Many people think swans are very beautiful and romantic (浪漫的). They appear in songs, stories and even dances. But are swans really as sweet as we think?

People say swans are full of love because they stay with the same partner (伴侣) for life. But swans don’t do this for love, Instead, they stay together for babies and safety (安全). It also means they don’t have to find a new partner every year. Maybe they are not so romantic at all! Swans also look very graceful (优雅的) when they float (漂浮) on the water. People often describe some girls as graceful swans. But swans can be scary too! They will make loud sounds and open their wings when they feel danger. So it’s best not to get too close! More interestingly, the English phrase “black swan” means an unexpected (预想不到的) event. That’s because people used to think all swans were white. So when black swans were found, everyone was surprised! Swans may not be exactly what we think, but that’s what makes them so amazing!

21. Swans stay with the same partner only because of love.

22. Staying together helps swans to keep safe.

23. Swans look graceful even when they are in danger.

24. People were surprised when they first found black swans.

25. The text mainly talks about interesting facts about swans.
