Oil is so important that it is sometimes called “black gold”．Almost half our energy comes from oil．We use it to run our cars and factories and to heat our homes, offices and schools．Many everyday things are made from oil．Your shirt may have oil in the material．The soap you wash your hands with might also be made from oil．Your favorite plastic toy is made from oil．

Oil is hard to find, because it is trapped（陷入）deep under the earth．Once the only way people knew there was oil someplace was if it leaked（滲漏）out of the ground．Today, however, we have many ways of finding oil．One tool measure（測量）the pull of gravity（引力）．Places where gravity is weaker are more, likely to have oil．Another tool measures sound waves．Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds．We can use them to find the rocks that have oil in them．

We need a lot of oil．a(chǎn)nd we ale using up the oil wells we know about．Soon we must find new ways of looking for this “black gold”．

A dog can’t speak any words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. Sometimes it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely, and you can find out its feelings. You can see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down. When a dog is afraid, it may run away. When you are angry with other people, you stare at(凝視) them. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.
Do you feel guilty (有罪的) when you have done something wrong? Dogs can feel guilty, too. Sometimes when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he has done something wrong.
Dogs need love and attention (關(guān)心). Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs snaps(撕咬)if they don’t get enough attention.
You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Take it for a walk. Don’t order（命令） it round too much. Try not to punish (懲罰) it. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do. Talk to a dog, and it will talk to you.
【小題1】When a dog is afraid, it may _______.
