"Can I see my baby?" asked the happy new mother. When the baby was in her arms, she couldn't believe her eyes. The baby was born without ears.

Time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect though he had no ears. He got on well with his classmates. But one day, he said to his mother, tears in his eyes, "A big boy called me a freak (畸形物)."

The boy's father asked the family doctor,"Could nothing be done?"

"I believe I could graft (移植) on a pair of outer ears if they could be gotten," the doctor said. They tried to find a person who would be helpful to the boy.

One day, his father said to the son, "You're going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have found someone who will donate the ears you need. But we must keep it a secret who the person is."

The operation was a great success, and a new person appeared. His cleverness and hard work made him a very successful person. He married and lived a happy life. He would ask his father, "Who gave me the ears? I could do enough for him or her."

"I can't tell you," said the father. "The agreement says that you are not allowed to know…not yet."

It was kept a secret for years, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother's body. Slowly, the father raised the thick, brown hair. To his surprise, the son found his mother had no outer ears. "Mother said she was glad she never had her hair cut," his father said in a low voice, "and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they?"

Brighton: It is a seaside resort on the English Channel. Only 50 miles from London, it offers a good variety of lively entertainment. It is a cheerful place, busy and crowded in the summer, but alive in every season of the year. Its royal pavilion(布萊頓皇宮)is a masterpiece of English architecture.

Durham: Whatever travelers see or don't see in England, they must see this city, in the northeast, just south of Newcastle­upon­Tyne. No one will forget the sight of its cathedral(教堂)and castle rising together on a steep hill overlooking a loop in the River Wear, which almost surrounds them.

As we enjoy the summer ocean waves along the beaches, we may think nervously about Steven Spielberg's Jaws and the great fear that sharks inspire in us. Yet we are happy to see global efforts to protect the declining number of sharks. The world has realized that we need the species, like sharks, to keep a balanced ecosystem.

Sharks, in particular, are “in” these days. Thanks to good public policy and famous stars such as Jackie Chan and Ang Lee, killing sharks for fin soup is no longer cool.

The demand for shark fins has been rising for decades, threatening sharks with extinction(滅絕)—up to 100 million sharks are killed each year just for their fins. But we have started to reverse the trend, particularly in many areas of the United States and overseas where restaurants once proudly provided delicious shark fins on the menu.

In California, a ban on the sale and possession of shark fin soup has gone into effect this year through the efforts of Wild Aid and other organizations.

Overseas marketing and public efforts featuring posters on public transportation systems and TV ads have been underway for the past few years. These efforts all show signs of success, on both the supply side and the demand side of trade in shark fins.

Actually, stopping the killing of sharks is part of a broader movement to stop the killing of wild animals and the buying and selling of wildlife products. These products come from hunting elephants, tigers and rhinos, besides killing marine life.

Whether it is shark fin soup or ivory piano keys, killing animals is big business. The hunting of elephants in search of ivory tusks for luxury(奢侈的)goods has become a full­scale war. The decrease of African elephant populations is alarming. Together with international partners, the United States is leading the worldwide effort to reduce demand for high­end products that rely on killing animals.

1.The underlined word “reverse” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.

A.show        B.keep

C.follow D.change

2.From the passage, we know ________.

A.Jackie Chan and Ang Lee make fin soup popular

B.a(chǎn) lot of wild animals have been killed for products

C.Steven Spielberg's Jaws inspires us to protect sharks

D.the number of African elephants has been increased

3..What can we infer from the passage?

A.More animals for high­end products will be saved.

B.People have kicked the habit of having shark fin soup.

C.Shark fins will not be available any more in restaurants.

D.Global efforts have succeeded in stopping killing wild animals.

In recent years many flowers shops have been appeared in our small town.
