This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books.ix6iFA8xoXBut curiosity（好奇心）, a keen （敏锐的）eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist.

When Lafayette asked Adams to keep the crocodile for him, the President couldnt refuse.MdUZYnKS8IWhen President Martin Van Buren moved into the White House in 1837, he brought his tigers with him.
