Many countries have different ideas about different animals, but when we talk about pigs, we may have the same idea of them---the pigs are ugly, lazy and stupid(蠢的).

Just look at the idioms(習(xí)慣) in Chinese. We have “Boiling a dead pig, ” and “A big looking in the mirrors still a pig.” And in English, they have “eating like a pig” and “sweating like a pig,” None(沒有一個)of them are good.

In fact, there are some good things about pigs. And maybe now is the best time to clear(澄清)their names because 2019 is the Year of the Pig in China.

First, pigs are not stupid. Their EQ is like dogs and chimpanzees(黑猩猩). They can remember things for a long time. And some pigs can learn things from people.

Second, pigs are very clean animal. On farms, they live in dirty places, so they are very dirty. In the wild(野外). Pigs are very clean.

Third, pigs are very friendly animals. Some people keep them as pets. Of course, people keep the small kind, not the big kind. Small pigs are very cute.

There are cute pigs in cartoons, too. Peppa Pig, for example, a UK cartoon, becomes popular in many countries. The four pigs in the cartoon teach children about love, friendship and family. In China, we have McDull(麥兜), a pig who works hard to make his dream come true.

1.How many idioms are in the passage?

2.What does Peppa Pig teach children?

3.What good qualities(特質(zhì))do pigs have according to the writer?
