I was a receptionist (接待员) for an animal doctor fifty years ago. As an animal lover, I

couldn't 1 eing any animals in pain.

One day, when we were closing the office, a young man ran up to us holding a(n) 2

doberman in his arms and asking us to save his life. The four-month-old dog had been 3 by

a car.

The doctor and I ran back into the operating room 4 to save him in time. The animal

doctor worked tirelessly for 5 emed like hours. The dog had broken many bones,

including his spine (脊柱). He was badly hurt and we thought that 6 he got better, he would

never walk again.

However, that day forever 7 my life. I became the assistant in all medical things. At

that time, one of my first jobs was to give that dog daily 8 carefully. I remember moving his

tiny 9 with my full attention to try to keep his muscles from becoming weaker and weaker.

Weeks went by 10 one day, he continued to push back till he could u his legs.“He finally

A year later as I was calling the name of the next patient, a huge doberman jumped 12

me. That moment I found 13 presd against the wall with this dog standing on his behind

legs, his front paws (爪子)on my shoulders. He washed my face with 14 kiss! I felt amazed

that moment.

I went on to be an animal doctor for 14 years and now I am a volunteer at a no-kill animal

shelter to help the homeless animals. The 15 with a thankful heart changed my life so

much.

I'm in trouble.

Last week, we had a football match, and we lost. We played well, but one teammate

didn't do his best, I think. It was like he wasn't even on the court!Disappointed by his

behaviour, I said all this to my best friend. But he told everyone el what I'd said. I'm

really angry with my friend—what should I say to him? And should I say anything at

all to my teammate?

There is an old American saying, “Loo lips sink ships.”This means that if you speak

too much about something, especially to people who you don't know so well, it'll

cau all kinds of trouble. Maybe now you're in this situation. Forget all the unhappy

things.

Perhaps most importantly, think about your own behaviour. When filled with anger,

you would say whatever comes to your mind. You might hurt others. Take a deep

breath, calm down, and always remember: think first, speak later.

In my view(观点), you should do what your parents ask. They're much older than you

and you should respect them. It's their hou you live in and their money you spend!

Here's what you need to do. First, apologi to your teammate. Have a chat with him,

and tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking. Then tell

your friend you're angry with him for repeating what you said and making the

situation wor, but you hope your friendship will move on.

The balalaika, also called“Russian guitar”, is a traditional Russian musical instrument. It has

a long neck, a wooden triangle-shaped body and strings. It is usually ud to play Russian music

by plucking(弹拨) the strings with fingers or a pick.

Russians like the balalaika. The music played with it can be cheerful, as if the farmers were

dancing happily to celebrate their harvest. It can also be energetic, as if the workers were working

hard to make their country richer and stronger. If a Russian moves to live or work abroad, he will

probably take a balalaika with him. When he feels lonely and sad, he will play it to cheer himlf

up.

The balalaika was originally played by the poor in Russia. At that time, balalaikas were made

by the players themlves. They were rough, simple and cheap with different numbers of strings,

from two to even six. Later a Russian musician Vasily Vasil'yevich

Andreev(1861—1918)improved the balalaika. He created a whole family of balalaikas of different

sizes, all with three strings. The smallest balalaika is called Prima. It is 60—70 cm long. The

biggest, Contrabass, is almost 2 metres high with a leg to sit on the floor. Andreev founded the

first balalaika orchestra(管弦乐队) in the world, mainly using balalaikas to perform. He gave

concerts at the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1889, which was a great success.

Today, there are balalaika groups performing around the world. More and more people get to

know the balalaika and are attracted by its Russian style music.

Visiting outer space is still a far dream for anyone who isn't an astronaut, but a day trip to the

stars is already open for people to order!

A new company (公司), Space Perspective, is planning tests with pasngers. It has big plans

to run up to 500 flights from different places across the USA by 2024. If successful, reaching the

outer side of space could be as easy as flying abroad in a few years' time. The plan will be for

spacemen and up to eight pasngers to travel in Neptune, a capsule (太空舱) tied to a balloon the

size of a football field.

They will move slowly upwards right to the side of space, 30 km away from the Earth. There,

space tourists will be able to look back at the Earth and out to dark space and the sight of millions

of stars. Although the price is yet to be fixed, the expensive flight, which will take six hours, is

likely to cost over ￡100,000. Becau the capsule remains within the Earth's atmosphere (大气层), no special clothing or training are needed. It means that older people or tho with health

problems will be included.

One problem may be the method of landing back on the Earth. The balloon moves back down

from space until it falls down in the a. Pasngers, spacemen, the capsule and the balloon are

then gotten back by ship.

Now Neptune faces competition from the Stratollite, a balloon being developed by a

company called World View Enterpris, while the super-rich Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos and

Elon Musk are all pouring money into developing business space flying machines. The advantage

of the balloon is that it will be cheaper than a space plane or rocket.

Space travel may soon be a reality (现实), but how visitors get there is still a very open

question.

On a June afternoon in 1752, the sky began to get dark over the city. As the storm broke, most

people surely hurried inside, but not Benjamin Franklin. He decided it was the perfect time to fly a

kite. Franklin had been waiting for a chance like this. He wanted to show the connection between

lightning(闪电) and electricity, and to do so, he needed a storm.

He walked into a field, and flew a kite with a piece of rope tied to it. A key was tied to the

rope. The lightning hit the kite, and electricity pasd through the rope to the key. Franklin then

touched the key with his finger and got an electric shock(电击). This, he said, proved(证明) the

electrical nature of lightning.

For many years, schools have taught the story of Franklin's experiment. Millions of

schoolchildren have been amazed by his courage and his scientific spirit of looking for the truth.

However, new rearch suggests that the story may be fiction instead of fact. Although Franklin's

experiment took place, more than one scientist has questioned what really happened. It's true that

he did the experiment with the rope and the key. But scientists all agree that if Franklin had

actually touched the key, he would certainly have died from the electric shock.

Scientists often question accepted ideas becau they want to find out the facts. Some have

even questioned the story about the apple that fell on Newton's head. Many reports suggest that

although the falling apple certainly provided ideas, there is nothing to show that the apple actually

hit him on the head.

In fact, fiction is often more interesting than the truth. People have been more encouraged by

Franklin's spirit than by the facts themlves. But in science, facts should be tested by experiments

and rearch, and we should not always believe everything we read or hear—even if it is a great

story.
