In September, something terrible happened on the west coast ofTasmania,Australia. As many as 380 pilot
whales became stranded(搁浅) in shallow water there and later died. This might have beenAustralia’s largest
stranding event on record, the BBC reported.
But this large amount of whale stranding is not uncommon. For centuries, it has happened all over the world
and has puzzled scientists. Scientists say the cause is often unknown. But they have offered many different
explanations.
Some say the whales chase small fish for food and end up in shallow water because they are not paying
attention to where they are going.
Others think the stranding has something to do with Earth’s geomagnetic field (地磁场). They say that a
geomagnetic compass in whales’ brains controls their position. Unusual changes in Earth’s magnetic field can
affect the whales’ compasses and send them in the wrong direction.
Another explanation suggests that stranding is caused by the close relationships that whales have. Pilot
whales travel in large groups. One lead whale might mistakenly lead the whole group to shallow water. “And if one
gets into trouble, the others will not leave,” said Sheryl Gibney, a leading biologist fromNew Zealand. “Some will
come in and try to help, they get trapped on the beach, then more will come.”
The whales are trapped by mistake or out of sympathy(同情). Once they get stranded, they will likely die.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of theUS, less than 10 percent of all stranded
whales survive.

In 1990, Hal Donaldson was 23 years old, fresh out of college and found himself in Calcutta, India, where he
was asked to interview Mother Teresa.
Donaldson says about the great woman famed for feeding the hungry, “She wasn't wearing shoes and her
ankles were swollen. She sat down with me and was very polite.” After the interview, Mother Teresa asked him,
“What are you doing to help the poor?” Donaldson admitted that he was young and wasn't focused on helping
others. With a smile on her face, Mother Teresa said, “Everyone can do something.”
Those words deeply struck Donaldson and forced him to face some hard truths about himself.
Hal Donaldson grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. When he was 12 years old, his parents were hit by a
drunk driver; his father died, and his mother was seriously injured. To make ends meet, they went on welfare.
Donaldson says, “I had holes in my shoes and clothes. When you're teased at school for that, you just want to
escape.”
He managed to do just that. Donaldson got into college and turned his focus to making money for himself He
says, “I was just trying to find my way out of insignificance. However, it's easy to overlook others along the way. I
was the guy that would see a homeless person and cross the street, so I didn'thave to confront (面对) him. My
focus was on climbing to the top instead of helping those trying to climb with me.”
Donaldson returned home from India with a different thought. He traveled to eight cities in America and
stayed on the streets and listened tostories of the homeless. “My heart broke,” he says. “I knew I could no longer
just live for myself.”
Inspired by Mother Teresa's words and the stories he'd heard across America. Donaldson loaded a pick-up
truck with $300 worth of groceries and handed them out to anyone who needed help. In 1994, Donaldson created
the nonprofit organization, Convoy for Hope, which works with communities across America and around the world. Their work focuses on feeding children, women's empowerment, helping farmers and disaster services.
4. What did 23-year-old Hal Donaldson do in India?
A. He attended an interview for a college. B. He fed the hungry with Mother Teresa.
C. He interviewed Mother Teresa. D. He did something to help the poor.
5. What can we learn about Hal Donaldson from paragraph 4?
A. He was born with disability. B. He led a hard life as a child.
C. He was well treated at school. D. He survived as a parentless boy.

I once taught in a small private school. Each morning at nine o’clock all the students, ranging in age from
three to seven years old, gathered in the Great Room for a warm-up in preparation for the day.
One morning the headmistress made an announcement to all the children gathered,“Today we begin a great
experiment of the mind.” She held up two ivy(常春藤) plants, each potted in an identical container. She continued,
“Do they look the same?”
All the children nodded. So did I, for, in this way, I was alsoa child.
“We will give the plants the same amount of light, the same amount of water, but not the same amount of
attention,” She said. “Together we are going to see what will happen when we put one plant in the kitchen away

In his 402nd anniversary year, Shakespeare is still rightly celebrated as a great language master and writer.
But he was not the only great master of play writing to die in 1616, and he is certainly not the only writer to have
left a lasting influence on theater.
While less known worldwide, Tang Xianzu is considered one of Chinas greatest playwrights and is highly
spoken of in that country of ancient literary and dramatic traditions.
Tang was born in 1550 inLinchuan,Jiangxiprovince. Unlike Shakespeare's large body of plays,poems and
sonnets (十四行诗), Tang wrote only four major plays: The Purple Hairpin, Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), A Dream
under the Southern bough, and Dream of Handan. The latter three were constructed around a dream narrative, a
