After a confirmed rabies(狂犬病) case in Parke County, Indiana, experts are urging caution if you find a bat(蝙蝠) in your home or office.

“If you try to kill a bat, you are more likely to get bitten,” said Joy O’Keefe, assistant professor of biology and director of Indiana State University’s Centre for Bat Research, Outreach and Conservation. “Most bats people find in their houses are healthy and are not going to bite them and give them rabies.” But they could be a federally endangered species, such as the Indiana Bat, which is found in this area.

So if you spot a bat in your home or office, don’t kill it or touch it with bare hands, O’Keefe said. Instead, put on a pair of heavy gloves and gently move it into a box or bucket. Once contained, the bat can be removed outside.

“If it’s a healthy bat, it’ll fly away eventually,” O’Keefe said. “If it doesn’t move or seem to be healthy, you can take it to the health department to be tested.”

This is the time of year when bats move from their summer resting sites to their winter resting sites, O’Keefe said.

“We get calls every year during the first month of school year from people finding bats in the university’s buildings,” said O’Keefe.

Bats are a great help to people, as every night they can eat up to their entire body weight of insects. Bats, however, are facing great threats from epidemics(流行性疾病), habitat destruction and other things.

“The best way the average person can help bats is by understanding them and by telling other people how awesome bats are and what bats do for us,” O’ Keefe said. “Hopefully, it will make people think that if there’s a bat in their house, they should try to get it out but not kill it. That would be really positive for bats—to not have people be one of their major threats.”

1.According to the text, experts are giving the public a warning about _______.

A. the biting by bats

B. the danger of keeping bats

C. the spreading of an infectious disease

D. the extinction of an endangered species

2.In O’Keefe’s opinion, when you find a bat in your house, you should _______.

A. put it on a tree B. send it to get tested

C. remove it with gloves D. report to the health department

3.We can infer that the text is probably written in _______.

A. spring B. summer C. autumn D. winter

4.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably means _______.

A. what bats like to eat

At present, animated (动画) films are popular with us. Most of them rely heavily on computer technology. But this magical world — where witches (魔法师) cast spells and castles float in the sky — is brought to life by hand, Nevertheless, Hayao Miyazaki is referred to as Japan’s Walt Disney and considered by many to be the world’s greatest living animator.

This month, the 72-year-old Miyazaki announced his retirement. The Japanese animator has directed 11 animated full-length films over the past four decades, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (《千与千寻》) and his latest release, The Wind Rises (《起风了》), which tells the life story of a man who designed Japanese World War II fighter planes.

Just as The Wind Rises shows, Miyazaki is well-known for his obsession with flight, especially human flight. Other attractive aspects of Miyazaki’s films include his themes of environmental protection and the horrors of war.

Miyazaki’s work is also famous for its lack of clearly defined good and evil characters. He sees the 21st century as a complex time when old standards need to be re-examined.

As a storyteller, he is an inventor of fairy tales full of mystery. In the Miyazakian universe, wizards (巫师) turn into birds of prey; young girls are transformed overnight into 90-year-old women; greedy parents are changed into pigs; and shooting stars become fire demons (恶魔).

People attribute Miyazaki’s success to his long pursuit of his hand-drawn technique, although in an interview with CNN he called himself an “extinct species” in the age of digital animation.

A recent television documentary on the making of The Wind Rises showed a disappointed Miyazaki throwing a pile of drawings into the trash. He is said to have redrawn thousands of frames of the much-praised Princess Mononoke (《幽灵公主》) when they did not meet his standards.

But his huge attention to detail has earned him the respect of the entire animated film world. Even John Lasseter — head of Pixar, the famous US computer animation studio — once called Miyazaki “one of the greatest filmmakers of our time”.

1.What can we know about Miyazaki’s film The Wind Rises?

A. It was put on a long time ago.

B. Miyaznki was once unsatisfied with some of the drawings.

C.It describes environmental protection.

D.It is an Oscar-winning film.

2.What does the underlined word “obsession” mean in paragraph 3?

A. Hatred.B. Enthusiasm.C. Envy.D. Sympathy.

3.What makes Miyazaki earn the respect of the entire animated film world?

A. His emphasis on detail.

B. His pursuit of the hand-drawn technique.

C. His dependence on computer technology.

D. His definition of good and evil characters.

Do you want to take time to get in touch with yourself, your feelings, your dreams, and a good, healthy life? Here are some tips:

1.__________ Sometimes it seems as if our culture has begun to view the need for sleep as a sign of weakness. But your body was genetically(基因地) programmed to spend a third of its life on sleep, and this affects thinking, memory, growth, your immune(免疫的) system and even your weight.

Begin the day in thankfulness. 2.__________ Name each person and hold them in your thoughts. The sense of thankfulness you experience will set a peaceful tone for the entire day, and reduce a day's stress that can lead to sleeplessness that night.

Strike a balance. 3.__________ Think about tai chi, prayer, yoga(瑜伽)—any daily activity that allows you to develop a peaceful center and a sense of balance.

Play with friends. The "tend and be friend studies", as they are called, conducted by UCLA researcher, Shelly Taylor, Ph.D. indicate that when women are stressed, they tend to their children and play with other women. 4.__________

Use guided imagination. 5.__________ The tone of your voice, pacing, music, and pictures will persuade your nervous system that it's time to calm down.

Walk it off. You can also effectively relieve yourself of stress by simply taking a walk around your neighborhood. 4. There’s a whole new world up there that you never seem to notice while rushing to work or talking to someone. Take a moment to admire a new building or a balcony somewhere high up that reminds you of a castle from your favorite movie. Enjoy your time alone and seize every moment of it.

5. Nothing brings you back on track like a good laughter. It is the most powerful antidote(良方) to stress and it brings joy into your life. Laughing brings people together and drives away all stress-related problems as if they never existed.
