10．I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened．Looking down，I immediately recognized that something was wrong，and ran down to the edge of the near bank．There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf （young elephant） struggling in the fast-rising water，and it was a life-and-death struggle．Her calf was floating and screaming with fear．Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get，holding her whole body against the rushing water，and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body．Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away．There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother's body and was gone．Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk（象鼻） against the rocky bank．Then with a huge effort，she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock．
Just at this moment，she fell back into the river．If she were carried down，it would be certain death．I knew，as well as she did，that there was one spot where she could get up the bank，but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf．While I was wondering what I could do next，I heard the sound of a mother's love．Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could，roaring all the time，but to her calf it was music．

1．Before World War II，all bank tellers（出纳）were men．But as men went to war during the early 1940s，banks trained women to take their place．I was among 20 women selected by Bank of America to work as a teller at a small branch in Los Angeles．
November 23，1942 was a day I'll never forget when I was 22 years old and just two months on the job．When a well-dressed man in a suit，tie and hat came to my window．I greeted him with a friendly"Good afternoon．"But he shouted，"This is it!"
'The man placed a brown bag on the counter and said；"Fill it up．"Because of'the way he was dressed，it didn't dawn on me that this was a hold-up（持枪抢劫）．I was sure it must be a test of the new tellers'ability to follow bank rules．Eager to pass such a test，I coolly opened the bag，and then calmly filled it with marked bills．
"None of these!"the man shouted，insisting that I fill the bag with cash from another teller's drawer．Well，that was a big no-no from training：You never touch another teller's cash!I firmly told him it was against bank rules．You can imagine the disbelief on the robber's face．Other tellers later told me they couldn't believe I refused the robber's demands．
When the man told me to stand in front of the other staff along the wall，threatening to shoot me if anyone moved，I finally realized this was real．After the robber fled the bank，the manager got his gun and went after the robber but he failed to catch him．The robber was caught after another bank hold-up，and I was told I was the first female teller to be held up in California，which was a fact that attracted many reporters．

15．As the communication between China and Britain is becoming（71）increasingly（increasing） frequent，the differences between them（72）have caused（cause） a heated discussion in the past few years．
Firstly，table manners．We get used to（73）using（use） chopsticks while Englishmen use knives and forks．It's not polite to burst into laughter when eating in Britain，（74）whichshows that you don't respect others．（75）Onthe contrary，we laugh and talk during a meal．Secondly，in Britain，they walk along the left side of the road，but traffic in our country keeps to the right．Thirdly，for Chinese students，（76）whatthey have experienced in studying is an organized style．Students are required to follow a clear plan．（77）Compared（compare） with Chinese education，British education is （78）more flexible and imaginative．Students there are encouraged to discuss the subjects they want to learn．Last，in China，"thank you"is not often used between family （79）members （member） while"thank you"is widely used in Britain．
There is no sense in debating which is better．We owe these manners （80）to a long history，so we should do as the Romans do．

Social groups can provide support．They might include sport teams，art or music groups．The people in the group can offer advice and can help each other in difficult times．Also，being in a group keeps your mind busy．（39）D
