The kiwi lives only in New Zealand. It is a very strange bird because it can't fly. The kiwi is the same size as a chicken. It has no wings or tail. It does not has any feathers like other birds. Its feathers look like hair. Each foot has four toes. Its beak is very long.
A kiwi likes a lot of trees around it. It sleeps during the day because the sunlight hurts its eyes. It can smell things very well. It smells things better than most birds do. The kiwi's eggs are very big.
There are only few kiwis in New Zealand now. People do not often see them. The government says that people cannot kill kiwis. New Zealanders want their kiwis to live.
There is a picture of kiwi on New Zealand money. People from New Zealand are sometimes called 'kiwis'.

10. How do many hearing-impaired people talk?
Hearing-impaired people cannot hear sounds well. How do they “hear” words?
Many hearing-impaired people use sign language. They talk with their hands. Two hearing-impaired people talk to each other. They both use sign language. Sometimes a person who can hear interprets for hearing-impaired people. The person listens to someone talking, and then he or she makes hand signs.
There are two kinds of hand signs. Some hand signs are for whole words. For example, there is one hand sign for the word love. There are hand signs for different actions, things, and ideas. Some of the signs are very easy, for example, the signs for eat, milk, and house. You can see what they mean. Others are more difficult, for instance, star, egg, or week.
The second kind of hand sign is fingerspelling. In fingerspelling, there is a sign for every letter in the alphabet. For example, to fingerspell the word love, a person makes four different signs. It is much slower to fingerspell, but it is useful for signing names and technical words. People can use both kinds of hand signs together.
Each country has its own sign language. For example, American Sign Language (ASL) is very different from British Sign Language. Using sign language is almost like a dance. The whole body talks. Sign languages are beautiful.
不急不急,育儿不是赶路,除了奋斗也要让孩子看看路边的风景滴,娃的人生不仅仅是赶英超美
话说,我不是想占着您的沙发,让大家猛烈滴点评滴,偶只是在想一个问题,让6岁的孩子去读12岁孩子读的书,那么12岁的孩子读啥书呢,12岁的孩子读24岁孩子的书吗?如果娃到了24岁干嘛呢?去做48岁的人该做的事情吗?到娃到了48岁的时候,再干啥呢?虽然说机会永远都在等待有准备的人。。。也许您已经给娃做好到到84岁的准备,可是,这个是小朋友要的生活吗?
其实每个人的起点是一样的,终点也是一样的,但是能看到的风景确是大不相同滴,给孩子一双会发现的眼睛,给孩子对知识的渴求,让尊重小朋友的选择,给孩子一段她所需要的符合孩子年龄的成长经历,别让孩子到了真需要回忆想童年的年龄的时候,长时间无语,这个是才是父母给孩子最好的人生礼物。
ps:我女英文程度不是很好,小雨鹭鹭的粉可以认为我在羡慕嫉妒吧,哈,可以批我的观点,但是,不许说我儿,话说我也是在一相情愿滴希望楼主的儿在6岁的时候,就做6岁儿该做的事情,虽然想法幼稚,但是也是拳拳慈母心,当然,如果是“神童”,那我刚才说的全是废话,只养过普通孩子的娘,,,,飘过。。。。。。。。。。。。
