阅读短文,回答下列问题。
When you think of winter, which word comes to your mind? Cold, dark, snow, or ice? When the weather turns terrible, we can stay in warm houses and enjoy nice food, but wild animals may not have this fun. So how do animals spend the long cold winter months?
Some animals make journeys to warmer places once a year. We call this the migration. They sometimes travel thousands of miles to reach their winter home. Caribou(北美驯鹿) have one of the longest land migrations, travelling over 3,000 kilometres! But not all migrations are as long as the example. Some birds make shorter migrations from high mountains to lower lands to find better places with less snow and more food. This type of migration is about changes in height.
If winter makes you want to sleep, you’re not alone. Some animals hibernate for part or all of winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. There are a few different types of hibernation. For example, a bear will eat a lot of food to build up fat reserves. During hibernation, its body temperature drops, and its heart beats more slowly. A bear’s heartbeat may drop from around 55 beats per minute to just 9 beats. The bear can sleep for months without eating or drinking, using its fat for energy.
Instead of going to warmer places or sleeping through winter, some animals spend winter by changing bodies with seasons. Some animals may grow a thicker and warmer winter coat.
What about you? Will your mind, body or action change in wintertime? Do you go to a warmer place for holiday or just stay at your comfortable home? Or maybe you really enjoy taking part in some outdoor activities in winter. No matter how you like to spend winter, spring is just around the corner.
1. How far do caribou travel to spend winter?
2. When a bear hibernates, what changes happen to its body?
3. Will you spend winter staying at home or going outside to have fun? Why?

阅读短文，回答下列问题。
当你想到冬天时，哪个词会出现在你的脑海中？寒冷、黑暗、雪还是冰？当天气变得糟糕时，我们可以待在温暖的房子里，享用美味的食物，但野生动物可能就没有这种乐趣了。那么动物们是如何度过漫长寒冷的冬季的呢？
一些动物每年都会前往更温暖的地方。我们把这种行为称为迁徙。它们有时会跋涉数千英里去到达它们的冬季栖息地。北美驯鹿有着最长的陆地迁徙之一，行程超过3000公里！但并不是所有的迁徙都有这么长。一些鸟类会进行较短距离的迁徙，从高山到低地，以找到雪更少、食物更多的更好地方。这种类型的迁徙与海拔的变化有关。
如果冬天让你想睡觉，你并不孤单。一些动物会在冬季的部分时间或整个冬季冬眠。这是一种特殊的、深度的睡眠。冬眠有几种不同的类型。例如，一只熊会吃很多食物来积累脂肪储备。在冬眠期间，它的体温会下降，心跳会变得更慢。一只熊的心跳可能会从每分钟约55次下降到仅9次。熊可以在不吃不喝的情况下睡上几个月，靠它的脂肪来提供能量。
有些动物既不前往温暖的地方，也不通过睡觉来度过冬天，而是通过随季节改变自身来度过冬天。一些动物可能会长出更厚、更保暖的冬毛。
你呢？在冬天，你的思想、身体或行动会发生变化吗？你会去一个更温暖的地方度假，还是就待在舒适的家里？或者也许你真的很喜欢在冬天参加一些户外活动。无论你喜欢如何度过冬天，春天都即将来临。
1. 北美驯鹿为了过冬会迁徙多远？
2. 当一只熊冬眠时，它的身体会发生什么变化？
3. 你会待在家里过冬还是出去玩乐？为什么？
