6、:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. 2Following Janes way or studying chimps, our group are all going to visit them in the forest. 3Jane has studied these families of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans. 4Watching

7、a family of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day. 5This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. 6Everybody sits and waits in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. 7Then we follow as they wander into the

8、forest. 8Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. 9Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. 10However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. 11We watch the mother chimp and her babies

9、play in the tree. 12Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. 13We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family.14Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. 15She spent years observing and recording their daily activitie

10、s. 16Since her childhood she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. 17However, this was not easy. 18When she first arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. 19Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to begin

11、 her project. 20Her work changed the way people think about chimps. 21For example, one important thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. 22Until then everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. 23She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and them eating it. 24

12、She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system.25For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. 26She has argued that wild a

13、nimals should be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. 27She has helped to set up special places where they can live safely. 28She is leading a busy life but she says:29”Once I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. 30Its terrible. 31It

15、onment, gaining a doctors degree and showing that women can live in the forest as men can. 37She inspires those who want to cheer the achievements of women.WHY NOT CARRY ON HER GOOD WORK?1I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I choose to study at university? 2I di

16、d not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China.3By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi, a specialist in womens diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. 4It seemed that she had been very busy in her chose

17、n career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. 5One of them caught my eye. 6It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. 7She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean, healthy and free from sickness.8Why dis

18、 she write that?9Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice?10I looked carefully at the text and realized that it was intended for women in the countryside.11Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.12Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to ge

19、t medical training at that time. 13That was a generation when girls education was always placed second to boys.14Was she so much cleverer than anyone else?15Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school.16What ma

20、de her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. 17There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired after a days work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.18By now I could not wait to find out more about her.19I

21、discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her own. 20Instead she made sure that about 50000 babies were safely delivered. 21By this time I was very excited. 22Why not study at medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good w

23、注意。 6.这是一本小册子，解释从生育和照顾婴儿方面如何降低死亡率。 7.她提出了一些简单的规则来保持婴儿的干净，健康，远离疾病。 8.她为什么要写那个？ 9.林巧稚认为需要建议的女人是谁？ 10.我仔细看了看课文，意识到这是为农村妇女写的。11.如果他们有紧急情况，他们可能找不到医生。12.突然间，我觉得一个女人在那时接受医学训练是多么困难。13.那一代女孩教育总是排在男孩的第二位.14.她比任何人都聪明吗？ 15.进一步的阅读使我认识到，这是艰苦的工作和决心，以及她的温柔的性质，使她进入医学院。 16.后来她成功的原因是她对所有病人的关心和体贴。 17.有一则故事讲述了林巧稚在一天的工作后

25、ngping considers himself a farmer, for he works the land to do his research. 2Indeed, his sunburnt face and arms and his slim, strong body are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers, for whom he has struggled for the past five decades. 3Yuan Longping grows what is called super hybrid rice. 4

26、In 1973, he became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow rice that has a high output. 5This special strain of rice makes it possible to produce 20% more of the crop in the same fields. 6Now more than 60% of the rice produced in China each year is from this hybrid strain.7Born in 1930,

27、Yuan Longping graduated from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953. 8Since then, finding ways to grow more rice has been his life goal. 9As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice output. 10At that time, hunger was a disturbing problem in many parts of the country side.11 Yuan Lo

28、ngping searched for a way to increase rice harvests without expanding the area of the fields.12 In 1950, Chinese farmers could produce about fifty-six million tons of rice. 13In a recent harvest, however, nearly two hundred million tons of rice was produced. 14These in creased harvests mean that 22%

29、 of the worlds people are fed from just 7% of the farmland in the world. 15Yuan longping is now circulating his knowledge in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries to increase their rice harvests. 16Thanks to his research, the UN has more tools in the battle to rid the world of hunge

30、r. 17Using his hybrid rice, farmers are producing harvests twice as large as before.18Yuan Longping is quite satisfied with his life. 19However, he doesnt care about being famous.20 He feels it gives him less freedom to do his research. 21He would much rather keep time for his hobbies. 22He enjoys l

31、istening to violin music, playing mah-jong, swimming and reading. 23Spending money on himself or leading a comfortable life also means very little to him. 24Indeed, he believes that a person with too much money has more rather than fewer troubles. 25He therefore gives millions of yuan to equip other

32、s for their research in agriculture.26Just dreaming for things, however, costs nothing. 27Long ago Yuan Longping had a dream about rice plants as tall as sorghum. 28Each ear of rice was as big as an ear of corn and each grain of rice was as huge as a peanut. 29He awoke from his dream with the hope of producing a kind of rice that co
