For many people in North America, the last week was the coldest of the year. To help some poor people keep warm, some kind people tied(系) scarves to trees in big cities for people in need.
"I AM NOT LOST!" read a note on a scarf tied to a tree in Wilmington, "If you need this to stay warm, please take it. It is yours. Be warm, and do something to help someone else today if you can."
The member of a teenage soccer team put many of the scarves around Wilmington. They bought around 300 scarves for poor persons and left them on the Bloomsday runner statues(雕塑) in Riverfront Park with notes like the one above.
A group of villagers also left their scarves all over the cities. "The scarves get right to the people who want them," said Wendy Grahl, one of the villagers, "If you're poor and it's 30 below, a scarf is going to be welcome."
"I've seen a lot of bad things happen, but I've seen a lot of good people that care for others," said Ed, a homeless man who took one of the team's scarves.

八、閱讀與表達(問答式)(共5小題;共10分)
We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(遷移) is probably the migration of the fish which is called "salmon". This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龍蝦). Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.
So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don't. Maybe living things just like to travel.
根據短文內容，完成下列小題。
71. Do many animals stay in one place?
72. When do many birds move to warmer places to find food?
73. Where is salmon born?
74. What do the lobsters do when the season of the bad weather arrives every year?
75. What's the main idea of the passage?
