　　I first met my darling Chita in February 1996. I owned a pet store and her parents brought her to the store with a sore leg. She was a teacup Chihuahua (吉娃娃), ouple to take her to the vet.

　　The next week the young man brought Chita back again with his mother, and he was in tears. He had broken up with his girlfriend and had to sell his little dog. I took a look at her and told the young fellow I would find her a very good home. She has been with us ever since.

　　In all those years we have only had one night when she didn't sleep with me. I had to go away for a Christmas party and during the time I was away I called home at least five times. We decided to change her name, and, as she was a little fireball, we called her Conchita.

　　Once she was knocked out by one of the other dogs when they were all rushing to greet us on arriving home. I gave her mouth－to－mouth breaths and little heart pushes on the way to the vet. She was all right after check, we went to the vet again. After blood tests and a lot of worry, she passed wind and was OK after that. That was the most expensive “fart(屁 in history!

　　She is getting on now and is totally deaf and cannot see very well. She can still find her way down the stairs we built for her to get off the bed, but she can't get back up, so she does a little tap dance on the floor to wake me up and I put her back in bed.

　　While e－books are on the rise, k could turn into a tree? Now thanks to a Brazilian children's book publisher, that is possible, at least for one book!

　　The “Tree Book Tree” program is the thought of Argentina's Pequeno Editor and FCB Buenos Aires. Their first creation Mi Pap Estuvo en la Selva (My father Was In the Jungle), has been around in regular format for many years. In the book, a young boy takes the readers on an exciting journey of his father's adventures inside an Ecuadorian jungle.

　　The book that is made from acid－free paper, printed with natural ink and hand－stitch(手工缝合), (蓝花楹) seeds are carefully sewn into the pages to help it transform into a tree.(over and over again), he or she waters the cover and places it in a sunny area inside the house. Once the seeds sprout, the book can be planted in the dirt in any location the owner decides. From then on, the book just has to be nurtured like any other plant. Franco says they picked the Jacaranda, because “It's a tree that provides excellent shade and offers oxygen to the environment.”

　　The only unfortunate part is that the publishers are not planning to transform their other books or even make more copies of this “tree book”. This non－commercial project was just a one－time project to make everyone aware of the resources used when producing something even as common as a book.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。 一个阿根廷人发明了一种用特殊材料制作成的新型环保书。小孩子在看完这本书以后可以把这本书当成一个种子通过培养和照顾让它长成新C)28.

　　B. Put the book away on a shelf.

　　C. Use the book to protect flowers.

　　Hot weather is closely associated with clinic visits among migratory farm workers compared to other patients, according to a study by researchers at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UT Health).

　　Lead author Kai Zhang, Ph.D., used data from the Community and Migrant Health Center in Colorado to compare clinic visits among migratory farm workers, seasonal farm workers and non－farm workers. Migratory farm workers are those who travel for agricultural work while seasonal farm workers do not change homes or travel away from their established homes for work. Heat has a significant impact on migratory farm workers, (臭氧) levels from the US Environmental Protection Agency(EPA). When Zhang compared hot days to average days, sits among seasonal farm workers when temperature and ozone levels are high.

　　“Migratory workers are more susceptible to heat－related health issues for several possible reasons. They tend to have poorer living environments, r conditioning; suffer from poverty, which has been linked to a higher risk of exposure to heat; and may lack family support for prolonged periods of time. Also, their immigration status may make them more likely to suffer from labor abuses, ” said Zhang.

　　“Hot weather greatly affects the health of migratory farm workers. This research suggests possible significant impact of heat on migratory farm workers and provides justification (正当的理由) for undertaking further studies, at preventive programs，” said Zhang.

　　W: Excuse me, Sir, do you have a minute?

　　M: Sure, is anything wrong?

　　W: I've made a tough decision, Sir. I want to quit my job. Here is my resignation.

　　M: To be honest, I'm quite surprised. What is the exact reason? Dissatisfied with the salary, or having trouble getting along with your colleagues?

　　W: Neither. Actually, it's because I feel exhausted doing the job.

　　M: Is there any possible way to change your mind, like a promotion?

　　W: Thank you, but I just want to have a good rest.

　　M: What about a two－week holiday with full pay? From tomorrow to July 31st.Really? Thank you so much. I would like to accept that.

　　W: Hey Michael, I'm tired. Would you mind driving for a while?

　　M: Sorry. I would like to, but I don't know how to drive.

　　W: Really? You don't have a license? I thought everyone had a license.

　　M: No, I've lived in cities all my life and when I'm at home I usually take the subway or bus.

　　W: I see. Do you think you'll learn to drive in the future?

　　M: Yes. I plan to buy a car next year. I think I need one in the U．S.Actually, a lot of people in cities here take the bus, too.

　　M: Well, I'd like to travel more. I've been here for a few months already and I feel like I haven't seen anything yet.

　　W: How are you going to learn to drive? Do you want me to teach you?

　　M: No thanks, I wouldn't want to trouble you. I've already signed up for a class near my house. It starts next month.

　　W: You would never believe it, but Adele is going to give a concert in our city next month!

　　M: Really? It's too good to be true! I'm a big fan of hers. Her song, Rolling in the Deep, is amazing!

　　W: Yes, her beautiful voice makes it difficult not to fall in love with her. I like her song, Someone Like You, best.

　　M: I think the sooner we get the tickets, the better. Do you have any idea of how much they cost?

　　W: The ordinary seats are selling for 1，000 yuan each; guest seats are priced at 1，500 yuan each; and the VIP seats cost 2，500 yuan each.

　　M: So, two tickets for ordinary seats, right?

　　W: But I would prefer two guest seats, and then we can have a much better view. It's within our budget. Also, there is a 10% discount if we buy two guest seats.

　　M: OK, you decide. Shall we buy the tickets at the ticket office or over the telephone?

　　W: I think online booking would be more convenient.

　　M: All right.

　　W: Another piece of good news for you! Adele is going to sing her new song, Skyfall, during the concert.

　　M: Wow! I can't wait to hear it.

　　A burial place in Washington，DC is using goats instead of poison to remove weeds.

　　In recent years, many weeds have grown in the cemetery. Officials do not want to use poisons to kill the weeds. The cemetery is near the Anacostia River. Officials have worked for many years to remove pollutants from the river, which runs through the city.

　　Lauren Maloy is the program director at the cemetery. She says because it is close to the river, “We are always looking for ways to make sure that we are sustainable, that we are not using pesticides that might hurt the environment.” So cemetery officials have decided to use goats. The animals are less costly than chemicals and do not hurt the environment. And the goat eats a lot of weeds.

　　The animals are owned by Mary Bowen, a farmer. She operates a company called Browsing Green Goats. The cemetery pays her company more than US $11，000 to have the goats remove unwanted plants from each hectare of the cemetery. But Mary Bowen says that is about half the cost of using poisons. An electronic fence keeps the goats from leaving the cemetery. Mary Bowen says she examines the fence every day. She says she has not lost a goat in five years. She hopes that the goats will help more people understand that they can keep their property free of weeds without hurting the environment.
