    One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear – producing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.
    Each of us had a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment（蚕食）?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.
    Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive（认知的）skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents—and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters（培养）leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three – year – old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.
    Kids are not to blame. They are over – protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite（仪式）of passage.
    Everyone from developers to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement（增强）love, respect and need for the landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.

    Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.
    I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father  21 me to her with these words: “I would like you to meet the fellow who is  22 for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no  23 than tomorrow morning.”
    My stepmother walked over to me, raised my head slightly  24 , and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and  25 , “You are wrong. This is not the worst boy at all,  26 the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet（释放的途径）for his enthusiasm.”
    That statement began a(n)   27 between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my  28 as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.
    She changed many things. She   29  my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more  30 and my brothers and I could be better educated.
    When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand  31 and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I  32 it, and I saw how it had already improved our lives. I accepted her  33 and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of  34 that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the  35 beneficiary (受益者). My father became the  36 man in town. My brothers and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.
    What power  37 has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is  38 strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible（不可抗拒的）force which poverty and temporary defeat can never  39 .
    You can communicate that power to  40 who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.

    I was driving home one evening about 5, stuck in traffic, and the car started to die— I hardly managed to get into a gas station, glad only that I would have a somewhat warm spot to wait for the tow truck(拖车). Before I could make the call, I saw a woman walking out of the “ Quickie Mart” building, then suddenly she slipped(滑倒) on some ice and fell down, so I got out to see if she was okay.
    When I got there, it looked like she had been overcome by weep than that she had fallen; she was a young woman who looked exhausted with dark circles under her eyes. She dropped something as I helped her up, and I picked it up and gave it to her. It was a coin.
    At that moment, everything came into focus for me: the crying woman, the ancient Suburban packed full of stuff and three kids in the back, and the gas pump(汽油泵) reading $4.95.
    I asked her if she was okay and if she needed help, and she just kept saying “I don’t want my kids to see me crying,” so we stood at the other side of the pump from her car. She said she was driving to California for Christmas and that things were very hard for her right now.
    I took out my credit card and swiped(刷磁卡) it through the card reader on the pump so that she could fill up her car completely, and I bought 2 big bags of food for her kids in the car who attacked it like wolves. While it was fueling, she asked, “So, are you an angel or something?” I said, “At this time of year, angels are really busy, so sometimes God uses common people.”
    It was unbelievable to be part of someone else’s miracle. And of course, you guessed it, when I got in my car it started right away and got me home with no problem. Sometimes, angels fly close enough to you that you can hear the flutter(摆动) of their wings.

    A．she could fill up her car to get home in time

    A．the author was driving carelessly on the way home
    B．the young woman was interested in long driving
    C．the young woman didn’t want to see her kids crying

      One night last February, a seventeen-year-old Duffy drove home along a winding road, he saw a strange light thrown against the tree. “I knew it wasn’t the moon”, he said. “I drive this road all the time and I notice little things out of place.”
    Duffy stopped his car and got out to examine. Below him far down in the deep valley lay a broken car with its headlights on. Thirty minutes earlier, a man had driven off the edge of the road, which has no guardrail. His car fell and rolled end over end, landing on its top more than two hundred feet below.

    Shu Pulong has helped at least 1000 people bitten (咬) by snakes, “ It was seeing people with snake bites (伤口) that led me to this career,” he said.
    In 1963, after his army service, Shu entered a medical school and later became a doctor of Chinese medicine. As part of his studies he had to work in the mountains. There he often heard of people who had their arms and legs cut off after a snake bite in order to save their lives.
    “I was greatly upset by the story of an old farmer I met. It was a very hot afternoon. The old man was pulling grass in his fields when he felt a pain in his left hand. He at once realized he had been bitten by a poisonous snake. In no time he wrapped a cloth tightly around his arm to stop the poison spreading to his heart. Rushing home he shouted ‘bring me the knife!’ Minutes later the man lost his arm forever.”
    “The sad story touched me so much that I decided to devote myself to helping people bitten by snakes,” Shu said.
