【题目】 Even as a bush fire threatened the rural Australian community, Gary Wilson and his partner Julie Willis decided not to flee their wooden house.

The two had a home full of baby kangaroos to protect. More than 10 of the baby kangaroos — called joeys — stayed safe inside fabric pouches (育儿袋) that hung in the couple's living room. Each piece of cloth looked like the opening in which mother kangaroos carry their young. Wilson and Willis have taken care of wild animals before. Recently, full-grown kangaroos and other wildlife that had left their care long ago came back to the house in search of protection as the fires grew nearer. 'We had too many animals in the house and around the house so we really couldn't go, ' Wilson said. 'We decided we were going to stay and fight. ' Their home is now surrounded by burned land and vehicles.

Wilson and Willis defended their home with fire extinguishers (灭火器) and water pumps. Their house also had a special device on top that sprayed water on hot ashes falling on the roof.

Good preparation and good luck helped the building stay safe. And the animals have survived. But the fire killed two of Wilson's neighbors. 'It was a horrible thing. ' Wilson said.

Willis said, 'It's not until after the fires when it really hits you how close you were to dying... '

While Wilson and Willis usually care for joeys that are rescued after their mothers are struck by vehicles, they are now welcoming an increasing number of fire orphans.

She said, 'We didn't have children ourselves; this is what we spend our time doing. We think it's worthy — a worthy cause — looking after our babies no matter what they are... '

A newly discovered tea plant is caffeine-free

The world loves tea and some 3m tons of tea are consumed every year. Tea can be good for health, as it contains compounds that help to lower cholesterol(胆固醇)and reduce the risk of heart disease. But there is a downside. Tea contains caffeine which, 1 it improves mental alertness, can also cause anxiety, insomnia and other problems.

2 would be agreeable is that a tea plant that provides all the taste and goodness but with little or 3 of the caffeine has been found. Liang Chen and Ji-Qiang Jin of the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences have discovered just such a plant 4(grow) wild in a remote area in Fujian province, southern China. 5 they report in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, not only is the tea plant naturally caffeine-free but it also contains a number of unique medicinal compounds that, the locals believe, offer considerable health benefits.

6(know) locally as Hongyacha, the newly discovered plant grows only between 700 and 1,000 metres 7 sea level around a handful of Chinese villages.

Now the researchers 8(explore) methods to protect Hongyacha in its natural habitat while further studies are carried out.

Building a lasting social relationship

We all know that friends are special people who we share our lives with, and who share their lives with us in return. But seeking friends and keeping the friendship going are never easy.

According to research recently published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, the key is to use "we-talk".

Led by University of California psychologist Megan Robins and her colleagues, the researchers reviewed and analyzed 30 different studies involving over 5, 000 participants.1.

The word "we" moves people from an individual position into a partnership, which makes us more interdependent. " 2. Word use is a window into what people are thinking and feeling without asking them." Robbins told Science Daily.

3. The primary point is that interdependence may bring about supportive and relationship-centered behaviors and positive perceptions of the partner—especially important in times of stress and disagreement.

Contrary to "we-talk", there is "I-talk", which refers to the frequent use of the first-person singular pronouns, such as "I", "me" and "mine", when writing or speaking. Earlier this year, researcher analyzed a set of data that came from 4,7000 people in Germany and the US. 4. As you can see from the two studies, too much "I-talk" can make you feel depressed. But "we-talk" can encourage you to become more positive and create a chain effect of healthy interdependence with others.

So next time you are talking to a friend, try using more "we-talk". You may find yourself feeling more positive--and the effect it will have on your friend will be positive as well.

A. Pronouns offer an insight into whether people see themselves as individuals or as part of a whole.

B. If you are speaking in a person context, you're speaking about something that's of relevance to you.

C. Their research also found that "we-talk" is helpful for resolving conflicts.

D. Self-centered people are found to be indifferent to many things in society and other people because all their concentration is only on themselves and their needs.

E. This analysis of "we-talk" suggested that the frequent use of "we" and "us" is linked to happier and healthier relationships.

F. They found that too much "I-talk" was an accurate linguistic marker for the likelihood that someone is feeling stressed or experiencing negative emotions.

【题目】Lleyton Hewitt was born in Adelaide, Australia on 24 February, 1981. His mother is a former champion netballer, his father is a league footballer, and his sister is already ranked number one in Australia for her age in tennis. She has achieved already more in tennis than Lleyton had at the same age.

The Hewitts have a grass court at their home. This was where young Lleyton began his tennis career. When Lleyton showed an unusual ability for a 4-year-old and he was hitting balls consistently over the net, his parents decided it was time to find him a coach.

“Rather than get into bad habits, it was best he learnt how to hit the ball correctly.” says his father. Two years later, they got Peter Smith as his coach.

At the age of five, when most children that age are playing hide and seek or getting into all sorts of trouble, Lleyton and his family would make the trip to Melbourne for the Australian Open. Lleyton would sit for up to 12 hours a day watching players practise.

Lleyton’s career as a tennis player was planned by his parents who tried their best to keep him away from football. Lleyton’s parents thought it was too risky to play football since he might get hurt. Had Lleyton played football, it is quite possible he may have ended up playing for his favorite team—the Adelaide Crows. As his mother says, “I guess we’ve guided him into things we felt good for him before he did.”

By the time Lleyton was eight, he was winning “under-10 games” and always won a year ahead of his age. A professional career was looking very promising. Lleyton officially turned pro in 1997.

1Why does Lleyton’s parents disapprove of him playing football?

A. They want him to learn from his sister.

B. They think playing football is dangerous.

C. They think tennis is more potential.

D. They can’t afford a coach.

2From the passage, we know “the Adelaide Crows” is ________.

A. a basketball team B. a football team

C. a university D. a company

3We can infer from the passage that________.

A. Lleyton’s parents decide everything for their son.

B. Lleyton’s sister is more famous than him

C. Lleyton showed a talent for football at a very young age.

D. Lleyton works very hard to achieve his dream.

4What’s the best title of the passage?

A. A sports family B. A wise decision

C. A tennis star D. A promising career.
