26、Go fly a kite

Learning how to fly a kite is simple and flying kites can be a fun form of exercise.

Of course, the first thing you need is a kite and a ball of string (线). 【1】 Then wait for a windy day.

When the perfect day arrives, find an open space, such as field. 【2】

Before flying your kite, find out which way the wind is blowing. 【3】 To begin flying your kite, stand with your back to the wind and hold the kite up so the wind can catch it. If the day is not very windy, you may need to get your kite started by running.

Flying kite is a great way to spend a windy afternoon. If you follow these steps carefully, you will have something more fun to do than sitting inside and watching TV. So on the next windy day, get up off the sofa. Go fly a kite!

29、The Matschie's tree kangaroo (袋鼠)is one of 10 species of tree kangaroos, all of which are endangered. A tree kangaroo is about the size of a raccoon (浣熊) and weighs around 19 pounds. They live in the high canopy (树) of the rainforest, about 100 to 150 feet in the air. The Matschie's tree kangaroo is orange and brown with a face that looks like a teddy bear. They car jump 60 feet to the ground from trees without getting hurt.

In 1996, Dr. Lisa Dabek helped found the Tree Kangaroo Conservation Program (TKCP). Now, 16 years later, though still endangered, the population of the Matschie's tree kangaroo is under control. Much of the success is because of the work of Dabek, Senior Conservation Scientist at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, Washington, and Director of the TKCP.

According to Dabek, the TKCP needed to cooperate (合作) with the local clans (部落), some of whom kill tree kangaroos for food or other reasons. Dabek said, "We and the clans reached an agreement. The clans would set aside a part of their land as a 'no hunting area'. But they could continue to hunt on their other land. In total they set aside 180,000 acres of land. They called this a ‘Wildlife Bank’.”

Animal behavior has always been interesting to Dr. Dabek. She said, "When I was 8 years old, a friend and I wrote down what we wanted to be when we grew up and put it inside an envelope to open when we were teenagers. When I opened it I was reminded that I wanted to be an animal trainer. And that is kind of what I am today.”
