9.In the winters of 2012 and 2013,National Geographic grantee (被批准人) Anders Angerbjorn and his Ph.D.student,Rasmus Erlandsson,studied an extremely threatened species,the Scandinavian arctic fox,The current population numbers are fewer than 150 individuals in mainland Europe so many of the young foxes are having difficulty finding a non-related partner.Other threats to the species include competition from the red fox for the rare small rodents (啮齿目动物) they both depend upon for food.Angerbjorn and Erlandsson monitored the arctic fox population in Vasterbotten and Norrbotten,Sweden,to identify the best areas for further conservation actions.This included tagging (贴标签于) the baby foxes,which proved to be a challenge.
"When catching arctic foxes it is easy to believe that the smaller ones are the easiest to handle.In some aspects it is true.Their teeth are smaller and the jaws less powerful.However,just as human children have a hard time keeping still,the really small cubs (幼兽) do too."
"We handle the foxes in a bag while tagging,and the trick is to keep the animal still between your legs while kneeling.And here comes the tricky part.How do you keep a small,wild fox still?You cannot apply too much force.You really do not want to hurt it.Just as with small children the best tool is patience,but at the same time you want the handling to be as short as possible."
"One particular cub had a technique I had never experienced before as it continuously tried to turn onto its back,for no obvious reason.I had to reach the ears,so I quickly turned the cub upright.The cub stayed still for a few seconds,and then began to roll onto its back again.The same thing happened over and over again!Finally,I got the tags in place,and after making measurements and taking some samples,I finally let it go."

6.Challenge is an opportunity:to make it gold or a tough stone,it only depends on you.
Every time you overcome a challenge,it will lift you up,build you strong and make it easier for you to overcome your next trial.But if you surrender to the challenge,it will downsize you,break a piece of confidence in you and make it harder for you to overcome it the next time.It's like building muscles-the more you train them,the stronger they will become.
I used to be an inactive person.I was sitting behind my desk at work for eight to nine hours everyday,commuting to work and everywhere else by taxi and subway,sitting in my couch at home and sleeping for one third of my life in the bed.I was involved with zero exercise at that time and lived with very low energy and spirit every day.Then I finally felt sick of it and chose to add some movement to my life.
I changed my office job into a part-time one and applied for another part-time job working in a bar.So I made myself stand hours and walk around customers all the time.The first days were a"standing hell".My feet were screaming"You fat lady!"all day and night.But I stuck through every minute I wanted to give up,telling myself"Everybody in this business stands full hours just fine.You can definitely do it too!Let's hang on for one week first."
After that one week,though with sore muscles everywhere I still came up with the conclusion that,"This is actually bearable."So I hung on another week,then one more after that…until it's been four months now and I feel as comfortable as a fish in its pond to stand 20hours a week in the bar.And I didn't only stand in the bar for those four months.It was just a small trigger that activated the rest of the revolution. I soon fell in love with bicycling.I rode my bicycle to work,to meetings and to many romantic spots in the town.I was on the road for a minimum of one hour every day.I also got myself involved in a"stand-up computer"project and was standing at the computer four hours every day on average.It has become my most comfortable position to play with the computer now.I also touched up my life with dancing and stretching.Whenever my body feels stiff I give myself a good stretching and a round of dancing too if the mood is there.
Basically I became quite an active person now and this is not at all hard as I imagined in my couch for the past years.I am so happy that I made the first tiny steps to walk out of my comfort zone.Soon I was catching up with the rhythms and running spontaneously.
So what is the challenge that you are afraid of?Face it now,conquer it and let it make you even stronger.
If you are too timid to speak up for yourself in daily life,then regardless of your fears,force yourself to say one word out of the heart every day.At first,you will only mumble nonsense and totally sound like a nerd.But just keep throwing the balls,you will eventually hit some targets and organize clear sentences.
If you are suffering in your current life but don't think you deserve a better one,then you will keep living in the terrible situation.To breathe new air,you need to step out of your dead zone.Once you cheer up and make the first courageous step,then adding a few more steps is not that a big deal and soon you will walk farther away from the cave you hated.
It is always easier to do nothing about the challenge and remain in the current status.But I strongly suggest you choose a harder choice,fight with your challenge and let it lift you to a higher position with more beautiful views.Once you get started with throwing a few bold punches into life,you will soon feel comfortable to box with those opponents you thought so tough and tall.And later you will get so good at your skills that you must call in stronger competitors to the ring to match the game and have more fun.Be that aspiring(有志向的)boxer in your life.

11.Tuesday's Amtrak derailment(脱轨) Philadelphia,which claimed eight lives and injured more than 200others,has turned the country's attention to railroad safety.But for those commuters(每日往返上班者) questioning whether or not to board the next train,statistics may offer some reassurance.
According to the scientific journal Bandolier,the lifetime odds of dying on a passenger train in the US are about one in 1,871,241.So trains are still one of the safest modes of transport; in 2013,891U.S.fatalities were linked to rail travel,while 32,700people were killed in highway accidents.
"Train accidents are rare,"Dr.Zarembski,director of the railroad safety program,told The Huffington Post."Accident rate in 2014was 2.2accidents per million train miles,this number has been declining steadily."But if you are still concerned about safety-or if you're just curious about which part of the train is the safest place to sit-science has an answer for that too.
The front car of a train is the most dangerous place in the event of a head-on collision,while the last car is less safe if the train is rear-ended(追尾).In fact,trains are nine times more likely to derail than to hit another train or car head-on or to get hit from behind,according to the Federal Railroad Administration.The administration found that there were about 13,200derailments from 2005to 2014,compared with about 1,450collisions.
Studies suggest that broken rails or welds are the leading cause of derailment,and these problems more often cause derailments near the front of the train.Therefore,choosing a car located in the middle,or one or two back from the middle of the train may be the safest bet,Ross Capon,president of the National Association of Railroad Passengers,told CBS New York.
If you can't get a seat near the midpoint of a train,there's another potential safety factor you might want to consider-namely,which way your seat is facing."I prefer rear facing so that in most cases you are pushed back into the seat in the event of an emergency braking application,"Zarembski said.
In general,aisle(过道) seats are safer than window seats,where a passenger is more likely to come in contact with broken glass or be thrown out of the train,Capon told CBS New York.Of course,in the very rare event of a catastrophic crash like Tuesday's,there's no guarantee that sitting in a certain place or facing a certain way means you'll escape being injured.
58.What does the underlined word"fatalities"in Paragraph 2most probably mean?A
A.Deaths.
B.Rates.
C.Accidents.
D.Carriages.
59.In the first three paragraphs,the author is trying toD.
A.describe objectively the serious consequences a derailment may bring about
B.urge people to consider carefully whether to board a train in the future
C.impress on people the poor management of American railway lines
D.persuade people with statistics that it is still safer to travel by train
60.After reading the passage,we can infer that it might be the safest to sitC.
A.front facing on a window seat in the front cars
B.front facing on an aisle seat in the last few cars
C.rear facing on an aisle seat in the middle cars
D.rear facing on a window seat one car behind the middle.
