Chapter 22 look at that bear

Dear Xiaowen: If you have the opportunity to go to Yellowstone Park (Yellowstone, in Wyoming State) or Yosemite Park (Yosemite, in California State) in the future, you can see a big black bear (the commonblack bear) running out and asking you to take pictures.But don't think it's a good model, all bears are short-tempered and get angry quickly! The bear's eyes are small and not very bright, but his nose is very good.It likes to eat sweet things the most, and often goes to stir the honeycomb to grab honey to eat, because its fur is thick, and it is not afraid of bee stings.It also likes to stir up termite nests, which is what Dad admires the most. Dad is not as good at termites as bears are.

Bears are always alone, and the male bear (he-bear) and the female bear (she-bear) are separated after a few months together.The little bear (cub) is brought by its mother.Bears paw (bears paw) is a famous dish in ancient China. Mencius said: "I want fish, and bear's paw is also what I want." There is a lump of meat on the bear's paw, called a pill of bears paw (a pill of bears paw). , It is for the little bear to bite and play. Although the hero is a loner, the thief is also a loner. The bear is a thief and likes to steal people's food. Bears hibernate, but when the weather is warm, they also get up and take a stroll (stroll) before going back to sleep.

Bears climb trees and are experts. The bear is in the forest, and the American forest fire prevention uses a picture of a bear, called Smoky the Bear.There is a very interesting coincidence that Zhongguangxun used it to describe a big fire as "a blazing fire". "Blazing fire" is a fire, a very bright fire. Black bears probably like English, so there are yellow and white UV or Y characters on their chests. Although polar bears are chubby, they run extremely fast and swim very fast.Americans (people) are commonly known as "Uncle Sam" (Uncle Sam), Dad mentioned to you in the letter on September 30 last year, British (people) are commonly known as "John Bull" (John Bull), Soviet Union is commonly known as the bear, refers to the polar bear.

When it comes to bulls and bears, there are other relative meanings in English: Bull means driving up prices and stocks, which means "buying short" in Chinese; Bear is selling, causing prices and stocks to fall, and it means "short selling" in Chinese. There is also a proverb about bears and doing business: Sell the skin before one has killed the bear.The official statement is Never sell the bears skin until you have killed the bear. (Don't sell the bear skin until you have killed the bear). You can compare the other sentence: Count ones chickens before they are hatched. (Count ones chickens before they are hatched.)

This means that it is not stable (for the meaning of stability, see Dad’s letter to you on January 12), so people should slaughter bears before selling their skins, and then count as chickens after hatching eggs. There is a word "罴" in Chinese, which is a brown bear. "Xiong Rumeng" means: "May you bear a son!" (May you bear a son!) If Liugu has a big belly, you can do this congratulate her. The verb of bear has the meaning of giving birth to a child, so if this sentence is translated into English, it will be May you bear a "he-bear.", foreigners will not understand.If Liu Gu didn't know the allusion of "Xiong's dream", she would lose her temper and say, "Xiaowen, what do you mean! Liu Gu is human, why do you expect her to give birth to a bear!"

"Gou Xiong" in Chinese refers to black bears, and "playing with Gou Xiong" is a bear show in a circus (give a bear show), but it also means playing a rogue. dad March 7, 1974 P.S. The letter from you and grandma on the 21st of last month was received yesterday.Your English is improving so fast, it's amazing! How much money did the eighth uncle send in total during the New Year's Day?Ask grandma to open it to dad.
