17．（Reuters）-A Malaysia Airlines flight carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew was presumed to have crashed off the Vietnamese coast on Saturday，and European officials said two people on board were using false identities．
There were no reports of bad weather and no sign of why the Boeing 777-200ER would have vanished from radar screens about an hour after it took off from Kuala Lumpur for Beijing．
"We are not ruling out any possibilities，"Malaysia Airlines CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya told a news conference．
By the early hours of Sunday，there were no confirmed signs of the plane or any wreckage，well over 24 hours after it went missing．Operations will continue through the night，officials said．
There were no indications of sabotage （蓄意破坏） nor claims of an attack．But the passenger list issued by the airline included the names of two Europeans-Austrian Christian Kozel and Italian Luigi Maraldi-who，according to their foreign ministries，were not in fact on the plane．
A foreign ministry spokesman in Vienna said："Our embassy got the information that there was an Austrian on board．That was the passenger list from Malaysia Airlines．Our system came back with a note that this is a stolen passport．"
Austrian police had found the man safe at home．The passport was stolen two years ago while he was travelling in Thailand，the spokesman said．
The foreign ministry in Rome said no Italian was on the plane either，despite the inclusion of Maraldi's name on the list．His mother，Renata Lucchi，told Reuters his passport was lost，presumed stolen，in Thailand in 2013．

8．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 wilderndss（荒野）
For Killing Wolves
    In Alaska，the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago，because hunters were killing hundreds 0f them forsport．However．1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur．So the woIf 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 woIf 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 woIf'"will not disappear．
    But the fact is 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 bv 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．

My neighbor's children love playing hide-and-seek as other children do，but everybody
had imagined that the game they played themselves last week would be reported in the local
newspaper．One afternoon，they are playing at the street comer．Paul，only five year old，
hid and locked himself in a storage mailbox in accident His sister，Nancy，heard his cries and realized what had happened，so she immediately asked a mailman open the metal door．Paul
was free，but he had such bad a scare that he could not stop ay．The mailman told him that
next time he wanted to hide in a mail box，he should remember to put the stamp on himself．
When he heard that，Paul burst into laughing．
2．SOMA，Fukushima Dai-ichi-High levels of radiation leaked from a damaged nuclear plant in tsunami-stricken northeast after a third reactor was shaken by an explosion Tuesday and a fourth caught fire in a dramatic increase of the 4-day-old disaster．The government warned 140，000people nearby to stay indoors to avoid exposure．
In a nationally televised statement，Prime Minister Naoto Kan said radiation has spread from four reactors of the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant in Fukushima state，one of the hardest-hit in Friday's 9.0-magnitude earthquake and the following tsunami that has killed more than 10，000people，put millions into misery and hit again the world's third-largest economy．
Officials just south of Fukushima reported up to 100times the normal levels of radiation Tuesday morning，Kyodo News agency reported．While those figures are worrying if there is prolonged exposure （迁延照射），they are far from deadly．
Kan and other officials warned there is danger of more leaks and told people living within 30kilometers of the Fukushima Dai-ichi groups of buildings to stay indoors to avoid exposure that could make people sick．
Weather forecasts for Fukushima were for snow and wind from the northeast Tuesday evening，blowing southwest toward Tokyo，then shifting and blowing west out to sea．That's important because it shows which direction a possible nuclear cloud might blow．
The nuclear crisis is the worst that the country has faced since the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II．It is also the first time that such a serious nuclear threat has been raised in the world since a nuclear power plant in Chernobyl，Ukraine exploded in 1986．
Some 70，000people had already been moved from a 20-kilometer radius from the Dai-ichi complex and about 140，000remain in the zone for which the new warning was issued．
Millions of people spent a fourth night with little food，water or heating in near-freezing temperatures as they dealt with the loss of homes and loved ones．Asia's richest country hasn't seen such hardship since World War II．

6．In Britain，it's bottoms up from the week before Christmas till the last firework explodes in the sky announcing the new year，．The last Friday before Christmas popularly known as‘Mad Friday'-is one of the busiest periods for the country's pubs and clubs．
But it's not just the bars that get busy．Ambulances and A&E departments around Britain get packed out too．Head injuries，cuts，falls…it's easy to end up hurting yourself or others when self-control disappear and your head is spinning due to alcoho1．Revelers（纵酒狂欢的人）have been warned by the health authorities about the dangers of deadly drinking but drinking crazily seems to be part of the festivities for some．
The charity Alcohol Concern is running a campaign of restriction by encouraging people to have a dry January．
Jackie Ballard，the charity's Chief Executive，believes the campaign has been successful in recent years．She says："More than two-thirds of people even six months later are drinking at reduced levels having had a month off drink．But also a study has shown the impact it has on people's health reducing their blood pressure and blood sugar levels．"
The study by the University of Sussex followed up nearly 900participants in Alcohol Concern's Dry January campaign and found out that 72%of them had kept harmful drinking sessions down and 4%were still not drinking．
Moderation（适度）seems to be the key to everything．The official recommendation for women is not to regularly drink more than 2to 3units of alcohol a day．The limit for men is 3to 4units of alcohol-no more than a pint of 5.2%ABV lager，beer or cider．
