Characters:
Buck—a dog Judge (法官) Miller—Buck’s owner
Buck did not read the newspapers, or he would know that trouble was coming.
In fact, trouble was on its way for every strong dog with warm long hair. This was because men, going through the Arctic (北極的) darkness, had discovered a yellow metal—gold. And because shipping and transportation (運輸) companies were advertising the discovery, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted heavy dogs, with strong muscles (肌肉) for working and thick coats to protect them from the cold.
Buck lived at Judge Miller’s house in the sunny-kissed Santa Clara Valley. There were big stables (馬廄), long grape fields, fruit gardens and a big swimming pool. Buck ruled over the whole kingdom. Here he was born and here he had lived the four years of his life. He protected the Judge’s sons and daughters on long midnight or early morning walks. On cold winter nights he lay at the Judge’s feet in front of the warm library fire. He was king—king over everything, crawled (爬行的), walked, or flew at Judge Miller’s place, including humans.
Buck was this kind of dog in the autumn of 1897, when the discovery of gold in the Klondike pulled men from all over the world into the frozen North. But Buck did not read the newspapers. He did not know that Manuel, one of gardener’s helpers, was not to be trusted. Manuel loved to gamble (賭博). He believed he could win but he was doomed to failure.
On the night of Manuel’s betrayal (背叛), no one saw him and Buck go off through the fields. Buck imagined it to be a relaxing walk. They arrived at a little train. A man talked with Manuel and money passed between them. Manuel tied a piece of thick rope around Buck’s neck. Buck accepted it quietly. To be sure, it was unwanted, but Buck had learned to trust men he knew. However, when the ends of the rope were placed in the stranger’s hands, he barked. Then the rope tightened (收緊) painfully, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. Then his strength disappeared, his eyes grew dim (渾濁), and he knew nothing when the train pulled up. Two men threw him into the baggage car.
(Adapted from The Call of the Wild by Jack London)

Have you ever taken photos by using mobile phones with selfie sticks(自拍桿)? This new invention is a small, useful and cleverly-designed tool.
However, a pair of US artists from New Mexico, Arie Snee and Justin Crowe believe they have invented a better one and they call it “selfie arm”. For better or worse, they have taken the world by storm. It makes those people in the pictures seem to be holding hands with a loved one.
The pair say it offers a far better experience than using a straight stick. The selfie arm makes people feel they are not alone when they take photos. It seems that they are together with their friends. They think their invention solves the main problem that the selfie stick has —people look alone while they are taking pictures of themselves with great interests. The product, at present, just an art project and a model, conveniently provides you a welcoming arm. And better yet in the future, it’ll talk in a friendly way and never get angry or upset. The pair say they are fascinated by these new ideas.
The “selfie arm” is made of fiberglass(玻璃纖維). It is lightweight and easy-taking.
The project that they work on shows the growing selfie stick phenomenon(現(xiàn)象) directly and the increasing need for narcissism(自戀) and Internet agreement.
1.The selfie arm is _____________________.
A. the latest mobile phone B. lightweight and easy-taking
C. cleverly-designed but useless D. a useful digital camera

A. Mexico B. New Zealand C. America D. Not mentioned
4.___________ will make people feel they are alone while taking photos.
A. The storm B. The selfie arm C. The pair D. The selfie stick
