　　I wonder if there is any girl or boy who does not like to see a rainbow(彩虹)in the sky．It is so beautiful．

　　There is a story, saying that whenever you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a pot of gold．Of course it is not true．Neither you could find the pot of gold, nor would you ever find its end．No matter how far you run, it always seems far away．

　　A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower．It is only the effect(结果)of light shining on raindrops．The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colours which we see．

　　It is called a rainbow perhaps because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow(弓)．

　　That is why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky．We see rainbows only when there is rain in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds．Every rainbow has many colours in the same order．The first or the top colours is always red, next comes orange, then green, and last of all, blue．A rainbow is, indeed one of the wonders of nature．

　　Cats are the most popular pets among Americans．So it is not surprising there are many expressions about cats．Do you know any of them? Now let me introduce some to you．

　　Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries．If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself, we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary．

　　Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches．So if you play cat and mouse with someone, you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person．For example, a child might offer something sweet to her little brother, and then take it away when he reaches for it．

　　A cat often catches a small animal and presents it to its owner．The saying that looks like something the cat dragged(拖动)in describes something in bad condition．

　　A fat cat is a person with a lot of money．

　　There are many other expressions about cats in America．How interesting! Which kind of cat are you, or which kind would you like to be?
