看群雁南飞, 听百鸟欢唱。我们常常吟诵着“春眠不觉晓, 处处闻啼鸟”; 惋惜着“无可奈何花落去, 似曾相识燕归来”; 更悲叹着“千山鸟飞绝, 万径人踪灭”! 鸟儿, 美丽的生灵, 迫切需要人类的保护。让我们一起学习下面的谚语!
1. The early bird gets the worm①. 早起的鸟儿有虫吃。

Dear Mr Black,
I’d like to join the Birdwatching Society. I’m Timmy from Class 3, Grade 8. I’m interested in learning about different kinds of birds. My favourite subjects are science and biology.
Last Saturday Bill and I went to Yancheng Nature Reserve. It’s home to different kinds of birds. Some live there all year round, while some only go there for a short stay. We enjoyed some kinds of birds including rare birds. We had a good time.
I think birds are part of our lives. Our government has made laws to protect the birds. I decide to help count and describe the birds.
You can call me at 0515-87215562 or e-mail me at Timmy@.
Yours sincerely,
Timmy

【微阅读】
看群雁南飞, 听百鸟欢唱。我们常常吟诵着“春眠不觉晓, 处处闻啼鸟”; 惋惜着“无可奈何花落去, 似曾相识燕归来”; 更悲叹着“千山鸟飞绝, 万径人踪灭”! 鸟儿, 美丽的生灵, 迫切需要人类的保护。让我们一起学习下面的谚语!
1. The early bird gets the worm①. 早起的鸟儿有虫吃。
2. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush②.
二鸟在林, 不如一鸟在手。
3. Birds of a feather flock③ together. 物以类聚, 人以群分。
4. Birds in their little nests agree. 同巢之鸟心儿齐。
5. Fine feathers make fine birds. 人靠衣装马靠鞍。
6. A bird is known by its note, and a man by his talk.
听音识鸟, 闻言识人。
7. Each bird loves to hear himself sing. 孤芳自赏。
8. Kill two birds with one stone④. 一石二鸟。
