My Dream Job

Carla, 12

When I leave school, I want a job that's interesting and enjoyable. I enjoy helping other people. My friends say I'm good at talking to people. I'm also good at mending things and I am not afraid of blood. I think I would like to work in a hospital. By the way, my favorite subject is biology.

Melissa, 13

I like to help people too but I don't want to work in a hospital. I'd like to work with kids or teenagers, because it is boring to work with adults all day. I'm very patient and I'm good at listening to people. I'm also good at helping my classmates with their homework. My favorite subject is English and I'd like to work in a school.

Diego, 15

I don't want an ordinary job. I want to have an exciting job. I enjoy travelling around the world. I'm very adventurous. I'd like to meet different people every day. I'm good at physics. It's my favorite subject. I can speak English, Spanish and German. I like to work on an airplane.

Mark, 14

I don't want an ordinary job, either. I think working in an office is boring. I'd like to be famous. I love to be in front of a crowd. I'm an outgoing person. My favorite subjects are drama and computer. I'm really good at acting. I was in the school play last year. It was excellent! I'd like to work on the stage(舞台).

It could almost be an act from a funny cartoon: A marmot (土拨鼠) jumps up with its mouth open in great surprise and stands on one foot. What was happening to the little one? A fox (狐狸) drew close silently from behind and was about to catch it!

This amazing picture, named "The Moment" was taken by Chinese photographer Yongqing Bao. It has won him the prize as Wildlife Photographer of the Year. He took the picture on a grassland in China's Qilian Mountains in early spring.

People say it's a powerful picture of both humor and horror! It includes the fun and danger of nature. For a photograph, it is quite simply the perfect moment.

In fact, Bao had watched the two animals for some time. Around an hour earlier before he caught the act, the marmot had noticed the fox. But it didn't find the fox lie low and still. Believing there was no risk of being seen, the marmot finally came out to find food. In a very short while, the fox ran forward. Thanks to his quick response (反应),Bao was able to record nature's final match—a fight for living.
