Outside, I heard the sounds of cats crying. I couldnt stop- I would have to look for the ca
13、ts after the fire was put out.It took a long time to finally bring the big fire under control. No one inside was hurt. At that point I was free to find out where the cat noises were from. There was still a lot of smoke and heat coming from the building. I followed the meowing to the sidewalk in fron
14、t of the garage. There, crying and huddled together, were five frightened kittens . They must have been inside the building, as their fur was badly hurt.I wanted to find the mother cat. It was obviously that she had gone into the burning garage and carried out all her babies, one by one-unbelievable
15、.We finally found her. Her paws and face were blackened, and her fur was burned all over. You could even see her reddened skin under the burned fur. She could hardly move.

16、her family.The veterinarian told me they would watch the kittens and their mother for the night, but they werent confident about the about the mothers chances.About a week later, I found out she was going to live.

21、? It seems as if your hands have aged 30 years i a second. But is this an accident? Or is it something that nature has built into our bodies?If your fingers wrinkling up had no use at all, “ it wouldnt need to.” Professor Tom Smulders from Newcastle University, UK, told BBC News. By studying wet fin
22、gers closely, Smulders and his partners found that the wrinkles looked a bit like the patterns on the car tire or o the bottom of the running shoes. So they made a guess that wrinkles on fingers might be able to help the hand hold things more tightly.To test this, researchers asked 20 people to pick
23、 up marbles from water with their hands. But before they started, some of the people had to keep their hands in water for half an hour.The researchers found that the people with wrinkled fingers completed the task the task faster than those with dry hands. But when they were asked to move dry marble
24、s, all the people performed equally well, no matter they had the wrinkled fingers or not.Our ancestors might not have played with marbles, but wrinkled fingers could have made it easier for them to climb around in the wet forests and catch fish from rivers, researchers say.Similarly, our toes also g
25、et wrinkled in water. This may have developed from our ancestors need to run on wet ground.But the question is, if wrinkled fingers are so helpful, why dont our hands just stay that way all the time? Researchers explained that wrinkling has its disadvantage: wet fingertips are far less sensitive tha

They cannot hold things tightly enough.D. They are not so sensitive as dry fingers.COne of sweetest memories as a child is of going down to
29、the river and sitting comfortably on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to songs of birds. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under the pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their original state after the wind had
30、died down.When I think about the bamboo trees ability to bend and move back, the word “resilience” comes to my mind. When it is used for a person, this word means the ability to readily recover(恢复) from shock, sadness or any other suffering. Have you ever felt like you were going to snap? Have you e
31、ver felt like you were at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived to talk about it.Life is a mixture(混合) of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point,
32、 bend, but dont break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.An amount of hope will take you through the unpleasant suffering.
