It was Monday. Mrs. Smith's dog was hungry , but there was not any meat in the house. Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it "Give my dog half a pound of meat."Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently," Take this to the butcher( person whose job is selling meat)and he's going to give you your lunch today." Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher's. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady's handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.
At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more. The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers. But, the dog came again at four o'clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher's more surprise, it came for the third time at six o'clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper.

It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything.
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.
Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy's hand.
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops... and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride.

In a faraway area in northern Mexico, there lives a native Indian group called the Tarahumaras（塔拉乌马拉族）. Besides owning some cooking tools and farming equipment, the Tarahumaras exist much as they did before the Spanish arrived in the 1600s. They live in caves or in small houses made of stone and wood, and they eat what little they can grow on the dry land.
Ten years ago, linquist(语言学家) James Copeland entered the world of the Tarahumaras t study their language and culture. Since then, he has been visiting the Tarahumaras three or four times a year. Tarahumaras is not a written language, so part of Copeland’s project was to learn to speak Tarahumaras so that he could deal directly with the people. “There are no language police,” Copeland says. “Children are seldom corrected by their parents. They learn by observation of speech in conversations and by imitation.”
Copeland learned the language through his frequent exposure to it and by analyzing the grammar. His linguistic skills and mastery of German, Spanish, French and Russian, plus a partial knowledge of some twenty other languages, also helped. Drawing on his research, Copeland plans to produce a Tarahumara grammar book in English and perhaps one in Spanish.
The idea to study the Tarahumaras came to Copeland in 1984 when he discovered that very little research had been done on their language. He got in touch with a Tarahumaras Indian called Lornezo Gonzalez through a social worker who worked with the Tarahumaras in the border town of Juarez, Mexico. At first, Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agreed to help and took Copeland to his village. “Thanks to him, the Tarahumaras started trusting us and understood what we were doing.”
29. What can we learn about the Tarahumaras?
A. They have a strict education system.
B. They live a very simple and hard life.
C. They arrived in Mexico with the Spanish.
D. They are good at agriculture and architecture.
30. According to Copeland, learning Tarahumaras _____________.
A. is no easy task
B. is a waste of time
C. is very interesting
D. is useful for learning Spanish
31. Before Copeland learned Tarahumaras, he had ___________.
A. fully researched this language.
B. read a Tarahumaras grammar book
C. visited the Tarahumaras three times
D. asked a Tarahumaras Indian for help
32. The underlined word “reluctant” in the last paragraph probably means ____________.
A. ready B. anxious C. pleased D. unwilling
D
