But as luck would have it for the frightened wild ducklings that had lost their mother, the dog that helped them out of the bushes had only their best interests at heart.

Duke, a one-year-old German shepherd, found the two ducklings hidden in long grass next to his owner’s workplace on the edge of the Thronybank Industrial Estate in Dalkeith．

   And despite the natural instincts of a hunter, the dog gently took them in its mouth and carried them back to his blanket, putting them down where it was warm and even washing them clean with his tongue.

The ducklings will be looked after by staff at the center until they are old enough to be released into the wild.

“This dog is a modern day Rin Tin Tin,( The world’s most famous German shepherd dog) and to pick them up in his mouth without harming them is quite something．“To them try and wash them is just amazing behavior.” said one of the staff.

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr．Kleitman has a new explanation．He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
    During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”．That’s true．The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak．For some people the peak comes during the forenoon．For others it comes in the afternoon or evening．No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar shouting as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening．Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
    You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better．Habit can help, Dr．Kleitman believes．Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway．Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to．If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour．This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.
    Get off to a slow start which saves your energy．Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch．Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor．Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before．Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
72．If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably__________

   A．he is a lazy person                                 B．he refuses to follow his own energy cycle

   C．he is not sure when his energy is low               D．he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening

73．Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?

   A．Unawareness of energy cycles．        

                  B．Familiar shouting.
C．A change in a family member’s energy cycle．

D．Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.

74．If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should_________

                  A．change his energy cycle               B．overcome his laziness
C．get up earlier than usual               D．go to bed earlier

75．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?

A．Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy
B．Dr．Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.
C．Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle
D．Children have energy cycles, too.

Dirty Britain

Before the grass has thickened on the roadside and leaves have started growing on the trees is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become．The pavements are stained with chewing gum that has been spat out and the gutters（the low part at the edge of a road where water collects and flows away:） are full of thrown away fast food cartons．Years ago I remember traveling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags, waste bottles at the edge of every road．Nowadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad．What has gone wrong?

   The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lot longer than before．If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in the bushes for years; a

semi-permanent reminder of what a shabby little country we have now．Firstly, it is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers．These will take anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot．However, it is not as if there is no solution to this．A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%．When he was a minister, Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain．The plastics industry protested, of course．However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before it could draw breath, leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.

   What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined initiative, both individual and collective, before it is too late．The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a

country that looks like a vast municipal rubbish tip．We may well be at the tipping point．Yet we know that people respond to their environment．If things around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily．If they are surrounded by dirt, they behave dirtily．Now, much of Britain looks pretty dirty．What will it look like in five years?

76．The writer says that it is a good time to see Britain before the trees have leaves because_______.

    A．Britain looks perfect．          B．you can see Britain at its dirtiest.

C．you can see how dirty Britain is now．             D．the grass has thickened on the roadside.

77．According to the writer, the major problem is that __________.

A．rubbish can not be cleared up                           B．rubbish lasts longer than it used to

C．our society is increasingly mobile                   D．people in Britain are dirty

78．What can be learned about Michael Meacher?

A．He followed the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.

B．He failed in his attempt to introduce a tax on plastic bags.

C．His attempt to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags was welcomed.

D．He had problems with the plastics industry who weren’t bothered about the tax.

79．What does the writer state in the last paragraph?

A．It’s too late for people to take immediate action.

B．There is more than one solution to the problem.

C．Britain will become an extremely dirty country in five years.

D．People tend to behave according to what they see around them.
