Known as the Animal Lady in this area which I lived in, I was always asked to lend a hand in animal1. One afternoon three little neighbor girls ran up2my door, saying a baby squirrel was on the sidewalk. I quickly3the kids and they led me to a tiny squirrel still with milk teeth. I4and held the little creature up gently in my arms to check it for5. It seemed fine. I figured the mother must have been killed,6it an orphan(孤儿). Now, the baby was pretty hungry for milk and then left its nest to7the neighborhood for help.
I was about to carry it into my8when I found several other babies starting to run down the tree from where their nest was. With the first squirrel hid into my9, I stood at the base of the tree and was10when three more babies ran right down into my hands. Those dear little creatures were so happy to feel safe and11,and they all held each other close in my shirt. I took them home and12them bread and milk to eat. The poor starving things went13as they swallowed the meal.
I phoned a lady in the next town who14a small squirrel shelter. She had a big back yard with large 15surrounded by a tall wooden fence. She assured me she was well16to care for the babies and provide a natural home for them when they were grown.
I love that those little girls cared enough about the squirrels to seek out the17of the Animal Lady! And I really18getting to help the baby creatures. And then the19of caring continued20the lady with the squirrel shelter took them in. How wonderful to be part of a chain of kindness.

I believe honesty is one of the greatest gifts. I know they call it a lot of fancy names these days, like1and straightforward. And it’s still what2a man a good citizen. This is my secret, and I try to live by.
I’ve been in the taxi business for thirty-five years,3there is a lot about it that is not so good. Taxi drivers have to be rough and tumble(乱作一团) fellows to be able to take it in New York. You’ve got to be4to fight the New York traffic eight hours a day.
Because taxi drivers are tough, people get the5impression that they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like other people. Most of them will act as6fellows. You read in the papers almost every week7a taxi driver turns in money or jewels or like that people leave in their8. If they weren’t honest, you wouldn’t be reading those stories in the papers. One time, I found an emerald(翡翠的) ring in my car. I remembered helping a lady with a lot of suitcases that day, so I went back to where I had9. It took me almost two days to wait for her in order to return her10to her. I didn’t get as much as “thank you.”11, I felt good because I had done what was right. I think I felt better than she12.
I was born and raised in Ireland until I was nineteen years old. I came to this country in 1913 where I13several jobs to earn a few dollars before joining the army in World War I. After being discharged(退伍), I bought my own car and have owned one ever since. It hasn’t been too easy14, but my wife takes care of our money and we have a good bit15for a rainy day(一时之需). In all my years of driving a taxi, I have never had16with the public, not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong(顽固的) once in a while, I just agree with them and then they behave themselves.
People ask me about tips. As far as I know,17everyone will give you something, because most Americans are18generous. I always try to be nice to everyone, whether they19or not. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish(教区). I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time, and the20I try, the easier it gets.

Ausubel of Rockefeller University in New York, US. says the key renewable energy sources, including sun, wind and biofuels, would all require vast1of land if developed up to large scale production¹ – unlike nuclear power. That land would be far better left alone², he says. Renewables look attractive when they are quite2. But if we start producing renewable energy on a large scale, the fallout is going to be horrible. Instead, Ausubel argues3renewed development of nuclear.
Ausubel draws his conclusions by analysing the amount of energy renewables, natural gas and nuclear can produce in terms of power per square metre of land used³. Moreover, he claims that as renewable energy use increases, this measure of efficiency⁴ will4as the best land for wind, biofuels, and solar power gets used up.
Using biofuels to obtain the5amount of energy as a 1000 megawatt nuclear power plant would require 2500 square kilometres of farm6, Ausubel says. "We should be sparing land for nature⁵, not using it as pasture for cars and trucks," he adds.
Solar power is much more efficient than biofuel in terms of the area of land7, but it would still require 150 square kilometres of photovoltaic cells to8the energy production of the 1000 MW nuclear plant. In another example, he says meeting the 2005 US electricity demand via wind power alone would need 780,000 square kilometres, an area the size of Texas.
However, several experts are highly critical9Ausubel’s conclusions. John Turner of the US government’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory says that10the US got all of its power from solar energy, it would still need less than half the amount of land that has been paved over for highways. Further, it need not11additional land. The US could get a quarter of its energy just from covering rooftops of12buildings, he says.
According to Turner, the same "dual use" also applies to wind power⁶. "The footprint for wind⁷ is only 5% of the land that it13. Farmers can still farm the land that the turbines are on⁸. Turner says looking solely at land use is an oversimplification of the14. "I’m not sure I’d want to build one of these nuclear plants in Afghanistan⁹, but we could15put in wind and solar power," he adds.

