We have heard about people who have special memories.Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every detail (细节) of all the events in her daily life.
Rebecca Sharrock,25,is one of just 80people worldwide who have been identified(确定) as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM,超级自传体记忆症).It means she can remember every small event﹣which most people would forget with in (在…以内) days﹣as if it had happened just minutes ago.
"I remember my mum putting me in the driver's seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was 12days old,"she said."That's my earliest memory.I remember every day since then.I can't tell all the dates exactly because I was too young to understand calendars,but I remember what I did that very day,what the weather was like and so on."
Rebecca can also re﹣experience taste.If she's eating something that she doesn't like,she thinks about Black Forest cake,her favorite food,and the memory will be so strong that she can nearly"taste"it.
However,sometimes her memories prove (证明) to be painful.Because they're not just events that she remembers."When I relive (再体验) memories,the feelings return,too,"Rebecca said."For example,I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents' house and hurting my left knee.Talking about it now,I feel painful in my left knee."
"At night,I have to sleep with the radio/recorder and a soft light on,n she added."1f it's too dark or quiet,my mind would be filled with all these memories and I can't sleep."

Long long ago, there lived a man and a woman who had seven sons. The couple wanted a daughter, very much, and finally, they had a girl. She was very pretty and her parents loved her very much. One day the father needed water for the child, so he sent the seven brothers to a well(井) in the forest to get it. Once there, though, the boys began to fight and the water jug (壶) fell into the well. The boys looked into the well and thought of their father. They were afraid to go home.
Hours passed. "Where are those boys?" shouted the angry father."They are probably playing a game and have forgotten about the water. I wish they were all turned into ravens (乌鸦) !" And when he looked up, he saw seven black birds flying away. The father was shocked."What have I done?" he thought. But it was too late. He could not take back his words.
Later, the girl grew up and discovered she had brothers. The story of their bad luck influenced her deeply, and she decided to find them. For years, she searched and did not stop.

With it, she opened the front door and went inside. On a table, there were seven plates and seven cups. She ate and drank a little from each of them. In the last cup, she accidentally dropped a ring that her parents had given her.
Later that day, the ravens returned for their meal. The girl hid behind the door and watched. When the seventh raven drank from his cup, something hit his mouth. The raven recognized it at once﹣it was his parents' ring."I wish our sister were here," he said, "and then we could be free."

It's late evening in the middle of the winter. The snow is deep, but off I go into the wild.Suddenly, I hear it: the howl (嚎叫) of wolves. Excitedly, I walk faster in the direction of the howling.
I've been working as a volunteer wolf tracker in Yellowstone National Park for over a year. It's my job to follow wolves to record information about them. Like wolves, however, I don't work alone. I'm one of a team of people who have been in a project to help reintroduce wolves to the park.
Humans have always feared wolves. From fairy tales to movies, the wolf is always the bad guy a danger to humans and other animals. In the 1920s, the organizers of the park shared this view about wolves and made the decision to drive them away from the park.As a result,the number of elk(麋鹿)in the park increased. The elk started looking for food near river banks since they didn't have to worry about wolves.This, in turn, stopped trees from growing along the rivers, doing great harm to the environment there.
The return of wolves has already made a big difference. To begin with, the elk soon learned to stay away from the rivers, so new trees have been able to grow there. The trees become home to new wildlife, such as birds, and provide food for more animals.
The park is now becoming more and more popular with those who want to see wolves in their natural environment. It has also helped the local people make more money, Tourists visit the area,stay in the local hotels, and eat in the local restaurants.
Looking at the wild animals and the beautiful sceneries around me, I am amazed at the changes the wolf has made to Yellowstone.And happily,it is playing a good guy in this story.

Last summer my family went camping by a lake in the countryside. There we put up our tents and made a fire to keep us warm and cook food on. On the first night, we sat under the moon and told each other stories.
The next morning, my sister and I got a terrible surprise.When we looked out of our tent, we saw a big snake sleeping near the fire. I was was so scared that I couldn't move. We shouted to our parents to let them know about the danger. My dad started to jump up and down in their tent. This woke the snake up and it moved into the forest near the lake.

Have you ever heard of Monkey College? Who do you think goes to school there? If you said monkeys, you were right. Dogs are not the only animals that can be trained to help. Helping hands an organization in Cambridge, Massachusetts, trains capuchin monkeys to be companions and helpers for people in wheelchairs who can't move their arms or legs.
More than 20 years ago, Dr. M. J. Willard was working with a person who had recently become paralyzed(瘫痪). She thought that a monkey might be able to help her patient with some basic housework. Dr. Willard was right. Not only can monkeys be trained to help people, they are also wonderful companions.
Capuchin Monkeys are found in the wild in South Central America. They are about the size of a small cat and can live to be nearly 40 years old. They are very smart. They are also known for being friendly and good with their hands. Capuchin Monkeys have opposable thumbs ,which means they can use their hands much in the way that people do.
Everyday tasks, like turning on a light, putting something in the microwave, or playing a CD player, can be difficult for someone who cannot use his or her arms and legs. Capuchin Monkeys can easily perform these tasks. This allow their owners more freedom. They can do things on their own and can live independently.
The monkeys and their owners become friends and learn to depend on each other. Some owners say the monkeys are almost like children to them. The monkeys can be mischievous and sometimes like to play tricks on their owners. This is especially true of young monkeys. Mostly ,though, they like to please their owners. They like the tricks they receive when they do a good job, and they like to be praised.

The boy had bright eyes,and a happy,sunny face,and his looks and manners pleased the king.With a smile Louis asked him his name.He replied that his name was Simon.In answer to further questions,the king learnt that the boy was an orphan; both his father and mother were dead.
