【题目】 Jeff Corwin is a scientist and author. He does these jobs with one life goal: to help save animals and their habitats. His latest book, 100 Heartbeats: The Race to Save Earth's Most Endangered Species, is a collection of stories about animals on the edge(边缘) of extinction. Corwin recently talked to TFK kid reporter Sarah Horbacewicz.

Reporter: How would you describe your job?

Corwin: My job is to travel around, look at animals and tell their stories.

Reporter: When did you know this is what you wanted to do?

The day that I saw my very first wild snake, I knew that's what I would do for the rest of my life. I didn't know if I would be a teacher or a zookeeper, but I know I would have a life connected with (……有关) nature.

Reporter: Why did you write the book?

Corwin: We're losing species(物种) very fast. I wanted to show people that while we are in a very serious situation, we are not at the point of no return. If we make big changes, we may have the chance to save what remains.

【题目】 Have you ever tried to write a poem(诗,诗歌)? It’s easier than you might think. Just pick up a pen and begin practicing. Here are the steps to write a poem.

Choose your topic.1 Some people can start writing poems without really deciding what to write about; when their pen or pencil hits the paper, the words just flow (畅流). Most people, on the other hand, need a topic and as a beginner, this is the best way to start. It’s easier to write a good poem about something you know well or you have experienced.

Free write for five minutes about your topic. Then go back and read it. Are any words or expressions especially good? 2 For example, if you are describing something (a bird), write down descriptive words about it (looks, colors), and the kind of story you would like to tell about (the bird fell out of a tree). If you are writing about an event in your life, write down your feelings and thoughts of that event.

Write your poem. Remember, a poem doesn’t have to rhyme(押韵).3 But it should show your feelings of the topic. And it should sound nice to you.

Have a friend read your poem aloud to you.

4 If not, go back and rewrite the parts you don’t like.

5 Read it to others. Read it aloud to yourself. Put it somewhere if you want.

A. Do you like the way it sounds?

B. Mark(作记号) them and use them in your poem.

C. Enjoy your poem.

D. What would you like your poem to be about?

E. It doesn’t have to use sentences, either.

F. It’s very easy to write a poem.

G. Read your poems loudly when you are free.