Some personal characteristics play an important role in the development of one’s intelligence . But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people .
The so-called ‘non-intelligence factors’(非智力因素)include1feelings , will , motivation (动机), interests and habits . After a 30-year follow-up study of 8000 males , American psychologists (心理学)2that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence3, but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn , will power and self-confidence .
4people all know that one should have definite objectives , a strong will and good learning habits , quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to5these factors .
Some parents are greatly worried6their children fail to do well in their studies . They blame either genetic (遗传的)factors , malnutrition ,(营养不良)or laziness , but they never take7consideration these non-intelligence factors . At the same time , some teachers don’t inquire into these , as reasons8students do poorly . They simply give them more courses and exercises , or9criticize or laugh at them . After all , these students lose self-confidence . Some of them just feel defeated and10themselves up as hopeless . Others may go astray(迷途)because they are sick of learning .11investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46.5 per cent of them were12of learning , because of examinations , 36.4 per cent lacked persistence , initiative (主动)and consciousness (正直地、谨慎的)and 10.3 per cent were sick of learning .
It is clear13the lack of cultivation (培养) of non-intelligence factors has been a main14to intelligence development in teenagers . It even causes an imbalance between physiological (生理的)and15development among a few students .
If we don’t start now to16the cultivation of non-intelligence factors , it will not only affect the development of the17of teenagers , but also affect the quality of a whole generation . Some experts have put forward18about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors .
First , parents and teachers should19understand teenage psychology . On this basis , they can help them to pursue (调动)the objectives of learning ,20their interests and toughening their willpower .

After the birth of my second child, I got a job at a restaurant. Having worked with an experienced 1for a few days, I was 2to wait tables on my own. All went3that first week. When Saturday night came, I was luckily 4the tables not far from the kitchen.5, I still felt a little hard to carry the heavy trays (托盘)。
Before I knew it, the6was full of people. I moved slowly,7every step. I remember how8I was when I saw the tray stand near the tables, it looked different from the one I was9on. It had nice handles (手柄)，which made it 10to move around. I was pleased with everything and began to 11I was a natural at this job.
Then, an old man came to me and said, “Excuse me, dear, my wife and I loved12you work. It seems your tray stand has been very13to you, but we are getting ready to14now, and my wife needs her15back.”
At first his16did not get across. “What was he talking about!” Then I got it. I had set my trays on his wife’s orthopedic walker (助步器). I stood frozen as ice, but my face was17. I wanted to get into a hole and18.
Since then, I have learned from many mistakes such as the one I just19, I have learned to be more20and not to be too sure of myself.

Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we1realize that those challenges are the very things that 2 us and make us who we are .It is the same with challenges that come with 3.
When we are faced with a challenge ,we usually have two 4 .We can try to beat it off , or we can decide that the thing5 the challenge isn’t worth the6 and call it quits , Although there are certainly 7 when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most 8all that is needed is9 and communication.
When we are committed to something , it means that no matter how10 or how uncomfortable something is , we will always choose to11 it and work it through instead of running away from it . Communication is making 12for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong .And13 you can say to a friend , “I got my feeling hurt.” 14“You hurt my feelings,” you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster .
In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you , try to see them for15 they are: small hurdles you need to jump or16 on your way through life .Nothing is so big that it is 17 to get over , and hurt only18 to make us stronger .It is all part of growing up ,it19 to everyone ,and someday you will20 all of this and say ,”Hard as it was ,it made me who I am today .And that is a good thing .”
