【题目】Sarah Bigler, who lives in Indianapolis, was shopping with her kids at a Target last week, according to a Facebook post. When Bigler joined the checkout line, she ended up behind an elderly woman who not only wanted to pay in change, but also requested to pay for her items one by one.

The employee, Ishmael Gilbert, remained calm and accommodating, helping the woman with whatever assistance she needed. “Never once did this employee get unfriendly, angry or roll his eyes.” Bigler wrote. “He was nothing but patient and kind.”

The mom, whose daughter had watched the employee’s understanding conduct, took a picture of Gilbert’s interaction with the elderly woman and shared it on Facebook. She mentioned that that day, both she and her daughter were reminded of how important patience is. “We left Target with a cart full of consumable items, but what is more—a heart full of gratitude for such an invaluable lesson.” Bigler wrote. “If you are ever in the Glendale Target give Ishmael a smile and a nod. The world could use mole people like him.”

Gilbert had started working at the store a few days before Bigler’s visit. The Indianapolis Star reported. While the elderly woman was checking out, she became visibly nervous. Gilbert reacted by treating her with respect and care. Having counted out the change, he answered her a few questions and even went to another checkout lane to find the shopper a reusable bag, all while other shoppers were leaving his line for faster lanes.

While watching Gilbert for a while, the mom wrote that she was no longer angry. In fact, she realized it was a privilege to catch such polite behavior. “I realized I hadn’t been inconvenienced at all—that my daughter was instead witnessing the man’s patience and taught this valuable lesson by a complete stranger;” Bigler wrote in the Facebook post. “Furthermore, I realized that I, too, needed a refresher on this lesson.”

【题目】

We’ve all experienced peer pressure (同伴压力). It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they don’t want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps they’re just curious about trying something new. 1

It’s hard being the only one who says no and the question is: how do you do it? 2 If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple: don’t do it. It’s your decision, nobody else’s. You don’t need to be aggressive. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I don’t want to do that.”

Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. 3 You want friends who will support you when you’re in trouble. You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most trustworthy.

4 — You can learn a lot from people your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And don’t forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isn’t about feeling depressed and guilty. 5

A. Choose your friends carefully.

B. Firstly, you must decide what you believe in.

C. It’s about sharing experiences and having fun.

D. Of course, peer pressure isn’t completely bad.

E. It may be because they were all born to be stubborn.

F. Depression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure.

G. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing things they really don’t want to.

【题目】In the hills outside Missoula, Montana, wildlife biologists are looking at how climate change affects something very small: the snowshoe hare.

Life for snowshoe hares is pretty stressful almost everything in the forest wants to eat them.

Alex Kumar, a graduate student at the University of Montana, lists the animals that are hungry for hares. “Lynx, foxes, coyotes, […. even] red squirrels.”

Kumar and field technician Tucker Seitz spend months searching these woods for hares, often listening for signals from hares they've already put radio collars on.

They catch other hares with wire traps about the size of a breadbox, with some apple as bait (诱饵). Most of the hares they track live less than a year — a hazard (风险)of being what Kumar calls “the cheeseburger of the ecosystem”.

But snowshoe hares have a special skill: camouflage. They're brown during the summer, but turn white for the snowy winter months.

“There’s times when you’re tracking them and you know they’re really, really dose, and you just can’t find them,” he says.

Hares switch color in the spring and fall in response to light, when the days get longer or shorter. But if the snow comes late, you get a white hare on brown ground.

“And they really think that they’re camouflaged,” Kumar says. “They act like we can’t see them.”

Kumar calls this “mismatching,” and it's becoming more of a concern with climate change.

“If the hares are consistently molting (脱毛) at the same time, year after year, and the snowfall comes later and melts earlier, there’s going to be more and more times when hares are mismatched,” he says.

Scott Mills of North Carolina State University leads the research. He says they're finding that mismatched hares die at higher rates. That’s a concern for the threatened Canada lynx, which mainly eats these hares.

“It’s a very clear connection to a single climate change stressor,” Mills says.

Hares might be able to adapt over time. Some snowshoe hares in Washington State don't turn white at all. Mills is trying to figure out whether hares and other wildlife can adapt as fast as the climate is changing.

“But how fast is too fast?” he asks.

1The word “camouflage”(Paragraph 6) is closest in meaning to .

A. escaping B. hiding

C. fighting D. scaring

2According to the passage, snowshoe hares can now be easily discovered by their enemies because they .

A. change their fur color to white too late

B. haven’t adapted to climate change

C. can no longer adapt to the change of light in spring and fall

D. find it more and more difficult to molt at the same time each year

3Which best describes Mills' tone in the passage?

A. Approving. B. Enthusiastic.

C. Concerned. D. Doubtful.
