One day, four lawyers were riding along a country road. There had been a(n)  36 , and the ground was soft. The lawyers rode  37 , talking and laughing. As they were passing through a  38 , they heard some noises in the grass.

“What’s the matter here?” asked one man.

“Oh, it’s only some old robins (知更鳥(niǎo))!” said another one, “The  39  has blown them out of the nest. They are too young to  40  .”

“What a  41  ! They’ll die,” said the third one.

“Well! They’re nothing but  42  ,” said the first lawyer.

The three men looked down and saw the mother robin  43  to her mates. Then they rode on, talking and laughing as before. In a few minutes they had  44  the birds. But the fourth lawyer, whose name was Abraham Lincoln,  45  . He got down from his  46  and gently took the little ones up. They didn’t seem  47 , but chirped (唧唧叫) softly, as if they knew they were safe.

“Never  48 , my little fellows,” said Mr. Lincoln. Then he looked up to find the nest from which they had  49 . It was much higher than he could reach. But Mr. Lincoln could  50 . He put the birds softly, one by one, into their warm home.

In a few minutes, Mr. Lincoln  51  the others. He had torn his coat on the thorny (多刺的) tree. Then all three of them  52  heartily. They thought it so   53  that a strong man should take so much trouble just for some worthless young birds.

“Gentlemen,” said Mr. Lincoln, “I couldn’t have  54  tonight if I had left those helpless robins to die in the  55  grass.”

Abraham Lincoln afterwards became President of America.

“Where is Papa going with that ax (斧子)?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast.

“Out to the hoghouse,” replied Mrs. Arable. “Some pigs were born last night.”

“I don’t see why he needs an ax,” continued Fern, who was only eight.

“Well,” said her mother, “one of the pigs is a runt (發(fā)育不良的小動(dòng)物). It’s very small and weak. So your father has decided to do away with it.”

“Do away with it?” shouted Fern. “You mean kill it?”

“Don’t shout, Fern!” she said. “Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway.”

Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. The grass was wet and the earth smelled springtime. Fern’s shoes were wetting by the time she caught up with her father.

“Please don’t kill it! It’s unfair,” she said.

Mr. Arable stopped.

“Fern,” he said gently, “you will have to learn to control yourself.”

“This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself.” Tears ran down her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand.

“Fern,” said Mr. Arable, “I know more about raising a group of pigs than you do. A weak pig makes trouble.”

“But it’s unfair,” cried Fern. “The pig couldn’t help being born small. If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?”

Mr. Arable smiled. “Certainly not,” he said, looking down at his daughter with love. “But this is different. It’s a pig.”

“There is no difference,” replied Fern.

Kenya is the first country to protect elephants by text messages. Mobile phone SIM cards are inserted(插入) in the collars of elephants. The cards will send a text message when the elephants wander too close to farms, allowing wildlife protectors to drive them off rather than shoot them.

Hungry elephants cause big problems for farmers and villagers in some parts of Kenya when they are searching for food. Two years ago the Kenyan wildlife service had to unwillingly shoot five elephants who continued to destroy crops.

In order to prevent such bad activities, the Elephants charity put a mobile phone SIM card on a huge bull elephant called Kimani. The conservationists(自然保護(hù)者) then set up a virtual(虛擬的) fence. Each time Kimani came near the fence, a text message was sent to farmers. So far he’s been stopped from going into the danger area fifteen times.

The project seems to be working successfully as Kimani hasn’t come near a farm for four months. A similar system has now been put into operation in another part of the country.

One of the biggest benefits of the project is that elephants seem to learn from one another, which can help a whole group change their habits.

The elephants can also be tracked using Google Earth software. This is also helping the protectors know where to use their resources to protect the animals well.

1.Elephants often cause problems in Kenya, because ______.

A．they are attacked                       B．they are angry

C．they are sad                           D．they are hungry

2.What does the underlined word “he” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A．The protector.                          B．The writer.

C．The elephant.                          D．The conservationist.

3.From the passage, we know that ______.

A．the text messages are of little help to the wildlife protectors

B．the project has worked out to be a great success in Kenya

C．a(chǎn) mobile phone SIM card has been put in all the elephants

D．the project has been introduced to all parts of the country

High school students need “cool” jobs in summer holidays. Working at popular retail chains(零售連鎖店) and ice-cream shops are good choices. The U.S. Department of Labor(美國(guó)勞工部) says that about two-thirds of the teenager workers are in fast food business. 1/5 of cooks and food workers are between 16 and 19 years old and 2/5 of food workers are part-time workers.

If you think taking a part-time job is easier, you are wrong. For young people, whatever you do, do your jobs well. Because a good work record will be useful for higher-paid jobs in the future. Let’s share my story.

Unless with my family members, I would go to eat fast food. That doesn’t mean I don’t like working in a fast food restaurant. My first part-time job, at age 16, was at the McDonald’s in Bloomington, Indiana. It was very hard work. Especially on Indiana University football weekends, we had no time to rest, but we still had a lot of fun. Finally I got a higher-paid job.

A future manager believes that difficult work encourages success. The growing U.S. population will bring more restaurants. While many people can’t deal with the pressure(壓力) to fill orders quickly, the people who really do a great job will get plenty of rewards in the workplace.

1.According to the U.S. Department of Labor, ______.

A．more than half of teenager workers are in fast food business

B．teenagers in America like to work in a fast food restaurant

C．teenagers like to take a part-time job in summer holidays

D．a(chǎn)lmost all teenagers are interested in fast food

2.The author uses his own story mainly to tell us that ______.

A．he never liked fast food and would never eat it

B．he didn’t like working in a fast food restaurant at all

C．he did a great job, which enabled him to find a better one

D．he never went to the fast food restaurant with his family

3.The underlined phrase “A future manager” in Paragraph 4 means the person who ______.

A．will become a manager in the future         B．wants to be a manager in the future

C．doesn’t like his job at present             D．worries about his future

4.From the last paragraph, we can learn that ______.

A．a(chǎn) manager will do less work and get more money

B．not all the people are suitable for the job in fast food business

C．a(chǎn) hardworking waiter has few chances to be a manager

D．the growing U.S. population can bring higher-paid jobs

Mark Twain is a name not usually connected with Broadway(百老匯), but now his play “Is He Dead” will receive its first public performance on November 29.

“Is He Dead” was written by Mark Twain in 1898 but was never performed. It was rediscovered in 2002 by Shelley Fisher Fishkin, an English professor and director of the American Studies Program at Stanford University. It was published the following year by the University of California Press.

The story is about a group of poor artists who fake the death of their friend in order to increase the value of his work.

“Is He Dead” is set in France in the 1840s and centers on the French painter Jean-Francois Millet. “Millet was probably the most popular European painter in the United States in Twain’s lifetime,” Fishkin said in a telephone interview. “Americans greatly admired him because he focused on the life of the common man and the common woman.”

According to Fishkin, “Is He Dead” is a satire(諷刺) about how value is created in the art world. Twain wrote the play when he was coming out of the hardest time of his life.

A．The death of a poor artist in the 1840s.

2.From the second paragraph we learn that ______.

A．the play was one of Mark Twain’s early works

B．no one knew the play until 2002

C．Fishkin is an expert on Mark Twain’s works

D．the play was published in 2002

3.According to Fishkin, Jean-Francois Millet was admired by Americans because ____.

A．he was a famous French painter at that time

B．he focused on the life of ordinary Americans
