14、land Four Strange Things”Have you ever seen that cows line up? New Zealand is so large. It is impossible for people to milk (挤奶) cows by hand. So the farmers train the leading cow to take the cows to the milking station twice a day. The leading cow has a sensor (传感器) on its head. When it is time for
15、 milking, the sensor warns the leading cow to take the lead. Horses are mainly raised for viewing (观赏) and racing, so the coat color is very important. Wearing sunscreen clothes on horses can avoid the harm from the sun. The clothes on horses are filled with weights that are the same weight of the r
16、ider. When the weights are replaced by the rider during the race, “_” just like the sportsman running with sandbags. Sheep in New Zealand used to have tails. They poop (排便) when theyre born, so grass flies are interested in them. Grass flies lay their eggs in the tails of the baby sheep, causing ill
17、ness and death. Then people tie their tails. As time passes, the sheep become tailless. This improves the survival rate (成活率). New Zealands alpacas (羊驼) were introduced from South America. They are quite different from twohumped camels (双峰驼). An adult alpaca weighs about 55kg to 65kg. Its shape is l
18、ike a sheep. Only one grownup male (雄性) alpaca can be found in each group. It is the leading one. Alpacas are gentle, clever and human.()34.

Theyre usually found in groups near small rocks on the surface of icy glaciers.Normal moss cant form on a glacie
22、r, so scientists believe glacier mice probably form around something small, like a bit of dust(尘土). Staying on the ice too long would kill the moss, so glacier mice form into a ball. It allows them to move around, so that their different parts touch the ice at different times. Some scientists once d
23、id an experiment on glacier mice. They put a small device(装置)inside 30 glacier mice to follow their movements. They learned that the mice traveled about 2.5 centimeters a day. They seemed to move in groups. They moved in the same direction and at about the same speed, almost like a group of animals.
24、 The scientists tested several ideas that might explain how the mice moved together, such as rolling downhill, being blown by the wind, or following the sun. None of these explained the movement of the glacier mice. Glacier mice are still a mystery to scientists. For their next experiment, the scien
25、tists said they would use cameras to take pictures of the movements of the mice over a long period of time. Are you looking forward to the answer?()39. Glacier mice can be about the size of _.
