As of Monday, Amy Carrickhoff’s video “Spoiled deer getting her bottle” was viewed more than 792,000 times and shared 9,600 times. In this heartwarming video, Carrickhoff stands outside her house in Oakridge, North Carolina, ______ for a deer she has named “Little Girl.” The deer comes out of the ______ and jumps on her. It hurries up the driveway and ______ Carrickhoff into the house, where it then sucks down a baby bottle of goat’s milk. When the ______ is gone, Carrickhoff wipes its mouth with a tissue.

While some animal lovers were touched by the obvious ______ Carrickhoff had with the deer, others felt she wasn’t doing the deer any ______. They said she was allowing the deer to get too ______ around humans and it could have been hit by a car, been shot by a hunter, or hurt someone. “You just gave this animal a death ______ — you also have put all your neighbors and their children at ______ of being attacked when this deer matures, and when it doesn’t get ______, it attacks someone,” one reader wrote.

Carrickhoff’s comment was that if she had known the video would get so many ______ she would have changed out of her gym clothes. As for the deer, ______, the update isn’t a happy one.

Little Girl continued coming back for bottles until around January 2011, when it moved onto ______ deer food, Carrickhoff said. “She walked off into the woods and we never saw her again,” she said. “We ______ those woods … we never found anything.”

Looking back, Carrickhoff said getting to know the deer was a special ______ that she wouldn’t regret.

Friends had brought Little Girl to Carrickhoff’s home because the woods in their backyard were protected, and the deer would be ______ from hunters. School children loved visiting the gentle creature, who would ______ them with its soft tongue and didn’t mind being ______.

Carrickhoff is confident that she didn’t over-domesticate (过度驯养) the animal. Even when Little Girl was bottle-fed, she lived in the woods and did “deer things”, Carrickhoff’s daughter said. The deer gave birth to a ______ of its own the following June, and toward the end, it wouldn’t come when it was called. It was becoming ______ again.

HARVARD, the top university in the United States, is a dream place for many students. Imagine being able to see how unique Harvard students are. Asking them what they learn. And how their classes are conducted.

This month, 300 students from different parts of China had an opportunity to spend a week with Harvard students. They gathered in the High School Attached to Fudan University in Shanghai where the Harvard College Association for US-China Relations Summit for Young Leaders in China (HSYLC 2007) took place. Over 40 Harvard undergraduates took part in it!

Around 2,000 Chinese students applied online for the program, which included various activities. Wang Wenjing, 17, from Shanghai Jingye High School was one of the 300 participants to be selected.

Seminars (研讨会)

Every day, the schedule was very busy filled with seminars, lectures, workshops (研习班), games and parties. Wang liked the seminars most.

Seminars are small classes with no more than 10 students. Wang could choose six from 40 different seminars to attend. A Harvard student led each one.

"They explored international issues such as US immigration (移民). We were allowed lively discussion and sometimes the only thing we did in a class was debate," Wang said. "To prepare for the next seminar, we often stayed up late doing research. No one could keep silent and it was fun to share ideas with others."

Celebrities’(名人) lectures

Each day, two or three lectures were given. Wang was excited that the lecturers were famous figures that before she had only seen on TV.

"I finally know why people are crazy about Yi Zhongtian. He is intelligent and eloquent (有口才的). Pu Bajia taught me how to overcome difficulties and plan for the future. All the lectures were inspiring," she said.

At the closing ceremony, Wang and her partner from Nanjing presented their workshop project. It was a survey of how Chinese view Americans, as an article about how Americans view Chinese is popular on the Internet.

"The program taught me what I could not otherwise learn in the classroom. Harvard students also let me know how important to be creative," she said.

DNA left at a crime scene could be used in the future to build up a picture of an offender’s face, it was revealed tonight.

A first step towards genetic mugshots has been taken by researchers in the US who link specific DNA markers with face shape. To identify the genes, they focused on known mutations(突变) that cause changes of the face and head. Normal versions of these genes were found to influence individual features. For instance, one gene affected the lips, another the shape and configuration of bones around the eyes, and a third the appearance of the mid-face and skull. In total, 20 genes had “significant effects” on facial appearance.

Lead scientist Professor Mark Shriver, from Pennsylvania State University, said: “We use DNA to match to an individual or identify an individual, but you can get so much more from DNA. Currently we can’t go from DNA to a face, or from a face to DNA, but it should be possible.” The implications are far reaching, raising the possibility of creating a data bank of facial types based on genetic markers. DNA from a crime scene could then be used to produce a rough image of the face of an offender or victim. Such genetic mugshots may be more reliable than computer-generated “e-fits” based on witnesses’ recollections. Other uses of the technique might include proving the identity of fathers in paternity cases, or visualising our remote ancestors from fossil DNA.

The scientists wrote in the online journal Public Library of Science Genetics: “Such predictive modelling could be forensically useful; for example, DNA left at crime scenes could be tested and faces predicted in order to help to narrow the pool of potential suspects. Further, our methods could be used to predict the facial features of descendants, deceased ancestors, and even extinct human species. In addition, these methods could prove to be useful diagnostic tools.” The team developed a model which first established a range of physical face shapes from people of mixed West African and European ancestry from the US, Brazil and Cape Verde. Measurements were taken of thousands of point co-ordinates on grids placed over 3D images of the faces.

Statistical methods were then used to determine the relationship between facial differences and the effects of gender, ethnic ancestry and individual gene variants.

1.The underlined word “mugshots” in the second paragraph most probably means _________.

A. different facesB. characteristicsC. pictures of faces D. genders

2.What can be inferred from the passage?

A. DNA has been used to build up a picture of an offender’s face.

B. It may be much easier to catch criminals with the help of DNA.

C. In all, 20 genes had “significant effects” on facial appearance.

D. One gene can affect more than one part of your face.

3.According to Professor Mark Shriver, we know_________.

A. they can merely match to an individual or identify an individual

B. there is a possibility of going from DNA to a face

C. DNA could be used to produce a rough image of an offender’s face

D. this technology is more reliable than computer-generated “e-fits”

4.What is the most possible title of the passage?

A. Creating a data bank of DNA

B. Recognizing the DNA of criminals

C. Predicting the location of offence using DNA

D. Building image of offender’s face from DNA

As we all know, the “(passenger) transport during the Spring Festival period” has been a hot phrase all through the China land.

The volume of passenger traffic(客运量) reaches its climax before and after the Spring Festival. Especially, the number of those who decide to go back to their hometown by train is increasing rapidly, so it promotes the short of the tickets of passenger train. Luckily, the Ministry of Railways(铁道部) has come up with solutions. For instance, it arranges extra trains during the peak time for passenger transport as well as opens 24-hour ticket sales windows for passengers in order to ease the traffic pressure. Moreover, it helps to deliver train tickets to the doorsteps, providing convenience for passengers.

One thing that has to be mentioned this year is about start of selling tickets on-line this year. For one thing, it to some degree shortens the time of purchasing tickets. However, most of the passengers are migrant workers returning home for Spring Festival. They are not familiar with the process of buying tickets and as a result cannot buy the tickets on time. What is worse, many computers selling tickets broke down under too much pressure of operation. Therefore, many people blame such a method in that it doesn’t suit nowadays’ situation.
