9、adults worry that youre more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you.

Are todays teenagers too busy texting and taking self
10、ies to become successful in real life or “IRL”, as you would say?Other adults worry that todays youth are spoilt (宠坏的) and dont want to face the challenges of adult life.

Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move
17、to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruffs granddaughter.
18、 Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful.

20、ir-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms.

24、port.B. A book review.C. A childrens story.D. A diary entry.DMany people think that hippos (河马) are cute and funny-looking. They are really fat and they have short, thick legs. They also have little round ears that wiggle (摆动) sometimes.Hippos look funny, but you shouldnt judge a book by its cover.

26、us animals, but there are some situations that make them even more dangerous than normal. They are very territorial. That means that they stay in one area which they consider to be their private area. If a person or animal enter a hippos area, the hippo will attack. Hippos also often attack when the
27、y are returning to the water. Hippos eat on land and return to water at dusk. If a hippo sees an animal when its returning to the water, it will become violent.Hippos are so strong that they often kill crocodiles. There are two reasons that explain why hippos and crocodiles often fight. First of all
28、, hippos and crocodiles live in the same areas. Since hippos are territorial, they dont like having crocodiles nearby. Also, crocodiles often eat young hippos. For that reason, adult hippos frequently kill crocodiles.Mother and daughter hippos have close relationships. However, hippos dont have any
29、other close relationship with each other. Hippos often live together in large groups, but scientists dont know why. Its hard to study the behaviour of male and female hippos, because males and females look the same.Hippos are violent, but they are herbivores. A herbivore is an animal that eat only p
