It is often necessary to release a fish, that is , set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just don’t want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive to bite again another day.

—When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible.

Don’t’ use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying.

—Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Don’t wipe the scales (鱼鳞) off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival.

—Remove your hook quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.

—Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water. Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.

—Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it. If you are going to release a fish, do so right away.

With a little care and by following the suggestions given above, you can give the released fish a better chance of survival.

Many parents find that their children act very mean to their friends．They wonder what they can do about this behavior without squashing their spirit．Here is what parenting experts explain and suggest：

Pre-schoolers have no idea how others feel．They are in the process of understanding their own feelings and have not yet developed “emotional intelligence”．Children of this age also do things just because it can make them feel powerful when they are able to make others respond．

Here are some things you can do to reduce the mean talk：When the child’s in a good mood, look her in the eyes and lovingly tell her how you feel when she speaks in a mean way to another child．Have a look of disappointment on your face and role-play with her to show her the behavior you would like to see．Then, every time you see her demonstrating the “nice” interaction with others, stop what you’re doing, give her eye contact and make a big deal out of it．Young children need to know what good behavior looks like with regular encouragement．When you catch her being mean to a child, get down on your knees next to her, and, with your arm around her, face the child that is receiving her meanness, and apologize to the child for both of you, then walk away．As soon as the other child is away, let your daughter know how disappointed you are in her behavior and quickly let it go．

Parents should set up a consequence when this negative behavior occurs．You can give these other ideas a try first．If you’re not seeing any results after a few times, then go ahead and set up the consequence (such as not being able to play with that child)．Avoid using “time out” because it doesn’t work．It gives the child too much power and too much attention．The most effective consequences are those that are directly tied to the behavior．If she is being mean to children, then the play session ends．And most importantly, set up this consequence in advance when the negative behavior is NOT occurring．

If you should catch her being a “bully” to another child, and she has somehow hurt him or her, immediately put all your attention on the victim, not her．Don’t scold or punish your daughter．Softly, gently, and immediately, nurture the hurt child and get your daughter to assist you in the nurturing．When things have calmed down, let her know face to face how disappointed you are in her behavior, not her as a child．

68．When a child talks mean to his friend, the best way to correct it is to ________．

A．tell him directly that it is a wrong doing B．demonstrate what a good behavior is

C．make him apologize to his friend D．ask his friend not to play with him any more

69．The underlined phrase “make a big deal out of it” in paragraph 3 probably means ________．

A．show some disappointment B．say a few words of praise

C．exchange gifts with the child D．present a surprised look

70．When dealing with a child’s mean action, you shouldn’t _______．

A．punish her in the presence of her friend B．put on a disappointed look on your face

C．tell her that you are unhappy to see that D．nurture the hurt child immediately

71．The passage is mainly about how to _______．

A．bring up children B．solve pre-school children’s problems

C．help children make friends D．guide children when bad behaviors occur

The Tasmanian devil is a rare marsupial(有袋动物)that lives only on the Australian island state of Tasmania. The doglike animal is rapidly disappearing. The Tasmanian state government estimates that the number of devils has dropped from around 150,000 in the mid-1990s to between 20,000 and 50,000 at the end of 2007.

The devil was declared an endangered species last week. It is being wiped out by a rare cancer called devil facial tumor(肿瘤)disease(DFTD). It spreads like a cold or flu from animal to animal. The disease is passed when one devil bites another. When the marsupial is infected with DFTD, large tumors develop around its mouth and neck. These growths make it impossible for the devil to eat. Many finally die from starvation within six months of being infected. As the name implies, the disease occurs only in Tasmanian devils and cannot be passed to humans.

You’ve got to remember that devils are scavengers(清扫工). They search through garbage for food. Throughout Tasmania people maintain outdoor dumps. If somebody threw out a carcass(兽类尸体), then the devils might actually consume quite large quantities of it.

The disease has not yet appeared in the devil population that lives in the northwest region of Tasmania. Conservationists have captured some of the healthy devils and sent them to a new home on the mainland of Australia. They hope these DFTD-free marsupials can be used to start a captive-breeding population. Once there are more disease-free devils, they can then repopulate the areas of Tasmania where the species are being wiped out.

Tasmanian devils play an important role in keeping the state’s ecosystem in balance. They keep the population of other predators, such as foxes and wild cats, in check. Ray Nias, head of World Wildlife Federation—Australia’s conservation program, says all Tasmanian wildlife will suffer if the devil becomes extinct. “If the devils go and the foxes and cats increase, it would be all over for a good dozen or more species of mammals, many of which are unique to Tasmania.”

46. It can be inferred that the Tasmanian devil is __________.

A. a hard-working street-cleaner B. a grass-eating animal

C. a meat-eating marsupial D. A DFTD origin

47. What’s the reason for making the Tasmanian devil endangered?

A. A rare disease called DFTD occurs in Tasmanian devils.

B. Dogs like to attack Tasmanian devils.

C. Tasmanian people try to wipe out Tasmanian devils.

D. The region of Tasmania is becoming hard for Tasmanian devils to breed.

48. To which question does the last paragraph give the answer?

A. How should people protect the devils?

B. What do the Tasmanian people do with the devils?

C. What happens if the devils disappear?

D. Which animal is closely related to the devils?

49. What measures do Tasmanian people take to stop the devils from being wiped out?

A. Trapping disease-free devils in a new place to breed more young devils.

B. Searching the cause of the disease and finding an effective treatment.

C. Developing new chemicals for the infected animals.

D. Moving all the devils to a new home on the mainland of Australia.

50. What’s true about DFTD?

A. It’s a disease that can be spread to human beings.

B. It’s a cold that occurs only in Tasmanian devils.

C. It’s a flu that Tasmanian devils get from their companions.

D. It’s a cancer that can be passed from one Tasmanian devil to another.
