Thousands of years ago, Britain was covered by thick forests, home to many animals which no longer live in the United Kingdom. There were wolves and bears, many different kinds of deer and large wild cows. There were less than four million people. They lived in small villages protected by wooden walls from the animals outside.

All this has changed, of course. Now the population of the United Kingdom has increased to sixty﹣five million. Three﹣quarters of Britain is covered with fields, towns or cities. Although 25 percent of land is countryside, new methods of farming mean that there are fewer birds and small animals living in fields than ever before. The United Kingdom is one of the few countries in the world that does not have a large wild animal that eats meat. In Scotland there are only 400 wildcats, but these are much smaller than wolves.

Some people would like to change things, however! Some organizations and writers say that Britain needs to become more natural again. They suggest that trees and plants that grew in the UK before towns and cities were built should be allowed to grow again. They even say that large wild animals which have not lived in the UK should be helped to return and live wild. They call this "rewilding".

Not everyone agrees. In the last twenty years, over one million trees which at first grew in   Scotland have been planted and there are plans for more ﹣ but wild animals? Some people ask if wolves will attack sheep or even humans. They are also angry that rewilding might mean an end to walking in the hills which so many people enjoy. So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain's forests ﹣ but soon there might be!

Clara Daly was sitting on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles when she heard a worried voice over the loudspeaker: "Does anyone on board know American Sign Language?"

Clara, 15 at the time, pressed the call button. An air hostess came by and explained the situation. "We have a passenger on the plane who's blind and deaf," she said. The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the air hostesses couldn't understand what he needed.

Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help blind and deaf people and she knew she'd be able to finger spell into the man's palm. So she rose from her seat, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the seat of Tim Cook, then Gently taking his hand, she signed, "How are you? Are you OK?" Cook asked for some water.

When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat. She came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time. On her third visit, she stopped and stayed for a while.

"He didn't need anything. He was lonely and wanted to talk," Clara said.

So for the next hour, she talked about her family and her plans for the future. Cook told Clara how he had become blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman. Even though he couldn't see her,she "looked attentively at his face with such kindness," a passenger reported.

"Clara was amazing," an air hostess told Alaska Airlines in an interview. "You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to, and she was such an angel."

Cook's reply: "Best trip I've ever had."

Clothes Donation( 捐赠 ) Box

Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation box in your neighborhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming a trend( 趋势 ) in Urumqi.

"From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. You know, we teenagers are growing fast. I think it's a good way to help others. " Lin Tao, a junior student says.

"I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I'll put them into the donation box. " Miss Li, a pretty young lady says.

"That seems like a good idea. Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use themto make things such as handbags and pencil cases." Mrs. Wang, an old woman says, "Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes."

However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. Recently, a UTV reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results:

◆The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room for people to give away clothes.

◆Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.

◆Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it.

◆Many clothes are too old and shabby( 破烂的 ).

"What's worse," one of the staff in a community added, "We qutie often see people throw rubbish

into the box when they pass by. We've tried to stop them several times but failed. It has been the most serious problem since we set the box."

In order to make the donation box work in an efficient( 有 效 的 ) way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better﹣organized and it'll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away.

In the 13th century. Marco Polo the world known Italian travelled, saw many wonderful things in China. One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the I5th century. However ,the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.

Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. After that countries rich in forests, such as Canada ,Sweden, America, Finland became the most important ones in paper making.

Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland. the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated(使绝缘)from heat or cold with paper.

However. we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. Every day people throw away about 2, 800tons of paper in our city. It takes 17trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48.000trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10years for a tree to grow.

So we must start saving paper right now. We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some

In short, we should keep a balance (平衡)between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.

(1)When did the Chinese begin to use paper money   

A.

In the 5th century

B.

In the 6th century

C.

In the 7ih century

D.

In the 15th century

A.

Because it was a large country

Last month, a common graduation ceremony(毕业典礼) was held in Tianjin University,but it received much attention. Xue Minxiu, born in 1937, graduated with excellent grades after working hard for 4years.

Going to a university has always been a dream for Xue. But for some reasons, she didn't have the chance when she was young. Even so, she never forgot her dream.

A person has two ears but only one mouth. That means we should listen, not just speak. The word "listen" has the same letters as the word "silent". Listening silently is a good quality that we should have.Then why is it important to be a good listener?

    Listening is really helpful.

    When someone is sad or angry, he wants to express his poor feelings. At this moment, we need to listen silently first until he gets calm(冷静的). Then we may have a good talk with him. Maybe it is a good way to help him out.

    Listening is a kind of love.

    For example, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are anxious about our health, study and so on. If we listen patiently, our parents will feel we care about them. A loving silence is often more powerful(有力量的)than words.

Many animals around us are smart. Let's get to know some of them.

Many sea animals either ran away or fought with the ones in the mirror. However, when the dolphins saw themselves in the mirror, they tried to clean the red marks off their bodies. So the researchers believed that the dolphins knew the ones in the mirror were Just themselves.

   Bees work hard,and they are smart enough to learn something.Researchers found a group of bees and taught them to tell which horizontal line(水平线)was higher than the other. If they cold find the higher line, they would get sugar as a prize. After training for a period of time, the researchers tested the bees.

In students' daily talks, celebrities ( 名 人 ) are usually a hot topic, including their dress, behavior, families and other personal things. Then, is it a celebrity's job(职责)to be a good role model? Please read the following students' debate.

It's a celebrity's job to be a good role model because people usually look up to stars. If a celebrity drinks and smokes, his fans will follow him because they look up to the celebrity so much. If a celebrity's lifestyle is inappropriatefor kids, then their parents should be more careful about
