When the dog named Judy spotted her first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four-year-old dog set off racing after sleeping across several fields and, being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. The she ran along the edge of a cliff (悬崖），and fell 100feet , bouncing off a rock into the sea.
Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall, who turn up in seconds. Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her after a 90-minute search.
Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr.Holden returned from his holiday upset and convince his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she died in the most beautiful part of the country.
For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken. Then, one day the phone rang, and Steven Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holden if he would like his dog back.
A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.
The dog had initially been knocked unconscious ( 失去知觉的）but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff. “The dog was very thin and hungry, ” Steven Tregear said.”It was a very lucky dog. She survived by a plenty supply of fresh water,”he added.
It was ,as Mr.Holden admitted,”a minor miracle (奇迹）。”

The production of coffee beans is a huge,profitable business,but unfortunately, full-sun production is taking over the industry and bring a lot of damage. The change in how coffee is grown from shade-grown production to full-sun production endangers the very existence of certain animals and birds ,and even endangers the world’s ecological balance.
On a local level, the forests required by full-sun fields affects the area’s birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other spices (物种）that depends on the trees’ flowers and fruits. Full-sun growers destroy this forest home.As a result, many species are quickly dying out.
On a more global level, the destruction of the rain-forests for full-sun coffee fields also threatens (威胁）human life. Medical research often makes use of the forests’ plants and animal life and the destruction of such spices could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. Additionally,new coffee-growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world’s underground water.
Both locally and globally, the continued spread of full-sun coffee plantations (种植园）could mean the destruction of the rain-forest ecology. The loss of shade tree is already causing a slight change in the world’s climate,and studies show the loss of oxygen-giving trees also leads to air pollution and global warming.Moreover, the new growing techniques
Are contributing to acid(酸性的）soil conditions.
It’s obvious that the way much coffee is grown affects many aspects of life, from local environment to global ecology. But consumers do have a choice. They can purchase shade-grown coffee whenever possible, although at a higher cost. The future health of the planet and mankind is surely worth more than an expensive cup of coffee.
54. What can we learn about the full-sun coffee production from Paragraph 4?
A. It limits the spread of new growing techniques.
B. It leads to air pollution and global warming.
C. It slows down the loss of shade trees.
D. It improve local soil conditions.

Parents who help their children with homework may actually be bring down their school grades.Other forms of parental involvement, including volunteering at school and observing a child’s class,also fails to help,according to the most recent study on the topic.
The findings challenge a key principle of modern parenting (养育子女）where schools expect them to act as partners in their children’ s education. Previous generation concentrated on getting children to school on time,fed, dressed and ready to learn.
