A student asked his teacher,“What is Greed(貪婪)?” The teacher said,“To find the answer to your question,go to the chocolate factory next to our school and pick the one chocolate you like best.But there is a rule.As you pass through the factory,you cannot turn back.You must pick the chocolate as you go forward only.”

The student went to the chocolate factory.As he walked through,he saw one chocolate wrapped(包裝) nicely.He really liked it but he thought that he might find a much bigger one later.So,he walked further and saw another chocolate.But again,he thought the same and took nothing.When he reached near the end of the factory,he couldn't see any chocolates as big as the one he didn't pick earlier and started to regret his decision of letting it go.

Finally,he gave up.He went back to the teacher with empty hands and explained what he had done.

The teacher told him,“You liked one chocolate very much but you still kept looking for a bigger one.And later you realized what you missed was the best chocolate you could find there.That is called Greed.”

In our life we let go of many good things because of our greed of having even better ones.This is human nature:we always want something better and better.But we let go of many good things which can give us similar satisfaction and make us happy.Learn to make your choice wisely.

When Dr.Karen McComb came to Amboseli Park, her first task was to learn the names of the one hundred or so elephants most often seen.

Scientists working in the park have learned to study elephants by watching them up close. They have a list of almost one thousand elephants. There are records for all of the elephants born since 1972. Amboseli was a good place for Dr.McComb to study animal communications. Elephants were a great subject because their lifestyle depends on communication.

Dr.McComb and her team had learned a lot about elephant communication, but they kept on thinking about one puzzling(困惑的) watch. Some families were better at distinguishing(區(qū)別) calls of friends from those of strangers.

What made some families smarter than others? The scientists searched their records for an explanation. To their surprise, there was only one factor(因素) of importance: The “smartest” families always had the oldest grandmothers. A family, as it did in all other activities, waited for some signal(信號(hào)) from the grandmother when they heard a strange contact call. And older, more experienced grandmothers were better at telling whether other elephants were strangers or friends just by their calls.

That was an important discovery. It showed how an elephant family depends on the experience of the grandmother.

回答下面5個(gè)問(wèn)題,每題答案不超過(guò)5個(gè)詞。

1.How do scientists working in the park study elephants?

2.What did Dr.McComb study?

Li Yaoyou never thought his writing would become popular online.The 14-year-old at Wuhan Wuluolu Middle School wrote biography(傳記) for each of his 57 classmates in classical(古典的) Chinese.And now people are admiring his great talent.

Li's biography has more than 8,000 words.He wrote about each of his classmates,including their birthdays and personalities(個(gè)性).The ninth-grader sees it as a graduation gift to them.

In fact,writing a biography was part of his Chinese homework for winter vacation.Students were asked to read Historical Records(《史記》).Then they had to write a biography for others.

At the beginning,Li just wrote about six classmates he knew well.His teacher then encouraged him to write more.It was a big project,but Li worked hard to complete it successfully.He didn't know everyone well.So he talked with his classmates' friends and observed(觀察) them carefully.“Once,to write about a girl who I didn't know well,I talked with her friends for a few days,” he said.“My hard work paid off.I got to know she likes Pikachu and food!”

Expressing his ideas in classical Chinese was not easy.Sometimes,he searched online to learn it.But gradually,his language skills improved.“When I wrote the last 10 pieces,the words came to my mind naturally,” he said.Also,he tried to say something more about each person's special side.“Even if it is not a good,shining point,I keep it.I want to be objective(客觀的),” he said.
