connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership (伙伴关系) which is good for both of them. you may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. this is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫) on sheep. the sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. so although they can manage without each other, they do better together. sometimes an animal has a plant partner. the relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. this is so in the corals(珊瑚) of the sea. in their skins they have tiny plants which act as “dustmen”, taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. if the plants are killed, or are even prevented from receiving light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die. 29. we learn from the text that corals depend on plants for_.a. food b. light c. oxygend. comfort30. some birds like to sit on a sheep because _. a. they enjoy travelling with the sheepb. they can eat the parasites on the sheepc. they depend on the sheep for existenced. they find the position most comfortable31. the underlined word “they” in the first paragraph refers to _.a. birds and sheep b. birds and parasitesc. parasites and sheep d. sheep, birds and parasites32. what does the second paragraph mainly discuss?a. some animals live better together.b. some plants depend on each other for food.c. some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.d. some animals and plants depend on each other for existence d. for years i have had no idea what i have been doing with my life. i was a 30-year-old lawyer(律师) in new york. but being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life. i honestly wanted to be a writer. i have a great imagination and would write amazing stories in my head. but i always knew that being a writer was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.recently, i couldnt fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p. m. and when i did fall asleep i had the same dream over and over again. the dream starts with me in the ocean trying to go for a swim and im searching for something, but i start to drown(溺水) and have no control over my body. then a light shines through the waters and when i look up all i can see is myself in a bright white room writing a novel. then i hear a voice say repeatedly, “now is the time to try something new!”it wasnt just a dream；it was my opportunity to make something good out of my life. that afternoon, i quit my job at the law firm and i couldnt have been any happier. my life started at 30, and every day since that point i havent stopped enjoying life. i started to write and have been on the best-sellers（畅销书） list for the last two months. things have definitely turned around.change is a good thing; it gives
