2 . The Chinese paddlefish (白鲟) living in the Yangtze River was declared extinct (灭绝的), according to a paper from Chinese experts at the Yangtze River Fisheries Research Institute. Wei Qiwei, an author of the paper, says that the fish has not been seen in the wild since 2003, nor do artificially bred (人工繁殖) individuals exist.

The Chinese paddlefish is one of the world’s largest freshwater fishes, which can grow up to 7 metres long. People call it “the Giant Panda of Rivers” because it is rare and native to China under first-level national protection, and its ancestors date back to more than 100 million years ago.

From the middle of last century, the population of the Chinese paddlefish declined rapidly due to overfishing, habitat degradation (毁坏) and pollution. The construction of Gezhou Dam in 198l on the Yangtze River also created a barrier to the migrating (迁徙) fish, contributing to the sharp decline of it.

Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of the People’s Republic of China announced a 10-year fishing ban along key areas of the Yangtze River to protect biodiversity in the country’s longest waterway. It started to come into effect this year.

4 . Our mother has to leave home every day before we go to school. She has to walk twelve blocks to take the bus to work. We think it’s terrible that there is no bus that comes closer to our street.

I said to my mother, “This is a public transportation system. It is our system. It should come closer to our home. I do not want you to walk that far to get to the bus.” She agreed, but she said it would take more than one family to get the bus line to change. I told my mother I would ask my teacher about it. We could do a study and maybe start a petition (请愿书).

My teacher liked the idea. He said we could do the survey. So our class surveyed all our parents. We collected our survey data and made a table. We found that 90% of all the parents would use the bus more if it was easier to get to. We also found that only 20% of the parents could get to it easily, just by walking five blocks. For all the others, it took between 6 and 12 blocks.

We made a map to show how the bus route (路线) could be changed to reach people in our community more easily. Then my teacher called the alderman (市议员) to see if we could meet to talk about our study.

The alderman was impressed. She said we had done a really good job of thinking out the problem and a solution. She promised she would talk with the head of the transportation system about it.

True friends are hard to find. You often think you can believe in someone, but later he or she may let you down. However, always be a good friend yourself and you may change the situations.

    1    

Part of being a friend is being prepared to devote your time and energy to helping out your friend. If your friend needs a shoulder to cry on, just be there for him or her. You will attract those who value your loyalty.

    2    

When you say you will do something, do it. When your friend tells you a secret, keep it secret from others. Be someone that people know that they can rely on. If you show this quality to your friend, he or she will appreciate it and will be reliable in return.

Be a good listener.

Many people think they have to appear very interesting. Far more than that, however, is your ability to show that you’re interested in others. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them, ask questions about their interests, and take time to learn more about them.

    3    

Show others what makes you stand apart from the crowd. Talk about interests and hobbies. Everyone has interesting stories to tell—don’t be afraid to share yours. Besides, a little humour always keeps a conversation light and happy. People love to be around someone who makes them laugh.

A. Be a reliable friend.
B. Be loyal to a friend.
C. Stress your good qualities.
D. Tell your secret to your friend.
