23、One day last summer, watching the boys and girls trying to catch butterflies, I remembered something happened when I was young. When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that stopped me forever from wanting to put any wild creature in a cage.
We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening the mockingbirds(模仿鸟) would come and rest in the trees and sings. 【1】 I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way would have my own private musician.
【2】 At first, the bird flew about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician.
I had left the cage out, and on the second day my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. 【3】
Certainly the mother knew better than I about how to feed her baby.
The following morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! 【4】
Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist(鸟学家), happened to be visiting my father at the time. Hearing me crying over the death of my bird, he explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous(有毒的)berries(干果). 【5】 ”
Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free.
A. I had taken good care of my little bird.
B. I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage.
C. I was pleased to see this.
D. No musician can sing more beautiful than the birds.
E. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in cage.
24、 Every year on a special day in March , the world celebrates women's day. Women from different countries have done great achievements and made a difference. The BBC has made a list of the greatest icons of the 20th century. Among the list's 28 people, 11 are women. Let's meet three of them.
Jane Goodall ( 1934-present, UK)
Jane Goodall is one of the most famous zoologists in the world. She studied chimpanzees in a special way and made some great findings. Goodall didn't study chimpanzees in a zoo. She spent 38 years in the wild forests in Africa. She lived among them and found that chimpanzees used tools, lived in groups and had feelings like love and anger. This showed that humans and chimpanzees might have the same ancestors. Goodall's findings surprised many people. We started to ask ourselves: What does it mean to human'? How can we better protect animals?
Billie Jean King ( 1943-present, US)
Billie Jean King is one of the best tennis players in American history. She not only won many games, but also fought for more rights for women sports players.
During her time, women players got much less money than men. A top tennis player named Bobby Riggs looked down on women players. So King played a game against and won. She showed the power of women.
Tu Youyou (1930-present, China)
Tu is a chemist. She found a cure for malaria(疟疾). This has saved many lives around the world. Tu started work in the 1960s and found artemisinin(青蒿素) in a plant in 1971.

25、
Picky, Picky
Scientists have no idea exactly why birds choose certain objects to build their nests. But scientists know that the main reason birds build nests is to keep their babies safe, warm and healthy.
Baby birds grow faster and are healthier when they are warm. They also learn to fly and leave the nests sooner than birds without warm homes.
What A Yarn (纱)Is
Yarn is big on an oriole’s shopping list during nest building. Scientists are still trying to work out why so many birds choose white yarn over other colors for nest building.
Scientists think that the white objects remind birds of cotton fluff (绒毛) they find in the wild.
Do It Naturally
Even though birds can help us recycle some of our junk by using it to build nests, they also need to use lots of natural things. Long grass, dried sticks, spider’s silk and mud are some of the natural ingredients that are good for nests, too.
You can make a collection box of things to leave for birds so they can help themselves. Hang a small plastic box with holes on a tree branch. Fill the box freely with nest building goodies. Hang the box on a tree and watch birds climb on board to pick through the junk to find their treasures.
Warning: Don’t let the birds turn into a tasty treat. Keep your bird station away from places where cats hang out.
For The Birds!
Stop! Don’t throw all that garbage out! Give some to the birds. Look and see how your old junk can help beautify and warm a bird’s new home.
【1】The baby birds with warm homes are able to ___________.
A.learn to fly earlier B.grow slower
C.build better nests D.leave the nests safer
【2】What can people make for birds to build nests?
A.A warning board. B.Holes on a tree branch.
C.Food in the garbage. D.A collection box of things.

B.To show the importance of nests to birds.
C.To tell humans what they can do to help birds.
D.To show the bad relationship between birds and cats.
26、 Long long ago, there was a big bad wolf. One day, he was coming home. It seemed that someone was following him. He turned around but nobody was behind him. But he saw his shadow(影子). It was very tall and large.
When the wolf saw his shadow, he felt very proud. He said to himself, “ Look! I’m much taller and larger. In fact, I’m really tall and strong. I’m even bigger than that lion over there. If I go up to him and growl(咆哮)at him, he must be afraid of me. He will probably ask me to take his place to be the king of the animals.”
Then he walked up to the lion. He growled at the lion and wanted to terrify( 恐吓)him. But the lion wasn’t terrified at all. He immediately jumped on the wolf and ate him.

27、 Every person has its own way of saying things, its own special expressions. Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.
Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.
Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.
The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.
Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy(羡慕、嫉妒). Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.
The color black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist(黑名单) is illegal(违法的) now. But at one time, some businesses refused to employ(雇用) people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.
In some cases, colors describe a situation. A brown out is an expression for a reduction(缩减) in electric power. Brown outs happen when there is too much demand(需求) for electricity. The electric system is unable to offer all the power needed in an area. Brown outs are common during World War Two. Officials would order all lights in a city turned off to make it difficult for enemy planes to find a target(目标) in the dark of night.

28、From deserts and beaches to playgrounds, sand is a common sight. But you might not know that sand is also a useful resource. Sand is the second most-used resource in the world after water, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand is not limitless and that we might be running out of 【1】
Sand is made up of very small 【2】 (piece) of rock, soil and minerals(矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form. But now we are using sand more【3】 (quick) than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year 【4】 build houses, roads and other things. People also put sand in the【5】 [si:] to make new islands. For example, the Palm islands are made up of three【6】 [lɑːdʒ] man-made islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In 2010, they 【7】 (take) 94 million cubic meters of sand to build. If people keep【8】(use) this much sand, it will run out in many places. For example, Vietnam may run out of construction sand by 2020, Live Science noted.
【9】 [sins] people need so much sand, they are trying to mine(开采) more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may 【10】 beaches to disappear and more floods to happen in places close to the sea. Also, this may affect the habitats (栖息地) of many plants and animals.
