11、lives since.Ducklings naturally follow their mother around, and since the man was the one who acted as their mother, these birds follow him everywhere, even up a mountain.

18、imals used in research around the world each year.Europe, on the whole, has the worlds most restrictive laws on animal experiments. Even so, its scientists use some 12 million animals a year, most of them mice and rats, for medical research. Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are
19、 used in research in America each year. But that is misleading.

Alternatives to animal testing, such as using human tissue or computer models, are now strongly recommended.
