The first time a tortoise walked through my hut at Middle Camp on Aldabra Atoll, I was amazed. I grabbed my
camera and carefully positioned myself to take this wildlife encounter. The second time: same thing. The third time:
I picked up my phone and took a snapshot. By the fourth or fifth time, I didn’t even look when I felt something
bump into me. I knew what it was.
I was there to shoot a story about island restoration in the Seychelles, far off the east coast of Africa in the
Indian Ocean. Until roughly the middle of the past century, the small island nation showed signs of real
environmental killing — local vegetation — cleared to make way for coconut plantations, foreign rats and mice
running uncontrolled, native sea turtles and giant tortoises being exploited. Biodiversity seemed destroyed. But then
the country experienced a shift in conservation awareness — and the giant Aldabra tortoises are among its most
visible signs.
Every morning when I woke up and walked outside the hut, I had to remind myself that I hadn’t traveled back
in time. I could see flightless Aldabra rails, coconut crabs the size of dinner plates, and giant tortoises — roughly
four feet long and weighing up to 550 pounds — just wandering around. The number of sharks in the bay was
crazy. Frigatebirds and boobies (鲣鸟) nested in the mangroves (a kind of tree). When we left our hut doors open,
which we often did to let in air, the tortoises would walk right through.
In the late afternoon or early evening, whenever they’d finished eating, the tortoises would drop themselves
down and fall asleep with their heads outstretched. That made nighttime trips to the outhouse perilous. To get there,
we’d have to go 200 feet into the mangroves, negotiating what I called the tortoise slalom trail.
It was a track without a pattern, because of course they picked different places to sleep every night. Avoiding
them was important: Falling headfirst over a tortoise onto the sharp coral rock could lead to serious injury on an
island far from medical facilities.
Nothing was easy on Aldabra, and much of it was insanely difficult. Yet living among the tortoises in this
primordial place, in one of the last spots where reptiles still rule, was one of the happiest times of my life.
4. How did the author feel about his final meeting with the tortoise in his room?
A. Calm B. Excited C. Concerned D. Disturbed
5. What made the wildlife on the island suffer during the last century?
A. Introducing foreign species. B. Killing too many rats and mice.
C. Planting lots of coconut trees. D. Repairing the building on the island.
6. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?
A. To stress the importance of their work. B. To introduce how large the tortoises are.
C. To present his daily routine on the island. D. To show how the wildlife is diverse on the island.
7. What might be the suitable title for this passage?
A. Island fills with curious tourists. B. Aldabra calls for wildlife protection.
C. Tortoises rule on this isolated island again. D. Efforts are made to protect the environment.
C
A child’s early years of language development are important for the basics of school readiness, such as literacy
(读写) skills and social and emotional growth. In a recent study, University of Miami Assistant Professor of
Psychology Lynn Perry and a team of fellow researchers who examined child speech communications over the
course of a year found that children benefit from conversations with their peers (同龄人) and their teachers. The
study examined how language use and development in 2-and 3-year-old children was influenced by what they
heard from their teachers and their peers.
