25、and the University of Al-Azhar was founded. At Al-Azhar, there were many university firsts. Courses were created. The earliest ones taught at Al-Azhar were in law and religion.

32、 go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They dont know their real names, ages, and even sex (性别). They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they cant put their heart into study. Many of them cant

Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater. Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped o
38、nto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free. Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of
39、her fingers. “This could have been a fatal（致命的） and tragic（不幸的） situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.

When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration（
44、迁移）is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind
45、 of mice. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea. Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobsters（龙虾）. Every year, when
46、 the season of bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.
