When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”.But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness.
Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever 36 the wolves' world? If you had, you would 37 the wolves.
In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about 38 than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 39 full use of the shape of land to 40 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be 41 experts good at fighting.
The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand 42 .Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A 43 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves 44 nothing. All the wolves obey the rules. 45 they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork 46 makes wolves powerful.
The wolves also have great selfrespect and won't 47 to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem”, 48 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his 49 ,he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with 50 wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was 51 and he never gave in, fighting 52 his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.
I was shocked by this kind of 53 :wolves are one of the most respected creatures on earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a 54 way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and 55 in this not simple and dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!

It is said that Abraham Lincoln searched for exactly the right words to say to his audience in that history-making speech that 1 less than three minutes.
Your speech probably won't be as long-remembered, 2 you can still strive to give your audience the best speech possible by 3 these simple tips:
Write and rewrite the material in your speech until it sounds exactly right to your own ears. Don't use words that are hard to 4 . Avoid technical 5 or keep them to a minimum whenever possible.
Remember to use descriptive phrases so your listeners can get a mental picture in their 6 of what you are talking about. People don't want to be told, they want to be given a 7 picture so they can better understand your words.
Avoid using a lot of statistics that will put your audience asleep in their seats. Keep necessary 8 in your speech to a minimum amount.
Humor can be an effective way to 9 your audience, Humor can also effectively lessen 10 , especially yours. You can use short jokes or personal anecdotes for this purpose. Just make sure your humorous material is appropriate for the audience you are 11 to.
Your speech will probably either inform or 12 your listeners to take action in order to help a charitable organization, etc. Be sure to include localized information in your speech that meet your audience's specific needs.
Read your speech out loud several times to hear how it will sound to your audience. Practice giving your speech in front of a mirror. That way you can see 13 you are going to look to the audience. This technique can help you 14 and feel more comfortable.
Make sure to speak a little louder than 15 conversation when you are giving your speech so that you can be easily heard by the entire 16 , not just the first few rows.
When you are giving your speech to your listeners, remember to 17 your speech down a little bit and don't rush through the words.
You can arrange to have helpful visual aids 18 before, during, or right after the end of your speech. This way the audience will have written information they can take home with them and 19 later.
Remember to be an appreciative speaker and to 20 the person or persons who asked you to give the speech. Also remember to thank the audience for listening.

Are you a social butterfly, or do you prefer being at the edge of a group of friends? Either way, your genes and evolution may play a major 1 , US researchers reported on Monday.
While it may come as no surprise that genes may help explain 2 some people have many friends and others have 3 , the researchers said, their findings go just a little farther than that.
"Some of the things we find are 4 uncommon," said Nicholas Christakis of Harvard University in Massachusetts, who helped 5 the study.
"We find that how interconnected your friends are 6 on your genes. Some people have four friends who know each other and some people have four friends who don't 7 each other. 8 Dick and Harry know each other depends on Tom's 9 ," Christakis said in a telephone interview.
Christakis and colleague James Fowler of the University of California San Diego are 10 known for their studies that show obesity, smoking and happiness spread in networks.
For this study, they and Christopher Dawes of UCSD used national data that 11 more than 1,000 identical(同卵的) and fraternal（异卵的） twins’ genes. Because 12 share an environment, these studies are good for showing the impact that genes have 13 various things, because identical twins 14 all their genes while fraternal twins share just half.
"We found there appears to be a genetic tendency to introduce your friends 15 each other," Christakis said.
There could be good, evolutionary reasons 16 this. People in the middle of a social network could be secret to useful gossip, 17 the location of food or good investment choices.
But they would also be at risk of catching effects from all sides -- in which case the advantage would 18 more cautious social behavior, they wrote in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
"It may be that natural selection is 19 not just things like whether or not we can resist the common cold, but also who it is that we are going to come into 20 with," Fowler said in a statement.
