Within the forest, nobody was allowed to cut timber, burn wood for charcoal, or catch animals for their furs. Animals 4 became dangerous to human visitors were caught 5 killed outside the park, so that other animals would not become uneasy. The need for wildlife protection is greater now 6 ever before. About a thousand species of animals are in danger of 7 (die) out, and the rate at which they are being destroyed 8 (increase). If we took no 9 to protect wildlife, some day out children would see no living creatures except man 10 . |

| Erik Weihenmayer was born with an eye disorder. As a child his eyesight became worse and then, at the age of 13, he lost his sight completely. However, he did not lose his determination to lead a full and active life. Erik became an adventurer. He took up parachuting, wrestling and scuba diving. He competed in long-distance biking, marathons and skiing. His favorite sport, though, is mountaineering. As a young man, Erik started to climb mountains.

| People are more likely to wash their hands properly after using the toilet if they are shamed into it or think they are being watched, scientists said on Thursday. Hand-washing is the cheapest way of controlling disease but less than one third of men and two thirds of women wash their hands with soap after going to the toilet, a British study by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine showed. But when prompted by an electronic message flashing up on a board asking: "Is the person next to you washing with soap?," around 12 percent more men and 11 percent more women used soap. Health authorities around the world are stepping up efforts to persuade people t  o be more hygienicand wash their hands properly to help slow the spread of H1N1 swine flu, which was declared a pandemic(大流行病) by the World Health Organization in June. "Hand-washing with soap has been ranked the most effective way for the worldwide control of disease," the study's authors wrote. "It could save more than a million lives a year from diarrheal diseases, and prevent respiratory (呼吸) infections -- the biggest causes of child mortality(死亡) in developing countries." In developed nations, hand-washing can help prevent the spread of viral infections like flu and sickness and diarrhea bugs like norovirus and rotavirus, as well as hospital-acquired infections like MRSA and C-difficile, the authors said. The researchers studied the behavior of a quarter of a million people using toilets at motorway service stations in Britain over 32 days．Use of soap was monitored by sensors. The study, published in the American Journal of Public Health to mark Global Hand-washing Day, show  ed that with no reminders, 32 percent of men and 64 percent of women used soap. |

| One of the strongest arguments for the raising of the school leaving age(ROSLA)has been that it will bring us some way nearer to"equality of opportunity". Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children．It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can be missed out when the state system is obviously so complete．It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less wealthy homes reach university or do well in other ways. Unfortunately we now have plenty of proofs that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could．For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence(智力)of all male 18 - to - 20 - year - olds． Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left school at 15. It has also been shown that the percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939．One study of 5,000 children from birth to 21 years old shows that up to half the bright pupils from working class homes left school when they reached 16 years old． Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexes, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16. It is clear from this and many other proofs that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit from the prizes-money, social respectability, and interesting jobs-which higher education gives． It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social background． Their parents often need the extra money another money-earner would bring in; they don't value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy．It is not so much that they force their sons and daughters to leave school, rather that they tend to say, "it's up to you". |
| 1．It is hoped that ROSLA will give all children . |
| A．a more enjoyable time at school B．the same chances in society C．the right to a better school D．higher scores in intelligence tests |
| 2．People would like to think that . |
| A．equal numbers of poor and wealthy children reach university B．those with the least money get the best education C．intelligent children are always selected by the system D．only really clever children do well |
| 3．Working class children are thought to be at a disadvantage because . |
| A．many of the clever ones leave school early B．fewer go to university than ever before C．more than half leave school when they are 16 D．fewer boys than girls stay at school after 16 |
| 4．Many children leave school early because . |
| A．their social background makes them unhappy B．they have to give something to their family's income C．their school is a dull and unhappy place D．their parents don't allow them to make their own decisions |
| 5．This article shows that equal opportunity in education . |
| A．is a thing of the past B．has not yet been achieved C．is there for those who deserve(值得拥有)it D．has greatly improved our society |
