Dr. Ellen Bronson of the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore alw ays w anted to w ork w ith animals. Unlike many animal-loving little girls, though, her first idea w as to be a naturalist. If a naturalist is someone w ho sits in the w oods and observes an imals and takes notes, then that’s exactly w hat she w as doing at the time. Dr. Bronson grew up “in the middle of now here”, and her parents didn’t let her w atch TV. “So I spent a lot of time hanging out in the w oods because there w as not a lot to do otherw ise,” she says. “I had a funny notebook that my parents still have, w here each page is about a certain animal.”

When she got a little older, being an animal doctor seemed like a better choice than w orking w ith animals in the forest,

and the success in giving medical help to them satisfied her hugely, but she says that even the cases that don’t w ork out as w ell can be meaningful. “You also have the failures, w hich are hard at the time, but they help not just you but the w hole zoo learn,” She says.

And, of course, another advantage of the job is getting to w ork w ith really cool animals. “I really like the animals that

feed on meat — they’re very tough, and you can get them through hard times,” she says.

Finally, another advantage of her job is how often she gets to w ork w ith an animal over its life. “We’re there doing medical examination w hen they’re born, w e w atch them grow up,” she says. “And w e w atch them as they age. We help them age peacefully and help them be pain-free, and then w e’re also there w hen they die. That is something very special.”

25. What can w e learn from the second paragraph?

A. Giving animals medical help is alw ays Ellen’s dream.

B. Even failures can also mean something to Ellen. C. Failures in w ork are hard for Ellen to accept.

D. Observing animals gives Ellen greater satisfaction.

26. In her w ork w ith animals, she can .

A. earn fame and respect from her w ork.

B. realize her dream of becoming a naturalist.

C. take care of many animals from birth to death.

D. keep all the animals in peace and free from pain.

27. Which of the follow ing best describes Dr. Bronson?

A. Generous. B. Well-educated. C. Grateful. D. Caring.

C

Once w hen I w as facing a decision that involved high risk, I w ent to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then

w rote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had: Be bold and brave – and mighty (强大的) forces w ill come to your aid.

Those w ords made me see clearly that w hen I had fallen short in the past, it w as seldom because I had tried and failed. It w as usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand, w henever I had plunged into deep w ater, forced by courage or circumstance, I had alw ays been able to sw im until I got my feet on the ground again.

Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you are sure you c an eat. And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential pow ers w e possess: energy, skill, sound judgment, creative ideas – even physical strength greater than most of us realize.

Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, w as an excellent football player, even though he w eighed much less than the average player. “In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, w ho had nothing but me betw een him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I w as

so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet ( 子弹) – and stopped him cold.”

Boldness – a w illingness to extend yourself to the extreme – is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely, there w ill be setbacks ( 挫折) and disappointments

in life; boldness in itself is no guarantee of success. But the person w ho tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person w ho tries to do nothing and succeeds.

So, alw ays try to live a little bit beyond your abilities – and you’ll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.

28. Why w as the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?

A. He faced huge risks. B. He lacked mighty forces.

C. Fear prevented him from trying. D. Failure blocked his w ay to success.
