9、ears ago, I noticed a big black dog at our farm. I was very angry at his frequent turning up.

10、father. “We already have Mike. He wont allow another dog to enter this place.” A few days later, however, poor Mike was hit by a bus and died. “Had I listened to you,” my father said, “we would have been without a dog now!” Kalu didnt take long to prove himself useful. Whenever he spotted a rat, he
11、left everything aside even his food and dashed after it. At night when we slept, Kalu barked at the slightest noise like an alert (警惕的) guard. We had often heard about thieves in the area. One night at about 1:00 am, we were woken up by Kalus angry bark. “Could it be thieves?” my father whispered. M
12、y father shouted through a window: “Whos there?” No reply. Kalus growls grew angrier. Suddenly we heard a man cry out: “Save me from this beast! Armed with a stick, we went outside and saw that Kalu had pinned the man down on the ground. The man begged: “Save me, sir!” Most of his clothing had been
13、torn and his legs and hands were bloody. We managed to drag Kalu away. “Dont come here again,” my father ordered. The man disappeared into the darkness. As Kalu continued barking after the man, I saw my mother looking fondly at him through the window. Kalu got more popular in the family. Kalu lived
14、with us faithfully for over seven years. When he went missing for three days and was found dead because of eating something poisonous, we were shocked. Our farm seemed desolate without Kalu.

19、cks. But El Nino, meaning “little boy” in Spanish, could be about to cause trouble. A recent statement from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration warned of 3a strong El Nino event that may be similar to the strongest in modern times. Scientists believe that evidence shows a more tha
20、n 90 percent chance that it is coming and its going to be big. “If this lives up to its potential, this thing can bring a lot of floods, mudslides (泥石流), and trouble,” said Bill Patzert, a NASA scientist. El Nino is a climate event occurring in the Pacific Ocean. The wind usually blows strongly from
21、 east to west due to the rotation (旋转) of the Earth. This causes water to pile up in the Western Pacific and pulls up colder water from the bottom in the eastern part. However, in El Nino years, the winds pushing the water get weaker and cause the warmer water to shift back toward the east. This war
22、ms the ocean as it travels before finally reaching the shores of North and South America. In an El Nino event, the waters of the eastern Pacific can be up to 4 degrees Celsius warmer than usual. Most El Ninos last from 9 to 12 months and their effects are felt around December. They dont happen every
23、 year though, usually between every two to seven years. Last seen in 1997-98, El Nino caused severe droughts in Australia, the Philippines and Indonesia, as well as deadly floods in Peru and Ecuador. The world also heats up during an ElNino 1998 became the warmest year on record at the time. If the
24、current trend continues, 2015 is almost certainly to become the hottest year yet again. A strong El Nino also affects hurricane seasons around the planet. The warmer the Eastern Pacific is, the more hurricanes it gets. The Western Pacific, on the other hand, tends to see more and stronger typhoons.

29、stem) has become a life line, giving directions to the nearest bathroom or restaurant. But the price we pay for the convenience could be our sense of direction. “I do think GPS devices cause our navigational(导航) skills to atrophy,” said Nora Newcombe, a US psychologist who studies how the human brai
30、n navigates. “The problem is that you dont see an overview of the area and where you are in relation to other things.” To understand the risk, you first need to understand how our brain keeps us from getting lost.
