Giant Pandas（大熊猫） Where they live: Mainly in Sichuan, also in Shaanxi（陕西）and Gansu. Why they are in danger: They don't have enough food. They don't give birth to many babies. Fun facts: •A new baby panda is as small as a rat. •Pandas spend almost the whole day eating! But they only take in 20% of what they eat. Pandas poop（排便）over 12 times a day. •Pandas have been on the earth for about 3 million years. |

Siberian Tigers（东北虎） Where they live: Northeastern China and Russia. Why they are in danger: People hunt them and destroy their habitat. Baby tigers are weak and often die early. Fun facts: A father tiger always leaves his family without saying goodbye. Then the mother tiger takes care of the babies. She is very careful. She hides her babies when she goes out hunting（猎食）, and takes a different way home. |
We have known for a long time that flowers of different plants open and close at different times of a day. Yet no one really understands why flowers open and close like that at special times. The question is not as simple as we might think, as recent experiments have shown. In one experiment, flowers were kept in complete darkness all the time. We might expect that the flowers, without any information about the day, did not open as they usually do. In fact, they continued to open at the usual time. This has shown that they have some special ways of knowing the time.
Their sense of time does not depend on the information from the outside world. It is inside them a kind of "inner clock". This discovery may not seem to be very important. However, it is later found that not just plants but animals including man have this "inner clock" which controls the working of their bodies and influences their activities. Human beings, then, are also influenced by the mysterious power. Whether we wish or not, it affects such things in our life as our need for sleep or food.
