One Friday morning in San Francisco, Robert Parley, a baby, was sleeping in his bed. Cody, a dog, was sleeping on the floor beside the baby’s bed. Mrs Parley was busy with her housework. Suddenly an earthquake made the house shake.
Mrs Parley tried to reach the baby’s room, but the house broke into two, dropping her to the first floor and leaving the baby’s bed hanging (悬挂) on the edge (边缘) of the second floor. Mrs Parley tried to climb up to the second floor, but she couldn’t because she had broken her leg. She shouted to Cody to get the baby.
The dog jumped into little Robert’s bed and carefully took the baby in his mouth. The dog then jumped out of the bed with the baby, just as the bed crashed to the first floor.
Mrs Parley called the police and half an hour later, they climbed up to the second floor to get the dog and the baby. They were all well at last. It makes people believe that a dog is man’s best friend.

Last week, Chicago became the first city in the US to join the “Lights Out Plan”. People turned off the lights in the city’s tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring.
Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them as stars. This means they can not find the right way to go home.
This month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons, too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same “house” they lived in last year, so they fly back there.
There are about 9,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate(迁徙). Some birds can fly a very long way. Sometimes they fly to other countries. We have fewer birds today because there are fewer places for birds. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案。
