9.Lost forever
Most people have heard about Didus ineptus,or the dodo,as it is more commonly known.It was the flightless,long-extinct(灭绝的)member of the dove family that lived in the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius.The name"dodo"comes from the Portuguese and means"a person who is foolish";(31)C,to call someone a"dodo"(32)Atheir stupidity.The dodo was a foolish creature about the size of a turkey and was easily fooled by sailors who tapped on trees to(33)Cits attention.It would come(34)D towards the sound and was easily caught and whisked on board ship to become a valuable source of fresh,but tough meat.
Another expression to appear from the(35)Abird's situation is to say that something is"as dead as a dodo",which means long since dead,very much(36)B,or deserted.Of the many animals that people have removed from the face of the earth,the dodo has probably made the greatest contribution to our(37)D.
Another less well-known but(38)Bextinct bird is Aepyornis maximus,more commonly known as the elephant bird of Madagascar.This creature(39)Ca very thickset,three-metre-tall emu(鸸鹋)(40)Dover half a ton and is thought to be the largest bird that ever lived.It was big in every way,even its eggs were extremely large.An elephant bird egg could measure up to ninety centimetres in diameter and(41)C nine liters of liquid,about 200 ordinary chicken eggs.The eggs were in fact three times larger than dinosaur eggs.
It's hard to imagine how impressive the elephant bird must have been as it walked about proudly in its natural habitat.For thousands of years its size(42)Awas enough to scare the meat-eating animals.(43)Bit was a flightless bird,its sharp claws and powerful neck and beak ensured it could look after itself-that is,up until the Europeans arrived on Madagascar.They not only hunted elephant birds for food but began(44)Ctheir eggs as gifts.Sadly it was made(45)Daround I700,and the world became a much poorer place because of it

7.Teenagers at one German school are learning how to achieve happiness alongside other traditional (35)A such as maths and languages.
The class sits in a circle with their eyes shut and they count from one to ten:someone starts,the (36)B voice comes from the far right,a third from the other side.
The aim of the game is to (37)D for an opportunity to shout out the(38)C without clashing (相撞) with another voice or leaving a pause.On the first try,(39)C of the young Germans try to be first,while a few are too shy to join in.But by the fifth (40)A,they develop a rhythm (节奏).The message gives other people space but also claims your own.This is a requirement for social well-being.
Unlike schools in other nations,German schools do not usually have school sports teams or seek to build school spirit.Many teens admit they are (41)Band confused,but school is not usually the place to find relief.
The Willy Hellpach School in Heidelberg is the first in the nation to develop a happiness (42)C It is (43)A for 17-19years old students to prepare for university entrance exams."The course isn't there to make you happy,"Ernst Fritz-Schubert,the school principal,warned pupils,"(44)Brather to help you discover the ways to become happy."
Cooking a meal together will be one of the class(45)C,along with improving body language under the(46)A of two professional actresses.
The course is taught for three periods a week.Despite the happy subject,the pupils themselves insist it is no laughing matter.
"In the first period,we had to each say something (47)Babout another member of the class and about ourselves.No laughing at people or teasing,"said Fanny,17.
The message is that self-esteem (自尊) improves (48)C too.
Research by the school shows it is not the first to start happiness classes and they also exist at some US universities,but are mainly based on positive thinking,using (49)D from studies of depression.
"That would be too one-sided for us.We want to show how decent (好的) food or exercise can help too,"the principal said.

6.There is a virtue (美德)in China-Respecting the(36)D and care for the young".About the above two aspects,we will discuss the former one in this passage.
Why should we(37)D the old?because they are ahead of us in age,in wisdom and in experience.Our elders have done a lot for us,directly or indirectly and most of us(38)B everything to their kindness and love.
When we show them respect,whether it is by bowing to them,or (39)D them with a smile,or offering them any help they need,it is one way of(40)B our own love and gratitude to them.(41)B,elders have also been through all the years you are(42)A and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is (43)C that you do not agree with the belief of your elders,but this is nothing new.All younger generations have always(44)A with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human (45)A.However much you disagree with them,give them credit for their (46)B.
With changing times and(47)C influences,youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders.Youngsters should (48)D express their views and if there are arguments,they should not (49)A their voices.
If there is no space on sofas or chairs,children will immediately (50)D their places,and sit on the carpet.In buses and trains,youngsters are (51)B to give up their places to older people.This is not a(52)A of who has more rights.It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear (53)B,or tolerate unpleasantness,so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a(54)A disadvantage.
When you do simple things as a mark of respect,elders become (55)C that youngsters care for them,and they respond with affection and kindness.

5.From the health point of view we are living in a wonderful age.We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases.A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery.It is almost certain that one day medicines will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases.The expectation of life has increased largely.But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before,every day we witness the unbelievable slaughter (屠杀) of men,women and children on the roads.Man versus the motor-car!It is a never-ending battle which man is losing.Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.
It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel(方向盘),his car becomes the additional part of his personality.There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's very worst qualities.People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel.They swear,they are ill-mannered and aggressive,willful as two-year-olds and completely selfish.All their hidden anger,disappointments and envies seem to be exposed by the act of driving.
The surprising thing is that society only smiles so kindly on the motorist when seeing his behaviors talked about above.Everything is done for his convenience.Cities are allowed to become almost unsuitable to live because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is damaged by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic,to be conveniently forgotten.
It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life.In regard to driving,the laws of some countries are dishonorably loose and even the strictest are not strict enough.A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate.Here are a few examples of some things that might be done.The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through inflexible annual tests for safety.Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can destroy a person's driving ability,so present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter.The highest and lowest speed limits should be put on all roads,as has been done in the USA.All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned.These measures may sound unacceptably harsh.But surely nothing should be considered to be too severe if it results in reducing the annual loss of human life.After all,the world is for human beings,not for motor-cars.

4.In the winter of 1990,I was asked to appear on a television talk show in Toronto,Ontario,Canada.At the end of our first day of taping,I was on my way back to my 24-hour-room-service (36)B when I saw something shocking.
On the sidewalk in four inches of snow was a man (37)A with only a cardboard to keep him from being completely (38)Cto the freezing cold.What really broke my heart was when I (39)D that he wore no shoes and socks.
I wanted to stop and help him,(40)AI was not quite sure what to do.As the traffic light turned green,it seemed life was demanding that I (41)B.So I did.Back in"anything I wanted was mine"environment of my hotel,I immediately (42)Cabout the man on the street.Several days later,I was eating Danish at the station.All of the"important"people had (43)B the room and it was just me and the doorman remaining.
I had seen him (44)C go about his business every day without saying a word except,(45)D,When I asked him how he was (46)Ctoday,he told me that he'd been having to ride his bike to work in the snow and that he'd been feeling rather (47)C for himself…that is,until he saw a man sleeping down on the corner of the street with just a (48)B for covering from the cold and no shoes.I almost (49)D on my Danish as I heard him go on to relate how he was so moved with (50)A for the man that he bought the man a pair of socks and shoes.
As I heard his stay,I saw in my mind a (51)C that used to be in an old friend's bedroom when I was a teenager.It was a picture of a child _52_A someone a flower and the (53)D below read:'The (54)B deed often exceeds (胜过) the grandest of intentions."As Mother Teresa (55)B it,"none of us can do anything great on our own,but we can all do a small thing with great love."
