You can see kangaroos everywhere in Australia. They appear on TV,in books and in the shops. The government even plans to put them on passports (護(hù)照) .Although it's the best loved animal in Australia,millions of kangaroos are killed every year. Why,people ask,do the Australians kill them? Quite simply,there are too many of them.
The number of kangaroos in Australia is believed to be 20〜25 million. It is as much as 7 million more than the number of people living in the country.
There are several reasons for the growth in the kangaroo numbers. There is plenty of water in the places where kangaroos live and many of the dingoes―dogs that like to kill and eat kangaroos,are not there any more.
Kangaroos also produce (繁殖) the young all the year round. When a female kangaroo gives birth (生育) ，she gets pregnant again immediately (馬上) .
The large number of kangaroos means some kangaroos don't get food to eat. They are so hungry that they break into farms and fight against other animals for food.
To solve the problem,the Australian government allows a certain number of kangaroos to be killed each year.
Many people don't think that it's right to kill kangaroos,but the government thinks that it is only helping the farmers.
Australia sells 5 million kilos of kangaroo meat every year―it is used to make hamburgers and meat for dogs.

One day,when some government officials were rebuilding a barn (谷倉) ，they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out,one after another. Then,everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up,they saw two mice squeezing (擠) out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts,the mice finally got out. However,it was strange that after they came out of the hole,they did not run away immediately. Instead,one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite (咬) the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled,so they stepped nearer to take a look. They found out that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything,and the other was trying to make the blind mouse bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
Seeing what was happening,everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time,the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about the two mice.
One serious American official said, "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of a king and his guard."The others thought for a while and said, "That was why!"
A smart Frenchman said , " I think the relationship between those two mice was that of a husband and his wife."Again the others thought for a while,and all felt it made sense.
A Japanese said, "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of a mother and her son. " Once again the others thought for a while,and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.
At that moment,one Chinese asked , " Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?"
Suddenly,the group looked at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official,the Frenchman and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame,and did not dare to answer.
In fact,the true love is not built on friendship,loyalty or blood relationship. Instead,it is based on no relationship.
( ) 1. Neither of the two mice ran away immediately because .

Making friends is a skill. Like most skills,it improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends,you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won't make friends staying home alone.
Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activity.
Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all,meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it's human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.
Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are giving an opinion about us―finding us too tall or too short,too this or too that. But don't forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept (接受) yourself as you are,and try to put the other person at ease (不拘束) .You'll both feel more comfortable.
Try to keep selfconfident (自信) even when you don't feel that way when you enter a room full of strangers,such as a new classroom. Walk tall (趾高氣揚(yáng)) and straight,and look directly at other people and smile.
If you see someone you'd like to speak to,say something. Don't wait for the other person to start a conversation.
Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person―friendship is based on each other's liking and "give and take". It takes time and efforts to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.
( ) 1. If you want to meet people and make friends,what should you do?
A. Join a club or a group.
B. Talk with those who like the same things.
C. Join someone in some activity.
D. All of the above.
( ) 2. In the sentence " After all,meeting strangers means facing the unknown. " ，the word "unknown" means .
A. things that are not known about B. without somebody liking
C. unfriendly D. unpleasant
( ) 3. How do you feel more comfortable when you are with new people?
A. Shake hands with others.
B. Accept yourself as you are,and put the other at ease.
C. Don't talk with those whom you don't like.
D. Walk tall and straight.
( ) 4. If you'd like to speak to someone,what should you do?
A. You should wait until the person says something.
B. You should stay home alone.
C. You should cough until the person notices you.
D. You should say something at first.
