynthesis according to the passage?
A. It is a way of growing leaves. B. It is a way of changing colors.
C. It is a way for animals to eat plants. D. It is a way to make food for plants.
22. Why are leaves green in summer?
A. Because trees are making food for leaves.
B. Because they are busy making food for trees.
C Because there is no other color inside leaves in summer.
D. Because summer is playtime for the leaves of many trees.
23. What stops leaves from making the green chemical in fall?
A. Less air in fall. B. Less time in fall. C. Less water in fall. D. Less sunlight in fall.
24. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The colors. B. The leaves. C. The trees. D. The animals.
25. What is the best title of the article?
