Shu Pulong has helped at least 1000 people bitten by snakes．“It was seeing people with snake bites that led me to this career,”he said．
In 1963, after his army service, Shu entered a medical school and later became a doctor of Chinese medicine．As part of his studies he had to work in the mountains．There he often heard of people who had their arms and legs cut off after a snake bite in order to save their lives．
“I was greatly upset by the story of an old farmer I met．It was a very hot afternoon．The old man was pulling grass in his fields when he felt pain in his left hand．He at once realized he had been bitten by a poisonous snake．In no time he wrapped a cloth tightly around his arm to stop the poison spreading to his heart．Rushing home he shouted ‘Bring me the knife!’．Minutes later the man lost his arm forever．”
“The sad story touched me so much that I decided to devote myself to helping people bitten by snakes,”Shu said．

Shu decided to devote himself to snake medicine because ________．
Tokyo－Our kids, the Japanese government announced, have forgotten how to behave．They can't be bothered with housework．If they see someone being wronged, they probably look the other way．
Few countries have placed more importance on being well-behaved than Japan．The simplest requests for directions often result in guided tours．Smiling shopkeepers are still the rule．Lost wallets usually make their way back to their owners．
But according to recent surveys, all that may be going the way of the ancient hairdo(发式)．And Japan's government has gone into something of a crisis mode(危急时刻)．
A Japanese Education Ministry survey formed late in 1999 and made public last month found that Japan moves behind other nations in teaching youngsters right from wrong．
It also reported that Japanese children are less helpful and do far less housework than their foreign peers(同龄人)in all classes．But they are better about taking dirty dishes to the kitchen after dinner．
In addition, Japanese kids are more likely to dye their hair and carry cell phones than the American and Chinese kids, according to another survey by a Tokyo-based think-tank(专家小组)．
Children in about 9 percent of public school classrooms are so disorderly that teachers cannot hold lessons, further recent reports show．Children refuse to sit, to listen or to stop talking．
Older and middle-aged Japanese continue to have a solid sense of good manners and social justice, says Professor Yoshina Hirano from Shin'shu University, who was appointed to direct the ministry's survey．
Despite the knowledge of good manners among adults, the breakdown of manners may be spreading, he said．

Accidental discoveries have often opened the door to beauty and wonder．The rock paintings in France that date back 15,000 years, for example, were discovered by two boys who were looking for shelter from the rain．The paintings later became the “find of last century”．
Or, the Sanxingdui Ruins(三星堆遗址), known by historians as the“Ninth Wonder of the World”, were discovered in Sichuan Province by a farmer．
In the spring of 1929, Yan Qingbao, then a 43-year-old farmer, discovered a circular piece of jade(玉)while digging a hole．Driven by curiosity, he dug deeper and found a group of about 400 colourful jade pieces．
At the time, he had no idea his discovery would be as important as other wonders of the world such as, China's Great Wall and Egypt's pyramids．
Since then, more than 10,000 relics(文物), dating back to between 5,000 and 3,000 BC have been unearthed at Sanxingdui．
These relics include gold, pottery(陶器), bone tools and ivory(象牙)objects．
They prove that Sanxingdui contains the ruins of an ancient city that was once the political, economic and cultural centre of the ancient Shu Kingdom－the old name for Sichuan．
It has helped modern historians realize that Sichuan's human history goes back more than 5,000 years．And, located on the upper part of the Yangtze River, the site challenges the common idea that Chinese civilization(文明)rose from a single source－the Yellow River valley．
Sanxingdui was named the Scientific Education Base for China's Youth in March this year．
But still, only four of the Sanxingdui Ruins' 12 square kilometres have been uncovered．Who knows what other big surprises are waiting to be shown to the world?

Find Which Direction Is South
Do you have a good sense of direction?If not, please take with you a compass．But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way．
It’s never a good idea to imagine that the family member who was entrusted(委托)with the job of map-reading actually knows where the family is．You can tell by the slightly confused load on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map．Never mind．The shu is shining and it’s still morning．If you don’t know the exact time, you can still find out where south is, but you’ll need to be patient．
①
Find a straight sick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow．
②
Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can．You can check this by making a simple plumb line(铅锤线)with a piece of string and weight．You haven’t got any string?OK, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight．
③
Mark the end of the shadow cast by the stick．
④
Wait approximately half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again．
⑤
Keep doing this until you have made several marks．
⑥
The mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south．
⑦
Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick．
⑧
That point is south of where you are．
