We all, at one time or another, have pretended to be a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favorite of us have done this in the privacy of our own room when we were kids and as adults, in the privacy of our ? I love to do that when I drive! 1 turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along too and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the of the time, I do this on my way to work.
Yes, that is true, I will be in my nice work clothes, jamming while driving or stopped at a traffic light I get weird(古怪的))looks from some people and others onally, I love to get lost in the rhythm of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!
The definition for the word silly, according to the dictionary is: stupid, foolish and nonsensical.I know many people do not want to look they walk around all serious, which in all honesty, is foolish!
No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect.I don't care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal (節儉的), how rich, and so one is perfect! So why pretend to be something you are not?
Life is so never know when this beautiful journey will be over, so why waste a single second on being so full of rigidity(呆板)? Here is a quote by Souza, that I think says it all and is a great recipe for life:
"Dance as though no one is watching you,
Love as though you have never been hurt before,
Sing as though no one can hear you,
Live as though heaven is on earth."
When we were kids, we had no idea of what limitations were and we had no care in d so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to ver, as we grew up, we lost that childlike innocence.
So don't lose the child that still lives within next time you feel down, go turn on your favorite song, and sing and dance along like there is no watch something that makes you hter is the best medicine to whatever ails (使痛苦) you and nothing is better than laughing so hard that your stomach t me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn't want to feel good?

repeats the words of songs. sings songs on his way to work.
dances in his own home. shares music with other drivers.
does the writer think of the people who look very serious?
are honest. are educated.
are perfect. are silly.
writer quotes Souza to show that____.
is a beautiful journey is full of rigidity
is to be treasured is a great recipe
h of the following would be the best title for the text?
Innocence of Being a Child Importance of Being Silly
One Is Perfect Is Short

Squirrels often communicate with whistles, chirps and chucks, which sound like the word “chuck”tles and chirps are like the sounds that many birds scientists have translated some of their squirrel-speak.
Hare, a professor of zoology at the University of Maniloha in Winnipeg, and his team managed to record squirrels' alarm researchers studied the sounds and then played them back to 60 wild squirrels, which the scientists approached individually with a video recorder to capture(抓拍)their squirrels lifted their heads up and t(警惕的)tures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into caves.
"In effect then, whistles that mix with chucks say 'there's an enemy of average threat that's here', and whistles without chucks say 'there's an enemy of seemingly average threat around here somewhere', while pure chirps say, 'I'm hiding here because there's an immediate danger.' " Hare overy News.
Hare and some other researchers believe such sounds arc part of an advanced language that develops just as all other communication systems.
Although squirrels risk their lives when they call out to warn others of threats, other squirrels might admire this behaviour, thus increasingly the caller’s social status, like humans who look up to heroes. Hare added that other animals, such as birds, probably understand at least some squirrel language, since they also may benefit from the alarm calls.
In fact, another Canadian study found that deep-voiced, black-capped chickadees have their own language rding to certain research, there are a lot of tidings in chickadees' calls, such as directing fellows' activities, keeping in contact between mates, and raising alarms.
While chickadees and other birds are often welcomed into gardens by homeowners, squirrels are frequently viewed as pests(害獸). Hare wishes a greater understanding of the complex social lives and communication systems of squirrels will provide “hope that humans will gain a greater appreciation and stop doing harm to these animals”.
