| It is reported that conservation groups in North America have been arguing about the benefits and dangers of wolves. Some groups believe wolves should be killed. Other people believe wolves must be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderness (荒野). For Killing Wolves In Alaska, the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago, because hunters were killing hundreds of them for sport. However, laws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur. So the wolf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply. A wolf naturally eats animals in the deer family. People in the wilderness also hunt deer for food. Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant life. When the deer can"t find enough food, they die. If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer, their prey (猎物) will disappear some day. And the wolves will, too. So we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecology. If we killed more wolves, we would save them and their prey from dying out. We"d also save some farm animals. In another northern state, wolves attack cows and chickens for food. Farmers want the government to send biologists to study the problem. They believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small wolf population. Against Killing Wolves If you had lived long ago, you would have heard many different stories about the dangerous wolf. According to most stories, hungry wolves often kill people for food. Even today, the stories of the "big bad wolf"＂will not disappear. But the fact is that wolves are afraid of people and they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smell. When wolves eat other animals, they usually kill the very young or the sick and injured. The strongest survive. No kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had lived. And has always been a law of nature. Although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves, we say it is nonsense! Researchers have found wolves and their prey living in balance. The wolves keep the deer population from becoming too large, and that keeps a balance in the wilderness plant life. The real problem is that the areas where wolves can live are being used by people. Even if wilderness land is not used directly for human needs, the wolves can"t always find enough food. So they travel to the nearest source, which is often a farm. Then there is danger. The "big bad wolf" has arrived! And everyone knows what happens next. |

| Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person"s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger ferociously may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably." Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger. |

| More ice melted from the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet this year than ever before recorded, report scientists from the University of Colorado. The same team found that the extent of Arctic sea ice reached the lowest level in the satellite record in 2002, offering further proof that climate change is already changing the Arctic. Researchers from the University of Colorado (UC) say that the speeding up melting appears to be linked to changes in Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation patterns. The study also found temperatures during the summer of 2002 were warmer than usual over much of the Arctic Ocean. "It is likely that sea ice extent will continue to decline over the 21st century as the climate warms," researchers added. "With these trends, we may see a 20 percent reduction in the yearly average sea ice by 2050, and by then there might be no ice at all during the summer months." The report was released on Saturday at the yearly fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union, just one week after an announcement by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that sea ice is melting about nine percent faster than earlier research had showed, and could disappear entirely by the end of this century. "This trend of disappearing Arctic sea ice is one example of the environmental damage that can be linked to carbon dioxide emissions," said Morgan, "When we have the means to reduce CO2 emissions (散发) and prevent further damage, we should do our best. National leaders must act now to improve energy efficiency and increase the use of renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, before it"s too late." UC scientists judge that a change in the Greenland climate toward warmer conditions would lead to an increase in the rate of sea level rise, which will bring disasters to the human beings. |
| 1. It can be inferred that _____. |
| [ ] |
| A. scientists have found that Arctic sea ice is lower than before A. scientists have studied the pictures of the Arctic sent by satellites B. scientists began to do research on Arctic sea ice in the year 2002 C. warm temperature has hardly any effect on the extent of Arctic sea ice now but soon will |
| 2. Scientists fear that _____. |
| [ ] |
| A. there will be no ice left at all in the Arctic Ocean at the end of the 21st century B. disasters will happen if Arctic sea ice continues to melt faster than before C. the temperature in Greenland will be too warm for animals and human beings to live on D. people still think Arctic sea ice is melting slowly |
| 3. It is thought that _____. |
| [ ] |
| A. carbon dioxide emissions are one of the causes of the environmental damage B. carbon dioxide emissions are an example of the environmental damage C. most environmental problems are caused by carbon dioxide emissions D. people can still have the chance to solve the above environmental problem |

| Water Safety To Rescue a Drowning Person Don"t jump in to save a drowning person unless you are a trained lifesaver. The victim may pull you under. Instead, try to toss (抛) a life preserver if you have one. Anything that will float can save the person"s life. A beach ball, a vacuum jug, or a picnic chest will also help. The National Safety Council points out that many drowning could be prevented if people knew all the common objects that float well enough to help a drowning person. If you are in a boat, or you can find one, use the boat to try to reach the person in trouble. Turn the boat so the victim can grab the stern. Don"t stand up to help the victim. Stay seated so the boat won"t overturn. Try to balance the boat as the person climbs aboard. If the boat overturns, stay hanging on to the side for a while to relax before trying to right it. |

| Researchers have shown that music has an important effect on one"s body and mind. In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as Music Therapy, which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways. Researchers have shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert (警觉的), while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, researchers have found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you"ve stopped listening. Breathing and heart rate can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate, and a relaxing response. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting not only relaxation, but health. Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind, by helping to keep worries away. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes among others.
