　　When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness？

　　Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever  26  the wolves' world? If you had, you would  27  the wolves.

　　In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about  28 than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 29 full use of the shape of land to  30 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be    31   experts good at fighting.

　　The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand  32 . Each wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A  33  wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves  34  nothing. All the wolves obey the rules.  35  they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork  36  makes wolves powerful.

　　The wolves also have great self-respect and won't  37 to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book “The Wolf Totem”,38 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To his 39 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with  40  wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was 41   and he never gave in, fighting  42  his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.

　　I was shocked by this kind of 43  : wolves are one of the most respected creatures on earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a  44way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and  45  in this not simple and dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!

　　IS IT TIME TO GET MP3?

　　Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC (personal computer) if they’re in the MP3 format.

　　What is it?

　　MP3 compresses music into small computer friendly files. You access MP3 music several ways : Music can be downloaded from websites that have converted vast music libraries into MP3. Or you can prerecord CDs into your PC and convert songs in minutes into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive, you can play it through your computer’s speakers, “burn” it onto blank CDs or exchange MP3 files with friends using E-mail.

　　How much?

　　Software needed to play and convert MP3 music is often free. It comes preinstalled on most new computers or can be downloaded from many websites, including MP3. com. Some MP3 sites are free. Just type “MP3 sites” into any search engine. The popular MP3 players start at around $50and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.

　　Advantages

　　MP3 turns your home PC into a tape recorder. Tiny MP3 players are the size of a card, making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.

　　Disadvantages

　　You may find that music at many sites is limited. And some only allow you to listen rather than download offerings. Others let you download music that then can’t be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.

　　46. How can you get MP3 music?

　　A. By turning your home PC into a tape recorder             

　　B. By taking your own music or songs with you

　　C. By copying songs to a PC through the speakers.
