It was an extremely cold winter's evening and freezing fog hung in the air.

Port Lympne Reserve,which runs a breeding(繁育)programme,has welcomed the arrival of a rare black rhino calf(犀牛幼崽）. When the tiny creature arrived on January 31.she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve.And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival,especially as black rhinos are known for being difficult to breed in captivity(圈养).
Paul Beer,head of rhino section at Port Lympne,said:“Obviously we're all absolutely delighted to welcome another calf to our black rhino family.She's healthy,strong and already eager to play and explore.Her mother,Solio, is a first-time mum and she is doing a fantastic job.It's still a little too cold for them to go out into the open,but as soon as the weather warms up,I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing every day.”
The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve,but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild.The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg.His mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.

When I was 9,we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow , London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding,where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language.And my favorite:Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello.
It meant don't worry about it.Once,when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆),I fell onto the stones,damaging a nerve in my hand,and Toby came over,helping me up:Safe,man.Safe.A few minutes later,when I landed the trick,my friends beat their boards loud,shouting:“Safe! Safe!
Safe!”And that's what mattered - landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15,my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there,but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years,I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004,I found myself wandering down to Southbank,spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since,most recently this past spring.The day was
cold but clear；tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving(穿梭）among the
kids who rushed by on their boards,I found my way to the beam.Then a rail-thin teenager,in a
baggy white T-shirt,skidded(滑）up to the beam.He sat next to me.He seemed not to notice the
man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago,”I told him.Then, slowly,he began to nod his head.“Safe,man. Safe.”
“Yeah.”I said.“Safe.”
8.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?
A.He felt disappointed.
B.He gave up his hobby.
C.He liked the weather there.
D. He had disagreements with his family.
9.What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!”probably mean?
A.Be careful! B.Well done! C.No way! D.Don't worry!
10.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London?
A.To join the skateboarding.
B.To make new friends.
C.To learn more tricks.
D. To relive his childhood days.
11.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A.Children should learn a second language
B. Sport is necessary for children's health.

Who is a genius? This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.
Let's state clearly: Einstein was a genius,His face is almost the international symbol for
genius.But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself.Why is it that
some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us? And who are they?
In the sciences and arts,those praised as geniuses were most often white men.of European
origin .Perhaps this is not a surprise. I's said that history is written by the victors,and those
victors set the standards for admission to the genius club. When contributions were made by
geniuses outside the club --- women,or people of a different color or belief ---they were
unacknowledged and rejected by others.
A study recently published by Science found that as young as age six,girls are less likely than
boys to say that members of their gender(性别） are "really, really smart" Even worse,the study
found that girls act on that belief: Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are “really,really smart.”Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up?It doesn't take a genius to know the answer:absolutely not.
Here's the good news. In a wired world with constant global communication, we're all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear. And the more we look,the more we will see that social factors(因 素）like gender,race,and class do not 内容过长，仅展示头部和尾部部分文字预览，全文请查看图片预览。 y C.cautiously D. secretly

40.A. arrived B.worked C.ended D.disappeared
