Jane Goodall is one of the most well-known scientists in the world. Much of the information we have today about chimpanzees comes from the research of Jane Goodall.
Jane Goodall was born in London in 1934. She became interested in animals and animal stories when she was a very young child. She always dreamed of working with wild animals. When she was eleven years old, she decided that she wanted to go to Africa to live with and write about animals. But this was not the kind of thing young women usually did in the 1940s. Everybody was laughing except her mother. “If you really want something, you work hard, you take advantage of opportunity, you never give up, you find a way,” her mother said to her. The opportunity came at last. A school friend invited her to Africa. Jane worked as a waitress until she had got enough money to travel there.
In 1957, Jane Goodall traveled to Africa. She soon met the well-known scientist Louis Leakey and began working for him as an assistant. He later asked her to study a group of chimpanzees living by a lake in Tanzania. Very little was known about wild chimpanzees at that time.
Jane spent many years studying chimpanzees in this area of Africa. It was not easy work. They were very shy and would run away whenever she came near. She learned to watch them from far away using binoculars. Over time, she slowly gained their trust(信任). She gave the chimpanzees human names such as David Graybeard, Flo and Fifi. Watching the chimpanzees, she made many discoveries. They ate vegetables and fruits. But she found that they also eat meat. A few weeks later, she made an even more surprising discovery. She saw chimpanzees making and using tools(工具) to help them catch insects.
Jane Goodall has written many books for adults and children about wild chimpanzees. Her most recent book is called Hope for Animals and Their World. It tells about saving several kinds of endangered animals.

Henry was a carpenter（木匠）of our village. Once I asked him to make a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I arrived home that evening, Henry was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for his work.. My wife said to me, quietly，“That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said loudly, "It's a beautiful table，dear，isn't it?" "I won't decide about that until I see that bill.” I said.
Henry laughed and gave me his bill for the work. It said：
BILL
One dining table June 10，1995
Cost of wood 17.00
Paint（油漆） 1.50
Work，8 hours（1 an hour) 8.00
Total（总计） 36.50
When I was looking at the bill，Henry said，"It’s been a fine day，hasn’t it?” “ Quite sunny.” "Yes，”I said. "I’m glad it is only the 10th of June.” "Me too，” said Henry, "You wait--it'll be a bit hotter by the end of the month.” "Yes. Hotter--and more expensive. Dining tables will be 20 more expensive on June 30th，won't they，Henry?”
Henry looked hard at me for half a minute. There was a little smile in his two blue eyes. I gave his bill back to him. "If it isn't too much trouble，Henry，”I said，"Please add it up again. You can forget the date.”
I paid him 26. 50 and he was happy to get it.

Feeling lonely can make you sick. Doctors have long known that loneliness can cause many health problems and even death. What they didn’t know is   16  this feeling causes illness. A study in the online magazine Genome Biology  17  that loneliness actually influences the important part of our bodies—our genes.
In a small population of patients, researchers   18  more than 20,000 genes to compare how the genes of lonely and non-lonely individuals (个体) express themselves in molecular processes (分子过程) and in personal health. They found that gene expression is   19  in chronically (长期地) lonely people. “We now have a new way for understanding the relationship   20   social experience and physical health,” explains the study’s lead author, Steve Cole of University of California, Los Angeles.
“This study—the first to link (联系)   21  with gene changes—is special and exciting,” says Emma Adam, a professor of human development at Northwestern University. “It   22  in the black box.”
According to John Cacioppo, an author of the study from the University of Chicago, the
work suggests that loneliness is a warning   23 , much like physical pain. “This feeling is so bad because   24  of us wants to be forgotten; that’ s also what human means,” he says. “It makes us   25  for other people and want to be with friends when we’re lonely.”
