13.The Chinese television reality show called"Wonderful Friends",where entertainers hug whale sharks,kiss lions,feed pandas and dress up baby chimpanzees,has come under fire from wildlife protectors who want it to be stopped,saying such activities are cruel and are dangerous for both the humans and animals.The show is the latest hit from Hunan TV,which has attracted more than 196,000followers.In each show,popular stars are given zoo-keeping tasks that allow them to interact with wild animals in order to bring humans and animals closer together.
Animal welfare advocates say that is exactly what should be avoided.Dave Neale of Animals Asia (an advocacy group) said,"It is hugely misleading to the public about the needs and welfare of captive animals (圈养动物) and putting the animals'welfare and health at risk."
"What they don't realize is that wild animals need space,"said Xie Yan,a zoologist and China director of the Wildlife Conservation Society."Putting clothes on chimpanzees is not as adorable as you may think from the animals'point of view.I guess their idea was to get their viewers to love and protect the animals,"Ms.Xie added,"but we do not agree with this approach for entertainment."
Using famous people to focus public attention on wildlife is a common practice in conservation campaigns.The Chinese basketball legend Yao Ming went to Africa and highlighted the problem of elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) in the documentary"The End of the Wild"."But differently,he,as a human observer,kept his distance and was there to see the hard truth of poaching,and that is different from a show created to attract viewers."Ms Xie said.
Critics also argue that the show violates (违反) Chinese wildlife protection laws.

A.Many people like the show because of its dangerous activities.

A.they both invite different popular stars to show up

C.their filming locations are different

27.The passage would most likely be foundB.
A.on a notice board

4.Some children are natural-born bosses.They have a strong need to make decisions,manage their environment,and lead rather than follow.Stephen Jackson,a Year One student,"operates under the theory of what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine,"says his mother."The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers(剑).Later,I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones."
"Examine the extended family,and you'll probably find a bossy grandparent,aunt,uncle or cousin in every generation.It's an inheritable trait,"says Russell Barkley,a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina.Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance(支配地位) when they sense their parents are weak,hesitant,or in disagreement with each other.
Whether it's inborn nature or developed character at work,too much control in the hands of the young isn't healthy for children or the family."Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behaviour,"says family psychologist John Taylor."Children,"he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation,"have secret feelings of weakness and a desire to feel safe.It's the parents'role to provide that protection."
When a"boss child"doesn't learn limits at home,the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family.The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches,for example,or trouble keeping friends.It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.
"I see more and more parents giving up their power,"says Barkley,who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30years."They bend too far because they don't want to be as strict as their own parents were.But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills.Their kids,in turn,feel more anxious."
So for the sake of the children,parents should be strict with them in a suitable way and get more knowledge to be good parents.
