25、ck has always been my closest friend these past five years. As you already know, there are a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly burnt by fire each year. This hot summer, not far from our house, a forest caught fire. It was in July and a heat wave had been going on f
26、or three days. Luck rushed towards the forest because of the burning heat. There was no longer any hope at that moment to wait for Luck to come back. Suddenly, a fireman ran into my house and told me that my dog Luck succeeded in saving four cats that were caught in the fire. According to the firema
27、n, Luck caught the cats, moving them one by one into a safe place.I ran out of the house and went with the firemen to the forest to pick up the saved cats. When we arrived, Luck was not there. Then we heard the sound of a dog coming from the forest barking (犬吠). I knew it was the sound of my dog Luc
28、k. The firemen followed the tracks (踪迹) of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of a hurt fireman who was hopelessly lying on the ground and waiting for someone to save him. Thanks to Luck, four cats and a fireman were saved. That day, I was very proud of Luck for his two heroic a
29、ctions. Later I paid a visit to the fireman in his house with my lovely Luck. It was such a memorable scene when the fireman held Luck close to his chest! “One thousand thanks, Luck, for saving my life,” the fireman said.49.

Lucks heroic actions.CChildren with autism (孤独症) have difficulty with social skills and communication. They often act in limited and repeated ways and have what seem like un
32、usual strong interests.Autism is more often seen in boys than girls. What causes it is not clear. Scientists are studying DNA and possible environmental influences.Doctors usually cannot confirm a diagnosis (确诊) of autism until a child is about three years old. Rebecca Landa is a researcher at the K
33、ennedy Krieger Institute. Professor Landa wanted to find out what differences in development might be seen earlier. She led a new study that observed 235 babies between 6 and 36 months of age.“At six months of age, when you lay your baby on their back and you pull them by the arms gently into a seat
34、ed place, the babys head may nod back behind the shoulders, like poor head control. But that does not mean that the baby is going to have autism. It does mean the baby needs to have some exercises to help their body get stronger. And when the babies strengthen their bodies, they are better able to p
35、lay with toys and also with people, which will help them have better outcomes.”By the time a baby is one year old, signs of possible autism include difficulty in using words and not looking eye-to-eye or reaching out to other people. By 14 months, the baby might smile less and use language less. How
36、ever, Professor Landa says these signs can be very small and their children might be missed during a short health exam.“Its important for parents to pay attention to their childrens development, and if they care about a childs development, they should listen to experts.”The earlier parents notice de
37、lays, she says, the sooner they can begin simple things that may help improve their childrens development. For example, they can talk to the children about what they are doing, give opinions when the children show them something, and play simple games that keep the childrens attention.52. Whats the

40、d back behind the shouldersB. have difficulty raising his or her headC. dislike to communicate with othersD. like reaching out to other peopleDScientists have found that migrating (迁徙) birds fly not just in groups all the time, but in “V” formation and they have also tried to find out what good poin
41、ts birds get from this “V” formation. Now, a research group from the University of London may have found the answer migrating birds fly in a “V” to save energy, according to a study published in the journal Nature.When a bird flaps (拍打) its wings, it makes the air move in different directions. Scien
42、tists found in the study that the air creates an upward-moving wave at the tips of the wings (翼尖), which means that if a bird flies around the wingtips of another bird, it can get some help from the rising air and then they can use less energy to stay in the air.But there is a small problem the lead
43、 bird gets no lift advantage and can easily get tired. This is why a group of migrating birds change their leaders from time to time, according to The New York Times. Scientists were also surprised to see that migrating birds timed their wing beats and changed their places in a very simple way to ma
44、ke the most of the lifting effect while avoiding areas where the air moved downward.“Theyre able to sense whats going on from the bird in front, where this good air is coming from and how to help themselves perfectly in it,” lead researcher Steven Portugal told BBC.In fact, the “V” formation has lon
45、g been thought to help birds fly more efficiently (有效地) without wasting too much energy. Jet fighters (战斗机) were also found to be able to reduce their energy use by up to 18% by staying near the wingtips of other Jet fighters. Both of these findings led scientists to wonder that the “V” formation had an efficiency purpose, but until now they still dont have enough facts to show what they are thinking about is really true.“For scientists, the new study provides an insight into an interesting natural thing.
