8、 heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful. I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰 ) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety. 3 I examined the
9、chick(雏鸟 ) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree. The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and co
10、mfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down. Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start
11、calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring. A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and sa

15、 ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue(疲劳 ) To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we w
16、ould find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素 ) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day. So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at
17、the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired? Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情感的 ) attitudes. One of Englands most outstanding scientists, J A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of me
18、ntal origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr.Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of a sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.” 5 What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Sat
19、isfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated those are the emotions that tire sitting workers.

UNESC
23、O (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying (联合 ) voice across cultures. Despite the celebrations, though, in the U. S. the jazz audience continues to shrink an
24、d grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations. Its Jason Morans job to help change that. As the Kennedy Centers artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture. “Jazz seems like i
25、ts not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radios reporter Neal Conan. “What Im hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. Its actually color, and its actually digital.” Moran sa
26、ys one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music cant be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran. Last year, Moran worked on a project that a
27、rranged Fats Wallers music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, its the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感 ) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(领悟 )on how to talk ab
28、out ourselves and how something as abstract as a 7 Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster. ” 12. Why did
29、UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day? A. To remember the birth of jazz. B. To protect cultural diversity. C. To encourage people to study music. D. To recognize the value of jazz. 13. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Jazz becoming more accessible. B. The prod
30、uction of jazz growing faster. C. Jazz being less popular with the young. D. The jazz audience becoming larger. 14. What can we infer about Morans opinion on jazz? A. It will disappear gradually. B. It remains black and white. C. It should keep up with the times. D. It changes every 50 years. 15. Wh
31、ich of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Exploring the Future of jazz. B. The Rise and Fall of jazz. C. The Story of a jazz Musician. D.
