Between their pages, readers can be transported toanywhere imaginable and become just about anyoneor anything. Unluckily, manychildren all over the world dont have chances to read books!For se

23、veral years now, Maria Keller, a teenager from America, has been changingthat fact.When she was 8 years old, Maria already loved reading. She also noticed thatsome of her classmates didnt read as much as she did. When she asked her motherwhy that could be, her mother said that they might have no mon

24、ey to buy books. Mariahad never thought of this. She could not believe that some children might not havebedtime stories read to them. She decided to change this.With her mothers help, Maria set up Read Indeed. Read Indeed is a non-profit (非营利的) organization that is to collect and share books to chil

25、dren in need. During theearly stages of Read Indeed, Maria set the goal to collect and share 1 million books bythe time she was 18. It didnt take long to reach that goal!So far, she has collected over 2.4 million books and has sent them to many statesand countries like India, ChinaShe says, “I canno

26、t live without books. As I continuemy task, I have learned that the number of kids who have no books are in the hundredsof millions. So I just cant give up, even after reaching my goal of 1 million books.”She recently set a new goal: to give donations (捐赠) to kids in need in every statein the United

29、em like distinctly human traits (特征).Are these classic grandparent behaviors really limited to human beings? Do any animals know their grandparents the way people do? For most species (物种) on Earth,the answer is NO! “Usually, there just arent grandparents living anymore when an animal is born,” said

30、 Mirkka Lahdenper, a biologist at the University of Turku in Finland. Even if an animals grandparents are still alive, most species spread out to avoid competing for resources, so the chances of running into a grandparent are small.But there are a few exceptions, primarily among mammals (哺乳动物) that

31、live in close social groups. Canadian zoologist Anne Innis Dagg described groups of langur monkeys in India in which older females lived with their daughters and grandchildren. The grandmother langurs have a particular job: they protect the groups babies against hurt from humans, dogs and other monk

32、eys. Some female langurs even give their own grandchildren special treatment, cleaning their fur and stepping in when they play too roughly with other young.Many whale species, too, travel with their families,including both grandmothers and grandcalves. In groups of sperm whales, according to Dagg,

33、old females help babysit the groups young while their mothers dive (潜水) for food. Orca grandmothers often lead their family members and can live for many years after they stop reproducing. In 2015, scientists suggested that these elder orcas help their grandcalves through hard times, because they re

34、member all the best places to find food.Female elephants rule the whole family. Calves (幼崽) are typically born into groups led by their grandmothers, who can live to around 80 years old. The female elephants form close relationships, said Lahdenper, and raise their young together. Lahdenper found th

35、at the calves of young mothers were eight times more likely to survive if their grandmothers lived near them than if they didnt. When the calves mothers were older and more experienced at raising babies, this beneficial “grandmother effect” disappeared even if the actual grandmothers were still arou

36、nd.It isnt very clear how elephant grandmothers help their inexperienced daughters, said Lahdenper. It is believed that they may help nurse their grandcalves. But Lahdenper thinks that the more likely advantage is the wisdom a grandmother elephant has got during her long lifetime.And what about gran

37、dfathers? Studies of humans in recent years have shown that a living grandfather can improve a persons mental health and wellbeing, said Lahdenper.But there are signs of that in the animal kingdom, she said. Male animals seldom socialize with their own children, let alone grandchildren. “Males are u

38、sually focusing on producing their own children and arent providing so much care,” Lahdenper said.1From Paragraph 3, we know that orca grandmothers _.Adie after reproducingBteach the young to dive for foodChave rich experienceDenjoy travelling with grandfathers2The examples of monkeys, whales and el

39、ephants show that _.Athe “grandmother effect” lasts long in the animal worldBgrandmothers shoulder great responsibilities in their familiesCanimal grandfathers can improve grandcalves mental healthDmost species treat their grandparents like human beings do3Which of the following would be the best ti

40、tle for the passage?AAnimal grandparents are like human grandparentsBAnimal grandmas are born group leadersCAre animal grandmas given enough respect?DDo any animals know their grandparents?D16、A girl was walking in the woods when she found two weak birds. She took them home and put them in a small c

41、age (鸟笼). She took good care of them. The birds grew strong. Every morning, they greeted her with a beautiful song. The girl felt great love for the birds.

53、pics and exercises before class so that students can discuss them. Wang said that some students always talk.
