By nature, Danny is a very calm person, so when I could almost feel his heartbeat through the phone line, I ran.When I got to the subway station, Danny was holding a light-brown-skinned baby, about a day old. The baby had been wrapped （被包裹）in an oversize black sweatshirt and left on the ground in a corner behind the gate.What neither of us knew, or could have assumed, was that Danny had not just saved an abandoned infant; he had found our son.Three months later, Danny appeared in family court to tell the story of finding the baby. Suddenly, the judge asked, “Would you be interested in adopting this baby?” The question surprised everyone in the courtroom, except Danny, who answered, simply, "Yes.”“But I know it's not that easy,“ he said.“Well, it can be J said the judge before giving orders to allow me to be a parent-to-be.My first reaction, when I heard, went something like, “Are you crazy? How could you say yes without asking me?In three years as a couple, we had never discussed adopting a child: I was an devoted playwright （居作家） working as a part-time word clerk. Danny was a respected yet wildly under-paid social worker. We had a roommate, who slept in our living room, to help pay the rent.We knew how many challenges couples usually faced when they want to have a baby. And while Danny had patience and selflessness, I didn't know how to change a diaper （尿布），let alone nurse a child. I didn't trust the social system and was sure there would be difficulties. Also, I couldn't handle parenthood. So I promised myself I wouldn't devote to itThe caretaker held the baby and then placed him in my arms. But when the baby stared up at me, with all the innocence and hope he showed to me, I, like Danny, completely fell for him.15. Why did the author rush to the subway station?A.

The Fish and Wildlife Service （FWS） today announced it is removing the songbird from the endangered species list.“The effort to recover the Kirtland's warbler is a successful example of how to save endangered species/9 said Margaret Everson, director of FWS. "The Kirtland's warbler has responded well to active management over the half century. In 1971, the Kirtland's warbler population declined to approximately 201 singing males and had habitats in only six counties. By 2015, the population reached 2,383 singing males and had spread geographically. FWS regularly noted the singing of male warblers during the breeding season made counting possible.“The negative factors fbr the development of the recovery plan have been dealt with；' said FWS. Modern wildfire suppression（扑灭）practices enabled the growth of the jack pine forests favored by the species, FWS noted. Michigan state has replanted approximately 90,000 acres of Kirtland's warbler habitat over the past 30 years. Timber（木材）incomes offset the cost of replanting jack pine needed to support a survivable bird population.But while the bird is falling off the ESA list, officials note that it remains a "conservation-dependent species”. Conservation of the Kirtland's warbler will continue to require an approach for carrying out future conservation work, like partnerships and enough financial support, FWS stated. Under the Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966, the Kirtland's warbler was officially listed as an endangered species in 1967.“This remarkable bird has a most impressive success story that illustrates effective conservation and cooperation at work," added Heather Good, executive director of Michigan Audubon. Shawn Graff, vice president of American Bird Conservancy's Great Lakes program, pointed out the delisting（除名）is "cause fbr celebration and proof that the Endangered Species Act works.”The passage is probably taken from.A. a fashion magazineB. a news reportC. a journalD. a novelWhat does the underlined word "offsef9 in paragraph 3 mean?A. Make up for.B. Add to.C. Fix.D. Prevent.33. Which of the following is NOT the reason fbr the recovery of Kirtland's warbler?A. Financial support.B. Cooperative work.C. The foundation of FWS.D. The control of wildlife.34. What can be concluded from the passage?A. The male Kirtland's warblers seldom sing in the breeding season.B. Heather Good was not very satisfied with the conversation work.C. The Kirtland's warbler was listed as an endangered species only in one state.D. Margaret Everson thought highly of the conservation of the Kirtland's warbler.DIf you want to make sure that you understand this story as fully as possible, you might consider printing the article and reading it on paper. That is one of the findings of a recent study of research done on the differences between paper and screen reading.Virginia Clinton carried out the research examination. Clinton looked at 33 past studies done between 2008 and 2018 that examined paper versus screen reading. Her examination found that reading from paper generally led to better understanding and improved a person's performance on tests connected to the reading material. And, she found no major differences in reading speed between the two. Such differences were notable only when the reading materials were expository texts or explanatory and based on facts. Clinton said she found no major difference when it came to narrative, fictional texts.Clinton also found that paper readers usually have a higher recognition of how well they have understood a text than screen readers. This skill is called metacognition. The word "cognition“ means the mental action of increasing knowledge and understanding. "Metacognition simply means thinking about one's own thinking.Clinton said, "We think that we're reading the story or the book better than we actually are. We think we understand what we are reading better than how we are actually reading." Yet, this inflated （夸大的）sense of understanding, or over-confidence, is especially common among screen readers.Clinton said there are many possible reasons for such findings. Over-confidence of screen readers, for example, could be the result of a less focused mind. Clinton said, “If you are enjoying the reading, you're going to be more concentrated. You're going to be paying better attention. Preferences are a key issue here.”Several studies have found that people often think of paper materials as more important and serious. "If you are reading from paper, your mind thinks, "This is something important. I need to pay attention to it'J Clinton said. Readers might connect computer screens with fun, less serious activities such as checking social media or watching Netflix. That, Clinton said, cou
