Ron liked all kinds of sports. He ran fast and jumped high. He was good at playing football and basketball. He often took part in the sports meetings and won some games. Last month, Ron broke his leg in an accident, so he had to stop running and jumping. Later Ron decided to take part in the horse race. He went to the market and wanted to buy a racehorse there. He didn't have enough money to buy a good racehorse. He had to buy an old one. But soon Ron found there was something wrong with the old horse. It ate less and got thinner. He had to send for a veterinarian. An hour later the old veterinarian came and looked the horse over carefully.Is my racehorse ill, Sir? asked Ron. Yes, answered the old man.

Can it take part in the horse race?

If you insist, it can, said the veterinarian. But I'm sure you will run faster than it!

For safety, the school also asks students to stay away from the cage. “I feel sad for those birds. They’re my best friends,” said Jin, a Junior 3 student. “Last term I would bring corn to feed them, but I can’t do that any more. I hope bird flu will end soon so I can play with the pigeons again.” Nanyang Middle School is not the only one to take pigeons off campus.

Students in Beijjng Fengtai Experimental Primary School also gave their pigeons to the local health department （当地卫生部门）on February 3.

Their pigeons are special birds. In 1999, students found two injured pigeons and gave them a home. To get money for bird food, the kids sold rubbish paper They took good care of the birds, and five years later, those two pigeons had become 265!
