22、   WeRun(微信运动) is an app in WeChat. It lets users see their daily step counts. One of its most popular things is a leaderboard(排行榜) among friends. Users can see how their results are compared (比较) with others.

As a growing number of people use WeRun, we wonder what we can learn about a person just from knowing his step counts. Here we take a closer look:

Fewer than 50 steps: Anyone who takes fewer than 50 steps in one day may be ill or sad. Or maybe he or she is just too lazy to get out of the bed!

50-500 steps: It's easy to have a few hundred steps. Even going shopping on foot will be enough.

501-8,000 steps: Most students and workers will take between 501 and 8,000 steps a day. These step counts are often in the middle of the leaderboard. But your parents will always give your step counts a thumbs-up (It's their job to care about you!).

8,001-30,000 steps: Salespeople and members of film workers are likely to take these many steps a day, as they are always on the move.

More than 30,000 steps: Mostly, these step counts can be on the top of the leaderboard. They're postmen, porters, cleaners and so on. They're the people who help us live easy and comfortable lives and keep our environment nice and clean.

Nowadays, more and more people use WeRun, from the young to the old. To some degree(在某种程度上) , a person's WeRun data (数据) can show his or her character and personal life.

23、In recent weeks, a herd（群）of 15 wild Asian elephants, left their habitat（栖息地） in Xishuangbanna in Southwest China’s Yunnan province, has traveled for around 500 kilometers in China’sYunnan in the past year. According to the provincial Forestry Department, the herd has changed its direction（方向）since Friday, as experts tried to attract them to go farther from the downtown areas with delicious foods, such as pineapples.

The reason for their migration（迁徙）is not known, but experts think that either a food shortage or the “guide elephant” misleading the herd.

The herd’s march has triggered（引发）widespread public interest, and many videos recorded by local people have received thousands of “likes” on social media. The most popular of these are two videos recorded on Friday in Jinning. In one, an elephant turns on a water tap with its trunk （象鼻） and gives the herd members water. In another, two baby elephants almost fall into a small ditch（沟）but are saved by the adults.

“Asian elephants have a strong sense of society and value the family highly. If any member—especially the young family members—needs help, others will try their best to provide it.” Chen Mingyong, a science professor at Yunnan University, said on Sunday.

Yunnan is the sole wild Asian elephant habitat in China. Before the 1970s, the species（物种）was endangered by a number of reasons, including a rise in the human population, reduced forestry areas and illegal hunting（非法猎杀）. Their numbers dropped heavily. However, through protection efforts in recent years, China’s Asian elephant population has risen from 170 to 300 in the 1970s.

“Its growing population needs a larger habitat and more food. The well-protected forest resulted in the decrease of some small plants—the favorite food of wild elephants,” said Giuo Xianming director of the research institute at Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve.

24、One day I found a little girl sitting in the park sadly. Lots of people passed by but never s【1】 to see why she looked so sad. As I got closer, I saw that her back had a s【2】 shape. That’s a hump (驼背)! Perhaps that was the reason why people just p【3】 by and did not help her. I sat down beside her and said, “Hello!” Then she, in a low voice, said, “Hi.” I smiled and she smiled b【4】 shyly.

Then we talked there u【5】 it got dark. I asked the girl why she was so sad. She looked at me and said w【6】 a sad face, “Because I’m disabled.” “But, you make me think of an angel (天使), sweet and friendly,” I said. She looked at me and asked, “Really?” I immediately(立刻) said, “Yes, I think you are an angel who is sent to watch over all those people walking by.” Hearing this, the little girl j【7】 up. “I am! I’m an angel!” I was happy because she was not sad any m【8】.
