Six years ago, Josh and his dad went into a Habitat for Humanity Restore, a home improvement store and donation center run by the nonprofit organization. They were there to buy a sink. Josh, then 11, also noticed a collection of pennies. “I instantly felt the urge to help out with that,” he said. Josh set fundraising (筹款) deadline of four years. Many people doubted whether he could reach his goal of $100,000, but it didn’t’ shake his faith. He raised money at his school and other nearby schools He collected money from neighbors, got publicity from local newspapers, and placed cans in stores so that people could donate extra change.

Josh’s fundraising efforts began to produce results. Still, there were challenges. Four months before his deadline, he was $30,000 short. He decided to hold a Family Fun Fair and Spaghetti Dinner in Uxbridge, which is in the province of Ontario. The event raised $19,000.

“I didn’t care how long it took me,” Josh said. “I would raise $100,000.” With three weeks left, a company called Josh’s house offering to donate $18,000.

Josh has helped with some of the construction, as have other volunteers. He will choose the family that moves into the unit.

Next year, the 17-year-old will head to college in British Columbia, Canada’s westernmost province. As a 11-year-old kid when starting fundraising.

“Fighting like cats and dogs” is a common phrase that people use to mean people argue, fright or don’t get along. If you like cartoons, you’ve probably seen many that describe cats and dogs fighting like sworn enemies (不共戴天的仇敌). There have even been movies made that describe cats against dogs.

As with many questions in life, there’s simply no easy answer to the question of whether dogs and cats can get along. Dogs and cats are different in many ways that can make it difficult for them to get along. However, with patience and the right circumstances, cats and dogs can be best buds (兄弟).

For example, dogs tend to be social animals that are naturally playful. Cats, on the other hand, tend to be more independent. A dog that wants to play might seem aggressive and frightening to a cat. This may lead the cat to defend itself against an attack although that’s really just a desire to play. Similarly, dogs—especially puppies—like to chase each other. It’s a fun game. Chasing cats can be just as fun as chasing other dogs. Again, cats may interpret such playful behavior as a threat.

Even there’s something dogs and cats have in common, tails, but tails can make things confusing. When dog wags (摇摆) its tail, it’s sending a friendly message: “I’m happy. Let’s play.” Cats, however, wag their tails when they are angry. You can see how this might lead cats and dogs to become confused if they’re facing each other with wagging tails!

Although dogs and cats aren’t really sworn enemies dogs are hunters by nature. This means that they might hunt and chase anything that moves-including a cat. This natural behavior that could cause problems between dogs and cats can be controlled by special training called socialization when the animals meet for the first time.

1.By saying “fighting like cats and dogs”, parents most probably mean that ________.

A.they like neither cats nor dogs

B.their kids don’t get on well with each other

C.cats and dogs fight like sworn enemies

D.the fights between cats and dogs are often made into movies

2.What may happen when dogs are chasing cats?

A.Dogs become tired out. B.Cats are very happy.

C.Dogs feel enjoyable. D.Cats get injured easily.

3.Which of the following may be one of the reasons that dogs and cats fight often?

A.They couldn’t understand each other. B.They are worried about their behaviors.

C.They enjoy exactly the same hobbies. D.They wag their tails too often.

4.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.Dogs are good at hunting animals.

B.Dogs don’t like cats naturally.

C.Cats usually like playing with dogs.

D.Dogs and cats can possibly live in harmony.

First and foremost, “The Great Salmon Run (鲑鱼洄游)” looks amazing. It is beautifully filmed, done in completely natural and sometimes friendly way and never looking still. The editing is always brief and smooth and the scenery is pure magic. A wide diversity of the different landscapes are included rather than just one habitat. The music fits very well, beautiful and appropriate.

Again, like so many Attenborough’s nature/wildlife documentaries, “The Great Salmon Run” fascinates, teaches, moves, entertains and attracts. In terms of the facts there is a very good mix of the known ones and the unknown. Some facts are familiar to us while some are going into details about the different animals, their challenges and some truly amazing wildlife events in their struggles for survival and interaction with other animals whether prey (猎物) or predator (捕食者).

Certainly the salmon are a thing of beauty but the brown bears similarly have impressive moments as well. It may not be novel territory for Attenborough, but animals are what one can’t get enough of. Besides, there is so much freshness to the material that it won’t make one feel going round in circles but absorbed.

Narration (解说) by Attenborough helps significantly. He clearly knows his stuff and knows what to say and how to say it. He delivers it with his usual richness, soft-spoken enthusiasm and sincerity, never talking down to the viewer and keeping them wanting to know more. Viewers care for what goes on in front of and behind the camera.

At no point does “The Great Salmon Run” ever feel like just a series of scenes. Instead, it feels like its own story and journey, with real, complex emotions and conflicts and animal characters, all of which are developed in a way a human character would in a film.

Overall, amazing.

1.The writer thinks in narration, Attenborough ________.

A.changes his usual style

B.keeps the viewers interested

C.ignores what the viewers want to know

D.thinks what to say is more important than how to say it

2.According to the passage, what do we know about The Great Salmon Run?

A.It not only entertains.

B.It is set in only one main habitat.

C.It is Attenborough’s finest work.

D.It focuses on the struggle between the salmon and man.

3.What is the writer’s attitude towards The Great Salmon Run?

A.He considers it average. B.He is negative about it.

C.He holds an objective view. D.He thinks highly of it.

4.The passage is probably a ________.

A.journal B.travel guide

C.film review D.science report
