15．A recent study of ancient and modem elephants has come up with the unexpected conclusion that the African elephant is divided into two distinct（不同 的）species．
     The discovery was made by researchers at York and Harvard Universities when they were examining the genetic relationship between the ancient woolly mammoth and mastodon to modem elephants-the Asian elephant，African forest elephant，and African savanna elephant．
     Once they obtained DNA sequences（序列）from two fossils（化石），mammoths and mastodons，the team compared than with DNA from modem elephants．They found to their amazement that modem forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths．
     The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove that the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years．The divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths．This result amazed all the scientists．
    There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species，but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species．
    Previously，many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were two populations of the same species，despite the elephants'significant size differences．The savanna elephant has an average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder height of 2.5 metres．The savanna elephant weighs between six and seven tons，roughly double the weight of the forest elephant．But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species．However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA．
     Alfred Roca，assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois，said，"We now have to treat the forest and savanna elephants as two different units for conservation purposes．Since 1950，all African elephants have been conserved as one species．Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants are two very distinctive animals，the forest elephant should become a bigger priority（优先）for conservation purposes．"

2．We were standing at the top of a church tower．My father had brought me to this place in a small town not far from our home in Rome．I wondered why．
"Look down，Elsa，"father said．I gathered all my courage and looked down．I saw the square in the center of the village．And I saw the crisscross （十字形） of the twisting，turning streets leading to the square．"See，my dear，"father said gently．"There is more than one way to the square．Life is like that．If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road，try another．"
Now I understood why I was there．Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the bad lunches that were served at school．But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said．
When I turned to Father for help，he didn't say anything．Instead，he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson．By the time we reached home，I had a plan．
At school the next day，I secretly poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home．Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner． The plan worked perfectly．She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered（喷溅出）"The cook must have gone mad！"Quickly I told her what I had done，and Mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson father taught me．I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago．I wouldn't stop working until I tried every possible means to my goal．Father's wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square．

12．Towards evening，Jennifer was walking on the beach with a gentle breeze blowing through her hair．Looking up at the golden red sun ball，she was surprised by its color，deep red in the middle，softly fading into yellow．She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky．
The atmosphere relaxed her．This was what she needed．"It's getting late，"she thought，"I must go home．My parents will be wondering where I am．"She wondered how her parents would react when she got home after the three days she was missing．She kept on walking，directing herself to bungalow（平房）163，where she spent every summer holiday．The road was deserted．She walked slowly and silently．Just in a few hundred meters，she would have been safe in her house．

"Dear Ellen，there's some coffee ready； I went looking．"But where was Ellen？On the right side of the hallway was her parents'room．She went in and saw her．Her mother，lying on the bed，was sleeping．Her face looked so tired，as if she hadn't slept for days．She was really pale．Jennifer would have wanted to wake her up，but she looked too tired．So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her．When Jennifer woke up something was different．She wasn't in her mother's room and she wasn't wearing the old clothes she ran away in．She was in her cozy bed in her pajamas（睡衣）．
It felt so good being back home．Suddenly she heard a voice．"Are you feeling better now，dear？You know you got us very，very scared．"
