Luis was born in Lima,Peru.He lived there with his parents.But one day his life changed completely.His parents got divorced（离婚）.And his mother moved to the United States.So Luis went with her.
This move was a big change for Luis.He tried to fit into his new life.He had to go to a new school,learn a new language and make new friends.But Luis felt different from the other children.He felt that he did not belong.He wanted to return to South America.Some years later he had his chance.He was so happy to return to his original culture!But to his surpri,he did not feel at home.
Luis felt troubled.He did not know which country he was from.Luis is not the only young person to have the feelings.More and more young people are moving around the world w
ith their parents.Their parents' work may cau the move.Families may choo to move.They hope for a better life.Such families have new experiences.They learn about other cultures.They have interesting lives.But there can also be a big problem.A lot of people do not understand how moving will affect their children.Parents may not understand their children's struggles.And they often think it will be easy for their children to return to their home country.They may expect their children to be the same as them,to have the same ideas,and to have the same beliefs.
There is a name for the children who grow up in more than one country-"third culture kids".Third culture kids are not completely part of their parents' culture.They are not completely part of the other culture they live in.Instead,they are a mix of cultures.This mixed culture is their own culture-a third culture.

All species of birds lay eggs,and most build a nest to hold their eggs.A few birds don't build a nest,incubate（孵化）eggs,or care for young at all.They leave the responsibility for raising their babies to other species.This breeding strategy is called brood parasitism（巢寄生），and it's done by birds called brood parasites.

Fewer than 1% of all birds are brood parasites,Over most of North America,the only brood parasite is the brown-headed cowbird.It makes n for the brown-headed cowbird to be a brood parasite when you consider this bind's history,Long ago,its range was fairly restricted to the short grass prairies of the Great Plains,where it lived on eds and incts if found on disturbed soil.How did the soil get disturbed？Big,heavy bison hooves broke up the prairie nod（草皮）.When cowbirds followed the bison,they could find food on the ground,some even in and around the bison droppings,which held partly-digested eds and attracted incts.
This worked great most of the year.But during the breeding ason,the cowbirds would have had a problem if they nested like other birds,Bison herds move about constantly,Ima
gine what would happen if a cowbird started nesting and suddenly the bison left!Without "help" from the bison,how could she possibly feed her babies or herlf if she stayed？Being a brood parasite,she stayed with the bison,knowing her babies were safe in the nests of birds who found food in other ways.
Female cowbirds will stay quietly in the tops of shrubs or trees,watching for nest-building activities.Once the cowbird locates the nest,she usually removes one egg.Many nesting birds don't even em to notice a cowbird egg among their own eggs.Once the cowbird nestling hatches,the foster parents rai the nestling as if it were one of their own.
Cowbirds remain with their foster parents for about 13 days after they leave the nest,following and begging from adults who are often very much smaller than the baby cowbirds!But after about two weeks,the babies go off on their own,and somehow instinctively associate with other cowbirds.
