the public spotlight.

We’re often told to follow our dreams, and one person in Canada has done just that after building a
wonderland for animals. In his own backyard, the eight water features which Robert Perkins dug into the ground
are now a shelter for birds, frogs, beavers (河狸) and other animals in the middle of suburban development. But for
Perkins, creating habitat for wildlife is not only about doing his part to help the environment. It’s a labor of love for
a woman he met when he was 16 years old.
Perkins met Rhonda in 1974 and the two of them hit it off. They both loved animals, and she always wished to
have a place where they could live in harmony with the land. Rhonda, whom Perkins stayed with all his life, passed
away in 2006. Perkins resolved to build a wonderland where her spirit could stay in peace.
Ignoring planning departments and neighbors alike, Perkins began digging large holes for water to flow. Over
the course of nine years his property went from being a neighborly headache to a perfect home for wildlife.
Perkins says he won’t take all the credit for the wetland he built. When Perkins started creating the wildlife
habitat in the early 2000s, a family of beavers got wind of it soon and claimed the land. “When we built our
subdivisions, we cleared all the trees, dried the hills, drove all the water down to the lakes... In turn, the beavers
helped dam (筑坝) and purify the water.”
Wetland habitats not only attract wildlife, but probably offer the most complete package of ecosystem services,
including preventing pollution, enriching the soil, and promoting the well-being of wildlife species.
Perkins says he doesn’t need to wonder what Rhonda might think of the place; he feels her presence whenever
he walks alone among the trees, the grass, and the ponds, looking at birds or beavers, and listening to the songbirds
and frogs. Perkins hopes his project will one day become an educational place that local people can visit to learn
about the importance of wetlands.
4. Why did Perkins build the water features?
A. To fulfill his childhood dream. B. To show his love for his wife.
C. To preserve endangered wildlife. D. To adapt to suburban development.
5. Which best describes Perkins’ wetland building process?
A. Effortless but creative. B. Discouraging but efficient.
C. Painful but influential. D. Demanding but rewarding.
6. What can we infer about building the wetland from Perkins’ words?
A. Perkins had a strategic plan for it. B. Human’s role in it was overvalued.
C. Nature itself also played a part in it. D. Beavers were invited to help with it.
7. What is Perkins’s expectation of the wetland?
A. To help spread his story. B. To be a recreational spot.
C
.
To bring economic value. D. To serve as an inspiration.

Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in
the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time:
“Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?”
To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies,
participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they
liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This
allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked.
Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression
they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy
their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”.
This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend
far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including
interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is
