reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it. It begin when he was selected
to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.
The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the
nationwide competition. Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing
with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the
robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition. Its well us auspices
competitor. Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the
thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia. Unaware of
his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped
her to put the finishing branches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot
looked even better than Alicia"s and it was able to become a ball with its arms, something Alicia had failed to
do.
On the day of the competition, he says Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him among
the competition. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over
her.
The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel"s try. The robot bird performed actions so unique and
different that the specialist judgments were the same. Nigel was so personal with himself that he did not
even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her, he would never win the competition.
B. He was honored with a scholarship
C. He helped his teacher construct a robot
D. He helped in the computer laboratories

B. He is strongly critical

If you were to walk up to Arthur Bonner and say, "Hey, Butterfly Man," his face would break into a smile. The title suits him. And he loves it. Arthur Bonner works with the Palos Verdes blue butterfly (蝴蝶), once thought to have died out. Today the butterfly is coming back-thanks to him. But years ago if you"d told him this was what he"d be doing someday, he would have laughed," You"re crazy." As a boy, he used to be "a little tough guy on the streets". At age thirteen, he was caught by police stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man. "I knew it had hurried my mom," Bonner said after he got out of prison. "So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain again." One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat (栖息地) for an endangered butterfly called El Segundo blue. "I saw the sign "Butterfly Habitat" and asked, "How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly away?"" Bonner recalls. "Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass (放大镜), "Look at the leaves." I could see all these caterpillars (蝴蝶的幼虫) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, "Without the plant, there are no butterflies."" Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly needed help. That was how he met the Palos Verdes blue. Since then he"s been working for four years to help bring the butterfly back. He grows astragalus, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat. The butterfly"s population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni received lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around. For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison. While he"s bringing back the Palos Verdes blue, the butterfly has helped bring him back, too. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
