　　J. K. Rowling is the writer of Harry Potter, which is now one of the best-sellers in the world.

　　J. K. Rowling was born in Bristol on July 31st, 1965. She has one sister who is two years younger than her. Both girls loved listening to their father reading bedtime stories to them. They especially loved stories about magical worlds. Rowling wrote her first story, called Rabbit, at the age of six.

　　After she graduated from the university, Rowling worked as a translator(翻譯者) in London. During this time, on a long train trip in the summer of 1990, the idea came to her of a boy who has magic but doesn't know it. In 1992 Rowling began to teach English. She lived with her baby daughter, Jessica, and spent much time finishing the first Harry Potter book for young readers. It appeared in June, 1997. To her surprise, the book was greatly successful. The film came out in November, 2001. Now Harry Potter series(系列) is popular with people of all ages and about 60 million books were sold in 200 countries.

　　Why has the series been so successful? There are a few things. Many other magical stories take place in far away lands or in past or future times. But Harry lives in modern(現(xiàn)代的) England. He's also a very normal(平常的) boy: polite, friendly, brave and clever. So when other children read about Harry, they can imagine being like him.

　　Modem zoos are different from those built fifty years ago. At those zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages with iron bars. Although the zoo keepers took good care of them, many of the animals did not feel comfortable, and they often fell ill.

　　In modem zoos, people can see animals in more natural conditions. The animals are given more freedom in large places so that they can live more comfortable as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in cages, and water flows through the places the animals live in. There are few bars; instead, there is often a deep ditch, filled with water, which surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together as they would naturally. In an American zoo, the visitors can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees, some small animals and many birds. It is large enough for the birds to live naturally. In a zoo in New York, with the use of special night light, people can observe certain animals that are active only at night, when most zoos are closed. Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.

　　Modern zoos not only show animals to visitors, but also keep and save rare animals. For this reason, fifty years from now, the grandchildren of today's visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.

Fire can help people in many ways. But it can also be very harmful. Fire can make water hot and houses warm, give light and cook food. But fire can burn things, too. It can make trees, houses, animals and other things catch fire. If some people can't run away from fire, it can kill them. This happens in every country. Sometimes a big fire can burn forests and destroy many tall buildings. Nobody knows clearly when people began to make a fire, but there are many interesting stories about the first time a man or a woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man a long time ago. He went up to the sun and brought fire down. Today people know how to make a fire with matches. Children sometimes like to play with them.
